Author: Mrs. J. C. W. Daly Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Oh, guilty sinner, come and find Refrain First Line: The blood of Jesus intercedes Lyrics: 1 Oh, guilty sinner, come and find Forgiveness full and free, Thro’ precious blood which once was shed By Christ Himself, for thee. This moment, resting on the blood, Thou may’st at once receive Eternal life, the gift to those Who on His name believe. Refrain: The blood of Jesus intercedes, The blood of Jesus intercedes, The blood of Jesus intercedes, Oh, trembling sinner, come. 2 Oh, come, and welcome, to my heart, The blood of Jesus cries; See thy salvation’s work complete, In my great sacrifice. It justifies, it sanctifies, It makes the sinner shine In spotless robes of righteousness Wrought by a hand divine. [Refrain] 3 It arms the soul, by faith, to fight The battles of the Lord, It gives the vict’ry over sin, Thro’ God’s abiding Word. While resting on th’atoning blood, E’en Jordan’s waves are riv’n— It marks the bright ascent to God, It lands the soul in heav’n. [Refrain] 4 There great triumphant songs of praise, Are sung to Him, who died On blood besprinkled Calvary,— Immanuel crucified. Oh, may we now with thankful hearts, Receive Him and adore, Lest He should stand and wait, and knock, And plead with us no more. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Oh, guilty sinner, come and find]

John M. Whyte

1850 - 1927 Person Name: J. M. Whyte Composer of "[Oh, guilty sinner, come and find]" in The Finest of the Wheat No. 2 John M. (Marchant) Whyte. Evangelist, hymn writer, singer, b Paris, Canada West (Ontario), 8 Jun 1850, d Toronto 17 Mar 1927. He studied at the University of Toronto and devoted himself to evangelistic and temperance work. Typical of several hundred songs for which he wrote the words or the music, or both, are 'Canada Shall Yet Be Free,' 'Toronto the Good,' and 'Song of Trust.' Many songs appeared in separate editions published by Toronto News Co or Briggs. With his brother David Albert Whyte he edited Sing Out the Glad News (Briggs 1885) and Songs of Calvary (Briggs 1889). The Great Redemption (Briggs 1894), Nuggets of Gold (Briggs 1898) and Battle Songs of the Cross (1901) contain many of his own melodies. Eight of his hymns are reprinted in CMH vol 5. The editor of the reprint, John Beckwith, has concluded that 'Come Away to Jesus Now' and 'Jesus Is Calling You Now' may have enjoyed a measure of popularity.
