Come, My Soul, Thy Suit Prepare

Author: John Newton Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #74 (1930) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare, Jesus loves to answer prayer; He Himself has bid thee pray; Rise and ask without delay. 2 With my burden I begin: Lord, remove this load of sin! Let Thy blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 3 Lord, I come to Thee for rest; Take possession of my breast; There Thy sov'reign right maintain And without a rival reign. 4 Show me what I have to do, Ev'ry hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me die Thy people's death.

A Broken Heart, My God, My King

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #75 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 A broken heart, my God, my King, Is all the sacrifice I bring; The God of grace will ne'er despise A broken heart for sacrifice. 2 My soul lies humbled in the dust And owns Thy dreadful sentence just; Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye And save the soul condemned to die. 3 Then will I teach the world Thy ways; Sinner shall learn Thy sov'reign grace; I'll lead them to my Savior's blood, And they shall praise a pard'ning God. 4 O may Thy love inspire my tongue; Salvation shall be all my song, And all my pow'r shall join to bless The Lord, my Strength and Righteousness.

God Calling Yet

Author: Sarah Borthwick Findlater; Gerhard Tersteegen, d. 1769 Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #76 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence First Line: God calling yet! - shall I not hear? Lyrics: 1 God calling yet! -- shall I not hear? Earth's pleasures shall I still hold dear? Shall life's swift passing years all fly, And still my soul in slumber lie? 2 God calling yet! -- shall I not rise? Can I His loving voice despise, And basely His kind care repay? He calls me still; can I delay? 3 God calling yet! -- and shall He knock, And I my heart the closer lock? He still is waiting to receive, And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? 4 God calling yet! - and shall I give No heed, but still in bondage live? I wait, but He does not forsake; He calls me still; -- my heart, awake! 5 Ah, yield Him all; in Him confide; Where but with Him doth peace abide? Break loose, let earthly bonds be riv'n, And let the spirit rise to heav'n! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG

O Jesus, Thou Art Standing

Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #77 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Thou art standing Outside the fast-closed door, In lowly patience waiting To pass the threshold o'er: Shame on us, Christian brethren, His Name and sign who bear, O shame, thrice shame upon us To keep Him standing there! 2 O Jesus, Thou art knocking; And lo! that hand is scarred, And thorns Thy brow encircle, And tears Thy face have marred. O love that passeth knowledge, So patiently to wait! O sin that hath no equal, So fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading In accents meek and low, I died for you, My children, And will ye treat Me so? O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door; Dear Savior, enter, enter, And leave us nevermore! Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. EDITH

Out of our failure to create

Author: Fred Kaan (b . 1929) Hymnal: New Church Praise #77 (1975) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Confession and Penitence Lyrics: 1 Out of our failure to create a world of love and care; out of the depths of human life we cry to God in prayer. 2 Out of the darkness of our time, of days for ever gone, our souls are longing for the light, like watchmen for the dawn. 3 Out of the depths we cry to him whose will is strong and just; all human hole-and-corner ways are by his light exposed. 4 Hope in the Lord whose timeless Jove gives laughter where we wept; the father, who at every point his word has given and kept.
