My Heart, Prepare To Give Account
Author: P. C. Paulsen; H. A. Brorson Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #69 (1930) Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 My heart, prepare to give account
Of all thy sore transgression;
To Him Who is all mercies' Fount
Make thou a full confession.
Recount what thou in all these years
Of sin and guilt hast hoarded,
And what in God's own book appears,
With faithfulness recorded.
2 Soon will thy earthly course be run,
No single day returning;
But what thou good or ill hast done,
Thy God is now discerning;
When He to judgment calleth thee,
Thou shalt with fear and trembling
Thy sinful deeds in order see,
No longer then dissembling.
3 Here thy conceit and ill desire
Thou many times concealest;
Thy evil lust, that burning fire,
Thou nevermore revealest;
Thou thinkest, This is hidden well,
No soul shall ever know it.
The day of judgment all shall tell,
Its searching light will show it.
4 Remember, then, how swiftly went
The years of grace He gave thee;
What if today His call were sent,
Without a chance to save thee!
If thou hast still a few more days
To be for death preparing,
Then hasten to amend thy ways,
By grace good fruitage bearing.
5 O bend thy knees, thy sins to take
Before God's throne in heaven,
And pray that grace for Jesus' sake
To thee be freely given.
Then by His power from above,
By His own Holy Spirit,
Thou shalt increase in faith and love,
Till heaven thou inherit. Languages: English Tune Title: BERGGREN

Be thou my guardian and my guide
Author: Isaac Williams, 1802-1865 Hymnal: Complete Anglican Hymns Old and New #69 (2000) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Temptation, Penitence and Forgiveness Lyrics: 1 Be thou my guardian and my guide,
and hear me when I call;
let not my slipp'ery footsteps slide,
and hold me lest I fall.
2 The world, the flesh, and Satan dwell
around the path I tread;
O save me from the snares of hell,
thou quick'ner of the dead.
3 And if I tempted am to sin,
and outward things are strong,
do thou, O Lord, keep watch within,
and save my soul from wrong.
4 Still let me ever watch and pray,
and feel that I am frail;
that if the tempter cross my way,
yet he may not prevail. Scripture: 1 John 2:16 Languages: English Tune Title: ABRIDGE
Be thou my guardian and my guide
Who Will Join The Throng To Heaven?
Author: P. C. Paulsen; H. A. Brorson Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #70 (1930) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 Who will join the throng to heaven?
Come, our Savior calleth thee.
Come while time to thee is given,
Humbly bow to Him the knee.
Turn from sin thy face away,
With the world no longer stray;
Greater things thy soul must treasure
Than the world's vain lust and pleasure.
2 Hast thou spent thy days in chasing
Phantom pleasures luring thee?
Hast thou fondly been embracing
Sin with all its agony?
Oh, then turn to Calvary,
Let the cross thy solace be,
With a heart contrite and lowly
Give thyself to Jesus wholly.
3 He alone can safely guide thee
On the way to yonder shore,
Thou art safe with Him beside thee,
Who hath help for thee in store,
But without Him thou shalt fail;
All thy wisdom, like a tale,
In the final test shall perish;
Jesus only thou must cherish.
4 Come, ye Christians, storms defying,
Courage take from God above,
While on Him alone relying,
One in faith, in hope, in love.
Keep ye Jesus ever near
And His holy name revere.
Help the weak and erring brother,
And in love serve one another.
5 It is time that we be starting,
Death is swiftly drawing nigh;
Time, that we should be departing
For a place with Christ on high.
Take His cross and start today,
For we dare not risk delay;
Come while time to thee is given;
Who will join the throng to heaven?

And Wilt Thou Pardon, Lord
Author: J. M. Neale; Joseph of the Studium Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #71 (1930) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 And wilt Thou pardon, Lord,
A sinner such as I?
Although Thy book his crimes record,
Of such a crimson dye?
2 So deep are they engraved,
So terrible their fear--
The righteous scarcely can be saved,
And where shall I appear?
3 O Thou, Physician blest,
Make clean my guilty soul;
And me, by many a sins oppressed,
Restore and keep me whole!
4 I know not how to praise
Thy mercy and Thy love;
But deign my soul from earth to raise,
And learn from Thee above.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BRIDE
And Wilt Thou Pardon, Lord
With Broken Heart And Contrite Sigh
Author: Cornelius Elven Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #72 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 With broken heart and contrite sigh,
A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry;
Thy pard'ning grace is rich and free:
O God, be merciful to me.
2 I smite upon my troubled breast,
With deep and conscience guilt oppressed;
Christ and His cross my only plea:
O God, be merciful to me.
3 Far off I stand with tearful eyes
Nor dare uplift them to the skies;
But Thou dost all my anguish see:
O God, be merciful to me.
4 Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done,
Can for a single sin atone;
To Calvary alone I flee:
O God, be merciful to me.
5 And when, redeemed from sin and hell,
With all the ransomed throng I dwell,
My raptured song shall ever be,
God has been merciful to me.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CROSS

That Thou forgiv'st iniquity
And helpest me in sin's distress,

We now enjoy the heav'nly good
Through Jesus' holy, precious blood.

Help us in holiness to live;
Preserve to us, till life is spent,
Thy Holy Word and Sacrament.
