Author: Berridge Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Adoption First Line: Well, canst thou read thy heart Lyrics: 1 Well, canst thou read thy heart, And feel the plague of sin? Does Sinai’s thunder make thee start, And conscience roar within? 2 Expect to find no balm On nature’s barren ground; All human medicines will do harm; They only skin the wound. 3 To Jesus Christ repair, And knock at mercy’s gate; His blood alone can wash thee fair, And make thy conscience sweet. 4 In season due he seals A pardon on the breast; The wounds of sin his Spirit heals, And brings the gospel-rest. 5 [So comes the peace of God, Which cheers the conscience well; And love shed in the heart abroad, More sweet than we can tell.] 6 Adopted sons perceive Their kindred to the sky; The Father’s pardoning love receive, And “Abba, Father,” cry.

God our Father

Author: C. Winkworth Appears in 62 hymnals Topics: Adoption First Line: Here I can firmly rest Lyrics: 1 Here I can firmly rest; I dare to boast of this, That God, the highest and the best, My Friend and Father is. 2 Naught have I of my own, Naught in the life I lead; What Christ hath given, that alone I dare in faith to plead. 3 I rest upon the ground Of Jesus and his blood; It is through him that I have found My soul's eternal good. 4 At cost of all I have, At cost of life and limb, I cling to God who yet shall save; I will not turn from him. 5 His Spirit in me dwells, O'er all my mind he reigns; My care and sadness he dispels, And soothes away my pains. 6 He prospers day by day His work within my heart, Till I have strength and faith to say, "Thou, God, my Father art!"
