The Old Congenial Man of Sin

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The A.M.E. 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

AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: GREENVILLE

Ye Full, of Confidence Unfound

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #397 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: The Call to Salvation Lyrics: 1 Ye full, of confidence unfound, Ye rich, if gifts and faith untried, Whose joys which nature mixt abound, Self-praise, self-pleased, self-satisfied, Slight not your aged fathers poor, Nor boast your own salvation sure. 2 Ye talkers of your perfect love, Who kings, without your teachers, reign, As pillars in the church above, That never can go out again, Be warned; or pride will cast you down, And Satan rob you of your crown. 3 We wish your full perfection here, We wish your soothing dreams were true, That faith's almighty Finisher Had formed your sinless souls anew, Stablished, enthroned in lasting peace, In all the heights of holiness. 4 O were the fiend expelled indeed From all who fancy him expelled! 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

Be It According to Thy Word

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: The A.M.E. Zion Hymnal #400 (1999) Meter: 8.8.6 D Topics: The Call to Salvation Lyrics: 1 Be it according to Thy word, Merciful unto all, O Lord. Be merciful to me: Avert the wrath I deprecate, Nor crush me with Thy judgments weight, Who would return to Thee, Who would return to Thee. 2 Thy wrath shall not forever last, If pained at my pollutions past, I groan to be made clean: And lo, I now with grief confess My inward parts are wickedness. And all my life is sin, And all my life is sin. 3 I have mine idols multiplied, Before the shrine of self and pride With vile devotion fell; Followed where'er the tempter led, And by each beastly, devilish deed Debased my soul to hell, Debased my soul to hell. 4 My heart was hardened from Thy fear, Thy warning voice I would not hear. But cast Thy words behind: Yet for my Saviour's sake forgive; And in Thy mercy's arms receive Our whole apostate kind, Our whole apostate kind. AMEN. Languages: English Tune Title: ARIEL
