Songs of Brother Branham
|
ONLY BELIEVE
Only believe,
only believe, All things are possible, only believe; Only believe... Look which
way? To Jesus. Doctors has failed. Everything else has failed. "But this
is My beloved Son. Hear ye Him." What did He say? He said, "Hear ye
Him." What did He say? What did He say? Only believe. Why all things are
possible. Fear not, little flock, From the cross to the throne, From death
into life He went all alone; His... All power in earth, all power above, Is
given to Him for the flock of His love. All power for sickness, everything,
given to Him. On... (Hear ye Him. Only Believe.) Only believe, All things... ONLY
BELIEVE It's been my
theme song. It's been sang in many different languages in different parts of
the world. It's called me to the platform for the past ten years, I guess.
Only believe; all things are possible, if you can only believe. Now, have
faith; have faith in God and believe with all your heart while we sing slowly
now, altogether. Only believe, only believe,
All things are possible, only believe; Only believe, only
believe, All things are possible,
only believe. I wonder if the audience would do this for me. Let's just close
our eyes now, and raise up our hands, and say, "Now, I believe." Now, I believe, now, I believe, All things
are possible, now, I believe; Now, I believe, now, I believe, All things are possible, now, I believe. THE LIFE
BOAT SOON IS COMING
... ness Will turn to brightest day, Then let us all take courage, For we're
not left alone; The lifeboat soon is coming
To gather the pilgrims home. Then cheer, my brother cheer, oh
cheer, Our trials shall soon be o'er, Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet,
Upon the golden shore. We're pilgrim's and we're strangers here, We're
seeking a city to come, The lifeboat soon is coming To gather the Jewels
home. The lifeboat soon is coming, By eyes of faith I see, As she sweeps
through the waters To rescue you and me. And land us safely in the port With
friends we love so dear, "Get ready," cries the Captain, "Oh,
look, she's almost here." (Watch the atomic bombs...?...) ... cheer, Our
trials shall soon be o'er, Our loved ones we shall meet, shall meet, Upon the
golden shore. We're pilgrims and we're strangers here, We're seeking a city
to come, Our lifeboat soon is coming To gather the Jewels home. |
MY
FAITH LOOKS UP TO THEE
"My Faith Looks
Up To Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary." And while we stand and sing it, let's
shake hands with each other and say, "God bless you." My faith
looks up to Thee, (God bless you...?... God bless you...?... God bless you,
brother.) .. Divine; Now... Heavenly Father, bless...?... Amen.... wholly
Thine! Now, let's raise our hands to Him. My faith looks up to Thee, Thou
Lamb of Calvary, Savior Divine; Now hear me while I pray, Take all my guilt
away, O let me from this day Be wholly Thine! Till we meet!...
Let's sing "Till We Meet Again." Everybody now join. Till we meet!
till we meet! Till we meet at Jesus' feet; Till we meet! till we meet! God be
with you till we meet again! Till we meet! till we meet! Till we meet at
Jesus' feet; (till we meet!) Till we meet! till we meet! God be with you till
we meet again! Let us bow our heads now. |
WONDERFUL<
WONDERFUL JESUS IS TO ME
Oh, wonderful,
wonderful, Jesus is to me, Counselor,
Prince of Peace, Mighty God is He;
Saving me, keeping me from all sin and shame, Wonderful is my Redeemer, praise His
name! Oh, wonderful, wonderful, Jesus
is to me, Counselor, Prince of Peace,
Mighty God is He; Oh, saving me,
keeping me from all sin and shame, Wonderful is my Redeemer, praise His
name! I once was lost, now I'm found,
free from condemnation, Jesus gives
liberty and a full salvation; Saving
me, keeping me from all sin and shame,
Oh, wonderful is my Redeemer, praise His name! Oh, wonderful,
wonderful, Jesus (Sing it, everyone now. Lift it up.) Counselor, Prince of Peace, Mighty God is
He; Oh, saving me, keeping me from all sin and shame, Wonderful is my Redeemer, praise His
name! Oh, wonderful, wonderful,
(Raise up your hands when you... ) me,
Counselor, Prince of Peace, Mighty God is He; Oh, saving me, keeping me from all sin and
shame, Wonderful is my Redeemer,
praise His name! |
NATIONS ARE
BREAKING
(That's right?)
