Now let our Lips with holy Fear

Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin Lyrics: 1 Now let our Lips with holy Fear And mournful Pleasure sing The Suff'rings of our great High-Priest, The Sorrows of our King. 2 He sinks in Floods of deep Distress; How high the Waters rise! While to his heav'nly Father's Ear He sends perpetual Cries. 3 "Hear me, O Lord, and save thy Son, "Nor hide thy shining Face; "Why should thy Fav'rite look like one "Forsaken of thy Grace? 4 "With Rage they persecute the Man "That groans beneath thy Wound, "While for a Sacrifice I pour "My Life upon the Ground. 5 "They tread my Honour to the Dust, "And laugh when I complain; "Their sharp insulting Slanders add "Fresh Anguish to my Pain. 6 "All my Reproach is known to Thee, "The Scandal and the Shame; "Reproach has broke my bleeding Heart, "And Lies defil'd my Name. 7 "I look'd for Pity, but in vain; "My Kindred are my Grief; "I ask my Friends for Comfort round, "But meet with no Relief. 8 "With Vinegar they mock my Thirst, "They give me Gall for Food, "And sporting with my dying Groans, "They triumph in my Blood. 9 "Shine into my distressed Soul, "Let thy Compassion save; "And though my Flesh sink down to Death, "Redeem it from the Grave. 10 "I shall arise to praise thy Name, "Shall reign in Worlds unknown, "And thy Salvation, O my GOD, "Shall seat me on thy Throne." Scripture: Psalm 69:14-21

Original and actual Sin confessed and pardoned

Appears in 49 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin; Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin First Line: Lord, I would spread my sore distress Lyrics: 1 Lord, I would spread my sore distress And guilt before thine eyes; Against thy laws, against thy grace, How high my crimes arise! 2 Should'st thou condemn my soul to hell, And crush my flesh to dust, Heaven would approve thy vengeance well, And earth must own it just. 3 I from the stock of Adam came, Unholy and unclean; All my original is shame, And all my nature sin. 4 Born in a world of guilt, I drew Contagion with my breath; And as my days advanc'd, I grew A juster prey for death. 5 Cleanse me, O Lord, and cheer my soul With thy forgiving love; O make my broken spirit whole, And bid my pains remove. 6 Let not thy spirit e'er depart, Nor drive me from thy face; Create a-new my vicious heart, And fill it with thy grace. 7 Then will I make thy mercy known Before the sons of men; Backsliders shall address thy throne, And turn to God again. Scripture: Psalm 51:3-13

Original and actual Sin confessed

Appears in 217 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin; Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin First Line: Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in sin Lyrics: 1 Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in sin, And born unholy and unclean; Sprung from the man whose guilty fall Corrupts the race, and taints us all. 2 Soon as we draw our infant breath, The seeds of sin grow up for death; Thy law demands a perfect heart; But we'er defil'd in every part. 3 [Great God, create my heart a-new, And form my spirit pure and true; Oh make me wise betimes to spy My danger and my remedy.] 4 Behold I fall before thy face; My only refuge is thy grace; No outward forms can make me clean; The leprosy lies deep within. 5 No bleeding bird, nor bleeding beast, Nor hysop-branch, nor sprinkling priest, Nor running brook, nor flood, nor sea, Can wash the dismal stain away. 6 Jesus, my God, thy blood alone Hath power sufficient to attone; Thy blood can make me white as snow; No Jewish types could cleanse me so. 7 While guilt disturbs and breaks my peace, Nor flesh nor soul hath rest or ease; Lord, let me hear thy pardoning voice, And make my broken heart rejoice. Scripture: Psalm 51

A Penitent pleading for Pardon

Appears in 801 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin; Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin First Line: Shew pity, Lord, O Lord, forgive Lyrics: 1 Shew pity, Lord, O Lord, forgive, Let a repenting rebel live; Are not thy mercies large and free? May not a sinner trust in thee? 2 My crimes are grea,t but can't surpass The power and glory of thy grace: Great God, thy nature hath no bound, So let thy pardoning love be found? 3 Oh wash my soul from every sin, And make my guilty conscience clean; Here on my heart the burden lies, And past offenses pain mine eyes. 4 My lips with shame my sins confess Against thy law, against thy grace; Lord, should thy judgement grow severe, I am condemn'd, but thou art clear. 5 Should sudden vengeance seize my breath, I must pronounce thee just in death; And if my soul were sent to hell, Thy righteous law approves it well. 6 Yet save a trembling sinner, Lord, Whose hope, still hovering round thy word, Would light on some sweet promise there, Some sure support against despair. Scripture: Psalm 51

Christ's Sufferings and Zeal

Appears in 32 hymnals Topics: Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin; Blood of Christ cleansing from Sin First Line: 'Twas for our sake, eternal God Lyrics: 1 'Twas for thy sake, eternal God, Thy Son sustain'd that heavy load Of base reproach and sore disgrace, While 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, They hate him, but without a cause. 3 [My Father's house, said he, was made A place for worship, not for trade; Then scattering 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 them as his own.] 5 [His friends forsook, his followers fled, While foes and arms surround his head; They curse him with a slanderous 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 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
