Author: Walter Shirley Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #557 (1970) First Line: Sweet the moments, rich in blessings Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing,
Which before the cross I spend;
Life, and health, and peace possessing
From the sinner's dying Friend.
2 Truly blessed is this station,
Low before His cross I'll lie,
While I see divine compassion
Beaming in His gracious eye.
3 For Thy sorrows we adore Thee,
For the pains that wrought our peace;
Gracious Savior! we implore Thee,
In our souls Thy love increase!
4 Here we feel our sins forgiven,
While upon the Lamb we gaze;
And our thoughts are all of heaven,
And our lips o'erflow with praise.
5 Lord, in loving contemplation,
fix our hearts and eyes on Thee,
Till we taste Thy full salvation,
And Thine unveiled glory see. Topics: Comfort; Passion and Cross Languages: English Tune Title: BROCKLESBURY