Nations are breaking; Israel's awakening; The signs that our Bible foretold,
And the Gentile days numbered, (Sodom.) With horrors encumbered; Return, O
dispersed, to your own. The day of redemption is near, Man's hearts are
failing in this fear. Be filled with God's Spirit, Have your lamps trimmed
and clear. (So you can see the Word of the hour.) Look up, your redemption is
near. False prophets are lying, (They said they'd be here: anointed ones.)
God's Truth they're denying. That Jesus the Christ is our God. (That's...
They don't believe it. The Bible said there'd be that thing here. Here it
is.) But we'll walk where the apostles have trod. (Same Light... And restore
the faith of the fathers to the children.) The day of redemption is near, (So
near.) Man's hearts are failing for fear. (The earth's dropping in.) Oh, be
filled with God's Spirit, Have your lamps trimmed and clear. Look up, your
redemption is near. You believe that? Let us bow our heads then. |
IT
SHALL BE LIGHT
It shall be
Light about the evening time; The path to Glory you will surely find; In the water
way is the Light today, Buried in the precious Name of Jesus. Young and old
repent of all your sins; The Holy Ghost will surely enter in; The evening
Lights have come; It is the facts that God in Christ are One. FOOTPRINTS
ON THE SANDS OF TIME
Twilight and
evening star, And after that the dark! May there be no sadness of farewell,
When I'm at last embarked; For all without is borne of time and space, And
the floods may bear me far, But I want to see my Pilot face to face When I've
crossed the bar. Tell me not, in mournful numbers, That life is just an empty
dream! And the soul is dead that slumbers, And things are not what they seem.
Yea, life is real! And life is earnest! And the grave is not its goal; For
dust thou art, to dust returnest, Was not spoken of the soul. Lives of great
men all remind us, And we can make our lives sublime, And, partings, leave
behind us, Footprints on the sands of time; Footprints, that perhaps another,
While sailing over life's solemn main, A forlorn and shipwrecked brother, In
seeing, shall take heart again. Let us be up, then, and doing, With a heart
for any strife; Be not like dumb, driven cattle! Be a hero in the... I LOVE HIM
Until we meet,
let us stand and sing: I love Him, I love Him Because He first loved me, And
purchased my salvation On Calvary's tree. Now, reverently shake hands with
somebody in back of you, front of you, and at the side. I love Him,
(everybody, now) I love Him Because He first loved me, And purchased my
salvation On Calvary's tree. Now, with your hands up to God, real loud now,
everybody make it ring. I love Him, I love Him Because He first loved me, And
purchased m salvation On Calvary's tree. Let's bow our head now. Till we
meet, till we meet, Till we meet at Jesus' feet; (Remember, many of us will
never meet again till then.) Till we meet, till we meet, God be with you till
we meet again. Now, hum it. EVERY
PROMISE IN THE BOOK IS MINE
Every promise in
the Book is mine, Every chapter,
every verse, every line. I am
trusting in His heart divine, Every
promise in the Book is mine. All you sick people now that's going to be
prayed for, sing it with me. Every
promise in... (Raise your hand.) is mine,
Every chapter, every verse, every line. I am trusting in His Word
divine, Every promise in the Book is mine. What do we have to do? Only believe, only believe, (That's all
you have to do.) All things are
possible, only believe. |
Let's just sing a
little hymn now. This is worship. We had to cut just a little short, but this
is a worship. Now, let's get real quiet and sing, "There is a fountain
filled with blood, drawn from Immanuel's veins." Just worship as you sing
it. Oh, I just love this song. There is
a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel's veins, And sinners plunged beneath that flood, Lose
all their guilty stain. Lose all their
guilty stain, Lose all their guilty stain;
And sinners plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stain.
But I--I know I'm going to be over it. It's done. It's finished, and
I'm going to be well. And I was thinking as Ernie sang that song a few moments
ago, "On the Wings of a Dove." How is the melody to that? Start it
for me, Ernie. ... wings... snow-white dove, (sing it with me) God sent down
His pure, sweet love, Was a sign from above, On the wings of a dove. I
understand Ernie made two verses of that. I'm going to make you three verses:
Noah had drifted On the floods many days, He searched for land, In various
ways; Troubles he had some, But not from above, For God gave him His sign On
the wings of a dove. On the wings of a snow-white dove, God sends down His
pure, sweet love, Was a sign from above, On the wings of a dove. Jesus, our
Saviour Came to earth one day; He was born in a stable, In a manger of hay;
Though here rejected, But not from above, For God gave us His sign On the wings
of a dove. On the wings of a snow-white dove, God sends down His pure, sweet
love, Oh, a sign from above, On the wings of a dove. Though I have suffered In
many a way, I cried for healing Both night and day; But faith wasn't forgotten
By the Father above, He gave me His sign On the wings of a dove. On the wings
of a snow-white dove, God sends down His pure, sweet love, Oh, a sign from
above, On the wings of a dove. On the wings of a snow-white dove, God sends
down His pure, sweet love, A sign from above, On the wings of a dove.
