The Abyss Of Many A Former Sin

Author: Joseph of the Studium Hymnal: Hymnal for Church and Home (2nd ed.) #178 (1928) 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 thought:-- I cry to Thee, who lovest men, O pity and receive again! 3 In hunger now, no more possessed 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 prayer 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 prayer;-- 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!

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? Confide in thy God, let Him win thee! Still hope in thy God, Him extol!

Chorus: Whiter than the snow, Whiter than the snow, Wash me in the blood of the Lamb, And I shall be whiter than snow. 2 Thorny was the crown that he wore, And the cross his body o'er came; Grievous were the sorrows he bore, But he suffered thus not in vain. May I to the Fountain be led, Made to cleanse my sins here below; Wash me in the blood that he shed, And I shall be whiter than snow. [Chorus] 3 Father, I have wandered from thee, Often has my heart gone astray: Crimson do my sins seem to me, Water cannot wash them away. Jesus, to that Fountain of thine, Leaning on thy promise I go; Cleanse me by thy washing divine, And I shall be whiter than snow.
