I Heard the Voice of Jesus say

Author: Horatius Bonar Hymnal: Concordia #132 (1918) Topics: Call and Repentance Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say, “Come unto Me and rest; Lay down, thou weary one,lay down Thy head upon My breast." I came to Jesus as I was, Weary and worn and sad, I found in Him a resting place, And He has made me glad. 2 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "Behold, I freely give The living water: thirsty one, Stoop down, and drink, and live." I came to Jesus, and I drank Of that life-giving stream; My thirst was quenched, my soul revived, And now I live in Him. 3 I heard the voice of Jesus say, "I am this dark world's Light; Look unto Me, thy morn shall rise, And all thy day be bright." I looked to Jesus, and I found In Him, my Star, my Sun; And in that light of life I'll walk Till trav'ling days are done. Languages: English Tune Title: VOX DILECTI

Blest Is He Who Cries To Heaven

Author: P. C. Paulsen Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #172 (1927) Topics: Call and Repentance Lyrics: 1 Blest is he who cries to heaven In the dark and evil day, Whose transgressions are forgiven And whose sins are wash'd away; Blest, when God to him imputeth Not iniquity nor sin, When no hidden guile polluteth Spirit, heart, and soul within. 2 Long I kept in silence groaning, While my bones wax'd weak and old; Long my heart with grief was moaning And to Thee, O God was cold. Day and night Thy hand oppress'd me, Moisture turn'd to summer-drought, My transgressions sore distress'd me, While in vain I comfort sought. 3 When from Thee no longer hiding I confess'd my sin to Thee, And, to Thee my grief confiding, Thou in love forgavest me. Now my heart is fill'd with gladness, Thou surroundest me with grace; Songs of joy dispel my sadness, For Thou art my hiding-place. 4 Lord, instruct and teach me ever In the way that I shall go; With Thy counsel me deliver From the cunning of the foe. For Thy grace and mercy tender, For Thy Table and Thy Word, Thanks to heaven I will render And forever praise Thee, Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: [Blest is he who cries to heaven]

There Is A Sea Of Mercy

Author: C. K. Solberg Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #173 (1927) Topics: Call and Repentance Lyrics: 1 There is a sea of mercy, Wide as eternity; It gives the vile and guilty Salvation full and free; It is the blood of Jesus, Come, sinner, do not weep, From sin and guilt it cleanses, "Launch out into the deep!" 2 There is a sea of promise, Its waters, deep and wide, Most safely on its bosom You reach the other side. It is the word of Scripture With pow'r to save and keep, So full of sweet assurance, "Launch out into the deep!" 3 There is a sea of service That you must daily brave: In spite of raging tempest, Sail out the lost to save! O Christian, do not linger, Shake off the sense of sleep, Away, away to rescue, "Launch out into the deep!" 4 Tho' doubts shall make you falter, And foes shall make you fear, Tho' disappointments gather And sure defeat seems near. Tho' storms are daily raging With fierce and awful sweep, If Jesus is your pilot, "Launch out into the deep!" Languages: English Tune Title: [There is a sea of mercy]

Come while yet the chance is given, Humbly bow to Him the knee. Turn from sin thy face away, With the world no longer stray; Greater things are thee awaiting Than the world's despair and hating. 2 Hast thou spent thy days in chasing Phantoms of delight and glee? Hast thou fondly been embracing Sin with all its agony? Oh then turn to Calvary, Let the cross thy solace be, With a heart contrite and lowly Give thyself to Jesus wholly. 3 He alone can safely guide thee On the way to yonder shore, Thou art safe with Him beside thee, Having help for thee in store, But without Him thou shalt fail, All thy wisdom, like a tale, In the final test shall perish; Jesus only thou must cherish. 4 Come ye Christians brave the weather, Courage take from God above, Like a phalanx stand together, Being one in faith and love. Keep ye Jesus ever near And His holy name revere. Help and strengthen one another Ev'ry selfish tho't to smother. 5 It is time we should be starting, Death is swiftly drawing nigh; Time, that we should be departing For a place with Christ on high. Take His cross and start today All who dare not risk delay; Come while yet the chance is given, Who will join the throng to heaven?

The Abyss Of Many A Former Sin

Author: Joseph of the Studium Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home #178 (1927) Topics: Call and Repentance First Line: Th'abyss of many a former sin Lyrics: 1 Th'abyss of many a former sin Encloses me, and bars me in; Like billows my transgressions roll Be Thou the pilot of my soul; And to salvation’s harbor bring, Thou Savior and Thou glorious King! 2 My Father’s heritage abused, Wasted by lust, by sin misused; To shame and want and mis'ry brought, The slave to many a fruitless tho't; I cry to Thee, who lovest men, O pity and receive again! 3 In hunger now, no more possess'd Of that my portion bright and blest, The exile and the alien see, Who yet would fain return to Thee! Accept me, Lord, I seek Thy grace; And let me see a Father's face! 4 With that blest thief my pray'r I make, Remember for Thy mercy’s sake! With that poor publican I cry, Be merciful, O God, most high! With that lost prodigal I fain, Back to my home would turn again! 5 Mourn, mourn, my soul, with earnest care, And raise to Christ the contrite pray'r; Oh, Thou who freely wast made poor, My sorrows and my sins to cure, Me, poor of all good works, embrace, Enriching with Thy boundless grace!