216 Dear God, I thank You for these things,
Father. You give Noah the sign; You gave the world the sign, and You gave me a
sign. And the next day, seeing that eagle flying, O God, there's a Message
coming forth now, and I pray, God, that You'll let the Dove lead. Grant it,
Lord. It's led me to a faith I never had before. I know, God; I know it's going
to be all right; so I thank You for it, Father. And tonight, send down Your
Message again, Lord, on the wings of the Dove of the Word. Grant it, dear
heavenly Father. And every one that passes through this platform tonight, and
out yonder in the meetings across the country, may Your great Dove of faith
fall into their hearts and give them faith, Lord, for their healing. Remember
that God is not a respect of person. He could send the Message to Noah, could
send It to John the Baptist, could send It to me, can send It to others. I pray
that that Dove will fly into every heart right now, Lord, with Its little,
golden beak, and whisper that, "By His stripes... By all My wounds and
stripes you are healed." God, grant that our transgressions will be
blotted out, our iniquities will be forgiven us, and that our sickness will be
healed. It's in Your hands, Father. In Jesus Christ's Name. Amen.
QUESTIONS AND
ANSWERS 64-0823E 1056-287 I like that song, "They Come From the
East and West." How many knows it? I don't know as I know it, but I think
I know a verse. You might pick it up, sister. I don't know whether you... Oh,
they come from the East and West; They come from the land afar, To feast with
our King, To dine as His guests, How blessed these pilgrims are. Oh, beholding
His hallowed face, Aglow with love divine; Blest partakers of His grace, As
gems in His crown to shine. Oh, Jesus is coming soon; Our trials will then be
o'er. Oh, what if our Lord this moment should come For those who are free from
sin. Oh, then would it bring you joy, Or sorrow and deep despair? When the Lord
in Glory comes, We'll meet Him up in the air. You like that? Let's try it
again. Oh, they'll come from the East and West; Oh, they come from the land

trials will then be o'er. Oh, what if our Lord this moment should come For
those who are free from sin. Oh, then would it bring you joy, Or sorrow and
deep despair? When our Lord in Glory comes, We'll meet Him up in the air. How
many wants to meet Him up there? Oh, my. Oh, Jesus is coming soon; (Just close
your eyes and imagine you hear the trumpet sound.) Our troubles will then be
o'er. Oh, what if our Lord this moment should come For those who are free from
sin. Oh, then would it bring you joy, Or sorrow and deep despair? When our Lord

break day for you one of these mornings. I didn't see just where it went, but
it looked good. Amen. You've a long, long time, brother, it'll come back. And
like bread upon the water will return to you someday. That's right. All right.
Oh, you love Him? My faith looks up to Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Oh, Saviou
divine. Now hear me while I pray, Take all my sins away, Nor let me ever stray
from Thee aside. While life's dark maze I tread, And griefs around me spread,
Be Thou my Guide, Bid darkness turn to day, Wipe sorrow's fears away, Oh, let
me from this day be wholly Thine. (Don't you love that?) My faith looks up to
Thee, Thou Lamb of Calvary, Oh, Saviour divine. Now hear me while I pray, Take
all my sin away; Nor let me ever stray from Thee aside. Blest be the tie that
binds (Oh, my.) Our hearts in Christian love; The fellowship of kindred minds
Is like to that above. Before our Father's throne We pour our ardent prayer;
Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, Our comforts and our cares. But when we
asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall still be joined in heart,
And hope to meet again. Sister Wilson, you remember about thirty-three or
thirty-five years ago in a little house meeting we'd hold one another's hands?
