In mercy, not in wrath
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #354 (1867) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 In mercy, not in wrath,
Rebuke me, gracious God!
Lest, if Thy whole displeasure rise
I sink beneath Thy rod.
2 Touched by Thy quickening power,
My load of guilt I feel;
The wounds Thy Spirit hath unclosed
Oh let that Spirit heal.
3 In trouble and in gloom,
Must I for ever mourn?
And wilt Thou not at length, O God,
In pitying love return?
4 Oh come, ere life expire,
Send down Thy power to save;
For who shall sing Thy Name in death,
Or praise Thee in the grave?
5 Why should I doubt Thy grace,
Or yield to dread despair?
Thou wilt fulfill Thy promised word,
And grant me all my prayer. Scripture: Psalm 6 Languages: English
In mercy, not in wrath
Protecting Grace
Hymnal: The Psalter #355 (1912) Topics: Backsliding First Line: All who with heart confiding Lyrics: 1 All who, with heart confiding,
Depend on God alone,
Like Zion's mount abiding,
Shall ne'er be overthrown.
Like Zion's city, bounded
By guarding mountains broad,
His people are surrounded
Forever by their God.
2 No scepter of oppression
Shall hold unbroken sway,
Lest unto base transgression
The righteous turn away.
Thy favor be imparted
To godly men, O Lord;
Bless all that are pure-hearted,
The good with good reward.
3 The men who falsehood cherish,
Forsaking truth and right,
With wicked ones shall perish;
God will their sin requite.
From sin your saints defending,
Their joy, O Lord, increase,
With mercy never-ending
And everlasting peace. Scripture: Psalm 125 Languages: English Tune Title: MIRIAM

Oh for a glance of heavenly day
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #355 (1867) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Oh for a glance of heavenly day,
To take this stubborn heart away,
And thaw with beams of love divine
This heart, this frozen heart of mine!
2 The rocks can rend; the earth can quake;
The seas can roar; the mountains shake;
Of feeling all things show some sign:
But this unfeeling heart of mine.
3 To hear the sorrows thou hast felt,
O Lord, an adamant might melt;
But I can read each moving line,
And nothing moves this heart of mine.
4 Thy judgments too, which devils fear,
(Amazing thought!) unmoved I hear;
Goodness and wrath in vain combine,
To stir this stupid heart of mine.
5 Eternal Spirit! mighty God!
Apply to me the Saviour's blood;
'Tis His rich blood, and His alone,
Can move and melt this heart of stone. Languages: English
Oh for a glance of heavenly day

How oft, alas! this wretched heart
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #356 (1867) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 How oft, alas! this wretched heart
Has wandered from the Lord!
How oft my roving thoughts depart,
Forgetful of His word!
2 Yet sovereign mercy calls, "Return;"
Dear Lord, and may I come?
My vile ingratitude I mourn;
Oh take the wanderer home.
3 And canst Thou, wilt Thou yet forgive,
And bid my crimes remove?
And shall a pardoned rebel live
To speak Thy wondrous love?
4 Almighty grace, Thy healing power,
How glorious, how divine,
That can to life and bliss restore
So vile a heart as mine!
5 Thy pardoning love, so free, so sweet,
Dear Saviour, I adore:
Oh keep me at Thy sacred feet,
And let me rove no more. Languages: English
How oft, alas! this wretched heart
Sweet was the time when first I felt
Hymnal: The Book of Worship #357 (1867) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Man a Saint Lukewarm and Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Sweet was the time when first I felt
The Saviour's pardoning blood,
Applied to cleanse my soul from guilt,
And bring me home to God.
2 Soon as the morn the light revealed,
His praises tuned my tongue;
And when the evening shades prevailed,
His love was all my song.
3 In prayer my soul drew near the Lord,
And saw His glory shine;
And when I read His holy word,
I called each promise mine.
4 Now, when the evening shade prevails,
My soul in darkness mourns;
And when the morn the light reveals,
No light to me returns.
5 Now Satan threatens to prevail,
And make my soul his prey;
Yet Lord, Thy mercies cannot fail;
Oh come without delay! Languages: English
Sweet was the time when first I felt
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!
