Alumni and Friends of Kottarakara Adventist School (AFKAS) Convention 2026 1 Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go, Anywhere He leads me in this world below; Anywhere without Him dearest joys would fade; Anywhere with Jesus I am not afraid. Anywhere, anywhere! Fear I cannot know; Anywhere with Jesus I can safely go. Anywhere with Jesus I am not alone; Other friends may fail me, He is still my own; Though His hand may lead me over drearest ways, Anywhere with Jesus is a house of praise. Anywhere with Jesus, over land and sea, Telling souls in darkness of salvation free; Ready as He summons me to go or stay, Anywhere with Jesus when He points the way. Anywhere with Jesus I can go to sleep, When the darkening shadows round about me creep, Knowing I shall waken nevermore to roam; Anywhere with Jesus will be home, sweet home. 1 tijsmuk; SuCk dosm SeluJml; Lisrs^ rm\k^k TO Shlsd Lirj#l\j¬sa#l; a*Jmk; tijsmuk; SuCkdosm ssPgUsa t*kSa, t*kSa, >Jfjuj#jS| tijsmukSaCk dosm ssPgUSa tijsmukSaCk tsRy domk!k[ c[Sr|jfG siyk\lhkaiR cIΩ; fsRy f{)g*sxs^ rm\k; SuCkik= : >ir; T¬Sa - t*kSa 2 Have Thine own way, Lord!

Weary souls fore’er rejoice, while they hear that sweetest voice, Whispering softly, “Wanderer, come, follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” 2. Ever present, truest Friend, ever near Thine aid to lend, Leave us not to doubt and fear, groping on in darkness drear. When the storms are raging sore, hearts grow faint and hopes give o’er. Whispering softly, “Wanderer, come, follow Me, I’ll guide thee home.” 3. When our days of toil cease, waiting still for sweet release, Nothing left but heaven and prayer, wondering if our names are there; Wading deep the dismal flood, pleading naught but Jesus’ blood, Whispering softly, “Wanderer, com 26 tSΩlglrå; SYeacDjfI; SuCk f{)g*xjH t^k; LΩa†fl;calPlrik; :CjGilpik; h>j)k^k Ydjc[fR alG%jH vlgj ckDjs)R - :f[alSi cIc[FfujH YeSiCj&k ckDalu[ilql; 25 :f[alil; iqjdlMj ts^ cpl rm\j sdl!k Seldk; ilr\jH dosm cliPlr\jH ®JnSg cSΩl

Refrain: Onward, Christian soldiers, marching as to war, With the cross of Jesus going on before. At the sign of triumph Satan’s host doth flee; On then, Christian soldiers, on to victory! Hell’s foundations quiver at the shout of praise; Brothers lift your voices, loud your anthems raise. Like a mighty army moves the church of God; Brothers, we are treading where the saints have trod. We are not divided, all one body we, One in hope and doctrine, one in charity. Crowns and thrones may perish, kingdoms rise and wane, But the church of Jesus constant will remain. Gates of hell can never ’gainst that church prevail; We have Christ’s own promise, and that cannot fail. Onward then, ye people, join our happy throng, Blend with ours your voices in the triumph song. Glory, praise, and honor unto Christ the King, This through countless ages men and angels sing. 21 1. Praise Him! praise Him! Jesus, our blessèd Redeemer! Sing, O Earth, His wonderful love proclaim! Hail Him! hail Him! highest archangels in glory; Strength and honor give to His holy Name! Like a shepherd, Jesus will guard His children, In His arms He carries them all day long: Praise Him! Praise Him! Tell of His excellent greatness. Praise Him! Praise Him! Ever in joyful song!

Well may this glowing heart rejoice, And tell its raptures all abroad. O happy bond, that seals my vows To Him Who merits all my love! Let cheerful anthems fill His house, While to that sacred shrine I move. ’Tis done: the great transaction’s done! I am the Lord’s and He is mine; He drew me, and I followed on; Charmed to confess the voice divine. Now rest, my long divided heart, Fixed on this blissful center, rest. Here have I found a nobler part; Here heavenly pleasures fill my breast. High heaven, that heard the solemn vow, That vow renewed shall daily hear, Till in life’s latest hour I bow And bless in death a bond so dear. 19 t^k=Sa c[fkfj) rJ egsr fR rødX)lu[ c[fkfj)l; c[fkfj)l; t^Ωg;zsa Lrkpjrik; råjSulsm elmj ekdq[\l; ckgShld ckD; simjçk - rjs^ Sfmj i^ TmuR - fsRy Sp|sa^fjg∑Jh vjΩj fi Sal®alG©; fky^k - t^k=Sa eleSglz\lH rJihçk - sf#kl :Cuj#lfhçk - elg; SdnjmkS¬lX fjgkSarjufjH rjsRy iUlPjsu#l; i|j&k - t^k=Sa ehSClPrdX igkS¬lX >lg*X segkdjmkS¬lX rjs^dl\kco®js&lgk dlΩrS#l rjsRy >lgsa#l; vka^k - t^k=Sa :f[aijrlsh rjy&k :råak=jH edG^k YefUlC iG∫j/j&k elhj&Jmk; fi Sc[r|afjCusa - t^k=Sa
