Thou art the Way: to Thee Alone
Author: George Washington Doane, 1799-1859 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #260b (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Thou art the Way; to Thee alone
From sin and death we flee;
And he who would the Father seek,
Must seek Him, Lord, by Thee.
2 Thou art the Truth; Thy Word alone
True wisdom can impart:
Thou only canst inform the mind,
And purify the heart.
3 Thou art the Life; the rending tomb
Proclaims Thy conquering arm:
And those who put their trust in Thee,
Nor death nor hell shall harm.
4 Thou art the Way, the Truth, the Life;
Grant us that Way to know,
That Truth to keep, that Life to win,
Whose joys eternal flow.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: EVAN

I Was a Wandering Sheep
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #261a (1901) Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 I was a wandering sheep,
I did not love the fold;
I did not love my Shepherd's voice,
I would not be controlled.
I was a wayward child,
I did not love my home;
I did not love my Father's voice,
I loved afar to roam.
2 The Shepherd sought His sheep,
The Father sought His child;
They followed me o'er vale and hill,
O'er deserts waste and wild:
They found me nigh to death,
Famished, and faint, and lone;
They bound me with the bands of love,
They found the wandering one.
3 Jesus my Shepherd is,
'Twas He that loved my soul.
'Twas He that washed me in His blood,
'Twas He that made me whole.
'Twas He that sought the lost,
That found the wandering sheep;
'Twas He that brought me to the fold,
'Tis He that still doth keep.
4 I was a wandering sheep,
I would not be controlled;
But now I love my Shepherd's voice,
I love, I love the fold!
I was a wayward child,
I once preferred to roam;
But now I love my Father's voice,
I love, I love His home.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: THESSALONICA

One There is Above all Others
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #262 (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 One there is above all others,
Well deserves the name of Friend.
His is love beyond a brother’s,
Costly, free, and knows no end.
They who once His kindness prove,
Find it everlasting love.
2 Which of all our friends to save us
Could or would have shed His blood?
But this Saviour died to have us
Reconciled in Him to God:
This was boundless love indeed:
Jesus is a Friend in need.
3 When He lived on earth abaséd,
Friend of sinners was His Name:
Now, above all glory raiséd,
He rejoices in the same:
Still He calls them brethren, friends,
And to all their wants attends.
4 Oh, for grace our hearts to soften!
Teach us, Lord, at length to love.
We, alas! forget too often
What a Friend we have above:
But when home our souls are brought,
We will love Thee as we ought.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: AMEN SJUNGE HVARJE TUNGA

All That I was, my Sin, my Guilt
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808-1889 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #264a (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 All that I was, my sin, my guilt,
My death, was all my own;
All that I am, I owe to Thee,
My gracious God, alone.
2 The evil of my former state
Was mine, and only mine;
The good in which I now rejoice
Is Thine, and only Thine.
3 The darkness of my former state,
The bondage, all was mine;
The light of life in which I walk,
The liberty, is Thine.
4 Thy grace first made me feel my sin,
It taught me to believe;
Then in believing, peace I found,
And now I live, I live.
5 All that I am, e'en here on earth,
All that I hope to be
When Jesus comes and glory dawns,
I owe it, Lord, to Thee.
Amen.

Pray, Tell me, How Cam'st Thou so Easily in
Author: Andreas Carl Rutström, 1721-1772 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #265a (1901) Meter: 11.9.11.9.9 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Pray, tell me, how cam'st thou so easily in
Through yonder bright portal of heaven,
Since not to a soul here polluted by sin
Admission there ever was given?
Wast thou not akin to the fallen?
2 By grace did I live, and in grace did I die,
By grace did I enter these portals;
Lo, this is the ground and the reason why I
Am one of the blessed immortals,
Who sing hallelujah forever.
3 Oh, blesséd art thou who in life and in death
Hast grace for thine only foundation!
For sinners condemned, so His holy Word saith,
Can plead nothing else for salvation.
For grace, then, give thanks everlasting.

Dear Christians one and all Rejoice
Author: Martin Luther, 1483-1546 Hymnal: Hymnal and Order of Service #267a (1901) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Dear Christians one and all rejoice,
With exultation springing,
And, with united heart and voice
And holy rapture singing,
Proclaim the wonders God hath done,
How His right arm the victory won;
Right dearly it hath cost Him.
2 Fast bound in Satan's chains I lay,
Death brooded darkly o'er me,
Sin was my torment night and day,
In sin my mother bore me;
Deeper and deeper still I fell,
Life had become a living hell,
So firmly sin possessed me.
3 My good works so imperfect were,
They had no power to aid me;
My will God's judgments could not bear,
Yea, prone to evil made me:
Grief drove me to despair, and I
Had nothing left me but to die;
To hell I fast was sinking.
4 Then God beheld my wretched state
With deep commiseration;
He thought upon His mercy great,
And willed my soul's salvation;
He turned to me a Father's heart;
Not small the cost! to heal my smart,
He gave His best and dearest.
5 He spoke to His beloved Son:
"'Tis time to have compassion;
Then go, bright Jewel of my crown,
And bring to man salvation:
From sin and sorrow set him free,
Slay bitter death for him, that he
May live with Thee forever."
6 The Son obeyed Him cheerfully,
And born of virgin mother,
Came down upon the earth to me,
That He might be my brother:
His mighty power doth work unseen,
He came in fashion poor and mean,
And took the devil captive.
7 He sweetly said: "Hold fast by Me,
I am thy Rock and Castle,
Thy Ransom I myself will be,
For thee I strive and wrestle:
For I am with thee, I am thine,
And evermore thou shalt be mine,
The foe shall not divide us."
8 "The foe shall shed my precious blood,
Me of my life bereaving:
All this I suffer for thy good,
Be steadfast and believing:
Life shall from death the victory win,
My innocence shall bear thy sin,
So art thou blest forever."
9 "Now to my Father I depart,
From earth to heaven ascending,
Thence heavenly wisdom to impart,
The Holy Spirit sending:
He shall in trouble comfort thee,
Teach thee to know and follow me,
And to the truth shall conduct thee.
10 "What I have done and taught, teach thou,
My ways forsake thou never,
So shall My kingdom flourish now,
And God be praised, forever:
Take heed lest men with base alloy
The heavenly treasure should destroy;
This counsel I bequeath thee." Languages: English Tune Title: NUN FREUT EUCH, LIEBEN CHRISTEN G'MEIN
