Hearts of stone, relent, relent!

Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #823 (1873) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Warnings Lyrics: 1 Hearts of stone, relent, relent! Break, by Jesus' cross subdued; See his body, mangled, rent, Covered with a gore of blood; Sinful soul, what has thou done? Murdered God's eternal Son! 2 Yes, our sins have done the deed, Drove the nails that fixed him there; Crowned with thorns his sacred head, Pierced him with a soldier's spear; Made his soul a sacrifice; For a sinful world he dies. 3 Will you let him die in vain? Still to death pursue your Lord? Open tear his wounds again, Trample on his precious blood? No! with all my sins I'll part: Saviour, take my broken heart.

The swift-declining day

Author: Doddridge Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #828 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Warnings Lyrics: 1 The swift-declining day, How fast its moments fly! While evening's broad and gloomy shade Gains on the western sky. 2 Ye mortals! mark its pace, And use the hours of light; For know, its Maker can command At once eternal night. 3 Give glory to the Lord, Who rules the whirling sphere; Submissive at his footstool bow, And seek salvation there. 4 Then shall new luster break Through death's impending gloom, And lead you to unchanging light, In your celestial home.

Life is the time to serve the Lord

Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #829 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Warnings Lyrics: 1 Life is the time to serve the Lord, The time t' insure the great reward; And while the lamp holds out to burn, The vilest sinner may return. 2 Life is the hour that God has given To escape from hell and fly to heaven; The day of grace; and mortals may Secure the blessings of the day. 3 Then what my thoughts design to do, My hands, with all your might pursue; Since no device, nor work is found, Nor faith, nor hope, beneath the ground. 4 There are no acts of pardon past In the cold grave to which we haste; But darkness, death, and long despair Reign in eternal silence there. Scripture: Proverbs 1:24-32

Author: Jones Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #830 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come, trembling sinner, in whose breast A thousand thoughts revolve; Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed, And make this last resolve: 2 I'll go to Jesus, though my sins Like mountains round me close; I know his courts: I'll enter in, Whatever may oppose. 3 Prostrate I'll lie before his throne, And there my guilt confess; I'll tell him I'm a wretch undone, Without his sovereign grace. 4 Perhaps he will admit my plea, Perhaps will hear my prayer; But if I perish, I will pray, And perish only there. 5 I can not perish if I go: I am resolved to try; For if I stay away, I know I must for ever die. Scripture: 2 Kings 7:3-5
