How sure the Scriptures are!

Author: Christopher Idle (born 1938) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Pentecost 22 The Two Ways Lyrics: 1 How sure the Scriptures are! God's vital, urgent word, as true as steel, and far more sharp than any sword: So deep and fine, at his control they pierce where soul and spirit join. 2 They test each human thought, refining like a fire; they measure what we ought to do and to desire: For God know all — exposed it lies before his eyes to whom we call. 3 Let those who hear his voice confronting them today, reject the tempting choice of doubting or delay: For God speaks still — his word is clear, so let us hear and do his will! Scripture: Hebrews 4:12-13 Used With Tune: CROFT'S 136th

O Christ, Thy love Unbounded

Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Way of Salvation Sanctification Lyrics: 1 O Christ, Thy love unbounded, So full, so sweet, so free, Leaves all our thoughts confounded, Whene'er we think of Thee. For us Thou cam'st from heaven, For us didst bleed and die, That, ransomed and forgiven, We might ascend on high. 2 We know that Thou hast bought us, And washed us in Thy blood: We know Thy grace hath brought us As kings and priests to God. We know the blessèd morning, Long looked for, draweth near, When we, at Thy returning, In glory shall appear. 3 O let Thy love constrain us To give our hearts to Thee; Let nothing please or pain us, Apart, O Lord, for Thee; Our joy, our one endeavor, Through suffering, conflict, shame, To serve Thee, gracious Saviour, And magnify Thy Name. Amen. Used With Tune: ANGEL'S STORY (NORWICH) Text Sources: Bosworth's Hymns, 1865

In Thy Wrath and Hot Displeasure

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: The Way of Salvation Repentance Lyrics: 1 In thy wrath and hot displeasure, chasten not thy servant, Lord; let thy mercy, without measure, help and peace to me afford. Heavy is my tribulation, sore my punishment has been; broken by thine indignation, I am troubled by my sin. 2 With my burden of transgression heavy-laden, overborne, humbled low I make confession, for my folly now I mourn. Weak and wounded, I implore thee; Lord, to me thy mercy show; all my pray'r is now before thee, all my trouble thou dost know. 3 Darkness gathers, foes assail me, but I answer not a word; all my friends desert and fail me, only thou my cry hast heard. Lord, in thee am I confiding; thou wilt answer when I call, lest my foes, the good deriding, triumph in thy servant's fall. 4 I am prone to halt and stumble, grief and sorrow dwell within, shame and guilt my spirit humble; I am sorry for my sin. Lord, my God, do not forsake me, let me know that thou art near, under thy protection take me, as my Savior now appear. Scripture: Psalm 38 Used With Tune: RUSTINGTON Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

Make Me a Captive, Lord

Author: George Matheson, 1842-1906 Appears in 125 hymnals Topics: The Christian Way of Life Aspiration and Consecration Lyrics: 1 Make me a captive, Lord, And then I shall be free; Force me to render up my sword, And I shall conqueror be; I sink in life's alarms When by myself I stand; Imprison me within Thine arms, And strong shall be my hand. 2 My heart is weak and poor Until it master find; It has no spring of action sure-- It varies with the wind; It cannot freely move Till Thou hast wrought its chain; Enslave it with Thy matchless love, And deathless it shall reign. 3 My pow'r is faint and low Till I have learned to serve; It wants the needed fire to glow, It wants the breeze to nerve; It cannot drive the world Until itself be driv'n; Its flag can only be unfurled When Thou shalt breathe from heav'n. 4 My will is not my own Till Thou hast made it Thine; If it would reach a monarch's throne It must its crown resign; It only stands unbent, Amid the clashing strife, When on Thy bosom it has leaned, And found in Thee its life. Amen. Used With Tune: PARADOXY
