A guilty Conscience eased by Confession and Pardon
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #56b (1740) Topics: Justification free First Line: While I keep Silence, and conceal Lyrics: 1 While I keep Silence, and conceal
My heavy Guilt within my Heart,
What Torments doth my Conscience feel!
What Agonies of inward Smart!
2 I spread my Sins before the Lord,
And all my secret Faults confess;
Thy Gospel speaks a pard'ning Word,
Thine holy Spirit seals the Grace.
3 For this shall every humble Soul
Make swift Addresses to thy Seat;
When Floods of huge Temptations roll,
There shall they find a blest Retreat.
4 How safe beneath thy Wings I lie,
When Days grow dark and Storms appear;
And when I walk, thy watchful Eye
Shall guide me safe from every Snare. Scripture: Psalm 32 Languages: English
A guilty Conscience eased by Confession and Pardon
O Jesus, Lov og Ære
Author: H. Ravn Hymnal: Salmebog for Lutherske Kristne i Amerika #56 (1919) Topics: Sincerity and Justification Lyrics: O Jesus, Lov og Ære
Ske dig i Evighed!
Du Troen os formere,
Og give os din Fred.
Din Kjærlighed os unde
Saa stærk og Hjertesød,
Hjælp os i alle Stunde,
I Live og i Død! Languages: Norwegian

Rock of ages, cleft for me
Author: A. M. Toplady Hymnal: Church Hymnal for Lutheran Services #57 (1911) Topics: Redemption and Justification Lyrics: 1. ROCK of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee!
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy riven side which flowed
Be of sin the double cure,
Cleanse me from its guilt and power.
2. Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy Law's demands:
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone:
Thou must save, and Thou alone!
3. Nothing in my hand I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress;
Helpless, look to Thee for grace;
Foul, I to the fountain fly;
Wash me, Saviour, or I die!
4. While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyelids close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne
Rock of ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee!

Not Worthy, Lord, to Gather up the Crumbs
Author: E. H. Bickersteth Hymnal: Concordia #60 (1918) Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Not worthy, Lord, to gather up the crumbs
With trembling hand, that from Thy table fall,
A weary, heavy-laden sinner comes
To plead Thy promise and obey Thy call.
2 I am not worthy to be thought Thy child,
Nor sit the last and lowest at Thy board;
Too long a wanderer, and too oft beguiled,
I only ask one reconciling word.
3 One word from Thee, my Lord, one smile, one look,
And I could face the cold, rough world again;
And with that treasure in my heart could brook
The wrath of devils and the scorn of men.
4 And is not mercy Thy prerogative--
Free mercy boundless, fathomless, divine?
Me, Lord, the chief of sinners, me forgive,
And Thine the greater glory, only Thine.
5 I hear Thy voice; Thou bidst me come and rest:
I come, I kneel, I clasp Thy piercèd feet:
Thou bid'st me take my place, a welcome guest
Among Thy saints, and of Thy banquet eat.
6 My praise can only breathe itself in prayer.
My prayer can only lose itself in Thee;
Dwell Thou for ever in my heart, and there,
Lord, let me sup with Thee: sup Thou with me.

Not Worthy, Lord, to Gather up the Crumbs
There is a fountain filled with blood
Author: W. Cowper Hymnal: Church Hymnal for Lutheran Services #62 (1911) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Redemption and Justification Lyrics: 1. THERE is a fountain filled with blood,
Drawn from Immanuel's veins;
And sinners plunged neath that flood,
Lose all their guilty stains.
2. The dying thief rejoiced to see
That fountain in his day;
And there have I, as vile as he,
Washed all my sins away.
3. Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
Shall never lose its power,
Till all the ransomed Church of God
Be saved to sin no more.
4. E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream
Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme
And shall be, till I die.
5. Then, in a nobler, sweeter song,
I'll sing Thy power to save,
When this poor lisping stammering tongue
Lies silent in the grave.

