The Love of Christ Immeasurable

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.7.4 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: High beyond imaginations Lyrics: 1 High beyond imagination Is the love of God to man; Far too deep for human reason; Fathom that it never can; Love eternal Richly dwells in Christ the Lamb. 2 Love like Jesus’ none can measure, Nor can its dimensions know; ’Tis a boundless, endless river, And its waters freely flow. O ye thirsty, Come and taste its streams below. 3 Jesus loved, and loves for ever; Zion on his heart does dwell; He will never, never, never Leave his church a prey to hell. All is settled, And my soul approves it well. Topics: Salvation and Free Grace

Panting for Christ

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.7.4 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Precious Jesus! Friend of sinners! Lyrics: 1 Precious Jesus! Friend of sinners; We, as such, to thee draw near; Let thy Spirit now dwell in us, And with love our souls inspire; Fill, O fill us With that love which casts out fear. 2 Matchless Saviour! let us view thee As the Lord our Righteousness; Cause each soul to cleave unto thee, Come, and with thy presence bless. Dear Immanuel, Feast us with thy sovereign grace. 3 Open now thy precious treasure: Let the blessings freely flow; Give to each a gracious measure Of thy glory here below; Loving Bridegroom, ’Tis thyself we want to know. 4 [Come, and claim us as thy portion, And let us lay claim to thee; Leave us not to empty notion, But from bondage set us free; King of glory! We would live and reign with thee.] Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Love

"I lay down my life for the sheep"

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.7.4 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O my soul, admire and wonder Lyrics: 1 O my soul, admire and wonder; Jesus lived and died for thee; He has broke the bands asunder, And from bondage set thee free. Sweet deliverance Jesus Christ has wrought for me. 2 [I a slave to sin and Satan Once did live, and liked it well; But the God of my salvation Died to save my soul from hell. Precious Saviour Let me ever with thee dwell.] 3 All the debts I had contracted, He, in mercy, called his own; And lest I should be neglected, Drew me near his gracious throne; Paid all charges, Then, and for the time to come. 4 Soon I hope to see his glory, And, with all the saints above, Sing and tell the pleasing story, In the highest strains of love; And for ever Live and reign with him above.

Sinners, call'd by grace, and blessed

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.7.4 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Sinners, called by grace, and blessèd With a living faith in Christ, Must not think to be caressèd By a world of sin and vice; Satan’s agents Cannot love the Saviour’s choice. 2 Let this thought the Christian strengthen; Jesus’ name is life and peace; Angels have not skill to mention Half his wisdom, power, or grace. Souls that trust him, Soon shall see him face to face. 3 Though they suffer for a season, For the name of Christ, their Lord; And at times may know no reason Why such sorrows are endured; Soon he’ll teach them, That the whole has worked for good. 4 [Happy is the savèd sinner, That endures for Jesus’ sake; He of endless life’s a winner; Of his glory shall partake; Jesus will not, Cannot, such a soul forsake.] 5 O for love, for faith, and patience! Jesus, fix our souls on thee! Nor let Satan’s dire vexations, Make us start aside or flee; May we ever Cling and twine, dear Lord, to thee.

Baptism

Author: W. Gadsby Meter: 8.7.4 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Jesus, our exalted Saviour Lyrics: 1 Jesus, our exalted Saviour, We adore thy matchless grace; Thou hast borne our misbehaviour, Suffered in our wretched place; Wrath and terror Sank thy soul in deep disgrace. 2 For us thou hast borne the horrors Of a sin-avenging God; Who can understand the sorrows Of thy soul in wrath’s deep flood? ’Tis a mystery Only fully known to God. 3 [Yet, through grace, we know in measure What thy love has for us borne, And we hope, through thy good pleasure, To behold thee on thy throne, And for ever Sing the victories thou hast won.] 4 As an emblem of thy passion, We with thee would be baptized; And to show thy great salvation, From the liquid grave we rise; May we never, Never dare thy ways despise. Topics: Baptism Scripture: Romans 6:4
