There Is A Sea Of Mercy

Author: C. K. Solberg Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home (2nd ed.) #173 (1928) Topics: Call and Repentance Lyrics: 1 There is a sea of mercy, Wide as eternity; It gives the vile and guilty Salvation full and free; It is the blood of Jesus, Come, sinner, do not weep, From sin and guilt5 it cleanses, "Launch out into the deep!" 2 There is a sea of promise, Its waters, deep and wide, Most safely on its bosom You reach the other side. It is the word of Scripture With power to save and keep, So full of sweet assurance, "Launch out into the deep!" 3 There is a sea of service That you must daily brave; In spite of raging tempest, Sail out the lost to save! O Christian, do not linger, Shake off the sense of sleep, Away, away to rescue, "Launch out into the deep!" 4 Tho' doubts shall make you falter, And foes shall make you fear, Tho' disappointments gather And sure defeat seems near. Tho' storms are daily raging With fierce and awful sweep, If Jesus is your pilot, "Launch out into the deep!" Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a sea of mercy]

Who Will Join The Throng To Heaven?

Author: H. A. Brorson Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #174 (1927) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Topics: Call and Repentance Lyrics: 1 Who will join the throng to heaven? Come, our Savior calleth thee. Come while yet the chance is given, Humbly bow to Him the knee. Turn from sin thy face away, With the world no longer stray; Greater things are thee awaiting Than the world's despair and hating. 2 Hast thou spent thy days in chasing Phantoms of delight and glee? Hast thou fondly been embracing Sin with all its agony? Oh then turn to Calvary, Let the cross thy solace be, With a heart contrite and lowly Give thyself to Jesus wholly. 3 He alone can safely guide thee On the way to yonder shore, Thou art safe with Him beside thee, Having help for thee in store, But without Him thou shalt fail, All thy wisdom, like a tale, In the final test shall perish; Jesus only thou must cherish. 4 Come ye Christians brave the weather, Courage take from God above, Like a phalanx stand together, Being one in faith and love. Keep ye Jesus ever near And His holy name revere. Help and strengthen one another Ev'ry selfish tho't to smother. 5 It is time we should be starting, Death is swiftly drawing nigh; Time, that we should be departing For a place with Christ on high. Take His cross and start today All who dare not risk delay; Come while yet the chance is given, Who will join the throng to heaven?

Accept me, Lord, I seek Thy grace; And let me see a Father's face! 4 With that blest thief my pray'r I make, Remember for Thy mercy’s sake! With that poor publican I cry, Be merciful, O God, most high! With that lost prodigal I fain, Back to my home would turn again! 5 Mourn, mourn, my soul, with earnest care, And raise to Christ the contrite pray'r; Oh, Thou who freely wast made poor, My sorrows and my sins to cure, Me, poor of all good works, embrace, Enriching with Thy boundless grace!

Dost Thou Know The Living Fountain

Author: A. Timm Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #181 (1927) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.7 Topics: Call and Repentance Lyrics: 1 Dost thou know the living fountain Whence the stream of grace doth flow? Dry the streams from snow capp'd mountain, Yet this stream shall fuller grow. From the very heart of God Flows this river deep and broad Unto ev'ry land and nation, Bringing mercy and salvation. 2 Come unto the living waters, Cried the prophets, do not shrink, God invites His sons and daughters: He that thirsteth, come and drink. With this water God imparts Health and strength to sin-sick hearts Why, then are ye hesitating When the Lord with grace is waiting? 3 With us is the day appointed, God has kept His gracious word. He has come, the Lord’s anointed, Men have seen the promised Lord. Saints of God from ev'ry race Found in Him the Fount of grace, And, with joy that never ceases, Said: The Fount of Life is Jesus. 4 Hasten, then, and all assemble, At this fountain pure and strong, Come, ye souls that fear and tremble, Come, ye old, and come, ye young. Lo, the hour of grace is here; Draw, then, to the fountain near. Soon, ah, soon the day is over, Quickly night the world may cover. Languages: English Tune Title: [Dost thou know the living fountain]
