O Sacred Head, Now Wounded
Author: Bernard of Clairvaux, 12th C.; Paul Gerhardt; James W. Alexander Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 724 hymnals Topics: The Service of the Word Songs of Confession First Line: O sacred head now wounded Lyrics: 1 O sacred head, now wounded,
with grief and shame weighed down,
now scornfully surrounded
with thorns thine only crown:
O sacred head, what glory,
what bliss till now was thine;
yet, though despised and gory,
I joy to ccall thee mine.
2 What thou, my Lord, hast suffered
was all for sinners' gain;
mine, mine was the transgression,
but thine the deadly pain.
Lo, here I fall, my Savior!
'Tis I deserve thy place;
look on me with thy favor,
and grant to me thy grace.
3 What language shall I borrow
to thank thee, dearest friend,
for this thy dying sorrow,
thy pity without end?
O make me thine forever;
and should I fainting be,
Lord, let me never, never
outlive my love to thee.

who comes to set us free,
who visits and redeems us,
and grants us liberty!

of freedom and release,
God shall fulfill the promise
to bring our people peace.
2 Now from the house of David
a child of grace is giv’n,
a Savior comes among us
to raise us up to heav’n.
Before him goes the herald,
forerunner in the way,
the prophet of salvation,
the harbinger of day.
3 On all by death imprisoned
the sun begins to rise,
the dawning of forgiveness
upon the sinner’s eyes,
to guide the feet of pilgrims
along the paths of peace.
Oh, bless our God and Savior
with songs that never cease! Scripture: Psalm 146:5-9 Used With Tune: WEBB Text Sources: based on Luke 1:68-79; Psalm Praise

Tu dulce voz de amor,
Que, desde el árbol de la cruz;
Invita al pecador.
Yo soy pecador,
Nada hay bueno en mí;
Ser objeto de tu amor
Deseo, y vengo a Ti.
2 Tú ofreces el perdón
De toda iniquidad,
Si arrepentido el corazón
Implora tu piedad.
Yo soy pecador;
Ten de mí piedad,
Quita todo mi dolor
Y borra mi maldad.
3 Tú ofreces aumentar
La fe del que creyó,
Y gracia sobre gracia dar
A quien en Ti esperó.
Creo en Ti Señor,
Sólo espero en Ti:
Haz que tu infinito amor
Habite siempre en mí.
Amén.

Rock of Ages
Author: Augustus Toplady Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 2,900 hymnals Topics: liturgical Confession Songs First Line: Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee;
let the water and the blood,
from thy wounded side which flowed,
be of sin the double cure;
save from wrath and make me pure.
2 Not the labors of my hands
can fulfill thy law's demands;
could my zeal no respite know,
could my tears forever flow,
all for sin could not atone;
thou must save, and thou alone.
3 Nothing in my hand I bring,
simply to the cross I cling;
naked, come to thee for dress;
helpless, look to thee for grace;
foul, I to the fountain fly;
wash me, Savior, or I die.
4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
when mine eyes shall close in death,
when I soar to worlds unknown,
see thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee.
United Methodist Hymnal, 1989

Amazing grace! (how sweet the sound)
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,419 hymnals Topics: liturgical Confession Songs Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace (how sweet the sound)
that saved a wretch like me!
I once was lost, but now am found,
was blind, but now I see.
2 'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear,
and grace my fears relieved;
how precious did that grace appear
the hour I first believed!
3 Through many dangers, toils and snares
I have already come:
'tis grace has brought me safe thus far,
and grace will lead me home.
4 The Lord has promised good to me,
his word my hope secures;
he will my shield and portion be
as long as life endures.
5 Yes, when this flesh and heart shall fail,
and mortal life shall cease:
I shall possess, within the veil,
a life of joy and peace.
6 The earth shall soon dissolve like snow,
the sun forbear to shine;
but God, who called me here below,
will be forever mine.
