Yea, as I live, Jehovah saith

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #49 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Yea, as I live, Jehovah saith, I do not wish the sinner's death, But that he turn from error's ways, Repent, and live through endless days. 2 Hence Christ His servants gave command: Go forth and preach in every land; Pardon to every soul extend That mourns, believes, and will amend. 3 Whose sins soever ye remit, I truly pardon and acquit; Whose sins soever ye retain, Condemned and guilty shall remain. 4 What ye shall bind, that bound shall be; What ye shall loose, that shall be free; For unto you the keys are given To ope or close the gates of heaven. 5 They who believe, when ye proclaim The joyful tidings, in my name, That I for them my blood have shed, Are free from guilt and judgment dread. 6 Let those who stings of conscience bear, Whom sin would drive to dark despair, To Jesus come with trustful mind, And peace in Absolution find.

O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #50 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Thou that hear'st when sinners cry, Though all my crimes before Thee lie, Behold them not with angry look, But blot their memory from Thy book. 2 Create my nature pure within, And form my soul averse to sin; Let Thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Nor hide Thy presence from my heart. 3 I cannot live without Thy light, Cast out and banish from Thy sight; Thy holy joys, my God, restore, And guard me that I fall no more. 4 Though I have grieved Thy Spirit, Lord, His help and comfort still afford; And let me now come near Thy throne, To plead the merits of Thy Son. 5 A broken heart, my God, my King! Is all the sacrifice I bring: But Thou, O Lord, will ne'er despise A broken heart for sacrifice. 6 My soul lies humbled in the dust, And owns Thy dreadful sentence just: Look down, O Lord, with pitying eye, And save the soul condemned to die. 7 Then will I teach the world Thy ways; Sinners shall learn Thy sov'reign grace; I'll lead them to my Saviour's blood, And they shall praise a pard'ning God. 8 O may Thy love inspire my tongue; Salvation shall be all my song, And all my powers shall join to bless The Lord, my strength and righteousness.

Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #51 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Sun of my soul, Thou Saviour dear, It is not night if Thou be near; Oh, may no earth-born cloud arise To hide Thee from Thy servant's eyes. 2 When the soft dews of kindly sleep My wearied eyelids gently steep, Be my last thought, how sweet to rest Forever on my Saviour's breast. 3 Abide with me from morn till eve, For without Thee I cannot live, Abide with me when night is nigh, For without Thee I dare not die. 4 If some poor wandering child of Thine Has spurned to-day the voice divine, Now, Lord, the gracious work begin; Let him no more lie down to sin.

Awake, my soul, and with the sun

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #52 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake, my soul, and with the sun Thy daily stage of duty run; Shake off dull sloth, and early rise To pay thy morning sacrifice. 2 Wake, and lift up thyself, my heart, And with the angels bear thy part, Who all night long, unwearied, sing High praise to the eternal King. 3 All praise to Thee, who safe hast kept, And hast refreshed me whilst I slept; Grant, Lord, when I from death shall wake, I may of endless life partake. 4 Lord, I my vows to Thee renew; Disperse my sins as morning dew; Guard my first springs of thought and will, And with Thyself my spirit fill. 5 Direct, control, suggest, this day, All I design, or do, or say; That all my powers, with all their might, In Thy sole glory may unite.

Jesus, the thought of Thee, how sweet!

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #53a (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the thought of Thee, how sweet! In Thy dear name all heart-joys meet: But oh, than all else far more dear, The thought that Thou art ever near! 2 No name is heard more sweet than this, No word is sung more full of bliss, No thought brings sweeter comfort nigh, Than Jesus, Son of God most high. 3 Jesus, the hope of souls forlorn, How good to them for sin that mourn! To them that seek Thee, oh, how kind! But what art Thou to them that find! 4 No tongue of mortal can express, No letters write the blessedness; He only who hath proved it knows What bliss from love of Jesus flows. 5 O Jesus, King of wondrous might! O Victor, glorious from the fight! Sweetness that may not be expressed, And altogether loveliest! 6 Abide with us, O Lord, to-day, And fill us with Thy grace, we pray; And with Thine own true sweetness feed Our souls, from sin and darkness freed.

Jesus! Thou Joy of loving hearts!

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #53b (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou Joy of loving hearts! Thou Fount of life! Thou Light of men! From the best bliss that earth imparts We turn unfilled to Thee again. 2 Thy truth unchanged hath ever stood; Thou savest those that on Thee call; To them that seek Thee, Thou art good, To them that find Thee, all in all. 3 We taste Thee, O Thou living Bread! And long to feast upon Thee still; We drink of Thee, the Fountain Head, And thirst our souls from Thee to fill. 4 Our restless spirits yearn for Thee, Where'er our changeful lot is cast; Glad, when Thy gracious smile we see, Blest, when our faith can hold Thee fast. 5 O Jesus! ever with us stay; Make all our moments calm and bright; Chase the dark night of sin away; Shed o'er the world Thy holy light.

Lord Jesus Christ! To Thee we pray

Hymnal: CHCS1898 #55 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ! To Thee we pray, From us God's wrath Thou turn'st away, Thine agony and bitter death Redeem us from eternal wrath. 2 That we may never this forget, Thy body for our food is set; And with the wine Thou giv'st Thy blood To cleanse our souls, a sacred flood. 3 Let none, impenitent and bold, This sacred feast profanely hold: He who unworthy sitteth there Shall sink to death and dark despair. 4 But praise the Father, by whose love The Son descended from above, Became the bread of life to thee, And bore thy sins upon the tree. 5 Our Saviour saith: Come unto me, Ye who now feel your poverty: My mercy I will freely give, Your burdened conscience I'll relieve. 6 Could'st thou unaided this obtain, Then had I shed my blood in vain; This feast were vainly spread for thee, If thou require no food from me. 7 If in thy heart this faith doth rest, Which thou hast here in words confessed, A welcome guest thou here shalt be, And Christ Himself shall banquet thee. 8 But fruits must e'er thy faith approve; Thy neighbor thou must truly love; That love let him from thee receive, Which here to thee thy God doth give.

Securely shall my ashes lie, And wait the summons from on high. Languages: English Tune Title: JESUS MY LIFE
