Jesus of Nazareth Passeth By

Author: Emma Campbell Appears in 196 hymnals Topics: Invitation and Repentance; Invitation and Repentance First Line: What means this eager, anxious throng Lyrics: 1 What means this eager, anxious throng Which moves with busy haste along, These wondrous gath'rings day by day? What means this strange commotion, pray? In accents hush'd the throng reply; "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." In accents hush'd the throng reply: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 2 Who is this Jesus? Why should he The city move, so mightily? A passing stranger, has he skill To move the multitude at will? Again the stirring notes reply: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." Again the stiring notes reply: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 3 Jesus! 'tis he who once below Man's pathway trod, 'mid pain and woe; And burdened ones where e'er he came, Brought out their sick, and deaf and lame. The blind rejoiced to hear the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." The blind rejoiced to hear the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by?" 4 Today, he comes, from place to place His holy footprints we can trace; He pauseth at our threshold, nay, He enters, condescends to stay: Shall we not gladly raise the cry: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by?" Shall we not gladly raise the cry "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by?" 5 Ho! all ye heavy laden, come! Here's pardon, comfort, rest, and home; Ye wand'rers from the Father's face, Return, accept his proffered grace. Ye tempted ones, there's refuge nigh: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." Ye tempted ones, there's refuge nigh: "Jesus of Nazareth passeth by." 6 But if you still this call refuse, And all his wondrous love abuse, At last he'll sadly from you turn, Who now his invitation spurn. "Too late! too late!" will be the cry "Jesus of Nazareth has passed by." "Too late! too late!" will be the cry "Jesus of Nazareth has passed by."

Ashamed of Jesus

Author: Joseph Grigg Appears in 1,298 hymnals Topics: Invitation and Repentance; Invitation and Repentance First Line: Jesus, and shall it ever be Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of thee? Ashamed of thee, whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days? 2 Ashamed of Jesus! sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O'er this benighted soul of mine. 3 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon; 'Twas midnight with my soul till he, Bright Morning Star, bade darkness flee. 4 Ashamed of Jesus! that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heav'n depend! No; when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere his name. 5 Ashamed of Jesus! yes, I may When I've no guilt to wash away; No tear to wipe, no good to crave, No fears to quell, no soul to save. 6 Till then, nor is my boasting vain, Till then I boast a Saivour slain; And O, may this my glory be, That Christ is not ashamed of me!

The Gospel Trump Is Sounding

Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Invitation and Repentance; Invitation and Repentance Lyrics: 1 The gospel trump is sounding The year of jubilee, And grace is all abounding, To set the bondmen free. Forsake your wretched service, Your Master's claims are o'er; Avail yourselves of freedom, Be Satan's slaves no more. 2 A better Master's calling, In accents true and kind; He asks a loving service, And claims a willing mind. He offers you salvation, And points to joys above; And, longing, waits to make you The objects of his love. 3 In living faith accept him, Give up all else beside; While grace is loudly calling, Look to the Crucified. Return, return, ye captives, Return unto your home, The gospel trump is sounding, The jubilee is come. Used With Tune: OSCAR

Forgive My Doubts

Author: W. Gladden Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Invitation and Repentance; Invitation and Repentance Returning to God First Line: Forgive, O Lord, the doubts that break Lyrics: 1 Forgive, O Lord, the doubts that break Thy promises to me; Forgive me that I fail to take My pardon, full and free. I sought to put my sins away, I strove to do Thy will, And yet, whene'er I tried to pray, My heart was doubting still. 2 I tho't that Thou with jealous eyes Wast watching me alway, My deeds to mark, my steps to spy, Whene'er I went astray; I hoped that when, by days and years Of service and of prayer, I had besought Thy grace with tears, Thy mercy I might share. 3 Forgive, O Father, this my sin, This jealous, doubting heart; For when men seek Thy love to win, And choose the better part, I know that, swifter than the light Leaps earthward from the sun, Thy pard'ning love, Thy rescuing might, Speed down to ev'ry one.
