"Mighty to save"

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Mighty to save is Christ the Lamb Lyrics: 1 Mighty to save is Christ the Lamb; Let all the saints adore his name, And make his goodness known; With one accord proclaim abroad, The wonders of their Saviour, God, Whose blood did once atone. 2 Mighty to save! nor all sin’s power Can hold the sinner in that hour When Jesus calls him home; Nor Moses, with his iron rod, Can keep the trembling soul from God, When the set time is come. 3 [Mighty to save! he saves from hell; A mighty Saviour suits me well; A helpless wretch am I; With sin oppressed, by law condemned, With neither feet nor legs to stand, Nor wings from wrath to fly.] 4 [Mighty to save! he saves from death; O may I, with my latest breath, His mighty power proclaim. Ye sinners lost, and wretched too, He came to save such worms as you, And mighty is his name.] 5 [Mighty to save! let Zion sing The honours of her God and King, Whose love no change can know. With cheerful hearts, and cheerful voice, We’ll in the mighty God rejoice, And sing his praise below.] 6 And when the icy hand of death Shall steal away our mortal breath, Our joy shall still increase; Yes, with a loud immortal tongue, We’ll sing, and Christ shall be our song, In realms of endless peace.

The Elect Ransomed

Author: Adams Meter: 8.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Our Jesus loves his dear elect Lyrics: 1 Our Jesus loves his dear elect; With glory they shall all be decked Before his Father’s face. Not one of them for whom he bled, But shall with joy behold their Head, In heaven their dwelling-place. 2 [They are the travail of his soul; His sweetest thoughts on them did roll From all eternity. And, as the jewels of his crown, He’ll give them honour, peace, renown, And full felicity.] 3 Their sins upon him all were laid, And he the dreadful debt has paid, (A debt no more to pay;) Their Surety in their law-place stood, Appeased stern Justice with his blood, And bore their sins away.

'Tis not as led by custom's voice

Author: Norman Meter: 8.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 ’Tis not as led by custom’s voice, We make these ways our favoured choice, And thus with zeal pursue; No; Zion’s great and gracious Lord Has, in the precepts of his word, Enjoined us thus to do. 2 Thou everlasting, gracious King, Assist us now thy grace to sing, And still direct our way To those bright realms of peace and rest, Where all the exulting tribes are blessed With one great choral day.

Boasting Excluded

Author: Kent Meter: 8.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals First Line: Let Zion, in her songs, record Lyrics: 1 Let Zion, in her songs, record The honours of her dying Lord Triumphant over sin; How sweet the song, there’s none can say But he whose sins are washed away, Who feels the same within. 2 We claim no merit of our own, But, self-condemned before thy throne, Our hopes on Jesus place; In heart, in lip, in life depraved, Our theme shall be, a sinner saved, And praise redeeming grace. 3 We’ll sing the same while life shall last, And when, at the archangel’s blast Our sleeping dust shall rise, Then in a song for ever new The glorious theme we’ll still pursue, Throughout the azure skies. 4 [Prepared of old, at God’s right hand, Bright, everlasting mansions stand, For all the blood-bought race; And till we reach those seats of bliss, We’ll sing no other song but this: A sinner saved by grace.] Topics: Salvation and Free Grace

Christ his People's Surety

Author: Berridge Meter: 8.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: For wretched strangers, such as I Lyrics: 1 For wretched strangers such as I, The Saviour left his native sky, And surety would become; He undertakes for sinners lost, And, having paid the utmost cost, Returns triumphant home. 2 A judgment bond against me lay, Law charges, too, which he must pay, But found a smarting debt. The garden scene begins his woes, And fetches agonising throes, And draws a bloody sweat. 3 His back with hardy stripes is hewed, Till flakes of gore, and streams of blood, Besmear the frighted ground! A scornful and a smarting crown His holy head is thrust upon, And thorns begird it round. 4 He smarts with nails that pierce his feet, And smarts with hanging all his weight Upon the accursèd tree! He smarts beneath a Father’s rod, And roars aloud, “Why, O my God, Hast thou forsaken me?” 5 [May all my Saviour’s love and smart, Be sweetly graven on my heart, And with me fast abide; And let me sing thy praises well, And love thee more than I can tell, And trust in none beside.] Topics: Offices and Characters of Christ
