Like the Nine

Author: Mrs. E. C. Ellsworth Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Invitations to Christ First Line: There were ten that besought Him, the Master divine Lyrics: 1 There were ten that besought Him, the Master divine, There were ten that were healed, but where are the nine? Only one saw the gift, only one heard the call, Only one grasped the treasure, tho’ offered to all. 2 O where are the nine to bow at His feet? O where are the nine, with gratitude meet? O where are the many who own Him divine, But give Him no glory? O where are the nine? 3 There were ten who were cleansed, all but one went their way, Were content with the good that lasts but a day; And would you like the nine ever satisfied be, With a blessing so transient, while mercy is free? 4 There was grace for the ten, what a marvel that nine Should have turned from the gift—the treasure divine! What a wonder so many are doing the same, By neglecting salvation—for them Jesus came. Used With Tune: [There were ten that besought Him, the Master divine]

Emancipation from Spiritual Slavery

Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Gospel Invitations of First Line: Rebels, who had dared to show Lyrics: 1 Rebels, who had dared to show Proud contempt of God Most High, Bound in iron and in woe, Shades of death and darkness night, Humbled low with toil and pain, Fell, and looked for help in vain. 2 To Jehovah then they cried In their trouble, and He saved, Threw the prison open wide Where they lay to death enslaved, Bade the gloomy shadows flee, Broke their bonds and set them free. 3 Sons of men, awake to praise God the Lord Who reigns above, Gracious in His works and ways, Wondrous in redeeming love; Iron bars He breaks like clay, And the brazen gates give way.
