According to thy gracious word

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: SDAH1886 #1104 (1886) Lyrics: 1 According to thy gracious word, In meek humility, This will I do, my dying Lord, I will remember thee. 2 Thy body, broken for my sake, My bread from heaven shall be; Thy testamental cup I take, And thus remember thee. 3 Gethsemane can I forget? Or there thy conflict see, Thine agony and bloody sweat, And not remember thee? 4 When to the cross I turn mine eyes, And rest on Calvary, O Lamb of God, my Sacrifice! I must remember thee: 5 Remember thee, and all thy pains, And all thy love to me; Yea, while a breath, a pulse, remains, Will I remember thee. Topics: The Church Lord's Supper Tune Title: WESLEY

Acquaint thyself quickly, O sinner, with God

Author: Knox Hymnal: SDAH1886 #419 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Acquaint thyself quickly, O sinner, with God; And joy, like the sunshine, shall beam on thy road; And peace, like the dewdrop, shall fall on thy head; And sleep, like an angel, shall visit thy bed. 2 Acquaint thyself quickly, O sinner, with God; And he shall be with thee when fears are abroad, Thy Safeguard in danger that threatens thy path, The Joy in the valley and shadow of death.

Afflicted saint, to Christ draw near

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #695 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Afflicted saint, to Christ draw near, Thy Saviour's gracious promise hear; His faithful word declares to thee, That as thy day thy strength shall be. 2 Let not thy heart despond, and say, "How shall I stand the trying day?" He has engaged by firm decree, That as thy day thy strength shall be. 3 Thy faith is weak, thy foes are strong, And if the conflict should be long, Thy Lord will make the tempter flee, For as thy day thy strength shall be. 4 Should persecution rage and flame, Still trust in thy Redeemer's name; In fiery trials thou shalt see That as thy day thy strength shall be.

Again our earthly cares we leave

Author: John Newton Hymnal: SDAH1886 #7 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Again our earthly cares we leave, And to Thy courts repair; Again with joyful feet we haste, To meet our Saviour there. 2 Great Shepherd of thy people, here Thy presence now display: We bow within thy house of prayer; O give us hearts to pray! 3 The clouds which vail thee from our sight, In pity, Lord, remove; Dispose our minds to hear aright The message of thy love. 4 The feeling heart, the melting eye, The humble mind, bestow; And shine upon us from above, To make our graces grow.

Again the day returns of holy rest

Author: William Mason Hymnal: SDAH1886 #249 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Again the day returns of holy rest, Which, when he made the world, Jehovah blest; When, like his own, he bade our labors cease, And all be piety, and all be peace. 2 Let us devote this consecrated day To learn his will, and all we learn obey; So shall he hear, when fervently we raise Our supplications, and our songs of praise. 3 Lord of all worlds, incline thy gracious ear; Thy children's voice in tender mercy hear; Bear thy blest promise, fixed as hills, in mind, And shed renewing grace on lost mankind. 4 Father in heaven, in whom our hopes confide, Whose power defends us, and whose precepts guide, Through life our surest guardian and friend, Glory supreme be thine till time shall end.

Against the God that rules the sky

Author: Jehoida Brewer Hymnal: SDAH1886 #368 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Against the God that rules the sky I fought, with weapons lifted high; I madly ran the sinful race, Regardless of a hiding-place. 2 But a celestial voice I heard, A bleeding Saviour then appeared; Led by the Spirit of his grace, I found in him a hiding-place. 3 On him the weight of vengeance fell That else had sunk a world to hell; Then, O my soul, forever praise Thy Saviour, God, thy hiding-place!

Ah! guilty sinner, ruined by transgression

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #423 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Ah! guilty sinner, ruined by transgression, What will thy doom be when arrayed in terror? God shall command thee, covered with pollution, "Up to the judgment, up to the judgment?" 2 Oft he has called thee, but thou would'st not hear him; Mercies and judgments have alike been slighted; Yet he is gracious, and with arms unfolded Waits to embrace you. 3 But if you trifle with his gracious message, Cleave to the world, and love its guilty pleasures, Mercy, grown weary, will in righteous judgment Leave you forever. 4 Then you shall call, but he will not regard you; Seek for his favor, yet will never find it; Cry to the rocks to hide you from his presence Deep in their caverns. 5 O! guilty sinner, hear the voice of warning; Fly to the Saviour, and embrace his pardon: So shall you meet him, and with joy triumphant, Coming to judgment.

Ah, how shall fallen man

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #384 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Ah, how shall fallen man Be just before his God? If he contend in righteousness, We sink beneath his rod. 2 If he our ways should mark With strict inquiring eyes, Could we for one of thousand faults A just excuse devise? 3 All-seeing, powerful God! Who can with thee contend? Or who, that tries the unequal strife, Shall prosper in the end? 4 The mountains, in thy wrath, Their ancient seats forsake; The trembling earth deserts her place, Her rooted pillars shake. 5 Ah! how shall guilty man Contend with such a God? None, none, can meet him and escape, But through the Saviour's blood. Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Tune Title: OLMUTZ

Ah! whither should I go

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: SDAH1886 #453 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Ah! whither should I go, Burdened and sick, and faint! To whom should I my trouble show, And pour out my complaint! 2 My Saviour bids me come; Ah! why do I delay? He calls the weary sinner home, And yet from him I stay. 3 What is it keeps me back, From which I cannot part, Which will not let the Saviour take Possession of my heart? 4 Searcher of hearts, in mine Thy trying power display; Into its darkest corners shine, And take all sin awy.

Ah! why should doubts and fears arise

Author: Anon. Hymnal: SDAH1886 #663 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Ah! why should doubts and fears arise, And sorrow fill my weeping eyes? Too slow, alas! the mind receives The comforts that the gospel gives. 2 O, for a strong, a lasting faith, To rest on what the Almighty saith! To heed the message of his Son, And calls the joys of heaven my own. 3 Then, should the earth's old pillars shake, And all the wheels of nature break, My steadfast soul would fear no more Than solid rocks when billows roar.
