My Lord, I Did Not Choose You

Author: Josiah Conder Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #496 (1987) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Lyrics: 1 My Lord, I did not choose you, for that could never be; my heart would still refuse you, had you not chosen me. You took the sin that stained me, you cleansed me, made me new; of old you have ordained me, that I should live in you. 2 Unless your grace had called me and taught my opening mind, the world would have enthralled me, to heavenly glories blind. My heart knows none above you; for your rich grace I thirst. I know that if I love you, you must have loved me first.

I lay my sins on Jesus

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #499 (1899) Lyrics: 1 I lay my sins on Jesus, The spotless Lamb of God; He bears them all, and frees us From the accursed load. I bring my guilt to Jesus, To wash my crimson stains White in His blood most precious, Till not a spot remains. 2 I lay my wants on Jesus: All fullness dwells in Him; He heals all my diseases, He doth my soul redeem. I lay my griefs on Jesus, My burdens and my cares; He from them all releases, He all my sorrows shares. 3 I long to be like Jesus, Meek, loving, lowly, mild; I long to be like Jesus, The Father's holy child. I long to be with Jesus, Amid the heavenly throng, To sing with saints His praises, To learn the angels' song. Amen.
