Before the earth or seas were made

Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #572 (1844) Meter: 8.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Before the earth or seas were made, Jesus was chosen as our Head, The Father’s first Elect; In him the church was chosen too, And he engaged to bring them through; Nor will he them neglect. 2 He undertook the care and charge, And promised they should walk at large, And all his glory view. Anon the Father’s set time came, Nor did the Saviour then disdain The Father’s will to do. 3 “Behold him now,” the Father cries; “Ye mourning souls, lift up your eyes And view your Saviour dear. In him my soul delighteth well; My great commands he shall fulfil, And banish all your fear. 4 “Ye tried, ye tempted sinners, look To my Elect, who undertook To ransom you with blood. In him I’m ever, ever pleased, And you shall of your pain be eased, And see a smiling God. 5 “Whatever be your frame of mind, You never will perfection find, But in the Lord alone. No spot nor wrinkle can I see In them that unto Jesus flee; For they and he are one.” Topics: Christ All and In All Scripture: Isaiah 42:1 Languages: English

The Beggar's Needs all in Christ

Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #589 (1844) Meter: 8.8.6 First Line: A beggar, vile and base, I come Lyrics: 1 A beggar, vile and base, I come, Without a friend, without a home, And knock at mercy’s door; A friendless, helpless wretch indeed, Nor have I one good work to plead, Yet crave a living store. 2 My wants are great and many too; O Lamb of God, some pity show, Or I must surely die; No other hand can help but thee; I’ve tried the rest, and plainly see They cannot me supply. 3 But though my wants are very great, In Jesus they most richly meet; With him I’ve all the rest; And wilt thou give thyself to me? From sin and Satan set me free? Then I’m completely blest. 4 Source of delight! Fountain of bliss! In thee I all things do possess; My treasure is divine; With holy wonder I adore The God who thus does bless the poor, And make their faces shine. Topics: Salvation and Free Grace Languages: English

"Mighty to save"

Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #592 (1844) Meter: 8.8.6 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.
