Jesus, if still the same thou art
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #396 (1873) Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 Jesus, if still the same thou art,
If all thy promises are sure,
Set up thy kingdom in my heart,
And make me rich, for I am poor:
To me be all thy treasures given--
The kingdom of an inward heaven.
2 Thou hast pronounced the mourner blest,
And lo! for thee I ever mourn;
I can not, no, I will not rest,
Till thou, my only rest, return--
Till thou, the Prince of peace, appear,
And I receive the Comforter.
3 Where is the blessedness bestowed
On all that hunger after thee!
I hunger now, I thirst for God:
See the poor, fainting sinner, see;
And satisfy with endless peace,
And fill me with thy righteousness.
Jesus, if still the same thou art
The long-lost son, with streaming eyes
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #426 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 The long-lost son, with streaming eyes,
From folly just awake,
Reviews his wanderings with surprise;
His heart begins to break.
2 I starve, he cries, nor can I bear
The famine in this land,
While servants of my father share
The bounty of his hand.
3 With deep repentance I'll return,
And seek my father's face;
Unworthy to be called a son,
I'll ask a servant's place.
4 Far off the father saw him move--
In pensive silence mourn--
And quickly ran, with arms of love,
To welcome his return.
5 Through all the courts the tidings flew,
And spread the joy around;
The angels tuned their harps anew--
The long-lost son is found!
The long-lost son, with streaming eyes
The moment a sinner believes
Author: Hart Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #437 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8. Topics: The Christian System Justification By Faith Lyrics: 1 The moment a sinner believes,
And trusts in his crucified God,
His pardon at once he receives,
Redemption in full through his blood.
2 The faith that unites to the Lamb,
And brings such salvation as this,
Is more than mere fancy or name:
The work of God's Spirit it is.
3 It says to the mountains, Depart,
That stand betwixt God and the soul;
It binds up the broken in heart,
The wounded in conscience makes whole:
4 Bids sin of a crimson-like dye
Be spotless as snow, and as white;
And raises the sinner on high,
To dwell with the angels of light.
The moment a sinner believes
I ask the gift of righteousness
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #459 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian System Adoption And Sanctification Lyrics: 1 I ask the gift of righteousness,
The sin-subduing power,
Power to believe, and go in peace,
And never grieve thee more.
2 I ask the blood-bought pardon sealed,
The liberty from sin,
The grace infused, the love revealed,
The kingdom fixed within.
3 Thou hear'st me for salvation pray,
Thou seest my heart's desire;
Make ready in thy powerful day,
Thy fullness I required.
4 My vehement souls cries out oppressed,
Impatient to be freed;
Nor can I, Lord, nor will I rest
Till I am saved indeed.
5 Art thou not able to convert,
Art thou not willing too,
To change this old rebellious heart,
To conquer and renew?
6 Thou canst, thou wilt, I dare believe:
So arm me with thy power,
That I to sin shall never cleave,
Shall never feel it more.
I ask the gift of righteousness
Jesus, refuge of the weary
Author: Savonarola Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #463 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian System Adoption And Sanctification Lyrics: 1 Jesus, refuge of the weary,
Object of the spirit's love,
Fountain in life's desert dreary,
Saviour from the world above!
2 Oh, how oft thine eyes, offended,
Gazed upon the sinner's fall!
Yet thou on the cross extended
Bore the penalty of all!
3 For our human sake enduring
Tortures infinite in pain;
By thy death our life assuring,
Conquerors, through thee we reign!
4 Jesus, would my heart were burning
With more vivid love for thee!
Would my eyes were ever turning
To thy cross of agony!
5 Would that, on that cross suspended,
I the martyr's palm might win--
Where the Lord, the heaven-descended,
Sinless suffered for my sin!
6 So in praise and rapture blending,
Might my fading eyes grow dim,
While the freed heart rose, ascending,
To the circling Seraphim.
7 Then in glory parted never
From the blessed Saviour's side,
Graven on my heart forever
Be the cross and Crucified.
Jesus, refuge of the weary
