Zion Hymnal #402 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Call to Salvation Lyrics: 1 The old congenial man of sin, Coeval with the fall we know, The entire depravity within, Whence all our endless evils flow; 2 Corrupt alas, through every part, No good, no help in us we have. But fly to Him with broken heart, Who died Himself our souls to save. 3 Nailed to the cross where Jesus bled, United with his sacrifice, (Not instantaneously struck dead) A lingering death our nature dies: 4 The death my Saviour bore for me, Exerts its mortifying power, Till nature gasping on the tree Is quite extinct, and stirs no more. 5 Whether by flow or swift degrees, The selfish and the proud desire, The Adam old shall surely cease, And the last breath of sin expire. 6 My actions, words, and thoughts impure, Sin's members, all destroyed shall be, And then of full salvation sure, I dwell in Christ, and Christ in me. AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: FEDERAL STREET

Extirpated the sinful seed, Th'original wound completely healed, The kingdom in your hearts restored, And every servant as his Lord! 5 Then would your guides their charge attend With joy, and not with grief and pain, Your meek and lowly love commend, And sharers of your triumph reign. See all their flock o'er Jordan past, And enter into rest– the last. Languages: English Tune Title: EVANSTON
