God reasoning with Men
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 1:18 First Line: Come, sinners, saith the mighty God Lyrics: 1 Come, sinners, saith the mighty God,
Henious as all your crimes have been,
Lo! I descend from mine abode,
To reason with the sons of men.
2 No clouds of darkness veil my face,
No vengeful lightnings flash around;
I come with terms of life and peace;
Where sin hath reign'd let grace abound.
3 Yes, Lord, we will obey thy call,
And to thy gracious sceptre bow;
O make our crimson sins like wool,
Our scarlet crimes as white as snow.
5 So shall our thankful lips repeat
Thy praises with a tuneful voice,
While humbly prostrate at thy feet,
We wonder, tremble, and rejoice.

God is a Spirit, just and wise
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 156 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 1:11 Lyrics: 1 God is a Spirit, just and wise
He sees our inmost mind;
In vain to heaven we raise our cries,
And leave our souls behind.
2 Nothing but truth before his throne
With honor can appear;
The painted hypocrites are known
Through the disguise they wear.
3 Their lifted eyes salute the skies,
Their bended knees the ground;
But God abhors the sacrifice
Where not the heart is found.
4 Lord, search my thoughts, and try my ways,
And make my soul sincere;
Then shall I stand before thy face,
And find acceptance there. Topics: Attributes of God Spirituality; God is a Spirit

God Made a Way
Author: J. A. E. Meter: 9.9.9.9 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Isaiah 1:18 First Line: This wanton world in grossest error Lyrics: 1 This wanton world in grossest error
Is hast’ning toward the judgment morning;
’Twill meet the Judge in deepest terror,
For, blinded, it despised His warning.
Refrain 1-3:
God made a way, He sent salvation
To make of man a new creation,
To lay, in Christ, a firm foundation;
Oh, what a wondrous transformation!
2 How can a soul, black and polluted,
Meet such requirements so exalted?
Where sin has e’er reigned undisputed,
What hope is there it can be halted? [Refrain]
3 I was a helpless, lost offender,
Enslaved to every inner craving,
And, void of sight, could not surrender,
And sin’s black filth kept on engraving. [Refrain]
4 But God in mercy gave me vision,
And there I saw my true condition;
Yes, there I made the great decision:
Before the throne I made petition.
Refrain 4:
God made a way, He sent a Savior—
A heart washed white, in spotless glory,
A path that frees from misbehavior
To heaven’s gate—oh, wondrous story! [Refrain] Used With Tune: [This wanton world in grossest error] Text Sources: Timeless Truths (http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/God_Made_a_Way)
