Author: Thomas Binney, 1798-1874 Meter: 8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 89 hymnals Topics: The Fall The Human Condition Lyrics: 1 Eternal Light! Eternal Light! How pure the soul must be, when, placed within Your searching sight, it shrinks not, but with calm delight can face such majesty. 2 The spirits who surround Your throne may bear that burning bliss; but that is surely theirs alone, since they have never, never known a fallen world like this. 3 O how shall I, whose dwelling here is dark, whose mind is dim, before the face of God appear and on my human spirit bear The uncreated beam? 4 There is a way for us to rise to that sublime abode: an offering and a sacrifice, a Holy Spirit’s energies, an advocate with God. 5 Such grace prepares us for the sight of holiness above; those once in ignorance and night can dwell in the eternal Light, through the eternal Love.

Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: The Fall Lyrics: 1 Gracious God, my heart renew, make my spirit right and true; in your presence let me stay, by your Spirit show the way; your salvation's joy impart, steadfast make my willing heart. 2 So shall sinners be restored and return to you, their Lord; Savior, all my guilt remove, and my tongue shall sing your love; touch my silent lips, O Lord, and my mouth shall praise accord. 3 Not the formal sacrifice has acceptance in your eyes; broken hearts are in your sight more than sacrificial rite; contrite spirit, pleading cries, you, O God, will not despise. 4 Prosper Zion in thy grace and her broken walls replace: then our righteous sacrifice shall delight your holy eyes; freewill offerings, gladly made, on your altar shall be laid.

The Effects of the Fall lamented

Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 117 hymnals Topics: The Fall; Fall of man Lamented First Line: Arise, my tenderest thoughts, arise Lyrics: 1 Arise, my tenderest thoughts, arise, To torrents melt my streaming eyes; And thou, my heart, with anguish feel Those evils which thou canst not heal. 2 See human nature sunk in shame; See scandals pour'd on Jesus' name: The Father wounded through the son; The world abus'd; the soul undone. 3 See the short course of vain delight Closing in everlasting night;— In flames that no abatement know, Tho' briny tears for ever flow. 4 My God, I feel the mournful scene; My bowels yearn o'er dying men; And fain my pity would reclaim, And snatch the firebrands from the flame. 5 But feeble my compassion proves, And can but weep, where most it loves; Thy own all-saving arm employ, And turn these drops of grief to joy. Scripture: Psalm 119:136
