Jesus, lover of my soul

Author: Charles Wesley (1707-1788) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3,394 hymnals Topics: Life in Christ Our Response to Christ - In Penitence Lyrics: 1 Jesus, lover of my soul, let me to thy bosom fly, while the nearer waters roll, while the tempest still is high. Hide me, O my Saviour, hide, till the storm of life is past; safe into the haven guide, oh, receive my soul at last! 2 Other refuge have I none, hangs my helpless soul on thee; leave, ah! leave me not alone, still support and comfort me. All my trust on thee is stayed, all my help from thee I bring; cover my defenceless head with the shadow of thy wing. 3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want; more than all in thee I find; raise the fallen, cheer the faint, heal the sick, and lead the blind. Just and holy is thy name, I am all unrighteousness; false and full of sin I am, thou art full of truth and grace. 4 Plenteous grace with thee is found, grace to cover all my sin; let the healing streams abound, make and keep me pure within. Thou of life the fountain art; freely let me take of thee; spring thou up within my heart, rise to all eternity. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:9 Used With Tune: HOLLINGSIDE

Approach, My Soul, the Mercy Seat

Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 626 hymnals Topics: Penitence Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat, Where Jesus answers prayer; There humbly fall before His feet, For none can perish there. 2 Thy promise is my only plea, With this I venture nigh; Thou callest burdened souls to Thee, And such, O Lord, am I. 3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin, By Satan sorely pressed, By war without and fears within, I come to Thee for rest. 4 Be Thou my shield and hiding place, That, sheltered near Thy side, I may my fierce accuser face, And tell him Thou hast died! 5 O wondrous love! to bleed and die, To bear the cross and shame, That guilty sinners, such as I, Might plead Thy gracious name. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 27:5 Used With Tune: BALLERMA

A Broken Heart, My God, My King

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 154 hymnals 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. Used With Tune: WITTENBERG
