Come, O Thou traveler unknown
O that I could repent!
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 95 hymnals Used With Tune: SHAWMUT
O that I could repent!
Jesus, and shall it ever be
Author: Joseph Grigg Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1,271 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be,
A mortal man ashamed of Thee?
Ashamed of Thee whom angels praise,
Whose glories shine through endless days.
2 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon
Let midnight be ashamed of noon;
’Tis midnight with my soul till He,
Bright morning star, bids darkness flee.
3 Ashamed of Jesus, sooner far
Let evening blush to own a star;
He sheds the beams of light divine
O’er this benighted soul of mine.
4 Ashamed of Jesus, that dear Friend
On whom my hopes of heav’n depend!
No, when I blush, be this my shame,
That I no more revere His name. Used With Tune: CORINTH
Jesus, and shall it ever be
When I can read my title clear
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,227 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When I can read my title clear,
To mansions in the skies,
I’ll bid farewell to ev’ry fear,
And wipe my weeping eyes.
2 Should earth against my soul engage,
And fiery darts be hurled,
Then I can smile at Satan’s rage,
And face a frowning world.
3 Let cares, like a wild deluge, come,
Let storms of sorrow fall,
So I but safely reach my home,
My God, my heav’n, my all.
4 There I shall bathe my weary soul
In seas of heav’nly rest,
And not a wave of trouble roll
Across my peaceful breast. Used With Tune: PRIMROSE HILL
When I can read my title clear
What's this that steals, that steals upon my frame?

What's this that steals, that steals upon my frame?
Shed not a tear o'er your friend's early bier
Author: Mary Stanley Bunce Dana Appears in 79 hymnals Used With Tune: WHEN I AM GONE
Shed not a tear o'er your friend's early bier
And am I born to die?
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 204 hymnals Lyrics: 1 And am I born to die?
To lay this body down!
And must my trembling spirit fly
Into a world unknown?
2 A land of deepest shade,
Unpierced by human thought;
The dreary regions of the dead,
Where all things are forgot!
3 Soon as from earth I go,
What will become of me?
Eternal happiness or woe
Must then my portion be!
4 Waked by the trumpet sound,
I from my grave shall rise;
And see the Judge with glory crowned,
And see the flaming skies! Used With Tune: IDUMEA
And am I born to die?
Come, humble sinner, in whose breast
Author: Edmund Jones Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 702 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, humble sinner, in whose breast
A thousand thoughts revolve,
Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed,
And make this last resolve.
2 I’ll go to Jesus, though my sin
Hath like a mountain rose;
I know His courts, I’ll enter in,
Whatever may oppose.
3 I can but perish if I go,
I am resolved to try,
For if I stay away I know
I must forever die. Used With Tune: FAIRFIELD
Come, humble sinner, in whose breast
Why should we start and fear to die?
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 422 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Why should we start and fear to die?
What tim’rous worms we mortals are!
Death is the gate to endless joy,
And yet we dread to enter there.
2 The pains, the groans, the dying strife,
Fright our approaching souls away;
And we shrink back again to life,
Fond of our prison and our clay.
3 O if my Lord would come and meet,
My soul would stretch her wings in haste,
Fly fearless through death’s iron gate,
Nor feel the terrors as she passed.
4 Jesus can make a dying bed
Feel soft as downy pillows are;
While on His breast I lean my head,
And breathe my life out sweetly there. Used With Tune: PROSPECT
Why should we start and fear to die?
Grace! 'Tis a charming sound
Author: Philip Doddridge Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 825 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Grace! ’Tis a charming sound,
Harmonious to the ear;
Heav’n with the echo shall resound,
And all the earth shall hear.
2 Grace first contrived the way
To save rebellious man;
And all the steps that grace display,
Which drew the wondrous plan.
3 Grace taught my wand’ring feet
To tread the heav’nly road;
And new supplies each hour I meet,
While pressing on to God.
4 Grace all the work shall crown
Through everlasting days;
It lays in heav’n the topmost stone,
And well deserves our praise. Used With Tune: NINETY-THIRD PSALM
Grace! 'Tis a charming sound
