And those who put their trust in Thee,
Nor death nor hell shall harm.

That Truth to keep, that Life to win,
Whose joys eternal flow.

The Peace Of God Protects Our Hearts
Author: J. C. Aaberg; N. F. S. Grundtvig Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: The Means of Grace Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 The peace of God protects our hearts
Against the tempter’s fiery darts;
It is as sure when darkness falls
As when the golden morning calls.
2 This is the peace our Savior wrought
When on the cross the foe He fought;
And when to heav'n He upward soared
His peace He left us in His Word.
3 His word of peace new strength imparts
Each day to faint and troubled hearts,
And in the cup and at the font
It satisfies our deepest want.
4 This blessed peace our Lord will give
To all who in the Spirit live;
Yea, even at their parting breath
They peacefully await their death.
5 But know, ye people of the Lord,
That only this can help afford:
That hearts believe to righteousness
And tongues the word of peace confess.
6 For when the Lord our peace had won,
He asked for faith, and faith alone.
By faith, and not our merits vain,
We grace and peace from God obtain.
7 Peace be with thee, the Savior saith
In answer to our word of faith;
Whoso has faith, he shall have peace
And live in joy that ne'er shall cease.
Used With Tune: BARNEKOW
The Peace Of God Protects Our Hearts
If Your Beloved Son, O God
Author: Johann Heermann, 1585-1647 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Justification Lyrics: 1 If your beloved Son, O God,
had not to earth descended
and in our mortal flesh and blood
had not sin's power ended,
then this poor, wretched soul of mine
in hell eternally would pine
because of my transgression.
2 But now I find sweet peace and rest;
despair no more reigns o'er me.
No more am I by sin oppressed,
for Christ has borne sin for me.
Upon the cross for me he died
that, reconciled, I might abide
with you, my God, forever.
3 I trust in him with all my heart;
now all my sorrow ceases.
His words abiding peace impart;
his blood from guilt releases.
Free grace thro' him I now obtain;
he washes me from ev'ry stain,
and pure I stand before him.
4 All righteousness by works is vain;
the law brings condemnation.
True righteousness by faith I gain;
Christ's work is my salvation.
His death, that perfect sacrifice,
has paid the all-sufficient price;
in him my hope is anchored.
5 My guilt, O Father, you have laid
on Christ, your Son, my Savior.
Lord Jesus, you my debt have paid
and gained for me God's favor.
O Holy Spirit, fount of grace,
the good in me to you I trace;
in faith and hope preserve me. Scripture: Romans 8:3-4 Used With Tune: NUN FREUT EUCH Text Sources: St. 5: Neu-vermehrtes...Gesangbuch, Braunschweig, 1661; Tr.: The Lutheran Hymnal, 1941, alt.
If Your Beloved Son, O God
Blessed Be the Fountain of Blood
Author: E. R. Latta Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 130 hymnals Topics: Atonement-Justification Lyrics: 1 Blessed be the Fountain of blood,
To a world of sinners revealed:
Blessed be the dear Son of God;
Only by His stripes we are healed.
Tho' I've wandered far from His fold,
Bringing to my heart pain and woe,
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'ercame;
Grievous were the sorrows He bore,
But He suffered thus not in vain.
May I to that 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.
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. Used With Tune: WHITER THAN SNOW
Blessed Be the Fountain of Blood
How Helpless Guilty Nature Lies
Author: Anne Steele Appears in 233 hymnals Topics: The Christian Life Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 How helpless guilty nature lies,
Unconscious of its load!
The heart unchanged can never rise
To happiness and God.
2 Can aught beneath a power divine
The stubborn will subdue?
’Tis Thine, Almighty Savior, Thine
To form the heart anew.
3 ’Tis Thine the passions to recall,
And upwards bid them rise;
And make the scales of error fall
From reason’s darkened eyes.
4 To chase the shades of death away,
And bid the sinner live,
A beam of heaven, a vital ray
’Tis Thine alone to give.
5 O change these wretched hearts of ours,
And give them life divine!
Then shall our passions and our powers,
Almighty Lord, be Thine. Used With Tune: AZMON

Author: Genevieve Irons, b. 1855 Meter: 8.8.8.6 Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Justification Lyrics: 1 Drawn to the cross, which you have blessed
With healing gifts for souls distressed,
To find in you my life, my rest,
Christ Crucified, I come.
2 How well you know my griefs and fears,
Your grace abused, my misspent years!
Yet now to you with contrite tears,
Christ Crucified, I come.
3 Wash me and take away each stain;
Let nothing of my sin remain.
For cleansing, though it be through pain,
Christ Crucified, I come.
4 Then all that you would have me do
Shall such glad service be for you
That angels wish to do it too.
Christ Crucified, I come. Used With Tune: DUNSTAN
Drawn to the Cross, Which You Have Blessed
