I heard the voice of Jesus say

Author: Rev. Horatius Bonar Hymnal: The Hymnal #236 (1950) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: The Life in Christ Answering Christ's Call; Christ Call, Answering Christ's; Christ Calling Us Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Come unto Me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one, lay down Thy head upon My breast." I came to Jesus as I was, Weary and worn and sad; I found in Him a resting place, And He has made me glad. 2 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Behold, I freely give The living water; thirsty one, Stoop down, and drink, and live." I came to Jesus, and I drank Of that life-giving stream; My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, And now I live in Him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world's Light; Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise, And all thy day be bright." I looked to Jesus, and I found In Him my Star, my Sun; And in that Light of life I'll walk, Till traveling days are done. Amen. Tune Title: VOX DILECTI

Lyrics: 1 "Come, O sinner, all is ready!" Hear the loving Saviour plead, From death's dungeon He would free thee, On the living pathway lead. Know the Father's will to save: Yet a day of grace He gave; Hearken to the voice that calls thee, Ere His righteous doom befalls thee. 2 If thou to the Lord's entreaties Close thine ears and lock thy heart, If thou spurn the hand that beckons Thee from evil ways apart, Soon that gentle voice may cease: Know the things unto thy peace, Ere the door shall close forever, thee from heav'nly bliss to sever. 3 But if thou in deep contrition Ownest to thy helplessness, Trusting solely in His merit Who achieved thy righteousness, Hearken, then, unto His call. At His table humbly fall, There receive the food fro heaven For thy faith's sustention given. 4 Lord and Saviour, keep and guide me By Thy gospel light, I pray, That the world by her seductions Draw me not from Thee away. In Thy body and Thy blood Give me now that precious food Which Thy witness here shall make me, Till to thine abode Thou take me. Amen, Scripture: Matthew 22:4 Languages: English Tune Title: WERDE MUNTER, MEIN GEMÜTHE

Why will ye lavish out your years

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #277 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Gospel Call; Gospel the call of Lyrics: 1 Why will ye lavish out your years Amidst a thousand trifling cares, While, in the various range of thought, The one thing needful is forgot? 2 Why will ye chase the fleeting wind And famish an immortal mind, While angels with regret look down, To see you spurn a heav'nly crown? 3 Th'eternal God calls from above, And Jesus pleads His dying love; Awaken'd conscience gives you pain: And shall they join their please in vain? 4 Not so your dying eyes shall view Those objects which ye now pursue; Not so shall heaven and hell appear When the decisive hour is near. 5 Almighty God! Thine aid impart, To fix conviction on the heart: Thy power can clear the darkest eyes, And make the haughtiest scorner wise. Languages: English

For Adam’s lost race Christ hath open'd a fountain; For sin and uncleanness, and ev'ry transgression, His blood flows most freely in streams of salvation. Chorus: Hallelujah to the Lamb! He hath purchased our pardon, We'll praise Him again when we pass over Jordan. 2 Ye souls that are wounded! oh, flee to the Saviour! He calls you in mercy--'tis infinite favor; Your sins are increasing--escape to the mountain-- His blood can remove them, it flows from the fountain. [Chorus] 3 O Jesus! ride onward, triumphantly glorious, O’er sin, death, and hell, Thou art more than victorious: Thy name is the theme of the great congregation, While angels and saints raise the shout of salvation. [Chorus] 4 With joy shall we stand, when escaped to the shore; With harps in our hands, we'll praise Him the more; We’ll range the sweet plains on the bank of the river, And sing of redemption for ever and ever!

A fountain is open'd, how canst thou refuse To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? 3 Delay not, delay not; O sinner, to come, For mercy still lingers, and calls thee to-day; Her voice is not heard in the shades of the tomb; Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away. 4 Delay not, delay not; the Spirit of grace, Long grieved and resisted, may take His sad flight, And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race, To sink in the gloom of eternity’s night.

There is a time, we know not when

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #295 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Gospel Call; Gospel the call of Lyrics: 1 There is a time, we know not when, A point, we know not where, That marks the destiny of men To glory or despair. 2 There is a line, by us unseen, That crosses every path; The hidden boundary between God's patience and His wrath. 3 Oh, where is this mysterious bourn, By which our path is cross'd? Beyond which, God Himself hath sworn, That he who goes is lost. 4 How far may we go on in sin? How long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin The confines of despair? 5 An answer from the skies is sent: "Ye that from God depart, While it is called to-day, repent And harden not your heart."
