Launch Out

Author: A. B. Simpson Hymnal: Tabernacle Hymns #125 Topics: Activity First Line: The mercy of God is an ocean divine Refrain First Line: Launch out into the deep Lyrics: 1 The mercy of God is an ocean divine, A boundless and fathomless flood; Launch out in the deep, cut away the shore line, And be lost in the fullness of God. Chorus: Launch out, into the deep, Oh, let the shoreline go; Launch out, launch out in the ocean divine, Out where the full tides flow. 2 But many, alas! only stand on the shore And gaze on the ocean so wide; They never have ventured its depths to explore, Or to launch on the fathomless tide. [Chorus] 3 And others just venture away from the land, And linger so near to the shore That the surf and the slime that beat over the strand Dash o'er them in floods evermore. [Chorus] 4 Oh, let us launch out on this ocean so broad, Where floods of salvation e’er flow; Oh, let us be lost in the mercy of God, Till the depths of His fullness we know. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [The mercy of God is an ocean divine]

O Sacred Head, now wounded

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #130 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 O Sacred Head, now wounded, With grief and shame weigh'd down! Now scornfully surrounded With thorns, Thine only crown. O sacred Head, what glory, What bliss, till now, was Thine! Yet, though despised and gory, I joy to call Thee mine. 2 How art Thou pale with anguish, With sore abuse and scorn! How does that visage languish Which once was bright as morn! Thy grief and Thy compassion Were all for sinners' gain; Mine, mine was the transgression, But Thine the deadly pain. 3 What language shall I borrow To thank Thee, dearest Friend, For this Thy dying sorrow, Thy pity without end! Lord, make me Thine for ever, Nor let me faithless prove; Oh, let me never, never Abuse such dying love! 4 Forbid that I should leave Thee; O Jesus, leave not me; By faith I would receive Thee; Thy blood can make me free; When strength and comfort languish, And I must hence depart, Release me then from anguish, By Thine own wounded heart.

Behold th' amazing sight

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #131 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 Behold th'amazing sight, The Saviour lifted high! Behold the Son of God's delight Expire in agony? 2 For whom, for whom, my heart, Were all these sorrows borne! Why did He feel that piercing smart, And meet that various scorn? 3 For love of us He bled, And all in torture died; 'Twas love that bow'd His fainting head, And oped His gushing side. 4 In sympathy of love Let all the earth combine; And, drawn by cords so gentle, prove The energy divine. 5 In Him our hearts unite, Nor share His griefs alone, But from His cross pursue their flight To His triumphant throne.

"Stricken, smitten, and afflicted"

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #132 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 "Stricken, smitten, and afflicted," See Him dying on the tree! 'Tis the Christ by man rejected; Yes, my soul, 'tis He, 'tis He! 'Tis the long-expected Prophet, David's Son, yet David's Lord; Proofs I see sufficient of it: 'Tis the true and faithful word. 2 Tell me, ye who hear Him groaning, Was there ever grief like His? Friends through fear His cause disowning, Foes insulting His distress: Many hands were raised to wound Him, None would interpose to save; But the deepest stroke that pierced Him Was the stroke that Justice gave. 3 Ye who think of sin but lightly, Nor suppose the evil great; Here may view its nature rightly, Here its guilt may estimate. Mark the sacrifice appointed! See Who bears the awful load; 'Tis the Word, the Lord's Anointed, Son of Man, and Son of God. 4 Here we have a firm foundation; Here's the refuge of the lost; Christ's the Rock of our salvation: His the name of which we boast: Lamb of God for sinners wounded! Sacrifice to cancel guilt! None shall ever be confounded Who on Him their hope have built. Languages: English

In the cross of Christ I glory

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #133 (1870) Topics: Christian Activity Lyrics: 1 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime. 2 When the woes of life o'ertake me, Hopes deceive, and fears annoy, Never shall the cross forsake me: Lo! it glows with peace and joy. 3 When the sun of bliss is beaming Light and love upon my way, From the cross the radiance streaming, Adds new luster to the day. 4 Bane and blessing, pain and pleasure, By the cross are sanctified; Peace is there that knows no measure, Joys that through all time abide. 5 In the cross of Christ I glory, Tow'ring o'er the wrecks of time; All the light of sacred story Gathers round its head sublime.

The Lost Sheep

Upon the lonely mountain, They shiver with the cold; Within the tangled thickets, Where poison-vines do creep, And over rocky ledges, Wander the poor lost sheep. Refrain: O come, let us go and find them; In the paths of death they roam; At the close of the day 'twill be sweet to say, "I have brought some lost one home." 2 O who will go to find them? Who, for the Saviour's sake, Will search with tireless patience, Thro’ brier and thro’ brake? Unheeding thirst or hunger, Who still from day to day, Will seek, as for a treasure, The sheep that go astray? [Refrain] 3 How sweet 'twound be at evening, If you and I could say, Good Shepherd we've been seeking The sheep that went astray! Heart-sore and faint with hunger, We heard them making moan, And, lo! we come at nightfall, And bear them safely home. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [How many sheep are straying]
