Distinguishing Grace

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CX (1792) Topics: Salvation by Grace First Line: In songs of sublime adoration and praise Lyrics: 1 In songs of sublime adoration and praise, Ye pilgrims for Sion who press, Break forth, and extol the great ancient of days, His rich and distinguishing grace. 2 His love from eternity fix'd upon you, Broke forth and discover'd its flame, And now with the cords of his kindness he draws, And brings us to love his great name. 3 O had he not pitied the state you were in, Your bosoms his love had ne'er felt, You all would have liv'd, would have dy'd too in sin And sunk with the load of our guilt. 4 What was there in man that could merit esteem, Or give the Creator delight? 'Twas "even so, Father," you ever must sing, "Because it seem'd good in thy sight." 5 'Twas all of thy grace we were bro't to obey While others were suffer'd to go, The road which by nature we chose as our way, Which leads to the regions of woe. 6 Then give all the glory to his holy name; To him all the glory belongs; Be yours the high joys still to sound forth his fame, And crown him in each of your songs. Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3 Languages: English

Out of the depths I cry to Thee

Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #391 (1899) Topics: Salvation By Grace Lyrics: 1 Our of the depths I cry to Thee, Lord God, O hear my wailing! Thy gracious ear incline to me, And make my prayer availing! On my misdeeds in mercy look, O deign to blot them from Thy book, Or who can stand before Thee? 2 Thou canst be merciful while just,-- This is my hope's foundation; On Thy redeeming grace I trust,-- Grant me, then, Thy salvation. Shielded by Thee, I stand secure; Thy word is firm, Thy promise sure, And I rely upon Thee. 3 Like those who watch for midnight's hour To hail the dawning morrow, I wait for Thee, I trust Thy power, Unmoved by doubt or sorrow. So thus let Israel hope in Thee, And he shall find Thy mercy free, And Thy redemption plenteous. 4 Where'er the greatest sins abound, By grace they are exceeded; Thy helping hand is always found With aid, where aid is needed: Thy hand, the only hand to save, Will rescue Israel from the grace, And pardon his transgression.
