Lord, We Confess Our Numerous Faults

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 119 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ First Line: Lord, we confess our num'rous faults Lyrics: 1 Lord, we confess our num'rous faults, How great our guilt has been: Foolish and vain were all our thoughts, And all our lives were sin. 2 But, O my soul, forever praise, Forever love His Name, Who turns Thy feet from dang'rous ways Of folly, sin, and shame. 3 'Tis not by works of righteousness Which our own hands have done; But we are saved by sovereign grace Abounding through His Son. 4 'Tis from the mercy of our God That all our hopes begin; 'Tis by the water and the blood Our souls are washed from sin. 5 'Tis through the purchase of His death Who hung upon the tree The Spirit is sent down to breathe On such dry bones as we. 6 Raised from the dead, we live anew, And, justified by grace, We shall appear in glory too, And see our Father's face.

O God of Mercies, Father Mine

Author: Anna Hoppe Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ Lyrics: 1 O God of mercies, Father mine, Drawn by Thy boundless love divine, I come to Thee, a wayward child, Bowed down by guilt, with sin defiled. Relieve my burdened heart, I pray, Dear Father, cast me not away. In deep contrition I implore, Remember Thou my sin no more. Have mercy, Lord! Have mercy, Lord! 2 My blest Redeemer, Thy dear Son, On Calvary my ransom won. The Friend of sinners died for me, To reconcile me unto Thee. The curse of Law for me He bore. For His dear sake, My God, restore Salvation's holy joy to me. Hark to a contrite sinner's plea: Forgive me, Lord! Forgive me, Lord! 3 Thy Holy Spirit, through Thy word, Assures me of Thy grace, dear Lord. My risen High Priest intercedes, His holy blood for pardon pleads. Wash Thou me in that crimson flow, And I shall be as white as snow. Remove my sin-stained carnal dress, Grant me Christ's robe of righteousness. O cleanse me, Lord! O cleanse me, Lord! 4 Thy loving-kindness I shall praise, O gracious Lord, through all my days. Grant Thou me grace, while here I live, In true compassion to forgive, And unto erring brethren show The love Thou didst on me bestow Till, glorified by grace, my God, In realms on high Thy Name I laud Forevermore! Forevermore~ Amen. Scripture: Matthew 18:23-35 Used With Tune: KOMM, HEILIGER GEIST, HERRE GOTT

'Twas for my Sake, eternal GOD

Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin Lyrics: 1 'Twas for my Sake, eternal GOD, Thy Son sustain'd that heavy Load Of base Reproach and sore Disgrace, And Shame defil'd his sacred Face. 2 The Jews, his Brethren and his Kin, Abus'd the Man that check'd their Sin: While he fulfill'd thy holy Laws That hate him, but without a Cause. 3 [My Father's House, said he, was made, A Place for Worship, not for Trade: Then scatt'ring all their Gold and Brass, He scourg'd the Merchants from the Place.] 4 [Zeal for the Temple of his GOD, Consum'd his Life, expos'd his Blood; Reproaches at thy Glory thrown He felt, and mourn'd 'em as his own.] 5 [His Friends forsook, his Followers fled, While Foes and Arms surround his Head; They curse him with a slad'rous Tongue, And the false Judge maintains the Wrong.] 6 His Life they load with hateful Lies, And charge his Lips with Blasphemies; They nail him to the shameful Tree; There hung the Man that dy'd for me. 7 [Wretches, with Hearts as hard as Stones, Insult his Piety and Groans; Gall was the Food they gave him there, And mock'd his Thirst with Vinegar.] 8 But GOD beheld; and from his Throne Marks out the Men that hate his Son; The Hand that rais'd him from the Dead, Shall pour the Vengeance on their Head. Scripture: Psalm 69:7-36