I knowed you remember that. Oh, let's just reach over now and take somebody by
the hand. Blest be the tie that binds Our heart in Christian love; The
fellowship of kindred mind Is like to that above. Before our Fathers' throne We
pour our ardent prayer; Our fears, our hopes, our aims are one, Our comforts
and our cares. When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall still
be joined in heart, And hope to meet again. Do you love one another? Little
children, love one another. Till we meet, till we meet, Till we meet at Jesus'
feet; Till we meet, till we meet, God be with you till we meet again. You love Him? Isn't He wonderful? You love
one another? Reach around, say something to one another. Say, "God bless
you, brother. Bless you, sister." They're listening at us tonight across
the river yonder, Sister Wilson. I can just see old Brother Seward walking the
floor, clapping his hands. I seen our brother back there with the beard on his
face raise up his hands, praising God; I thought of Brother Ryan, how he used
to set right along there in the old tabernacle with his beard long like that.
He's listening tonight across the portals of glory, a dear old saint. Isn't He
wonderful? Take the Name of Jesus with you, Child of sorrow and of woe; It will
joy and comfort give you, Oh, take it everywhere you go. Precious Name, O how
sweet! Hope of earth and joy of Heaven, Precious Name, O how sweet! Hope of
earth and joy of Heaven. Now, you take the Name of Jesus with you. (What for?)
As a shield from every snare. (What happens?) When temptations 'round you
gather, Breathe that holy name in prayer. Precious Name, (Precious Name) (O how
sweet!) Hope of earth and joy of Heaven; Precious Name, O how sweet! Hope of
earth and joy of Heaven.
I surrender all, All to
Thee, my blessed Saviour, I surrender
all. E-94 "I will give You all that I am, all that I've got, all my
pride; everything I have, I surrender here at the altar to You. Just be
merciful to me, dear God. I want my tears to wash away the stain. I want Your
Blood to wash away my stain." What will do it? Nothing but the Blood of
Jesus. Won't you come while we wait just a little longer 'cause I feel
constrained. You know I'm not a fanatic. You know that. But I do feel that
there's more people in here ought to be standing around this altar right now. E-95
Backslider, what about you? You're away from God. If you die, you're
lost. Come on. This is your time. Come in; there's room for you. Won't you
come? We sing once more now, while we sing, "I Surrender All," will
anyone else come at this time? All right.
I surrender all, I surrender
all, All to Thee, my blessed
Saviour, I surrender all. I surrender all. I surrender all. All to
Thee, my blessed Saviour, I surrender
all. I... (Will you do it?) [Brother
Branham asks people to come to the altar while congregation sings--Ed.]...?...
Come on...?... the blessing of Holy Spirit, come on. All to Thee, My blessed Saviour,
I surrender all. Are you finished? You're sure? Is there some more here
just now.
Let's sing "Just As I Am," sister; give us the chord there. "Just as I
am," no matter what you've done.
Just as I am, without one plea, That Thy Blood was shed for me, And that Thou bidd'st me come to Thee, O Lamb of God, I come! I come! Let us stand
while we sing that. Come on now right down the aisle. ... as I am, without one
plea, But that Thy blood... (Will you
come right now?) Was shed... (Come right down to the altar...?... Come right on
down. Oh, come.) Thou bidd'st me come
to Thee, O Lamb of God, I come! I
come! Just as I am, and waiting not
(Listen!) To rid my soul... (How many?)
of one dark blot, To Thee, whose blood
can cleanse each spot, O Lamb of God, I come! I come! Slowly, now, sister. Let
us bow our heads now as we hum this. [Brother Branham begins to hum--Ed.] Our
heavenly Father, around this altar just now lines many sinners. They're bowing
at the feet of the Lord Jesus. You said, "No man can come to Me, except My
Father draws him. And all that come, I'll give them Everlasting Life, and raise
them up at the last days." You promised it, Lord. Many of them are
standing here, just like that poor prostitute that stood at Your feet, doing a
service to You, Lord. And then, You, turned and looked at her and said,
"Thy sins, which were many, are all forgiven." You're no respect of person.
You'll do the same for them, Lord. I pray that You'll grant it tonight.
