Earth to earth and dust to dust

Author: Anon. Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Earth to earth and dust to dust, Lord, we own the sentence just; Head and tongue, and hand and heart, All in guilt have borne their part; Righteous is the common doom, All must moulder in the tomb. 2 Like the seed in spring-time sown, Like the leaves in autumn strown, Low these goodly frames shall lie, All our pomp and glory die; Soon the spoiler seeks his prey, Soon he bears us all away. 3 Yet the seed, upraised, again Clothes with green the smiling plain; Onward as the seasons move, Leaves and blossoms deck the grove; And shall we forgotten lie, Lost forever when we die? 4 Lord, from nature's gloomy night Turn we to the gospel's light; Thou didst triumph o'er the grave, Thou wilt all thy people save; Ransomed by thy blood they rise, Mounting victors to the skies.

Lamb Of God, Who Bear'st Away

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 8 hymnals First Line: Lamb of God, who bear’st away Lyrics: 1 Lamb of God, who bear’st away All the sins of all mankind, Bow a nation to Thy sway While we may acceptance find; Let us thankfully embrace The last offers of Thy grace. 2 Thou Thy messengers hast sent Joyful tidings to proclaim, Willing we should all repent, Know salvation in Thy name, Feel our sins by grace forgiven, Find in Thee the way to Heav’n. 3 Jesu, roll away the stone, Good Physician, show Thine art; Make Thine healing virtue known, Break the unbelieving heart, Soften the obdurate crowd, Melt the rebels by Thy blood. 4 Let Thy dying love constrain Those that disregard Thy frown; Sink the mountain to a plain, Bring the pride of sinners down; By Thy bloody cross subdue, Tell them, "I have died for you!" 5 Or if yet they will not turn In their acceptable day, Will not look on Thee and mourn, Will not cast their sins away, Them at last by judgments shake, By Thy thunder’s voice awake. 6 Force our hardened souls to fear, Visit with affliction’s rod, Let us have our chastening here, Fall into the hands of God ; Scourge, but make not a full end, Punish us, but, Lord, amend. 7 Let th’effect of Jacob’s pain Be to purge his sin away, Let the stock take root again, Flourish in a Gospel day, Forth in gracious blossoms shoot, Fill the Earth with golden fruit. 8 If the ruin be decreed, Turn it to Thy people’s good, Still preserve the holy seed, Arm us with Thy sprinkled blood, Till the utmost grace we prove, Perfect in all-patient love.

Gracious God, My Heart Renew

Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Gracious God, my heart renew, make my spirit right and true; in your presence let me stay, by your Spirit show the way; your salvation's joy impart, steadfast make my willing heart. 2 So shall sinners be restored and return to you, their Lord; Savior, all my guilt remove, and my tongue shall sing your love; touch my silent lips, O Lord, and my mouth shall praise accord. 3 Not the formal sacrifice has acceptance in your eyes; broken hearts are in your sight more than sacrificial rite; contrite spirit, pleading cries, you, O God, will not despise. 4 Prosper Zion in thy grace and her broken walls replace: then our righteous sacrifice shall delight your holy eyes; freewill offerings, gladly made, on your altar shall be laid.

Weary sinner, keep thine eyes

Author: Augustus Montague Toplady Appears in 45 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Weary sinner, keep thine eyes On the atoning Sacrifice: There the Incarnate Deity Numbered with transgressors see: There His Father's absence mourns, Nailed, and bruised, and crowned with thorns. 2 Surely Christ thy griefs hath borne; Weeping soul, no longer mourn: View Him bleeding on the tree, Pouring out His life for thee: There thy every sin He bore; Weeping soul, lament no more. 3 Cast thy guilty soul on Him, Find Him mighty to redeem: At his feet thy burden lay, Look thy doubts and cares away: Now, by faith, the Son embrace, Plead His promise, trust His grace. 4 Lord, Thy arm must be revealed, Ere I can by faith be healed: Since I scarce can look to Thee, Cast a gracious eye on me: At Thy feet myself I lay: Shine, O shine my fears away!
