"All things are ready," come!
Author: Albert Midlane Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #404 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Warning and Invitation Lyrics: 1 "All things are ready," come!
Come to the supper spread;
Come, rich and poor, come, old and young;
Come, and be richly fed.
2 "All things are ready," come!
The invitation's given
Through Him who now in glory sits
At God's right hand in heaven.
3 "All things are ready," come!
The door is open wide;
O feast upon the love of God;
For Christ, his Son, has died.
4 "All things are ready," come!
To-morrow may not be;
O sinner, come! the Saviour waits
This hour to welcome thee. Tune Title: GOLDEN HILL
"All things are ready," come!
Jesus, Saviour of our race
Author: W. H. Littlejohn Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #464 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Saviour of our race,
Trusting in thy blood and grace,
I, a sinner, wounded, sore,
Prostrate fall, and help implore;
On my back's a burden high,
Sins of years that multiply;
In my heart a sense of wrong
Shades with sadness e'en my song.
2 Long I've wandered round and round,
Sought relief, but none have found;
Now at last I come to thee,
Save me, Lord; O, set me free!
Yes, I hear the potent word;
Yes, my earnest prayer is heard;
Once in bondage, now I'm free;
Saved, dear Lord, and saved by thee!
3 From my back the burden rolled,
Burden high of sins untold;
From my heart all sense of shame
Passed away when Jesus came.
O what love in Christ I found!
Love so high, so broad, profound;
Love that I can never tell;
Love that saved my soul from hell.
4 How shall I the debt repay,
Debt that swells from day to day?
How can I in words reveal
That which in my heart I feel?
Ah! my soul, it ne'er can be;
Love divine's too high for thee;
What I owe to Christ to-day
Words or deeds can ne'er repay.
5 Bankrupt 'neath the cross I stand:
Thus I sing, O, sea! O, land
"In my hand no price I bring,
Simply to thy cross I cling."
Such a song my Lord approves,
Sung by one the Spirit moves;
Love is all he asks from me,
That he has, most full, most free. Tune Title: MARTYN
Jesus, Saviour of our race
Jesus, merciful and mild
Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #465 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Repentance and Acceptance Lyrics: 1 Jesus, merciful and mild,
Lead me as a helpless child:
On no other arm but thine
Would my weary soul recline;
Thou art ready to forgive,
Thou canst bid the sinner live,
Guide the wanderer, day by day,
In the strait and narrow way.
2 Thou canst fit me by thy grace
For the heavenly dwelling-place;
All thy promises are sure,
Ever shall thy love endure;
Then what more could I desire,
How to greater bliss aspire?
All I need, in thee I see;
Thou art all in all to me.
3 Jesus, Saviour all divine,
Hast thou made me truly thine?
Hast thou bought me by thy blood?
Reconciled my heart to God?
Hearken to my tender prayer,
Let me thine own image bear;
Let me love thee more and more,
Till I reach heaven's blissful shore. Tune Title: MARTYN
Jesus, merciful and mild
Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.XVII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Sinner's Portion and Saint's Hope Lyrics: 1 Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove
My faith, my patience, and my love:
When men of spite against me join,
They are the sword the hand is thine.
2 Their hope and portion lies below:
’Tis all the happiness they know,
’Tis all they seek; they take their shares,
And leave the rest among their heirs.
3 What sinners value, I resign;
Lord, ’tis enough that thou art mine:
I shall behold thy blissful face,
And stand complete in righteousness.
4 This life’s a dream, an empty show;
But the bright world to which I go,
Hath joys substantial and sincere;
When shall I wake and find me there?
5 O glorious hour! O blest abode!
I shall be near and like my God;
And flesh and sin no more control
The sacred pleasures of the soul.
6 My flesh shall slumber in the ground,
Till the last trumpet’s joyful sound;
Then burst the chains in sweet surprise,
And in my Saviour’s image rise. Scripture: Psalm 17 Languages: English
Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove
Will the pardoning God despise
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #294 (1828) Meter: Irregular Topics: or, the Sinner's Plea Lyrics: 1 Will the pardoning God despise
A poor mourner's sacrifice
One who brings his all to thee,
All his sin and misery;
2 Saviour, see my troubled breast,
Heaving, panting after rest,
Jesus, mark my hollow eye,
Never clos'd and never dry.
3 Listen to my plaintive moans,
Deep uninterrupted groans,
Keep not silence at my tears,
Quiet all my griefs and fears.
4 Good physician, show thine art,
Bind thou up my broken heart;
Aches it not for thee, my God,
Pants to feel the healing blood?
