Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: HOoS1926 #106 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7 First Line: Come to Calv'ry's holy mountain Lyrics: 1 Come to Calv'ry's holy mountain,
Sinners, ruined by the fall;
Here a pure and healing fountain
Flows to you, to me, to all,
In a full, perpetual tide,
Opened when our Saviour died.
2 Come in poverty and meanness,
Come defiled, without, within;
From infection and uncleanness,
From the leprosy of sin,
Wash your robes and make them white;
Ye shall walk with God in light.
3 Come in sorrow and contrition,
Wounded, impotent, and blind;
Here the guilty free remission,
Here the troubled peace may find:
Health this fountain will restore;
He that drinks shall thirst no more.
4 He that drinks shall live forever;
'Tis a soul-renewing flood:
God is faithful; God will never
Break His covenant of blood,
Signed when our Redeemer died,
Sealed when He was glorified.
Amen. Topics: Church Year Holy Week; Holy Week; Good Friday; Trinity, Eleventh Sunday; Blood of Christ; Christ Work of; Names and Office of Christ Brother; Covenant Christ's; Mercy of God; Sin Forgiveness of Languages: English Tune Title: NAAR MIT ØIE, TRAET AF MØIE
