Sin bewailed

Appears in 707 hymnals Scripture: 1 Kings 3:5 First Line: Come, my soul, thy suit prepare Lyrics: 1 Come, my soul, thy suit prepare, Jesus loves to answer pray'r; He himself has bid thee pray, Rise and ask without delay. 2 With my burden I begin, Lord, remove this load of sin! Let thy blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 3 Lord! I come to thee for rest, Take possession of my breast; There thy blood-bought right maintain, And without a rival reign. 4 As the image in the glass Answers the beholder's face; Thus unto my heart appear, Print thine own resemblance there. 5 While I am a pilgrim here, Let Thy love my spirit cheer; As my guide, my guard, my Friend, Lead me to my journey's end. 6 Shew me what I have to do, Ev'ry hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me live the people's death.

All hail, in time appointed, your reign on earth begun! You come to break oppression, to set the captive free, to take away transgression and rule in equity. 2 You come with rescue speedy to those who suffer wrong, to help the poor and needy and bid the weak be strong; to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, are precious in your sight. 3 You shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth; love, joy, and hope, like flowers, spring in your path to birth. Before you on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go, and righteousness in fountains from hill to valley flow. 4 All rulers bow before you, and gold and incense bring. All nations shall adore you; your praise all people sing. To you shall prayer unceasing and daily vows ascend. Your rule is still increasing; your rule is without end.
