And can it be that I should gain
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Appears in 308 hymnals Topics: Saints Days and Holy Days Conversion of St Paul Lyrics: 1 And can it be that I should gain
an interest in the Saviour's blood?
Died he for me, who caused his pain--
for me, who him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be
that thou, my God, shouldst die for me!
2 'Tis mystery all! The immortal dies:
who can explore his strange design?
In vain the first-born seraph tries
to sound the depths of love divine.
'Tis mercy all! Let earth adore,
let angel minds enquire no more.
3 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.
'Tis mercy all, immense and free:
for, O my God, it found out me.
4 Long my imprisoned spirit lay
fast bound in sin and nature's night:
thine eye diffused a quickening ray--
I woke; the dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed thee.
5 No condemnation now I dread:
Jesus, 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. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:6-12 Used With Tune: SAGINA

What shall I do my God to love
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-88 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 60 hymnals Topics: Saints Days and Holy Days Conversion of St Paul Lyrics: 1 What shall I do my God to love,
my loving God to praise?
the length, and breadth, and height to prove,
and depth of sovereign grace?
2 Your sovereign grace to all extends,
immense and unconfined;
from age to age it never ends,
to reach all humankind.
3 Throughout the world its breadth is known,
wide as infinity;
so wide it never passed by one,
or it had passed by me.
4 My trespass was grown up to heav'n;
but far above the skies,
in Christ abundantly forgiv'n,
I see your mercies rise.
5 The depth of all-redeeming love,
what angel tongue can tell?
O may I to the utmost prove
the gift unspeakable.
6 Come quickly, gracious Lord, and take
possession of your own;
my longing heart be pleased to make
your everlasting throne.
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 9:15 Used With Tune: WILTSHIRE

Lord, Who fulfillest thus anew
Author: H. W. Mozley Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Holy Days Conversion of St. Paul Lyrics: 1 Lord, Who fulfillest thus anew
Thine own blest dying prayer,
That they who know not what they do,
May in Thy ransom share:
2 When foes Thy Church's power defy,
Or slight Thy sacred word,
Or Thee, true God and Man, deny,
Grant them conversion, Lord.
3 Grant that the light may round them shine;
That, set from error free,
They in Thy word the truth divine,
Thee in Thy Church may see;
4 That so, when our brief time is done,
We may with them adore
The Father, and coequal Son,
And Spirit evermore. Used With Tune: MOUNT CALVARY

and cause to shine upon us the brightness of your face,
that so your way most holy on earth may soon be known,
and unto ev'ry people your saving grace be shown.
Let all the peoples praise you, let all the nations sing;
in ev'ry land let praises and songs of gladness ring.
2 For you will judge the peoples in truth and righteousness,
your rule of perfect justice all nations will confess.
Let all the peoples praise you, let all the nations sing;
then earth in rich abundance to us its fruit shall bring.
The Lord our God will bless us, his richest blessing send,
and all creation praise him to earth's remotest end.
