  5. All Is Well, All Is Well
  6. All the World to Us
  7. Alone with My Sav­ior, My Sins
  8. Although He Was the Son of God
  9. Although the World with Cru­el Blows
  10. Although You the Sav­ior Spurn
  11. Although You’re Far from Christ
  12. Amid the Toils and Cares of Life
  13. Another Chance to You Is Giv­en
