Believe and be saved
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 142 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16-18 First Line: Not to condemn the sons of men Lyrics: 1 Not to condemn the sons of men,
Did Christ, the Son of God, appear;
No weapons in his hands are seen,
No flaming sword, nor thunder there.
2 Such was the pity of our God,
He lov'd the race of man so well,
He sent his Son to bear our load
Of sins, and save our souls from hell.
3 Sinners, believe the Saviour's word,
Trust in his mighty name and live;
A thousand joys his lips afford,
His hands a thousand blessings give.
4 But vengeance and damnation lies
On rebels, who refuse the grace;
Who God's Eternal Son despise,
The hottest hell shall be their place.

Blessed Jesus, We Are Here
Author: Benjamin Schmolck; Catherine Winkworth Meter: 7.8.7.8.8.8 Appears in 70 hymnals Scripture: John 3:5-7 Lyrics: 1 Blessed Jesus, we are here,
gladly your command obeying.
With this child we now draw near
in response to your own saying
that to you it shall be given
as a child and heir of heaven.
2 Your command is clear and plain.
and we would obey it duly:
"You must all be born again,
heart and life renewing truly,
born of water and the Spirit,
and my kingdom thus inherit."
3 This is why we come to you
in our arms this infant bearing;
Lord, to us your glory show;
Let this child, your mercy sharing,
in your arms be shielded ever,
yours on earth and yours forever.
4 Gracious Head, your member own;
Shepherd, take your lamb and feed it;
Prince of Peace, make here your throne;
way of life, to heaven lead it;
Precious vine, let nothing sever
from your side this branch forever.
5 Now into your heart we pour
prayers that from our hearts proceeded.
Our petitions heav'nward soar;
may our fond desires be heeded!
Write the name we now have given;
write it in the book of heaven!

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 301 hymnals Scripture: John 3:16 Lyrics: 1 Bless, O my soul! the living God;
Call home thy thoughts that rove abroad;
Let all the powers within me join
In work and worship so divine,
In work and worship so divine,
2 Bless, O my soul! the God of grace;
His favors claim thy highest praise:
Why should the wonders He hath wrought
Be lost in silence and forgot,
Be lost in silence and forgot?
3 'Tis He, my soul! who sent His Son
To die for crimes which thou hast done:
He owns the ransom and forgives
The hourly follies of our lives,
The hourly follies of our lives.
4 Let the whole earth His power confess,
Let the whole earth adore His grace;
The Gentile with the Jew shall join
In work and worship so divine,
In work and worship so divine.
