Ki n f'oro Re ni wakati iku Se'mole mi, si toka si orun B'aye ti n koja, kile orun mo Ni yiye, ni kiku, wa ba mi gbe. Source: YBH 599 Abide with me; fast falls the eventide; The darkness deepens; Lord with me abide. When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. Swift to its close ebbs out life’s little day; Earth’s joys grow dim; its glories pass away; Change and decay in all around I see; O Thou who chan

Saviour, like a shepherd lead us, Much we need Thy tender care; In Thy pleasant pastures feed us, For our use Thy folds prepare. Blessed Jesus, blessed Jesus! Thou hast bought us, Thine we are. Blessed Jesus, blessèd Jesus! Thou hast bought us, Thine we are. We are Thine, Thou dost befriend us, Be the guardian of our way; Keep Thy flock, from sin defend us, Seek us when we go astray.

By Alexcenah Thomas Olusaguntan ni n pe mi Kuro nin'aginju ese O n paguntan to sako lo Jina rere sinu agbo Mu won wa, mu won wa Mu won wa kuro loko ese Mu won wa, mu won wa Masako wa sodo Jesu Ran Olusaguntan lowo Lati wa'aguntan Re to nu Mu awon to nu pada wa Sin'agbo kuro lotutu Gbo igbe won nin'aginju Ati lori oke giga Gb'Olusaguntan n wi fun o "Lo mu aguntan mi wole." Hark! ’tis the Shepherd’s voice I hear Out in the desert dark and drear, Calling the sheep who’ve gone astray Far from the Shepherd’s fold away. Bring them in, bring them in, Bring them in from the fields of sin; Bring them in, bring them in, Bring the wand’ring ones to Jesus. Who’ll go and help this Shepherd kind, Help Him the wand’ring ones to find? Who’ll bring the lost ones to the fold, Where they’ll be sheltered from the cold? Out in the desert hear their cry, Out on the mountains wild and high; Hark! ’tis the Master speaks to thee, “Go

YO AWON TI N SEGBE

By Fanny J Crosby Yo awon ti n segbe, sajo eni n ku Fanu ja won kuro ninu ese Ke fawon ti n sina, gbeni n subu ro So fun won pe Jesu le gba won la Yo awon ti n segbe, sajo eni n ku Alaanu ni Jesu, Yio gbala. Bi won o tile gan An, sibe O n duro Lati gb'omo to ronupiwada Sa fitara ro won, si ro won jeje On o dariji, bi won ba gbagbo Refrain Yo awon ti n segbe,--ise tire ni Oluwa yio f'agbara fun o; Fi suuru ro won, pada sona tooro So fasako p'Olugbala ti ku. Refrain Rescue the perishing, care for the dying, Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep o’er the erring one, lift up the fallen, Tell them of Jesus, the mighty to save. Rescue the perishing, care for the dying, Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save. Though they are slighting Him, still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive; Plead with them earnestly, plead with them gently; He will forgive if they only believe. Down in the human heart, crushed by the tempter

Grace ! 'tis a charming sound, Harmonious to the ear ; Heaven with the echo shall resound, And all the earth shall hear. Saved by grace alone; This is all my plea- Jesus died for all mankind, And Jesus died for me. 'Twas grace that wrote my name In life's eternal book; 'Twas grace that gave me to the Lamb, Who all my sorrows took. Grace taught my wandering feet To tread the heavenly road ; And new supplies each hour I meet, While pressing on to God. Grace taught my s
