The poor sinner

Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CCLXXVII (1790) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.8.7.6 First Line: God of my salvation, hear Lyrics: 1 God of my salvation hear, And help me to believe; Simply do I now draw near, Thy blessing to receive; Full of guilt, alas! I am, But to thy wounds for refuge flee; Friend of sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy blood was shed for me. 2 Nothing have I, LORD, to pay, Nor can thy grace procure; Empty send me not away, For I, thou know'st, am poor, Dust and ashes is my name, My all is sin, and misery: Friend of sinners, spotless Lamb, Thy blood was shed for me. 3 Without money, without price, I come thy love to buy; From myself I turn my eyes, The chief of sinners, I: Take, O take me, as I am, And let me lose myself in thee; Friend of sinners, spotless lamb, Thy blood was shed for me.

The backslider's prayer

Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CCLXXIX (1790) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.8.7.6 First Line: Jesus, let thy pitying eye Lyrics: 1 Jesus, let thy pitying eye Call back a wand'ring sheep; False to thee, like Peter, I Would fain like Peter, weep; Let me be by grace restor'd, On me be all its freeness shewn; Turn and look upon me, LORD, And break my heart of stone. 2 Saviour prince, enthron'd above, Repentance to impart, Give me thro' thy dying love, The humble contrite heart; Give, what I have long implor'd, A portion of thy grief unknown; Turn and look upon me, LORD, And break my heart of stone. 3 See me, Saviour, from above, Nor suffer me to die; Life, and happiness, and love, Drop from thy gracious eye; Speak the reconciling word And let thy mercy melt me down; Turn and look upon me, LORD, And break my heart of stone. 4 Look as when thy pitying eye, Was clos'd that we might live; Father (at the point to die, My Saviour gasp'd) "Forgive!" Surely with that dying word, He turns, and looks, and cries, "'tis done!" O my loving, bleeding LORD< Thou breaks my heart of stone. Topics: Backslider's Prayer Languages: English

Lamb Of God For Sinners Slain

Hymnal: Songs of Zion #6 (1821) Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.8.7.6 Lyrics: 1. Lamb of God for sinners slain,To thee I humbly pray,Heal me of my grief and pain,O take my sins away.From this bondage, Lord, release,No longer let me be oppressed:Jesus, Master, seal my peace,And take me to thy rest.2. Wilt thou cast a sinner outWho humbly comes to thee?No, my God, I cannot doubt,Thy mercy is for me:Let me then obtain the grace,And be of paradise possessed:Jesus, Master, seal my peace,And take me to thy breast.3. Worldly good I do not want,Be that to others given,Only for thy love I pant,My all in earth or heaven;This the crown I fain would seize,The good wherewith I would be blest:Jesus, Master, seal my peace,And take me to thy breast.4. This delight I fain would prove,And then resign my breath,Join the happy few, whose loveWas mightier than death.Let it not my Lord displease,That I would die to be thy guest;Jesus, Master, seal my peace,And take me to thy breast.
