O thou, who hast redeemed of old
Author: C. Wesley Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Glad Tidings Lyrics: 1 O thou, who hast redeemed of old,
And bidd'st me of thy strength lay hold,
And be at peace with thee,
Help me thy benefits to own,
And hear me tell what thou hast done,
O dying Lamb! for me.
2 Love, only love, thy heart inclined,
And brought thee, Saviour of mankind,
Down from thy throne above;
Love made my God a Man of grief,
Distressed thee sore for my relief:
Oh, mystery of love!
3 As thou hast loved and died for me
So grant me, Saviour, love to thee,
And gladly I resign
Whate'er I have, whate'er I am:
My life be all with thine the same,
And all thy death be mine. Scripture: Isaiah 27:5
O thou, who hast redeemed of old
Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin, Come the way to Zion's gate
Author: Crabbe Appears in 122 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin,
Come the way to Zion's gate;
There, till mercy speaks within,
Knock, and weep, and watch, and wait:
Knock--he knows the sinner's cry;
Weep--he loves the mourner's tears;
Watch, for saving grace is nigh;
Wait, till the heavenly grace appears.
2 Hark, it is the Saviour's voice!
Welcome, pilgrim, to thy rest!
Now within the gate rejoice,
Safe, and owned, and bought, and blest:
Safe from all the lures of vice;
Owned by joys the contrite know;
Bought by love, and life the price;
Blessed the mighty debt to owe.
3 Holy pilgrim! what for thee
In a world like this remains?
From thy guarded breast shall flee
Fear, and shame, and doubts, and pains:
Fear, the hope of heaven shall fly;
Shame, from glory's view retire;
Doubt, in full belief shall die;
Pain, in endless bliss expire.
Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin, Come the way to Zion's gate

From thy Father's happy home,
With thyself and God at war?
Turn thee, brother; homeward come.

Squandered life's most golden hours?
Turn thee, brother; God can save.

He thy faintest prayer can hear:
Seek him, for he may be found;
Call upon him; he is near. Scripture: Isaiah 44:22

Long hast borne the proud world's scorn;
Long hast roamed the barren waste,
Weary wanderer, hither haste.

Balm that flows for every wound!

Rest eternal, sacred, sure.

Come to Calvary's holy mountain
Author: Montgomery Appears in 204 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come to Calvary's holy mountain,
Sinner, ruined by the fall!
Here a pure and healing fountain
Flows to you, to me, to all--
In a full, perpetual tide,
Opened when our Saviour died.
2 Come, in sorrow and contrition,
Wounded, impotent, and blind!
Here the guilty, free remission,
Here the troubled, peace may find;
Health this fountain will restore,
He that drinks shall thirst no more.
3 He that drinks shall live for ever;
'Tis a soul-renewing flood:
God is faithful; God will never
Break his covenant in blood,
Signed when our Redeemer died,
Sealed when he was glorified. Scripture: Joel 3:18
Come to Calvary's holy mountain
Come, trembling sinner, in whose breast
Author: Jones Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 703 hymnals Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come, trembling sinner, in whose breast
A thousand thoughts revolve;
Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed,
And make this last resolve:
2 I'll go to Jesus, though my sins
Like mountains round me close;
I know his courts: I'll enter in,
Whatever may oppose.
3 Prostrate I'll lie before his throne,
And there my guilt confess;
I'll tell him I'm a wretch undone,
Without his sovereign grace.
4 Perhaps he will admit my plea,
Perhaps will hear my prayer;
But if I perish, I will pray,
And perish only there.
5 I can not perish if I go:
I am resolved to try;
For if I stay away, I know
I must for ever die. Scripture: 2 Kings 7:3-5

Come, and accept the promised rest;
The Saviour's gracious call obey,
And cast your gloomy fears away.
2 Here mercy's boundless ocean flows,
To cleanse your guilt and heal your woes;
Pardon, and life, and endless peace--
How rich the gift, how free the grace!
3 Dear Saviour, let thy powerful love
Confirm our faith, our fears remove;
Oh, sweetly reign in every breast,
And guide us to eternal rest. Scripture: Isaiah 43:1-2
Come, weary souls! with sins distressed
