Author: Charlotte Elliott Appears in 113 hymnals Topics: God Pity; God Pity First Line: O Thou, the contrite sinner's Friend Lyrics: 1 O Thou, the contrite sinner's Friend, Who loving, lov'st them to the end, On this alone my hopes depend, That thou wilt plead for me. 2 When weary in the Christian race, Far off appears my resting place, And, fainting, I mistrust thy grace, Then, Saviour, plead for me. 3 When I have erred and gone astray, Afar from thine and wisdom's way, And see no glimmering, guiding ray, Still, Saviour, plead for me. 4 When Satan, by my sins made bold, Strives from thy cross to loose my hold, Then with thy pitying arms enfold, And plead, oh, plead for me! 5 And when my dying hour draws near, Darkened with anguish, guilt and fear, Then to my fainting sight appear, Pleading in heaven for me.

The Blessed Life

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Pity For Others First Line: How blest the man who fears the Lord Lyrics: 1 How blest the man who fears the Lord And greatly loves God's holy will; His children share his great reward, And blessings all their days shall fill. 2 Abounding wealth shall bless his home, His righteousness shall still endure; To him shall light arise in gloom, For he is merciful and pure. 3 The man whose hand the weak befriends In judgment shall his cause maintain; A peace unmoved his life attends, And long his mem'ry shall remain. 4 Of evil tidings not afraid, His trust is in the Lord alone; His heart is steadfast, undismayed, For he shall see his foes o'erthrown. 5 With kind remembrance of the poor, For their distress his gifts provide; His righteousness shall thus endure, His name in honor shall abide. 6 To shame the wicked shall be brought, While righteous men shall favor gain; Unrighteous hopes shall come to naught, Its due reward shall sin obtain.
