Nothing but leaves! The Spirit grieves

Author: L. E. A. Appears in 122 hymnals Topics: Bible Songs Invitation Lyrics: 1 Nothing but leaves! The Spirit grieves O'er years of wasted life; O'er sins indulged while conscience slept, O'er vows and promises unkept, And reaps from years of strife Nothing but leaves! Nothing but leaves! 2 Nothing but leaves! No gathered sheaves, Of life's fair ripening grain: We sow our seeds; lo! tares and weeds, Words, idle words, for earnest deeds, Then reap, with toil and pain, Nothing but leaves! Nothing but leaves! 3 Nothing but leaves! Sad memory weaves No vail to hide the past; And as we trace our weary way, And count each lost and misspent day, We sadly find at last Nothing but leaves! Nothing but leaves! 4 Ah, who shall thus the Master meet And bring but withered leaves? Ah, who shall at the Saviour's feet, Before the awful judgment seat Lay down for golden sheaves, Nothing but leaves! Nothing but leaves! Scripture: Mark 11:13 Used With Tune: NOTHING BUT LEAVES

Smith Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Invitation Songs First Line: Wand'ring afar from the Savior's side Refrain First Line: O wanderer, weary and lost Lyrics: 1 Wand’ring afar from the Savior’s side, Into a world of sin and shame; Turning away the Crucified— Spurning the love with which He came! Chorus: O, wanderer, weary and lost, Why will you turn Him away? Jesus who saves you at infinite cost— Will you not take Him today? 2 Turning away from the heav’nly light, Wandering on in paths of sin— Choosing to dwell in eternal night— Mocking the Spirit’s voice within! [Chorus] 3 Courting the wrath of a righteous God— Hastening to the judgment morn, Feeling no shame that the sinner’s rod Fell on the Savior’s head forlorn!

Come see the Pow'r of Christ our King

Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: liturgical Songs of Response; Invitation to Praise and Repentance Lyrics: 1 Come see the Pow'r of Christ our King When on the Cross the Saviour hung, His Grace a dying Thief did bring, To own him with his Heart and Tongue. 2 Our Malefactor scorn'd Christ's Name, The other did his Sin reprove; Then said by Faith to God's dear Lamb, "Remember me O Lord above." 3 What noble Faith in him appear'd, That he could trust a dying Lord! He soon the blessed Jesus heard pronounce this sweet reviving Word; 4 "Amen, this Day thy Soul shall be "With me in Paradise above." This made the dying Pris'ner free; These Words were full of boundless Love. 5 What Comfort did this Speech convey, To his poor guilty wretched Mind! When thus he heard the Saviour say, Great Peace the Criminal did find. 6 Thus Jesus Christ forgave the Thierf, And shew'd great Mercy to the Man; So in the midst of Woe and Grief, His Joy and Happiness began. 7 O how he sings the Saviour's Praise, Who took him at the very last, When he his youthful Strength and Days In Satan's Cause had spent and past! 8 Now he adores God's holy Name, And stands before the Saviours Face; And will eternally proclaim The boundless Riches of his Grace! Scripture: Luke 23:39-43

Disciples of Christ

Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: liturgical Songs of Response; Invitation to Praise and Repentance Lyrics: 1 Disciples of Christ Ye Friends of the Lamb; Attend, and assist In sing his Fame: Eternal Thanksgiving The Faithful should pay, The Living, the Living, As we do this Day. 2 A Body of Clay He humbly put on. And then took away The Sin we had done; And in it endured The Wrath to us due, The Curse we incurred, Our Stripes and our Woe. 3 Not only he dy'd, But also arose; Laid Weakness aside, And over his Foes, (Sin, Death, and the Devil,) He triumph'd, and o'er This World, and all Evil, Dominion and Pow'r. 4 O merciful Lamb, Who sits on the Throne, We bow at thy Name, The Saviour we own, Deserving our Blessing, And Blessing we'll give, Without ever ceasing, So long as we live.

Rise, my Soul, and stretch thy Wings

Appears in 807 hymnals Topics: liturgical Songs of Response; Invitation ot Praise and Repentance Lyrics: 1 Rise, my Soul, and stretch thy Wings, Thy better Portion Trace; Rise from Transitory Things, Tow'rds Heav'n, thy native Place; Sun, and Moon, and Stars decay, Time shall soon this Earth remove; Rise, my Soul, and haste away To Seats prepar'd above. 2 Rivers to the Ocean run, Nor stay in all their Course; Fire ascending seeks the Sun, Both speed them to their Source; To a Soul that's born of GOD, Pants to view his glorious Face; Upward tends to his Abode, To rest in his Embrace. 3 Fly the Riches, fly me Cares; While I that Coast explore; Flattering World, with all thy Snares, Solicit me no more. Pilgrims fix not here their Home; Strangers tarry but a Night, When the last dear Morn is come, They'll rise to joyful Light. 4 Cease, ye Pilgrims, cease to mourn, Press onward to the Prize; Soon our Saviour will return, Triumphant in the Skies: Yet a Season, and you know Happy Entrance will be giv'n, All our Sorrows left below, And Earth exchang'd for Heav'n.
