I am very happy for my friend and hymn/songwriter and collaborator Colin Gordon-Farleigh who has successfully launched a new career as a country singer in Nashville, USA. In the last year, his songs have been winning numerous number one slots and awards. Together we have produced two bluegrass hymns for congregational singing – Oh lead us by the hand Lord and I can hear the Saviour calling as well as more traditional hymns that can be found here.
He has just launched a brand new album “Second Chances” – please like and share!
Oh, lead us by the hand, Lord, And take us to the river; O-ho, help us, dearest Saviour, Across to the other side. Oh, we will walk beside you, We’ll follow in your footsteps, O-ho, right down to the river, Then cross to the other side. Yes, we’ll cross over Jordan, Into the promised land; Yes, we’ll cross over Jordan, When our Saviour holds our hand.
Oh, lead us, dearest Jesus, Without a tear or sigh; To that promised Land of Glory, And the sweet bye and bye. Oh, we’ll cross over Jordan, So we can praise our Lord; O-ho, raise our hands in worship, Reap the promise of His Word. We’ll cross over Jordan, Into the promised land; Yes, we’ll cross over Jordan, When our Saviour holds our hand
I can hear the Saviour calling, Calling gently, far and near; I can hear the words so clearly, “Won’t you come and shelter here?” On my heart the words are falling, Speaking gently to my soul; Like the lambs, I hear my Shepherd, “Won’t you come and be made whole?”
I will come to you, Lord Jesus, To the shelter of your arm, Where You go then I will follow, With no fear, I’m safe from harm. I can hear the words He’s saying, Hear them clearly in my heart. I am praying and am listening Jesus knows us from the start.
(Instrumental Interlude)
I can hear the Saviour calling, Calling gently far and near; I can hear the words so clearly, “Won’t you come and shelter here?” I will come to you, Lord Jesus, To the shelter of your arm; Where You go then I will follow, Knowing that I’m safe from harm.
