  1. A Land With­out Tears
  2. Across Life’s Plain a Call
  3. Adown the Years, Through Joy
  4. All Hea­ven Shall Ring
  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
  14. Anywhere Your Bless­ed Lord May
  15. Are You Liv­ing, Dai­ly Liv­ing for the Sav­ior?
  16. Are You Trust­ing in Je­sus?
  17. Are You Wea­ry of the Load?
  18. Are You Weep­ing Alone in Ang­uish?
  19. As I Jou­rney on My Way
  20. As On­ward Through Life’s Field You Go
  21. As We Part To­day, Go­ing on Our Way
  22. As We Tread the Nar­row Way
  23. As You’re Dai­ly Pass­ing Along
  24. At the King’s Com­mand
  25. At the Trum­pet’s Call
  26. Awed and Strick­en I Stand
