Quiet, Lord, my froward heart

Author: John Newton Appears in 248 hymnals Used With Tune: GETHSEMANE

Author: Augustus Montague Toplady Appears in 45 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Weary sinner, keep thine eyes On the atoning Sacrifice: There the Incarnate Deity Numbered with transgressors see: There His Father's absence mourns, Nailed, and bruised, and crowned with thorns. 2 Surely Christ thy griefs hath borne; Weeping soul, no longer mourn: View Him bleeding on the tree, Pouring out His life for thee: There thy every sin He bore; Weeping soul, lament no more. 3 Cast thy guilty soul on Him, Find Him mighty to redeem: At his feet thy burden lay, Look thy doubts and cares away: Now, by faith, the Son embrace, Plead His promise, trust His grace. 4 Lord, Thy arm must be revealed, Ere I can by faith be healed: Since I scarce can look to Thee, Cast a gracious eye on me: At Thy feet myself I lay: Shine, O shine my fears away!

To Avert from Men God's Wrath

Author: John Hus; Martin Luther; Christian Ignatius La Trobe Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To avert from men God’s wrath, Jesus suffered in our stead; by an ignominious death He a full atonement made; and by His most precious blood brought us, sinners, nigh to God. 2 Christ bids each afflicted soul, "Come that I may soothe your grief. No one who is strong and whole needs a doctor for relief; therefore have no fear, draw nigh, that your want I may supply." 3 But examine first your case, whether you be in the faith; do you long for pard’ning grace? Is your only hope His death? Then, how e’er your soul’s oppressed, come, you are a worthy guest. 4 They who Jesus’ mercy knows are from wrath and envy freed; love unto our neighbor shows that we are His flock indeed; thus we may in all our ways show forth our Redeemer’s praise.

Till he come! O let the words

Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 253 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Till he come! O let the words Linger on the trembling chords; Let the little while between In their golden light be seen; Let us think how heav'n and home Lie beyond that "Till he come." 2 When the weary ones we love Enter on their rest above, Seems the earth so poor and vast, All our life-joy overcast? Hush, be every murmur dumb: It is only till he come. 3 Clouds and conflicts round us press: Would we have one sorrow less? All the sharpness of the cross, All that tells the world is loss, Death and darkness, and the tomb, Only whisper "Till he come." 4 See, the feast of love is spread, Drink the wine, and break the bread: Sweet memorials,--till the Lord Call us round his heav'nly board; Some from earth, from glory some, Severed only till he come. Amen. Topics: The Church The Lord's Supper; Heaven Anticipated Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:26 Used With Tune: AJALON (REDHEAD NO. 76)

Earth to earth and dust to dust

Author: Anon. Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Earth to earth and dust to dust, Lord, we own the sentence just; Head and tongue, and hand and heart, All in guilt have borne their part; Righteous is the common doom, All must moulder in the tomb. 2 Like the seed in spring-time sown, Like the leaves in autumn strown, Low these goodly frames shall lie, All our pomp and glory die; Soon the spoiler seeks his prey, Soon he bears us all away. 3 Yet the seed, upraised, again Clothes with green the smiling plain; Onward as the seasons move, Leaves and blossoms deck the grove; And shall we forgotten lie, Lost forever when we die? 4 Lord, from nature's gloomy night Turn we to the gospel's light; Thou didst triumph o'er the grave, Thou wilt all thy people save; Ransomed by thy blood they rise, Mounting victors to the skies.
