Mourning souls, by sin distressed

Author: Burnham Meter: 8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Mourning souls, by sin distressed, Lost and ruined, void of good, You can never be released, But by faith in Jesus’ blood. 2 Richly flowed the crimson river, Down Immanuel’s lovely side; And that blood will you deliver, Whensoever ’tis applied. 3 Christ is ready to receive you; See his bloody cross appear. From your sins he will relieve you, And dissolve your every fear. 4 O behold the Lord expiring; See the suffering Lamb of God! And that love be much admiring, Which appears in streams of blood. Topics: Sufferings, Death, and Cross of Christ Scripture: John 19:3-4

Jesus, Thou art mine forever

Meter: 8.7 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art mine forever, Dearer far than earth to me; Neither life nor death shall sever Those sweet ties which bind to Thee. 2 All were drear to me and lonely, If Thy presence gladdened not; While I sing to Thee-- Thee only, Mine’s an ever blissful lot. 3 Thou alone art all my Treasure, Who hast died that I might live, Thou conferrest noblest pleasure, Who dost all my sins forgive. 4 Brightest gems and fairest flowers Lose their beauty in Thy frown; Joy and peace, like balmy showers, In Thy smile come gently down. 5 Jesus, Thou art mine forever, Suffer not myself to stray; Let me in my weakness never Cast my priceless pearl away. 6 Lamb of God! I do implore Thee, Guard, support me, lest I fall; Let me evermore adore Thee, Be my everlasting All. Topics: The Redeemer

"Why weepest thou?"

Author: Toplady Meter: 8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: No more at Mary wonder Lyrics: 1 I no more at Mary wonder Dropping tears upon the grave, Earnest asking all around her, “Where is he that died to save?” 2 Dying love her heart attracted. Soon she felt its rising power, He who Mary thus affected, Bids his mourners weep no more.

Faith and Repentance

Author: Hart Meter: 8.7 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: Jesus is our God and Saviour Lyrics: 1 Jesus is our God and Saviour, Guide, and Counsellor, and Friend; Bearing all our misbehaviour, Kind and loving to the end. Trust him, he will not deceive us, Though we hardly of him deem; He will never, never leave us; Nor will let us quite leave him. 2 Nothing but thy blood, O Jesus! Can relieve us from our smart; Nothing else from guilt release us; Nothing else can melt the heart. Law and terrors do but harden, All the while they work alone; But a sense of blood-bought pardon Soon dissolves a heart of stone. 3 Teach us, by thy patient Spirit, How to mourn and not despair; Let us, leaning on thy merit, Wrestle hard with God in prayer. Whatsoe’er afflictions seize us, They shall profit, if not please; But defend, defend us, Jesus, From security and ease. 4 Softly to thy garden lead us, To behold thy bloody sweat; Though thou from the curse hast freed us, Let us not the cost forget. Be thy groans and cries rehearsèd By the Spirit in our ears, Till we, viewing whom we’ve piercèd, Melt in sympathetic tears.

God of love, our Father Saviour

Author: H. W. Robilliard Meter: 8.7 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God of love, our Father Saviour, Holy Spirit, Thee we praise! Triune God, all thought transcending, Fain would we a temple raise Worthy of Thy loving kindness, Hallowed thro' all earthly days. 2 Make these stones a hallowed symbol, Saints of God who run may read, Types of those whom, blest Redeemer, Thou from sin and woe hast freed, Pillars Thou hast hewn and shapen, Thine elect in every deed! 3 Lord! restore the gates of Sion, Let her courts with praise resound! May Thy light and love descending Shed their radiant joys around, So shall man reveal Thy glory: Earth, like heaven, be hallowed ground! Amen.
