And Can It Be
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 308 hymnals Topics: Confession of Sin First Line: And can it be that I should gain Refrain First Line: Amazing love! How can it be Lyrics: 1 And can it be that I should gain
an interest in the Savior's blood?
Died he for me, who caused his pain–
for me, who caused his bitter death?
Amazing love! How can it be
that you, my Lord, should die for me?
Refrain:
Amazing love! How can it be
that you, my Lord, should die for me?!
2 He left his Father's throne above–
so free, so infinite his grace–
emptied himself of all but love,
and bled for Adam's helpless race!
What mercy this, immense and free,
for, O my God, it found out me! [Refrain]
3 Long my imprisoned spirit lay
fast bound in sin and nature's night.
Your sunrise turned that night to day;
I woke– the dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, your voice I knew;
I rose, went out, and followed you. [Refrain]
4 No condemnation now I dread,
for Christ, and all in him, is mine!
Alive in him, my living Head,
and clothed in righteousness divine,
bold I approach the eternal throne
and claim the crown, through Christ, my own. [Refrain]

And Can It Be
With tears of anguish I lament
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 147 hymnals Topics: Confession of Sin Lyrics: 1 With tears of anguish I lament,
Here at Thy feet, my God,
My passion, pride, and discontent,
And vile ingratitude.
2 Sure there was ne'er a heart so base,
So false as mine has been:
So faithless to its promises,
So prone to every sin!
3 How long, dear Saviour, shall I feel
These strugglings in my breast?
When wilt Thou bow my stubborn will,
And give my conscience rest?
4 Break, sov'reign Grace, oh, break the charm,
And set the captive free:
Reveal, Almighty God, Thine arm,
And haste to rescue me.
With tears of anguish I lament
The Punishment of Luxury and Intemperance;or, Chastisement and Salvation
Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Sin and chastisement of saints First Line: When Isr'el sins, the Lord reproves Lyrics: 1 When Isr'el sins, the Lord reproves
And fills their Hearts with Dread;
Yet he forgives the Men he loves,
And sends them heav'nly Bread.
2 He fed them with a lib'ral Hand,
And made his Treasures known;
He gave the Midnight Clouds command
To pour Provision down.
3 The Manna, like a Morning Show'r,
Lay thick around their Feet;
The Corn of Heav'n, so light, so pure,
As though 'twere Angels Meat.
4 But they in murm'ring Language said,
"Manna is all our Feast;
"We loath this light, this airy Bread;
"We must have Flesh to taste."
5 Ye shall have Flesh to please your Lust,
The Lord in Wrath reply'd,
And sent 'em Quails, like Sand or Dust,
Heap'd up from Side to Side.
6 He gave 'em all their own Desire,
And greedy as they fed,
His Vengeance burnt with secret Fire,
And smote the Rebels dead.
7 When some were slain, the rest return'd
And sought the Lord with Tears;
Under the Rod they fear'd and mourn'd,
But soon forgot their fears.
8 Oft he chastis'd, and still forgave,
'Till, by his gracious Hand,
The Nation he resolv'd to save
Possess'd the promis'd Land.
Scripture: Psalm 78

Appears in 88 hymnals Topics: Sins of tongue; Sins of tongue First Line: Lord, I will bless thee all my days Lyrics: 1 Lord, I will bless you all my days,
Thy praise shall dwell upon my tongue;
My soul shall glory in thy grace,
While saints rejoice to hear the song.
2 Come, magnify the Lord with me,
Let every heart exalt his name;
I sought th' eternal God, and he
Has not expos'd my hope to shame.
3 I told him all my secret grief,
My secret groaning reach'd his ears;
He gave my inward pains relief,
And calm'd the tumult of my fears.
4 To him the poor lift their eyes,
With heavenly joy their faces shine,
A beam of mercy from the skies
Fills them with light and joy divine.
5 His holy angels pitch their tents
Around the men that serve the Lord;
Oh fear and love him, all his saints,
Taste of his grace, and trust his word.
6 The wild young lions, pinch'd with pain
And hunger, roar through all the wood;
But none shall seek the Lord in vain,
Nor want supplies of real good.
Scripture: Psalm 34

Sweet Hour of Prayer
Author: William W. Walford Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 1,380 hymnals Topics: Conflict With Sin Lyrics: 1 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
that calls me from a world of care,
and bids me at my Father's throne,
make all my wants and wishes known!
In seasons of distress and grief,
my soul has often found relief,
and oft escaped the tempter's snare,
by thy return, sweet hour of prayer.
2 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
the joys I feel, the bliss I share
of those whose anxious spirits burn
with strong desires for thy return!
With such I hasten to the place
where God, my Savior, shows his face,
and gladly take my station there,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.
3 Sweet hour of prayer, sweet hour of prayer,
thy wings shall my petition bear
to him, whose truth and faithfulness
engage the waiting the soul to bless:
and since he bids me seek his face,
believe his Word, and trust his grace,
I'll cast on him my ev'ry care,
and wait for thee, sweet hour of prayer.

Just as I Am, Without One Plea
Author: Charlotte Elliott Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2,301 hymnals Topics: Sin Lyrics: 1 Just as I am, without one plea
But that Thy blood was shed for me,
And that Thou biddest me come to Thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
2 Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To Thee, whose blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
3 Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
4 Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because Thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
5 Just as I am, Thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down;
Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
Amen. Scripture: John 1:36 Used With Tune: WOODWORTH