5 Jesus, answer all thy name,
Save me from my fear and shame
Sunk in desperate misery,
Sinner's friend, remember me!
Will the pardoning God despise
O God, to whom in flesh reveal'd
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #308 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Salvation through Jesus Christ The sinner trusting in Christ for salvation Lyrics: 1 O God, to whom in flesh reveal'd
The helpless all for succour came;
The sick to be reliev'd and heal'd,
And found salvation in thy name.
2 With publicans and harlots I,
In these thy Spirit's gospel days,
To thee, the sinner's friend, draw nigh,
And humbly sue for saving grace.
3 Thou seest me helpless and distressed,
Feeble, and faint, and blind, and poor;
Weary I come to thee for rest,
And sick of sin implore a cure.
4 My sin's incurable disease,
Thou, Jesus, thou alone canst heal;
Inspire me with thy power and peace,
And pardon on my conscience seal.
5 A touch, a word, a look from thee,
Can turn my heart and make it clean;
Purge the foul inbred leprosy,
And save me from my bosom-sin.
6 Lord, if thou wilt, I do believe,
Thou canst the saving grace impart;
Thou canst this instant now forgive,
And stamp thine image on my heart.
7 My heart, which now to thee I raise,
I know thou canst this moment cleanse;
The deepest stains of sin efface,
And drive the evil spirit hence.
8 Be it according to thy word!
Accomplish now thy work in me;
And let my soul, to health restor'd,
Devote its little all to thee!
O God, to whom in flesh reveal'd
What mean these jealousies and fears?
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #309 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Salvation through Jesus Christ The sinner trusting in Christ for salvation; The sinner trusting in God Lyrics: 1 What mean these jealousies and fears?
As if the Lord was loath to save,
Or lov'd to see us drench'd in tears,
Or sink with sorrow to the grave.
2 Does he want slaves to grace his throne?
Or rules he by an iron rod?
Loves he the deep despairing groan?
Is he a tyrant, or a God?
3 Not all the sins which we have wrought,
So much his tender bowels grieve,
As this unkind injurious thought,
That he's unwilling to forgive.
4 What though our crimes are black as night,
Or glowing like the crimson morn,
Immanuel's blood will make them white
As now through the pure ether borne.
5 Lord, 'tis amazing grace we own,
And well may rebel worms surprise;
But, was not thy incarnate Son
A most amazing sacrifice?
6 "I've found a ransom," saith the Lord,
"No humble penitent shall die?"
Lord, we would now believe thy word,
And thy unbounded mercies try!
What mean these jealousies and fears?
Deep are the wounds which sin has made
Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #363 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life 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 her utmost power.
2 But can no sovereign balm be found,
And is no kind physician nigh,
To ease the pain, and heal the wound,
Ere life and hope forever fly?
3 There is a great Physician near;
Look up, O fainting soul, and live;
See, in his heavenly smiles appear
Such help as nature cannot give. Tune Title: WINDHAM
Deep are the wounds which sin has made
Infinite love! what precious stores
Author: Jared Waterbury Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #367 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Infinite Love! what precious stores
Thy mercy has prepared for us!
The costliest gems, the richest ores,
Could never have endowed us thus.
2 But thy soft hand, O gracious Lord,
Can draw from suffering souls the sting;
And thy rich bounty to our board
Can bread for hungering sinners bring.
3 How rich the grace! the gift how free!
'Tis only "ask," it shall be given;
"Tis only "knock," and thou shalt see
The opening door that leads to heaven.
4 O then arise, and take the good,
So full and freely proffered thee,
Remembering that it cost the blood
Of Him who died on Calvary.
Tune Title: MISSIONARY CHANT
Infinite love! what precious stores
Behold a Stranger at the door!
Author: Joseph Grigg Hymnal: The Seventh-Day Adventist Hymn and Tune Book #393 (1886) Topics: The Sinner Warning and Invitation Lyrics: 1 Behold a Stranger at the door!
He gently knocks, has knocked before,
Has waited long, is waiting still;
You treat no other friend so ill.
2 O, lovely attitude! he stands
With melting heart and laden hands;
O, matchless kindness! and he shows
This matchless kindness to his foes.
3 But will he prove a friend indeed?
He will, the very friend you need
The Friend of sinners; yes, 'tis he,
With garments dyed on Calvary.
4 Rise, touched with gratitude divine,
Turn out his enemy and thine
That soul-destroying monster, sin
And let the heavenly Stranger in.
5 Admit him ere his anger burn;
His feet, departed, ne'er return:
Admit him, or the hour's at hand
When at his door denied you'll stand. Tune Title: BERA
Behold a Stranger at the door!
