Cleansed from Sin

Author: Fanny J. Crosby Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: A sinner lost amid the gloom Lyrics: 1 A sinner lost amid the gloom That darker, deeper grew, Till low I heard my Saviour’s voice, And well its tones I knew: He found me helpless, weak and faint, He bade me look and live; I told him all, he smiles and said, I freely all forgive. Refrain: Cleansed from sin, I’m cleansed from sin, Washed in the crimson tide That flows at the cross, the precious cross, Where once my Saviour died. 2 A sinner lost: with heedless step The downward path I trod, A rebel then, but now a child, A happy child of God: I lean confiding on his arm, He calms my every fear; I walk with him in pastures green, By fountains cool and clear. [Refrain] 3 A sinner lost: but saved by grace; Oh, wondrous grace divine, That stooped to life me from the dust, And saved a soul like mine! My heart is full of grateful song, I sing his love and power Who clothes me in his righteousness, And keeps me hour by hour. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [A sinner lost amid the gloom]

What hast Thou for Me?

Author: Jennie Garnett Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O servant that, knowing Thy Master's command Refrain First Line: What hast thou for me Lyrics: 1 O servant that, knowing thy Master’s command, Still withholdeth from labor thy heart and thy hand, He is calling this moment and saying to thee,— For thy fruit I have waited,—what hast thou for me? Refrain: What hast thou for me? what hast thou for me? For thy fruit I have waited,—what hast thou for me? 2 The dews of his mercy have dropped like the rain, He has crowned thee with blessings again and again, But, alas! disappointed, he saith unto thee,— For thy fruit I have waited,—what hast thou for me? [Refrain] 3 Remember the fig tree that fruitless was found, And they said, cut it down, for it cumbers the ground; But the Lord of the vineyard, how patient with thee! For thy fruit I have waited,—what hast thou for me? [Refrain] 4 While others are reaping and binding the sheaves Wilt thou bring as thy off’ring a bundle of leaves? Still thy kind, loving Master is saying to thee,— For thy fruit I have waited,—what hast thou for me? [Refrain] Used With Tune: [O servant that, knowing Thy Master's command]

Safe beneath his Wings

Author: Jennie Garnett Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O the love that fills my soul Lyrics: 1 O the love that fills my soul, O the floods of joy that roll, While I lean and sweetly rest On my dear Redeemer’s breast; There no bliss of earth can charm, There no dread of ill can harm, Faith to me the promise brings, I am safe beneath his wings. O the love that fills my soul, O the floods of joy that roll, While I lean and sweetly rest On my dear Redeemer’s breast. 2 Safe from thorns that pierce my feet, Safe from storms that wildly beat, Safe from deep and throbbing care, Safe with him who answers prayer; There my heart, my thought, my will, All subdued, are calm and still; Faith in tones of rapture sings, I am safe beneath his wings. Safe from thorns that pierce my feet, Safe from storms that wildly beat, Safe from deep and throbbing care, Safe with him who answers prayer. 3 Sealed with blood, oh, can it be! Sealed with blood he shed for me; I am his and he is mine, I the branch and he the vine, Thus I lean and sweetly rest On my Lord and Saviour’s breast, Till my soul shall glide away Into realms of endless day. Sealed with blood, oh, can it be! Sealed with blood he shed for me; I am his and he is mine, I the branch and he the vine. Used With Tune: [O the love that fills my soul]

James Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Under his wings I am hiding Refrain First Line: Under his wings, under his wings Lyrics: 1 Under his wings I am hiding, Till all the storms be o’erpast; Safe ‘neath his shadow abiding, While life’s cold winter shall last. Refrain: Under his wings, under his wings, Safely I’m hiding under his wings; Hiding, Hiding, under his wings. 2 Calm in this covert reposing, Here I am finding sweet rest;— While his strong arms are inclosing, What can my spirit molest? [Refrain] 3 Myriads of foes are surrounding, Striving my peace to destroy; Heavenly comforts abounding, Fill all my being with joy! [Refrain] 4 What though I hear the commotion Fearfully rage? While I cling Close to his breast, in devotion, Joyously still I can sing! [Refrain] 5 Jesus, dear Saviour, my “Tower,” Safely in thee do I hide, Shielded from Satan’s dread power, Blest will I ever abide.
