Sweet Home

Author: H. R. Bishop Appears in 501 hymnals First Line: 'Mid scenes of confusion and creature complaints Refrain First Line: Home, home, sweet, sweet home Lyrics: 1 ’Mid scenes of confusion and creature complaints, How sweet to my soul is communion with saints; To find at the banquet of mercy there’s room, And feel in the presence of Jesus at home. Chorus: Home, home, sweet, sweet home, Prepare me, dear Saviour, for glory my home. 2 Sweet bonds that unite all the children of peace, And thrice gracious Jesus, whose love cannot cease, Tho, oft from Thy presence in sadness I roam, I long to behold thee in glory at home. [Chorus] 3 Whate'er thou deniest, oh, give me thy grace! The Spirit's sure witness, and smiles of thy face; Endue me with patience to wait at thy throne, And find, even now, a sweet foretaste of home. [Chorus] 4 I long, dearest Saviour, in-thy beauty to shine, No more as an exile in sorrow to pine; But in thy bright image to rise from the tomb, With gloried millions to praise thee at home. [Chorus] Used With Tune: ['Mid scenes of confusion and creature complaints]

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 2,434 hymnals First Line: Alas! and did my Saviour bleed Refrain First Line: Oh, the blood of Jesus Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed And did my Sovereign die? Would He devote that sacred head For such a worm as I? Refrain: Oh, the blood of Jesus, The precious blood of Jesus; Oh, the blood of Jesus It washes from all sin. 2 Was it for crimes that I had done He groaned upon the tree? Amazing pity! grace unknown! And love beyond degree! [Refrain] 3 Well might the sun in darkness hide And shut his glories in, When Christ, the mighty Maker died For man the creature's sin. [Refrain] 4 Thus might I hide my blushing face While His dear cross appears; Dissolve my heart in thankfulness, And melt mine eyes to tears. [Refrain] 5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay The debt of love I owe: Here, Lord, I give my self away,— 'Tis all that I can do. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Alas! and did my Saviour bleed]
