In Loving-Kindness Jesus Came

Author: Charles H. Gabriel Meter: 8.8.8.6 with refrain Appears in 179 hymnals Scripture: Titus 3:4 Refrain First Line: From sinking sand He lifted me Lyrics: 1. In loving-kindness Jesus came My soul in mercy to reclaim, And from the depths of sin and shame Thro' grace He lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me! 2. He called me long before I heard, Before my sinful heart was stirred, But when I took Him at His word, Forgiv'n, He lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me. 3. His brow was pierced with many a thorn, His hands by cruel nails were torn, When from my guilt and grief forlorn, In love He lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me. 4. Now on a higher plane I dwell, And with my soul I know 'tis well; Yet how or why I cannot tell He should have lifted me. From sinking sand He lifted me, With tender hand He lifted me, From shades of night to plains of light, O praise His name, He lifted me. Used With Tune: HE LIFTED ME

By Grace I'm Saved

Author: Christian Ludwig Scheidt, 1709-61 Meter: 9.8.9.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Titus 3:4-7 First Line: By grace I'm saved, grace free and boundless Lyrics: 1 By grace I'm saved, grace free and boundless; My soul, believe and doubt it not. Why stagger at this word of promise? Has Scripture ever falsehood taught? No! Then this word must true remain; By grace you too will life obtain. 2 By grace! None dare lay claim to merit; Our works and conduct have no worth. God in His love sent our Redeemer, Christ Jesus, to this sinful earth; His death did for our sins atone, And we are saved by grace alone. 3 By grace God's Son, our only Savior, Came down to earth to bear our sin. Was it because of your own merit That Jesus died your soul to win? No, it was grace, and grace alone, That brought Him from His heav'nly throne. 4 By grace! This ground of faith is certain; So long as God is true, it stands. What saints have penned by inspiration, What in His Word our God commands, Our faith in what our God has done Depends on grace--grace through His Son. 5 By grace to timid hearts that tremble, In tribulation's furnace tried, By grace, in spite of fear and trouble, The Father's heart is open wide. Where could I help and strength secure If grace were not my anchor sure? 6 By grace! On this I'll rest when dying; In Jesus' promise I rejoice; For though I know my heart's condition, I also know my Savior's voice. My heart is glad, all grief has flown Since I am saved by grace alone. Used With Tune: O DASS ICH TAUSEND ZUNGEN HÄTTE (DRETZEL) Text Sources: The Lutheran Hymnal, 1941 (Tr.), alt.
