Whiter than the Snow

Ref: Whiter than snow, Whiter than snow, Whiter than snow, Whiter than snow. 2 Far whiter than snow, and as fair as the day, For Christ is the fountain to wash guilt away; Oh, give him, poor sinner, that burden of thine, And enter the fold with the ninety and nine. [Refrain] 3 Yon sheep that was lost in the valley of sin, Was found by the Shepherd, who gathered him in; With songs of thanksgiving the hills did resound, My friends and my neighbors, the lost sheep is found. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [Fear not, little flock, says the Savior divine]

Isaiah 1:10-19: Rulers of Sodom! hear the voice

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 1:10-19 First Line: Rulers of Sodom! hear the voice Lyrics: Rulers of Sodom! hear the voice of heav’n’s eternal Lord; Men of Gomorrah! bend your ear submissive to his word. ’Tis thus he speaks; To what intent are your oblations vain? Why load my altars with your gifts, polluted and profane? Burnt-off’rings long may blaze to heav’n, and incense cloud the skies; The worship and the worshipper are hateful in my eyes. Your rites, your fasts, your pray’rs, I scorn, and pomp of solemn days: I know your hearts are full of guile, and Crooked are your ways. But cleanse your hands, ye guilty race, and cease from deeds of sin; Learn in your actions to be just, and pure in heart within. Mock not my name with honours vain, but keep my holy laws; Do justice to the friendless poor, and plead the widow’s cause. Then though your guilty souls are stained with sins of crimson dye, Yet, through my grace with snow itself in whiteness they shall vie.

It soothes his sorrows, heals his wounds, and drives away his fear. 2 It makes the wounded spirit whole, and calms the troubled breast; 'tis manna to the hungry soul, and to the weary rest. 3 Dear name! the rock on which I build, my shield and hiding-place, my never-failing treasury filled with boundless stores of grace. 4 Jesus! my Shepherd, Brother, Friend, my Prophet, Priest, and King, my Lord, my Life, my Way, my End, accept the praise I bring. 5 Weak is the effort of my heart, and cold my warmest thought; but when I see thee as thou art, I'll praise thee as I ought. 6 Till then I would thy love proclaim with every fleeting breath; and may the music of thy name refresh my soul in death.

Author: C. Wesley Appears in 538 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 1:18 Lyrics: 1 Sinners, turn, why will ye die? God, your Maker, asks you--Why?

God, your Saviour, asks you--Why? He, who did your souls retrieve, Died himself, that ye might live. Will ye let him die in vain? Crucify your Lord again? Why, ye ransomed sinners, why Will ye slight his grace, and die? 3 Sinners, turn, why will ye die? God, the Spirit, asks you--Why? He, who all your lives hath strove, Urged you to embrace his love: Will ye not his grace receive? Will ye still refuse to live? Oh, ye dying sinners! why, Why will ye for ever die?
