When wounded sore, the stricken soul
Author: Mrs. Cecil F. Alexander Appears in 104 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 When wounded sore, the stricken soul
Lies bleeding and unbound,
One only hand a pierced hand
Can heal the sinner's wound.
2 When sorrow swells the laden breast,
And tears of anguish flow,
One only heart a broken heart
Can feel the sinner's woe.
3 When penitence has wept in vain
Over some foul, dark spot,
One only stream a stream of blood
Can wash away the blot.
4 'Tis Jesus' blood that washes white,
His hand that brings relief;
His heart that's touched with all our joys,
And feels for all our grief.
5 Lift up thy bleeding hand, O Lord!
Unseal that cleansing tide;
We have no shelter from our sin
But in thy wounded side. Used With Tune: HOLY CROSS
When wounded sore, the stricken soul
Can sinners hope for heaven
Author: Anon. Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Can sinners hope for heaven,
Who love this world so well?
Or dream of future happiness,
While on the road to hell?
2 Shall they hosannas sing,
With an unhallowed tongue?
Shall palms adorn the guilty hand
Which does its neighbor wrong?
3 Can sin's deceitful way
Conduct to Zion's hill?
Or those expect with God to reign
Who disregard his will?
4 Thy grace, O God, alone,
Good hopes can e'er afford:
The pardoned and the pure shall see
The glory of the Lord. Used With Tune: OLMUTZ
Can sinners hope for heaven
How sad our state by nature is
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 291 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 How sad our state by nature is;
Our sin how deep it stains!
And Satan holds our captive minds
Fast in his slavish chains.
2 But there's a voice of sovereign grace,
Sounds from the sacred word;
"Ho! ye despairing sinners, come!
And trust a pardoning Lord."
3 My soul obeys the almighty call,
And runs to this relief;
I would believe thy promise, Lord;
O, help my unbelief!
4 A guilty, weak, and helpless worm,
In thy kind arms I fall;
Be thou my Strength and Righteousness,
My Saviour and my All. Used With Tune: MELODY
How sad our state by nature is
The Spirit in our hearts
Author: Henry Onderdonk Appears in 428 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Warning and Invitation Lyrics: 1 The Spirit in our hearts,
Is whispering, "Sinner, come;"
The holy Bride of Christ proclaims
To all her children, "Come!"
2 Let him that heareth say
To all about him, "Come!"
Let him that thirsts for righteousness
To Christ, the Fountain, come.
3 Yes, whosoever will,
O let him freely come,
And freely drink the stream of life;
'Tis Jesus bids him come.
4 Lo! Jesus, who invites,
Declares, "I quickly come;"
Lord, even so, we wait thy hour;
O blest Redeemer, come. Used With Tune: GOLDEN HILL
The Spirit in our hearts
Deep are the wounds which sin has made
Author: Anne Steele Appears in 166 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Deep are the wounds which sin has made;
Where shall the sinner find a cure?
In vain, alas! is nature's aid;
The work exceeds her utmost power.
2 But can no sovereign balm be found,
And is no kind physician nigh,
To ease the pain, and heal the wound,
Ere life and hope forever fly?
3 There is a great Physician near;
Look up, O fainting soul, and live;
See, in his heavenly smiles appear
Such help as nature cannot give. Used With Tune: WINDHAM

Hope smiles reviving round.

Here streams of bounty flow,
And life, and health, and bliss impart,
To banish mortal woe.
3 Ye sinners, come; 'tis mercy's voice;
The gracious call obey:
Mercy invites to heavenly joys,
And can you yet delay? Used With Tune: BALERMA
The Savior calls; let every ear
When, marshaled on the nightly plain
Author: Henry Kirke White Appears in 483 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 When marshaled on the nightly plain,
The glittering host bestud the sky,
One star alone of all the train
Can fix the sinner's wandering eye.
2 Once on the raging seas I rode;
The storm was loud, the night was dark,
The ocean yawned, and rudely blowed
The wind that tossed my foundering bark.
3 Deep horror than my vitals froze;
Death-struck, I ceased the tide to stem;
When suddenly a star arose,
It was the Star of Bethlehem.
4 It was my guide, my light, my all;
It bade my dark forebodings cease;
And through the storm and danger's thrall
It led me to the port of peace. Used With Tune: MISSIONARY CHANT

Come, ye sinners, poor and needy
Author: Joseph Hart Appears in 1,480 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Warning and Invitation Lyrics: 1 Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore.
Jesus ready stands to save you,
Full of pity, love and power.
He is able, He is able,
He is willing, doubt no more.
He is able, He is able,
He is willing doubt no more.
2 Ho, ye needy; come, and welcome;
God's free bounty glorify!
True belief and true repentance,
Every grace that brings us nigh,
Without money
Come to Jesus Christ and buy.
3 Let not conscience make you linger
Nor of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness he requireth
Is to feel your need of him;
This he gives you;
'Tis the Spirit's rising beam. Used With Tune: COME, YE SINNERS
Come, ye sinners, poor and needy
Mercy for the chief of sinners
