Oh for a heart to praise my God!
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #358 (1867) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 O for a heart to praise my God!--
A heart from sin set free,
A heart that's sprinkled with the blood
So freely shed for me,--
2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek--
My great Redeemer’s throne,
Where only Christ is heard to speak,
Where Jesus reigns alone.
3 Oh for a lowly, contrite heart,
Believing, true and clean;
Which neither life nor death can part
From Him that dwells within!
4 A heart in every thought renewed,
And full of love divine;
Perfect, and right, and pure, and good--
A copy, Lord, of Thine.
5 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart;
Come quickly from above;
Write Thy new name upon my heart,
Thy new, best name of Love. Languages: English
Oh for a heart to praise my God!
Stay, Thou insulted Spirit! stay
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #359 (1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Stay, Thou insulted Spirit! stay,
Though I have done Thee such despite;
Nor cast the sinner quite away,
Nor take Thine everlasting flight.
2 Though I have steeled my stubborn heart,
And oft shaken off my guilty fears;
And vexed and urged Thee to depart,
For many long rebellious years,--
3 Though I have most unfaithful been
Of all who e'er Thy grace received,
Ten thousand times Thy goodness seen,
Ten thousand times Thy goodness grieved.
4 Yet oh! the chief of sinners spare
In honor of my great High-Priest:
Nor in Thy righteous anger swear
T'exclude me from Thy people's rest.
5 This only woe I deprecate,
This only plague I pray remove,
Nor leave me in my lost estate,
Nor curse me with this want of love.
6 E'en now my weary soul release,
Upraise me with Thy gracious hand,
And guide into Thy perfect peace,
And bring me to the promised land.

O Thou, whose mercy hears
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #360 (1867) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 O Thou, whose mercy hears
Contrition's humble sigh;
Whose hand, indulgent, wipes the tears
From sorrow's weeping eye!--
2 See! at Thy throne of grace,
A wretched wanderer mourn;
Hast Thou not bid me seek Thy face?
Hast Thou not said, Return?
3 Absent from Thee, my light,
Without one cheering ray,
Through dangers fears, and gloomy night,
How desolate my way!
4 Oh Shine upon my heart,
With beams of mercy shine;
And let Thy healing voice impart
A taste of joys divine. Languages: English

Father, Again in Jesus' Name We Meet
Author: Lucy E.G. Whitmore Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #380 (1990) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Father, again in Jesus' name we meet,
and bow in penitence beneath your feet:
again to you our feeble voices raise,
to sue for mercy, and to sing your praise.
2 O we would bless you for your ceaseless care,
and all your works from day to day declare:
is not our life with hourly mercies crowned?
Does not your arm encircle us around?
3 Alas, unworthy of your boundless love,
too oft with careless feet from you we rove;
but now, encouraged by your voice, we come,
returning sinners to a Father's home.
4 O by that name in whom all fullness dwells,
O by that love which ev'ry love excels,
O by that blood so freely shed for sin,
open blest mercy's gate and take us in.

Father, Again in Jesus' Name We Meet
God of mercy! God of grace!
Author: John Taylor Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #385 (1899) Topics: Backsliding Lyrics: 1 God of mercy! God of grace!
Hear our penitential songs;
Oh, restore Thy suppliant race,
Thou to whom our praise belongs!
2 Deep regret for follies past,
Talents wasted, time misspent;
Hearts debased by worldly cares,
Thankless for the blessings lent;
3 Foolish fears and fond desires;
Vain regrets for things as vain;
Lips too seldom taught to praise,
Oft to murmur and complain;
4 These, and every secret fault,
Filled with grief and shame, we own;
Humbled at Thy feet we lie,
Seeking pardon from Thy throne.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ESHTEMOA
God of mercy! God of grace!
With tears of anguish I lament
Author: Samuel Stennett Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #386 (1899) Topics: Backsliding Lyrics: 1 With tears of anguish I lament,
Here at Thy feet, my God,
My passion, pride, and discontent,
And vile ingratitude.
2 Sure there was ne'er a heart so base,
So false as mine has been;
So faithless to its promises,
So prone to every sin!
3 How long, dear Saviour, shall I feel
These strugglings in my breast?
When wilt Thou bow my stubborn will,
And give my conscience rest?
4 Break, sovereign Grace, oh, break the charm,
And set the captive free;
Reveal, Almighty God, Thine arm,
And haste to rescue me.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: LYNDHURST
With tears of anguish I lament
Thou Lord of all above
Author: Benjamin Beddome Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #387 (1899) Topics: Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Thou Lord of all above,
And all below the sky,
Before Thy feet I prostrate fall,
And for Thy mercy cry.
2 Forgive my follies past,
The crimes which I have done;
Oh, bid a contrite sinner live,
Through thine incarnate Son.
3 Guilt, like a heavy load,
Upon my conscience lies;
To Thee I make my sorrows known,
And lift my weeping eyes.
4 The burden which I feel,
Thou only canst remove;
Display, O Lord, Thy pardoning grace,
And Thine unbounded love.
5 One gracious look of thine
Will ease my troubled breast;
Oh, let me know my sins forgiven,
And I shall then be blest.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: OLMUTZ
Thou Lord of all above
