"A clean heart"

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 1,176 hymnals Topics: Backsliding First Line: Oh, for a heart to praise my God Lyrics: 1 Oh, for a heart to praise my God, A heart from sin set free; A heart that always feels thy blood So freely shed for me! 2 A heart resigned, submissive, meek, My dear 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 filled with love divine; Perfect, and right, and pure, and good; An image, 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. Scripture: Psalm 51:17 Used With Tune: FARRANT

Come, and for ev'ry grief In Jesus you will find A sure and safe relief, A loving Friend and kind. Amen. Scripture: Matthew 11:28 Used With Tune: INVITATION

Psalm 25 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 114 hymnals Topics: Backsliding soul in distress and desertion; Distress of soul, or backsliding and desertion First Line: I Lift my soul to God Lyrics: I Lift my soul to God, My trust is in his name: Let not my foes that seek my blood Still triumph in my shame. Sin, and the powers of hell, Persuade me to despair: Lord, make me know thy cov'nant well, That I may 'scape the snare. From the first dawning light Till the dark ev'ning rise, For thy salvation, Lord, I wait With ever-longing eyes. Remember all thy grace, And lead me in thy truth; Forgive the sins of riper days, And follies of my youth. The Lord is just and kind, The meek shall learn his ways, And every humble sinner find The methods of his grace. For his own goodness' sake He saves my soul from shame: He pardons, though my guilt be great, Through my Redeemer's name. Scripture: Psalm 25:1-11
