"Where is the blessedness"

Author: John Newton Appears in 344 hymnals Topics: Conflict With Sin; Conflict With Sin First Line: Sweet was the time when first I felt Lyrics: 1 Sweet was the time when first I felt The Saviour's pardoning blood Applied to cleanse my soul from guilt, And bring me home to God. 2 Soon as the morn the light revealed, His praises tuned my tongue; And, when the evening shade prevailed, His love was all my song. 3 In prayer, my soul drew near the Lord, And saw his glory shine; And when I read his holy word, I called each promise mind. 4 Now, when the evening shade prevails, My soul in darkness mourns; And when the morn the light reveals, No light to me returns. 5 Rise, Saviour! help me to prevail, And make my soul thy care; I know thy mercy cannot fail, Let me that mercy share.

Fed by thy living bread, all hunger past, we shall be satisfied, and filled at last. 4 Come then, O holy Christ; feed us, we pray; touch with thy pierced hand each common day, making this earthly life full of thy grace, till at thy side in love we find our place.
