I see thy cross– there teach my heart to cling: O let me seek thee, and O let me find. 4 Teach me to feel that thou art always nigh; teach me the struggles of the soul to bear, to check the rising doubt, the rebel sigh; teach me the patience of unanswered prayer. 5 Teach me to love thee as thine angels love, one holy passion filling all my frame; the baptism of the heaven-descended Dove, my heart an altar, and thy love the flame.

Few saved; or The Almost Christians, the Hypocrites, and Apostate

Appears in 458 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 7:13 First Line: Broad is the Road that leads to Death Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to Death, And Thousands walk together there; But Wisdom shows a narrower Path, With here and there a Traveller. 2 Deny thyself, and take thy Cross, Is the Redeemer's great Command: Nature must count her Gold but Dross, If she would gain this heav'nly Land. 3 The fearful Soul that tires and faints, And walks the Ways of God no more, Is but esteem'd almost a Saint, And makes his own Destruction sure. 4 Lord, let not all my Hopes be vain, Create my Heart entirely new, Which Hypocrites could ne'er attain, Which false Apostates never knew.

I Stood Outside the Gate

Author: Josephine Pollard Meter: 6.6.6.6 D 6.6 Appears in 49 hymnals Scripture: Matthew 7:13 Lyrics: 1 I stood outside the gate, A poor way-faring child; Within my heart there beat A tempest loud and wild; A fear oppressed my soul, That I might be too late; And, oh, I trembled sore, And prayed outside the gate. 2 “O Mercy!” loud I cried, “Now give me rest from sin!” “I will,” a voice replied, And Mercy let me in: She bound my bleeding wounds, And soothed my heart oppressed, She washed away my guilt, And gave me peace and rest. 3 In Mercy’s guise I knew The Savior long abused, Who often sought my heart, And wept when I refused; Oh, what a blest return For all my years of sin! I stood outside the gate, And Jesus let me in.
