A powerful ballad from the old Nazarene hymnal about the Holy Spirit. Great song for Pentecost!

This is a rare holiness tune by an old Nazarene writer and pastor J. Glenn Gould. This song proclaims the 'second blessing' of sanctification and compares it to the Israelites' crossing the river Jordan to the promised land by faith.

A great old holiness tune by none other than Lelia Morris (who wrote 'Holiness Unto the Lord'). This song calls us to keep the banner of holiness proudly flying. A rousing anthem for all churches, reminding us of our great call to proclaim full and free salvation to all!

The great old holiness writer Lelia Morris (famous for writing "Holiness Unto the Lord") penned this marvelous song about always being ready to serve or go where God send”.

An upbeat song about spiritual warfare is the next Canaan Melody from the old 1914 Pentecostal Church of the Nazarene hymnal. Great words here about being redeemed and freed by Jesus, and going to tell his salvation all over the world as we march to glory! Enjoy and be inspired by this one.

Song 20 in the old 1914 Nazarene hymnal is the classic hymn by Rev. Robert Lowrey based on Revelation 22:1-12, looking ahead to the day when we "gather with the saints at the river that flows by the throne of God". A wonderful song of hope for us as we await that day!

Song 19 is the Canaan Melodies hymnal is a wistful hymn about longing for Jesus to come again. It reminds of how my Gran would look into the skies and say “is today the day, Lord?” But the song reminds us too that while we wait for Him, we must be faithful and tell of his love.

Frances Ridley Havergal's famous poem of consecration made it into the Church of the Nazarene's 1914 "Canaan Melodies" hymnal. This version includes a refrain written by the great hymnwriter William J Kirkpatrick. I changed the beat a little to give it an upbeat pop-rock feel, with the help of my CrossRoad bandmates. Hope this will inspire you to make your entire consecration to the Lord!

This upbeat song of thankful praise will surely get you in a good mood today, singing "hallelujah, hallelujah, I am walking in His presence satisfied!" The CrossRoad guys join me to really rock it. Be blessed in His name as you listen.

I imagine this song was so exciting when it came out at the turn of the century - comparing prayer to a telephone line to heaven! The words still ring true today: God's line is always open for us to talk with Him.

This song I didn't know. It equates the sanctified life with the land of Beulah prophesied in Isaiah - a "blessed blessed land of light, where the flowers bloom forever and the sun is always bright"! There are great words in here about handling life's struggles with faith too. I have come to really love singing this!

A lovely holiness song! Based on Hebrews 7:25 - "he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him" - this song is very easy to sing and celebrates God's full salvation in our lives. It reminds me a little of "Blessed Assurance" in its feel. I think it would work well in our churches today still.

Song 13 in the Church of the Nazarene's 1914 "Canaan Melodies" hymnal is a favourite for many. A sweet and happy song about trusting Jesus. I tried an a capella style based on Billy Joel's "The Longest Time".

A great upbeat song about the effect of God's love in the heart of a person. What great words! I kept the melody the same but changed the time signature from a waltz to an upbeat 4/4 - it seemed happier this way!

A wonderful old hymn about the joys that await in heaven. Much of the imagery is taken from Revelation 21 and 22 - jasper walls, trees of life bearing fruit, the river flowing from the throne, Jesus holding our crowns in his hands. Wonderful stuff, and a beautiful wistful melody. This one will speak to your soul!

This is a stunning hymn about the saving grace of Jesus! My bandmates and I gave it a real mellow acoustic feel.

My CrossRoad band mates helped me rock up this old hymn a bit. What a great song of praise and worship that we can still sing with joy today!

A beautiful song about the glorious future that God's children will enjoy in his presence in heaven. What a wonderful day that will be!

This powerful song was probably used during altar calls in the early days. It is a call to turn to God because time is short! A lovely song and one that is still fitting for us today.
