Falling in Building with I’ve found a Friend who is all to me and Earthly ties are breaking, breaking

I’ve found a Friend who is all to me,
His love is ever true;
I love to tell how He lifted me,
And what His grace can do for you.

He saves me from ev’ry sin and harm,
Secures my soul each day;
I’m leaning strong on His mighty arm;
I know He’ll guide me all the way.

When poor and needy, and all alone,
In love He said to me,
“Come unto Me and I’ll lead you home,
To live with Me eternally.”

Chorus
Saved by His pow’r divine,
Saved to new life sublime!
Life now is sweet and my
Joy is complete, for I’m
Saved, saved, saved!

J. P. Scholfield
Earthly ties are breaking, breaking,
Sundered as the years roll on;
Fondest hopes are waning, waning,
Gliding from us one by one.
Chorus
There’s nothing abiding but heav’n alone,
But heav’n alone;
Our treasures with Jesus we’ll find by and by,
Yes, we’ll find by and by.

Jesus’ work is calling, calling,
Few the earnest call obey;
Faithful souls are toiling, toiling,
Lab’ring while ‘tis called today.
Chorus
There’s nothing abiding but heav’n alone,
But heav’n alone;
If working for Jesus we’ll rest by and by,
Yes, we’ll rest by and by.

Earthly toils are ceasing, ceasing,
Toilers homeward wend their way;
Angel bands are flying, flying,
Bearing them to realms of day.
Chorus
There’s nothing abiding but heav’n alone,
But heav’n alone;
If dying for Jesus we’ll live by and by,
Yes, we’ll live by and by.

Earthly scenes are fading, fading,
Christian! upward turn thine eye;
Heav’nly beams are bright’ning, bright’ning,
We shall reign with Him on high.
Chorus
There’s nothing abiding but heav’n alone,
But heav’n alone;
If suff’ring with Jesus we’ll reign by and by,
Yes, we’ll reign by and by.