Joy at Immanuel's Birth
Dear Christian people, now rejoice
Author: Luther Hymnal: Hymn Book #68 (1884) Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Dear Christian people, now rejoice,
And banish all your sadness,
While with united heart and voice
We sing with love and gladness,
And tell how God beheld our need,
And wrought that sweet and wondrous deed
That hath so dearly cost Him.
2 Fast bound in Satan's chains I lay,
Death brooded darkly o'er me,
My sins oppressed me night and day,
Therein my mother bore me,
And always deeper still I fell,
In all my life was nothing well,
So sore had sin possessed me.
3 My good works could avail me naught,
For they with sin were stained,
My will against God's judgments fought,
And dead to good remained:
My anguish drove me to despair,
Whilst death frowned on me everywhere,
And hell yawned just before me.
4 But God from all eternity
Looked on me in compassion;
His tender mercy flowed tow'rd me,
He willed my souls salvation;
His father's heart yearned over me:
What greater love than this could be,
Which gave His richest treasure?
5 He spake to His beloved Son:
"'Tis time to have compassion;
Go Thou, my Son, my heart's bright Crown,
And bring to man salvation:
From sin and sorrow set him free,
Slay bitter death for him, that he
May live with Thee forever."
6 The Son delighted to obey,
And, born of virgin mother,
Awhile in this low world did stay,
And thus became my brother;
His mighty power He hidden bore,
A servant's form like mine He wore,
My foe for me to vanquish.
7 To me He spake: "Hold fast by me,
I am thy Rock and Castle,
Myself I wholly give for thee,
For thee I strive and wrestle:
For I am thine, and thou art mine,
Henceforth my place is also thine,
The foe shall never part us.
8 "I know that he will shed my blood,
And of my life bereave me,
But I will bear it for thy good;
Be steadfast and believe me:
My life from death the victory wins,
My innocence doth bear thy sins,
And thus thou art delivered.
9 "And when to heaven I ascend,
My glory to inherit,
I still will be thy Lord, and send
To thee my Holy Spirit,
To comfort thee in every woe,
Instruct thee how me right to know,
And into truth to guide thee.
10 "As I have done and taught, so thou
To do and teach endeavor;
Then shall my kingdom flourish now,
And God be praised forever;
And this last counsel give I thee:
From men's additions keep thou free
The treasure I have left thee." Languages: English
Dear Christian people, now rejoice
Now I have found the ground wherein
Author: J. A. Rothe Hymnal: Hymn Book #69 (1884) Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Now I have found the ground wherein
Sure my soul’s anchor may remain;
The wounds of Jesus, for my sin
Before the world’s foundation slain;
Whose mercy shall unshaken stay,
When heaven and earth are fled away.
2 Father, Thine everlasting grace
Our feeble thought surpasses far;
Thy heart still melts with tenderness,
Thine arms of love still open are,
Returning sinners to receive,
That mercy they may taste, and live.
3 O Love, thou bottomless abyss!
My sins are swallowed up in Thee:
Covered is my unrighteousness,
Nor spot of guilt remains on me;
While Jesus’ blood, through earth and skies,
Mercy--free, boundless mercy--cries.
4 With faith I plunge me in this sea,
Here is my hope, my joy, my rest;
Hither, when hell assails, I flee,
I look into my Saviour’s breast:
Away, sad doubt and anxious fear!
Mercy is all that’s written there.
5 Though waves and storms go o’er my head,
Though strength, and health, and friends be gone;
Though joys be withered all and dead,
Though every comfort be withdrawn:
On this my steadfast soul relies,
Father, Thy mercy never dies.
6 Fixed on this ground will I remain,
Though my heart fail, and flesh decay;
This anchor shall my soul sustain,
When earth’s foundations melt away,
Mercy’s full power I then shall prove,
Loved with an everlasting love. Languages: English
Now I have found the ground wherein
Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness
Author: Zinzendorf Hymnal: Hymn Book #70 (1884) Topics: Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness
My beauty are, my glorious dress:
’Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,
With joy shall I lift up my head.
2 When from the dust of death I rise,
To take my mansion in the skies,
Even then shall this be all my plea:
"Jesus hath lived and died for me."
3 Bold shall I stand in Thy great day,
For who aught to my charge shall lay?
Fully through Thee absolved I am
From sin and fear, from guilt and shame.
4 This spotless robe the same appears,
When ruined nature sinks in years:
No age can change its constant hue
The robe of Christ is ever new.
5 And when the dead shall hear Thy voice,
Thy banished children shall rejoice;
Their beauty this, their glorious dress,--
Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness.
