O Thou before whose Presence

Author: S. J. Stone Appears in 68 hymnals Topics: Temperance and National Temperance Lyrics: 1 O Thou before whose presence Naught evil may come in, Yet who dost look in mercy Down on this world of sin; O give us noble purpose To set the sin-bound free, And Christ-like tender pity To seek the lost for Thee. 2 Fierce is our subtle foeman: The forces at his hand With woes that none can number Despoil the pleasant land; All they who war against them, In strife so keen and long, Must in their Savior's armor Be stronger than the strong. 3 So hast Thou wrought among us The great things that we see: For things that are we thank Thee, And for the things to be. For bright hope is uplifting Faint hands and feeble knees, To strive beneath Thy blessing For greater things than these. 4 Lead on, O Love and Mercy, O Purity and Power, Lead on till peace eternal Shall close this battle-hour: Till all who prayed and struggled To set their brethren free, In triumph meet to praise Thee, Most Holy Trinity.

Rescue the Perishing

Author: Frances J. Van Alstyne Appears in 785 hymnals Topics: Temperance and National Temperance First Line: Rescue the perishing, care for the dying Refrain First Line: Rescue the perishing, care for the dying Lyrics: 1 Rescue the perishing, care for the dying, Snatch them in pity from sin and the grave; Weep o’er the erring one, lift up the fallen, Tell them of Jesus the mighty to save. Chorus: Rescue the perishing, care for the dying; Jesus is merciful, Jesus will save. 2 Though they are slighting Him, still He is waiting, Waiting the penitent child to receive: Plead with them earnestly, plead with them gently; He will forgive if they only believe. [Chorus] 3 Down in the human heart, crushed by the tempter; Feelings lie buried that grace can restore; Touched by a loving hand, wakened by kindness, Chords that were broken will vibrate once more. [Chorus] 4 Rescue the perishing, duty demands it; Strength for thy labor the Lord will provide: Back to the narrow way patiently win them; Tell the poor wand’rer a Savior has died. [Chorus] Used With Tune: RESCUE THE PERISHING
