The Savior's Invitation

Author: Steele Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXX (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Encouragement and invitation First Line: The Savior calls— let every ear attend Lyrics: 1 The Savior calls— let every ear Attend the heavenly sound; Ye doubting souls, dismiss your fear, Hope smiles reviving round. 2 For every thirsty, longing heart, Here streams of bounty flow, And life, and health, and bliss impart To banish mortal woe. 3 Here springs of sacred pleasures rise To ease your every pain, (Immortal fountain— full supplies) Nor shall you thirst in vain. 4 Ye sinners, come, 'tis mercy’s voice; The gracious call obey; Mercy invites to heavenly joys— And can you yet delay? 5 Dear Savior, draw reluctant hearts, To you let sinners fly; And take the bliss thy love imparts And drink, and never die.

Exhortation to Prayer

Author: Cowper Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCLIII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Encouragement to prayer First Line: What various hindrances we meet Lyrics: 1 What various hindrances we meet In coming to a mercy-seat! Yet who that knows the worth of prayer But wishes to be often there? 2 Prayer makes the darkened clouds withdraw, Prayer climes the ladder Jacob saw; Gives exercise to faith and love, Brings every blessing from above. 3 Restraining prayer we cease to fight; Prayer makes the Christian's armor bright; And Satan trembles, when he sees The weakest saint upon his knees. 4 While Moses stood with arms spread wide, Success was found on Israel's side; But when thro' weariness they fail'd, That moment Amalek prevail'd. 5 Have you no words? ah, think again, Words flow apace when you complain, And fill a fellow-creature's ear With the sad tale of all your care. 6 Were half the breath thus vainly spent, To Heaven in supplication sent; Your cheerful song would oft'ner be, "Hear what the Lord has done for me."

Let whosoever will, now come: In mercy’s breast there still is room. Scripture: Luke 14:22 Languages: English

Comfort to such who seek a risen Jesus

Author: Dr. Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CXLIV (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Encouragement and invitation To such who seek a risen Jesus First Line: Ye humble souls, that seek the Lord Lyrics: 1 Ye humble souls, that seek the Lord, Chase all your fears away: And bow with pleasure down to see The place where Jesus lay. 2 Thus low the Lord of life was brought: Such wonders love can do: Thus cold in death that bosom lay, Which throbb'd and bled for you. 3 A moment give a loose to grief, Let grateful sorrows rise; And wash the bloody stains away, With torrents from your eyes. 4 Then dry your tears, and tune your songs, The Savior lives again; Not all the bolts and bars of death The Conqueror could detain. 5 High o'er th' angelic bands he rears His once dishonor'd head; And thro' unnumber'd years he reigns, Who dwelt among the dead. 6 With joy like his shall every saint His empty tomb survey; Then rise, with his ascending Lord, To realms of endless day.

What— are your crimes of crimson hue? His promise is for ever true, He'll wash you white as snow. 2 Backsliding souls, fill'd with your ways, Whose weeping nights, and wretched days, In bitterness are spent: Return to Jesus— he'll reveal His lovely face, and sweetly heal What you so much lament. 3 Tried souls! look up—he says 'Tis I— He loves you still, but means to try If faith will bear the test; The Lord has giv'n the chiefest good, He shed for you his precious blood; O trust him for the rest! 4 Ye tender souls, draw hither too, Ye grateful, highly favor'd few, Who feel the debt you owe; Press on, the Lord hath more to give; By faith upon him daily live, And you shall find it so.

Deep in the Dust before thy Throne

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CXXIV (1766) Topics: Weak Saints encouraged by Christ Lyrics: 1 Deep in the Dust before thy Throne Our Guilt and our Disgrace we own; Great God we own th' unhappy Name Whence sprang our Nature and our Shame. 2 Adam the Sinner: At his Fall, Death, like a Conqu'ror seiz'd us all; A Thousand new-born Babes are dead, By fatal Union to their Head. 3 But while our Spirits fill'd with Awe, Behold the Terrors of thy Law; We sing the Honours of thy Grace, That sent to save our ruin'd Race. 4 We sing thine everlasting Son, Who joined our Nature to his own; Adam the Second, from the Dust, Raises the Ruins of the First. [5 By the Rebellion of one Man Through all his Seed the Mischief ran; And by one Man's Obedience now Are all his seed made righteous too.] 6 Where Sin did reign, and Death abound; There have the Sons of Adam found Abounding Life; there glorious Grace Reigns through the Lord our Righteousness.
