Suffered for sin

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 112 hymnals First Line: Oh, if my soul were formed for woe Lyrics: 1 Oh, if my soul were formed for woe, How would I vent my sighs! Repentance should like rivers flow From both my streaming eyes. 2 'Twas for my sins my dearest Lord Hung on the cursed tree, And groaned away a dying life For thee, my soul! for thee. 3 Oh, how I hate these lusts of mine That crucified my Lord; Those sins that pierced and nailed his flesh Fast to the fatal wood! 4 Yes, my Redeemer--they shall die; My heart has so decreed; Nor will I spare the guilty things That made my Saviour bleed. 5 While with a melting, broken heart, My murdered Lord I view, I'll raise revenge against my sins, And slay the murderers too.

There is a safe and secret place

Author: Henry F. Lyte Appears in 128 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a safe and secret place Beneath the wings divine, Reserved for all the heirs of grace; O, be that refuge mine! 2 The least and feeblest there may bide, Uninjured and unawed; While thousands fall on every side, He rests secure in God. 3 He feeds in pastures large and fair, Of love and truth divine; O child of God, O glory's heir! How rich a lot is thine! 4 A Hand almighty to defend, An Ear for every call, An honored life, a peaceful end, And heaven to crown it all.

Jesus, great Shepherd of the sheep

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 136 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, great Shepherd of the sheep, To thee for help we fly; Thy little flock in safety keep, For O, the wolf is nigh! 2 He comes, of hellish malice full, To scatter, tear, and slay; He seizes every straying soul As his own lawful prey. 3 Us into thy protection take, And gather with thine arm; Unless the fold we first forsake, The wolf can never harm. 4 We laugh to scorn his cruel power While by our Shepherd's side; The sheep he never can devour, Unless he first divide. 5 O do not suffer him to part The souls that here agree; But make us of one mind and heart, And keep us one in thee. 6 Together let us sweetly live, Together let us die; And each a starry crown receive, And reign above the sky.

In grief and fear, to thee, O Lord

Author: William Bullock Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1 In grief and fear, to thee, O Lord, We now for succor fly; Thine awful judgments are abroad, O shield us, lest we die. 2 The fell disease on every side Walks forth with tainted breath; And pestilence, with rapid stride, Bestrews the land with death. 3 O look with pity on the scene Of sadness and of dread; And let thine angel stand between The living and the dead. 4 With contrite hearts, to thee, our King, We turn who oft have strayed; Accept the sacrifice we bring, And let the plague be stayed. 5 We offer thee the incense sweet That from the heart doth rise: Good works, with true repentance meet, Shall be our sacrifice.
