Jesus, I My Cross Have Taken

Author: Henry Francis Lyte Hymnal: The Hymnbook #279 (1955) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Forgiveness; Life in Christ Repentance and Forgiveness Lyrics: 1 Jesus, I my cross have taken, All to leave, and follow Thee; Destitute, despised, forsaken, Thou from hence my All shalt be: Perish every fond ambition, All I've sought, or hoped, or known; Yet how rich is my condition: God and heaven are still my own. 2 Man may trouble and distress me, 'Twill but drive me to Thy breast; Life with trials hard may press me, Heaven will bring me sweeter rest; O 'tis not in grief to harm me While Thy love is left to me; O 'twere not in joy to charm me, Were that joy unmixed with Thee. 3 Take, my soul, thy full salvation, Rise o'er sin and fear and care; Joy to find in every station Something still to do or bear; Think what Spirit dwells within thee, What a Father's smile is thine, What a Saviour died to win thee: Child of heaven, shouldst thou repine? 4 Haste, then, on from grace to glory, Armed by faith and winged by prayer; Heaven's eternal day's before thee: God's own hand shall guide thee there. Soon shall close thy earthly mission; Swift shall pass thy pilgrim days; Hope soon change to glad fruition, Faith to sight, and prayer to praise. Amen. Scripture: Mark 10:21 Tune Title: ELLESDIE

Hymnal: The Hymnbook #281 (1955) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Forgiveness; Life in Christ Repentance and Forgiveness Lyrics: 1 How blest is he whose trespass Hath freely been forgiven, Whose sin is wholly covered Before the sight of heaven. To whom the Lord in mercy Imputeth not his sin, Who hath a guileless spirit, Whose heart is true within. 2 While I kept guilty silence My strength was spent with grief, Thy hand was heavy on me, My soul found no relief; But when I owned my trespass, My sin hid not from Thee, When I confessed transgression, Then Thou forgavest me. 3 So let the godly seek Thee In times when Thou art near; No whelming floods shall reach them, Nor cause their hearts to fear. In Thee, O Lord, I hide me, Thou savest me from ill, And songs of Thy salvation My heart with rapture thrill. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 32 Tune Title: RUTHERFORD
