Appears in 13 hymnals First Line: I’ve heard of a Savior whose love was so strong Refrain First Line: My sins rose as high as a mountain Lyrics: 1 I’ve heard of a Savior whose love was so strong, He loved a poor sinner like me; He turned His back on the glorified throng, To save a poor sinner like me. The angels they sang Him from glory, I’m glad that they told me the story; He came from on high to suffer and die, To save a poor sinner like me. Refrain: My sins rose as high as a mountain, They all disappeared in the Fountain; He put my name down for a palace and crown, O bless His dear name, I am free. 2 This wonderful Savior took such a low place, To save a poor sinner like me; His hear to’erflowing with wondrous grace, To save a poor sinner like me. Was born in a stable and manger, In His own world was a stranger, With all things did part to win my hard heart, And save a poor sinner like me. [Refrain] 3 This Jesus had now here to lay His head, To save a poor sinner like me; He was a Lamb to the slaughter led, To save a poor sinner like me. Midst darkness my Savior is dying, “’Tis finished!” I hear Jesus crying; My soul may go free, He died on the tree, To save a poor sinner like me. [Refrain] 4 This God of all grace is waiting here now, To save a poor sinner like you; Come as you are, at the mercy-seat bow, He’ll save a poor sinner like you. Your life may be all rebellion, Still you may have this salvation; Back slider as well, I’m so glad to tell, He’ll save a poor sinner like you. [Refrain] Used With Tune: [I’ve heard of a Savior whose love was so strong]

Let there be no reservation, Give the Lord full right of way; He will come and heal His temple, For He's just the same to-day. [Chorus] 3 Do you doubt God’s will to heal you? Take His word and ask for light; If you seek in deep contrition, He will guide your heart aright. Do not fear to claim His promise, He will not your trust betray; When on earth He gladly healed them, And He's just the same to-day. [Chorus] 4 Oh! I’m glad to tell you, suff’rer, Christ has more than healing too; Life abundant, overflowing, He will gladly give to you. Step out boldly, claim His fulness, Let your sadness flee away; When on earth He made them happy, And He's just the same to-day.

The Death Line

Author: Addison Appears in 85 hymnals First Line: There is a time—we know not when, a point—we know not where Refrain First Line: Oh, come today, do not delay, too late it soon will be Lyrics: 1 There is a time—we know not when, a point—we know not where, That marks the destiny of men to glory or despair; There is a line, by us unseen, that crosses ev’ry path, The hidden boundary between God’s patience and His wrath. Refrain: Oh, come today, do not delay, too late it soon will be; To Jesus fly, for mercy cry, He waits to welcome thee. 2 To pass that limit is to die, to die as if by stealth; It does not quench the beaming eye, nor fade the glow of health; The conscience may be still at ease, the spirit light and gay; That which is pleasing, still may please, and care be thrust away. [Refrain] 3 But on that forehead God has set indelibly a mark, Unseen by man, for man, as yet, is blind and in the dark; And yet the doomed man’s path below like Eden may have bloomed, He did not, does not, will not know nor feel that he is doomed. [Refrain] 4 He thinks or feels that all is well, and ev’ry fear is calmed; He lives, he dies, he wakes in Hell, not only doomed but damned! Oh, where is this mysterious bourn by which our path is crossed, Beyond which God Himself hath sworn that he who goes is lost? [Refrain] 5 How far may we go on in sin? how long will God forbear? Where does hope end, and where begin the confines of despair? An answer from the skies is sent, “Ye that from God depart, While it is called “today” repent, and harden not your heart.” [Refrain] Scripture: Genesis 6:3 Used With Tune: [There is a time—we know not when, a point—we know not where]
