Christ and his Cross is all our Theme

Appears in 117 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:23-24 Lyrics: 1 Christ and his Cross is all our Theme; The Myst'ries that we speak Are Scandal in the Jews Esteem, And Folly to the Greek. 2 But Souls enlightened from above, With Joy receive the Word; They see what Wisdom, Pow'r, and Love, Shine in their dying Lord. 3 The vital Savour of his Name Restores their fainting Breath; But Unbelief perverts the same To Guilt, Despair, and Death. 4 Till God diffuse his Graces down, Like Show'rs of heav'nly Rain, In vain Apollos sows the Ground, And Paul may plant in vain.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing

Author: Robert Robinson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,212 hymnals Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:22 Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of every blessing, tune my heart to sing thy grace; streams of mercy, never ceasing, call for songs of loudest praise. Teach me some melodious sonnet, sung by flaming tongues above. Praise the mount– I'm fixed upon it– mount of God's unchanging love. 2 Here I raise my Ebenezer; hither by thy help I've come; and I hope, by thy good pleasure, safely to arrive at home. Jesus sought me when a stranger, wandering from the fold of God; he, to rescue me from danger, interposed his precious blood. 3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor daily I'm constrained to be! Let that grace now like a fetter, bind my wandering heart to thee: prone to wander, Lord, I feel it, prone to leave the God I love; here's my heart, oh, take and seal it; seal it for thy courts above.
