Christ bids us knock and enter in
Author: C. Wesley Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #836 (1873) Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Christ bids us knock and enter in;
Come unto him, and rest from sin,
The blessing seek and find;
He bids us ask his grace, and have;
Thou canst, thou wouldst, this moment save
Both me and all mankind.
2 Shut up in unbelief, I groan,
And blindly serve a God unknown,
Till thou the veil remove;
The gift unspeakable impart,
And write thy Name upon my heart,
And manifest thy love.
Christ bids us knock and enter in
Come, said Jesus' sacred voice
Author: Mrs. Barbauld Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #837 (1873) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come, said Jesus' sacred voice,
Come, and make my paths your choice;
I will guide you to your home;
Weary pilgrim, hither come.
2 Thou who, homeless and forlorn,
Long hast borne the proud world's scorn;
Long hast roamed the barren waste,
Weary wanderer, hither haste.
3 Hither come, for here is found
Balm that flows for every wound!
Peace, that ever shall endure,
Rest eternal, sacred, sure.
Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30
Come, said Jesus' sacred voice
Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin, Come the way to Zion's gate
Author: Crabbe Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #838 (1873) 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
With tearful eyes I look around
Author: White Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #839 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 With tearful eyes I look around;
Life seems a dark and stormy sea;
Yet midst the gloom I hear a sound,
A heavenly whisper, Come to me!
2 It tells me of a place of rest;
It tells me where my soul may flee:
Oh, to the weary, faith, oppressed,
How sweet the bidding, Come to me!
3 Come, for all else must fail and die;
Earth is no resting-place for thee;
To heaven direct thy weeping eye;
I am thy portion: Come to me!
4 O voice of mercy, voice of love!
In conflict, grief, and agony,
Support me, cheer me from above,
And gently whisper, Come to me! Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30
With tearful eyes I look around
Come to the ark, come to the ark
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #840 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Come to the ark, come to the ark;
To Jesus come away:
The pestilence walks forth by night,
The arrows fly by day.
2 Come to the ark: the waters rise,
The seas their billows rear;
While darkness gathers o'er the skies,
Behold a refuge near!
3 Come to the ark, all, all that weep
Beneath the sense of sin:
Without, deep calleth unto deep,
But all is peace within.
4 Come to the ark, ere yet the flood
Your lingering steps oppose;
Come, for the door which open stood
Is now about to close.
Come to the ark, come to the ark
Deep are the wounds which sin has made
Author: Steele Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #841 (1873) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Deep are the wounds which sin has made:
Where shall the sinner find a cure?
In vain, alas! is nature's aid;
The work exceeds all nature's power.
2 There is a great Physician near:
Look up, O fainting soul! and live:
See, in his heavenly smiles appear
Such ease as nature can not give.
3 See, in the Saviour's dying blood
Life, health, and bliss abundant flow;
'Tis only this dear, sacred flood
Can ease thy pain and heal thy woe. Scripture: Jeremiah 8:22
Deep are the wounds which sin has made
Now the Savior standeth pleading
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #842 (1873) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Now the Saviour standeth pleading
At the sinner's bolted heart;
Now in heaven he's interceding,
Taking there the sinner's part.
2 Sinners, hear your God and Saviour,
Hear his gracious voice to-day;
Turn from all your vain behavior,
Oh, repent, return, and pray!
3 Now he's waiting to be gracious,
Now he stands and looks on thee:
See what kindness, love, and pity,
Shine around on you and me.
4 Come, for all things now are ready,
Yet there's room for many more:
O ye blind, ye lame and needy,
Come to wisdom's boundless store!
Now the Savior standeth pleading
Make room for Jesus! room, sad heart
Author: Alex. Clark Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #843 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Make room for Jesus! room, sad heart,
Beguiled and sick of sin;
Bid every alien guest depart,
And rise and let him in.
2 Make room for Jesus! room, make room!
His hand is at the door;
He comes to banish guilt and gloom,
And bless thee more and more.
3 Make room for Jesus! soul of mine,
He waits response to-day;
His smile is peace; his grace, divine,--
O turn him not away!
4 Make room for Jesus! by and by,
'Midst saint and seraphim,
He'll welcome to his throne on high
The soul that welcomed him.
Make room for Jesus! room, sad heart
Whom have we, Lord, in heav'n, but thee
Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #844 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Invitations and Promises Lyrics: 1 Whom have we, Lord, in heav'n, but thee,
And whom on earth beside?
Where else for succor can we flee,
Or in whose strength confide?
2 Thou art our portion here below,
Our promised bliss above;
Ne'er may our souls an object know
So precious as thy love.
3 When heart and flesh, O Lord, shall fail,
Thou wilt our spirits cheer;
Support us through life's thorny vale,
And calm each anxious fear. Scripture: Psalm 11:1
Whom have we, Lord, in heav'n, but thee
Come to Calvary's holy mountain
Author: Montgomery Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #846 (1873) 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
