Alas! and Did My Savior Bleed
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748; Frederick Whitefield, 1829-1904; E. C. Deas, d. 1944 Hymnal: African Methodist Episcopal Church Hymnal #141 (2011) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: 1 John 4:19 First Line: Alas! and did my Savior bleed Refrain First Line: O how I love Jesus! Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Savior bleed,
And did my Sovereign die?
Would He devote that sacred head
For sinners such as I?
Refrain:
O how I love Jesus!
O how I love Jesus!
O how I love Jesus!
Because He first loved me.
2 Was it for crimes that I had done,
He groaned upon the tree?
Amazing pity! Grace unknown!
And love beyond degree! [Refrain]
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut His glories in,
When God, the mighty Maker, died
For man the creature's sin. [Refrain]
4 Thus might I hide my blushing face
While His dear cross appears;
Dissolve my heart in thankfulness,
And melt mine eyes to tears. [Refrain]
5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love I owe:
Here, Lord, I give myself away;
'Tis all that I can do.
I'll never forget Him,
I'll never forget Him,
I'll never forget Him
O Lord, remember me! Topics: Jesus Christ Suffering and Death; Consecration; Cross; Jesus Passion; Love; Loyalty Languages: English Tune Title: O HOW I LOVE JESUS

Blest Be the Tie That Binds
Author: John Fawcett Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Gray) #315 (1987) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Scripture: 1 John 4:11 Lyrics: 1 Blest be the tie that binds
our hearts in Christian love;
the fellowship of kindred minds
is like to that above.
2 Before our Father's throne
we pour our ardent prayers;
our fears, our hopes, our aims are one,
our comforts and our cares.
3 We share our mutual woes,
our mutual burdens bear,
and often for each other flows
the sympathizing tear.
4 When we are called to part,
it gives us inward pain;
but we shall still be joined in heart,
and hope to meet again.
5 This glorious hope revives
our courage by the way;
while each in expectation lives
and waits to see the day.
6 From sorrow, toil, and pain,
and sin, we shall be free;
and perfect love and friendship reign
through all eternity.

my Lord, my life, my way, my end,
accept the praise I bring.
5 Weak is the effort of my heart,
and cold my warmest thought;
but when I see you as you are
I'll praise you as I ought.

From ev'ry swelling tide of woes,
There is a calm, a sure retreat,
'Tis found beneath the mercy-seat.
2 There is a place where Jesus sheds
The oil of gladness on our heads;
A place than all besides more sweet;
It is the blood-bought mercy-seat.
3 There is a scene where spirits blend,
Where friend holds fellowship with friend;
Though sundered far, by faith they meet
Around one common mercy-seat.
4 Ah! whither could we flee for aid,
When tempted, desolate, dismayed;
Or how the hosts of hell defeat,
Had suffering saints no mercy-seat?
5 There, there on eagle wing we soar,
And sin and sense seem all no more,
And heaven comes down our souls to greet,
While glory crowns the mercy-seat.
