Come, Ye Disconsolate
Author: Thomas Moore; Thomas Hastings Meter: 11.10.11.10 Appears in 1,055 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:3-7 First Line: Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish,
come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel.
Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish.
Earth has no sorrows that Heav’n cannot heal.
2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying,
hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure!
Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying,
“Earth has no sorrows that Heav’n cannot cure.”
3 Here see the Bread of life; see waters flowing
forth from the throne of God, pure from above.
Come to the feast of love, come, ever knowing
earth has no sorrows but Heav’n can remove.

Lord, I approach the mercy-seat
Author: Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 612 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:20 Lyrics: 1 Lord, I approach the mercy-seat,
Where thou dost answer prayer;
There humbly fall before thy feet--
For none can perish there.
2 Thy promise is my only plea;
With this I venture nigh;
Thou callest burdened souls to thee,
And such, O Lord, am I.
3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
By Satan sorely pressed;
By wars without, and fears within,
I come to thee for rest.
4 Be thou my shield and hiding-place;
That, sheltered near thy side,
I may rejoice in Jesus' grace--
In Jesus crucified.
5 Oh, wondrous love!--to bleed and die,
To bear the cross and shame,
That guilty sinners, such as I,
Might plead thy gracious name.

Lord, I approach the mercy-seat
Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed
Author: Lyle Appears in 560 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:22 Lyrics: 1 Our blest Redeemer, ere he breathed
His last farewell,
A guide, a comforter, bequeathed
With us to dwell.
2 He comes his graces to impart
A willing guest,
While he can find one humble heart
Wherein to rest.
3 And all the good that we possess,
His gift we own;
Yea, every thought of holiness,
And victory won.

Our weakness see:
Oh, make our hearts thy dwelling-place,
And worthier thee. Topics: The Holy Spirit; The Source of Every Good Gift

Father, I Stretch My Hands to Thee
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 540 hymnals Scripture: 2 Corinthians 1:3 Refrain First Line: I do believe, I now believe Lyrics: 1 Father, I stretch my hands to Thee;
No other help I know;
If Thou withdraw Thyself from me,
Ah! whither shall I go?
2 What did Thine only Son endure,
Before I drew my breath!
What pain, what labor, to secure
My soul from endless death!
3 O Jesus, could I this believe,
I now should feel Thy power!
Now my poor soul Thou wouldst retrieve,
Nor let me wait one hour.
4 Author of faith, to Thee I lift
My weary, longing eyes;
O let me now receive that gift!
My soul without it dies.
5 Surely Thou canst not let me die;
O speak, and I shall live;
And here I will unwearied lie,
Till Thou Thy Spirit give.
6 The worst of sinners would rejoice,
Could they but see Thy face;
O let me hear Thy quickening voice,
And taste Thy pardoning grace!
Amen.