Many more out there in the--off the altar, Lord, that should be
here tonight giving their souls down here; they got away from God; they've got
starchy and got indifferent. They just got formal and got away from You. They
seen You this week come into the city, do signs and wonders and miracles to
prove that You've raised from the dead. You're standing here tonight with
outstretched arms. You're--You're tearing my heart to pieces, God, when I think
of You. You're stand here, begging and pleading to the people. O God, I don't know what's the matter with
me tonight. But I pray, God, that ever who it is in here You're calling too,
that they'll not go out of here without finding You tonight. My heart is
burdened deeply for some reason; I don't know. I pray, dear Jesus, once more, I
call. Let that person, if they're not here at the altar already, come quickly,
Lord. Grant it. May be their last call, You've just saddened my heart for some
reason. And I pray that You'll grant it through Jesus' Name. Everybody in prayer, will you? I'm just
strangely feeling tonight something wrong. Something's wrong somewhere. What's
wrong? Come on. Everybody seek out your heart. Find out just what's wrong, as
we sing once more. As we sing come now. God's speaking to somebody, I know
it...?... God bless you. ... waiting
not To rid my soul of one dark blot, To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each
spot, O Lamb of God, I come! I
come! Just as I am, Thou will
receive, Will welcome, pardon, cleanse,
relieve; Because Thy promise I
believe, O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
While we sing this next verse as the last verse, I want the ministers to come
around here and pray with us, if you will. The clergy here in the church
believes in an old fashion altar call, where here come twenty, thirty people
have knelt, sinners repenting of their sins. If you want to come, stand around
the altar, and pray with them, will you do it? Will you come now while we sing
this next verse? Any Christian worker that knows--got burdens of souls upon
your heart. If you haven't, you should have. God knows you should have.
I charge--challenge you to come tonight and make a real old fashion
Pentecost, then watch what God does tomorrow night in the healing service. You
get this thing straightened out and...?... here. You get this thing fixed out
and watch what God will do. You just do it; I challenge you. I don't very
seldom get worked up like this, but something's a doing it, something moving
me. And I feel very constrained. And I'm very interested in this call, feeling
that there's more here, should pour down around this altar here, still burdens
my heart. And if I be God's servant, and knowing that I know this is coming
from God, and I say it in Jesus' Name; you know I wouldn't say that 'less I
meant it. There's something wrong. And I want you to come while we sing once
more. The workers and so forth, and sinners, and all, gather around the altar
that wants to pray now. Help me sing once more? Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Will welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because Thy promise I believe, O Lamb of God, I come! I come!
THE TIE THAT BINDS Blest be the tie that binds Our hearts in
Christian love; The fellowship of kindred mind Is like to that above. We share
our mutual woes, Our mutual burdens bear; And often for each other flows A
sympathizing tear. When we asunder part, It gives us inward pain; But we shall
still be joined in heart, And hope to meet again. Don't you just love those old
songs? Like... Down at the cross where my Saviour died, Down there for
cleansing from sin I... There to my heart was the blood applied; Glory to His
name! Glory... Prayer card number 70 is out, he says. Prayer card A-70... Glory
to His precious name! Oh, there to my heart was the blood applied; Glory to His
Name!
THE
FAMILY PRAYER How many knows "Don't Forget The Family
Prayer"? How many prays in your family, your family prays? Oh, that's
good. Let's try it once, just like old times now. Don't forget the family
prayer, Jesus wants to meet you there; He will take your every care, Oh, don't
forget the family prayer. You like that? Let's try it again: Don't forget the
family prayer, Jesus wants to meet you there; (You got a date now) He will take
your every care, Oh, don't forget your family prayer. [A sister says, "Brother Branham, could
I say something?"--Ed.] Sure can, sister. [The sister begins speaking.
Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] Sister Nash, that's very fine. Oh, if you'll just... If
we trust and never doubt, He will surely bring you out; Just take your burden
to the Lord and leave them there. Leave them there, leave it there, Take your
burden to the Lord and leave it there; If we trust and never doubt, He will
surely bring you out; Take your burden to the Lord and leave them there.
BRINGING IN
THE SHEAVES Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, Oh, we shall
come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. Sowing in the morning, sowing seeds of
kindness, Sowing in the noontide and the dewy eve; Oh, by and by the harvest, then
the time of reaping, We shall come rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. Bringing
in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, We shall come rejoicing, bringing in
the sheaves; Bringing in the sheaves, bringing in the sheaves, We shall come
rejoicing, bringing in the sheaves. Well, that is fine. Bringing in the
sheaves, that's what the fathers and the mothers do, bring them to the Lord
Jesus.
I
WILL MEET YOU I will meet you
in the morning, By the bright river side, When all sorrows have drifted away; I'll
be standing at the portal, When the gates open wide, At the close of life's
long, weary day. I will meet you in the morning
With a
"How do you do," And we will set down by the river And with rapture
old acquaintance renew, You will know me in the morning, By the smile that I
wear, I will meet you in the morning, In the city, city built foursquare.
