Behold, By Grace, And Grace Alone

Unto the utmost ends of earth The Sun of Mercy sendeth forth His light to ev'ry nation. The way of life is open, free, O mortal man, to thee, to thee. 2 Thro' love alone His Son was sent To bear the law's dread punishment For all our dire transgression. Our sins He bore, our guilt He owned, For all our deeds His death atoned-- O bountiful possession! His righteousness is full and free, O sinful man, to thee, to thee. 3 For this o'erwhelming sacrifice The Lord will nevermore despise A contrite heart and spirit. By Jesus' death, by Jesus' blood, Full pleasing in the sight of God, His mercy we inherit. The fount of grace flows full and free, O pardoned soul, for thee, for thee. 4 By faith alone, for Jesus' sake, Each ransomed sinner may partake Of His abounding merit. If in His promise ye abide, By faith shall ye be justified And blessed with His free Spirit. His righteousness the just shall own By faith alone, by faith alone.

Have mercy of my soul, I pray, And wash Thou all my guilt away. 4 My soul Thy pardon strongly craveth; O speak the Word it fain would hear: I lend thee grace that truly saveth, I pardon thee, I stay thy fear. Have mercy on my soul, I pray, And wash Thou all my guilt away. 5 I do not doubt my prayer is granted, The sense of comfort doth increase; I have the grace for which I panted, And so to raise this cry I cease: Have mercy on my soul, I pray, And wash Thou all my guilt away.

My Heart, Prepare To Give Account

Author: P. C. Paulsen; H. A. Brorson Hymnal: American Lutheran Hymnal #69 (1930) Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Lyrics: 1 My heart, prepare to give account Of all thy sore transgression; To Him Who is all mercies' Fount Make thou a full confession. Recount what thou in all these years Of sin and guilt hast hoarded, And what in God's own book appears, With faithfulness recorded. 2 Soon will thy earthly course be run, No single day returning; But what thou good or ill hast done, Thy God is now discerning; When He to judgment calleth thee, Thou shalt with fear and trembling Thy sinful deeds in order see, No longer then dissembling. 3 Here thy conceit and ill desire Thou many times concealest; Thy evil lust, that burning fire, Thou nevermore revealest; Thou thinkest, This is hidden well, No soul shall ever know it. The day of judgment all shall tell, Its searching light will show it. 4 Remember, then, how swiftly went The years of grace He gave thee; What if today His call were sent, Without a chance to save thee! If thou hast still a few more days To be for death preparing, Then hasten to amend thy ways, By grace good fruitage bearing. 5 O bend thy knees, thy sins to take Before God's throne in heaven, And pray that grace for Jesus' sake To thee be freely given. Then by His power from above, By His own Holy Spirit, Thou shalt increase in faith and love, Till heaven thou inherit. Languages: English Tune Title: BERGGREN
