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.

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.

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.

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

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
