We Come, O Christ, to You
Author: E. Margaret Clarkson Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Christ The Way, Truth and Life Lyrics: 1 We come, O Christ, to you,
true Son of God and man,
by whom all things consist,
in whom all life began:
in you alone we live and move,
and have our being in your love.
2 You are the Way to God,
your blood our ransom paid;
in you we face our Judge
and Maker unafraid.
Before the throne absolved we stand,
your love has met your law’s demand.
3 You are the living Truth!
All wisdom dwells in you,
the Source of every skill,
the one eternal TRUE!
O great I AM! In you we rest,
sure answer to our every quest.
4 You only are true Life,
to know you is to live
the more abundant life
that earth can never give:
O risen Lord! We live in you:
in us each day your life renew!
5 We worship you, Lord Christ,
our Savior and our King,
to you our youth and strength
adoringly we bring:
so fill our hearts, that all may view
your life in us, and turn to you!

O, where shall rest be found
Author: James Montgomery Appears in 646 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 O, where shall rest be found
Rest for the weary soul?
'Twere vain the ocean depths to sound,
Or pierce to either pole.
2 This world can never give
The bliss for which we sigh;
Its fairest glories shortest live,
And all its pleasures die.
3 Beyond this vale of tears
There is a life above,
Unmeasured by the flight of years;
And all that life is love.
4 Through Christ, the Life, the Way,
May we that life obtain;
And through the merits of his blood
That endless glory gain.
Used With Tune: SHAWMUT

Strait is the way, the door is strait
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 115 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Strait is the way, the door is strait,
That leads to joys on high;
'Tis but a few that find the gate,
While thousands pass it by.
2 Beloved self must be denied,
The mind and will renewed,
Passion suppressed, and patience tried,
And vain desires subdued.
3 Lord! can a feeble, helpless worm
Fulfill a task so hard?
Thy grace must all my work perform,
And give the free reward. Used With Tune: MELODY
Strait is the way, the door is strait

Jesus, engrave it on my heart
Author: Samuel Medley Appears in 71 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Jesus, engrave it on my heart
That thou the one thing needful art;
I could from all things parted be,
But never, never, Lord, from thee.
2 Needful is thy most precious blood,
To reconcile my soul to God;
Needful is thy indulgent care,
Needful thy all-prevailing prayer.
3 Needful thy presence, dearest Lord,
True peace and comfort to afford;
Needful thy promise, to impart
Fresh life and vigor to my heart.
4 Needful art thou, my Guide, my Stay,
Through all life's dark and weary way;
Nor will at last less needful be
To bring me home to heaven and thee. Used With Tune: MISSIONARY CHANT
Jesus, engrave it on my heart
Ah, how shall fallen man
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 156 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life 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. Used With Tune: OLMUTZ
Ah, how shall fallen man
Broad is the road that leads to death
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 457 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death,
And thousands walk together there;
But wisdom shows a narrow path,
With here and there a traveler.
2 Deny thyself, and take thy cross,
Is thy Redeemer's great command;
Nature must count her gold but dross,
If she would gain that heavenly land.
3 The fearful soul that tires and faints,
And walks the ways of God no more,
Is but esteemed almost a saint,
And make his own destruction sure.
4 Lord, let not all my hopes be vain,
Create my heart entirely new;
Let thy sweet Spirit me sustain,
O guide me all life's journey through. Used With Tune: WINDHAM
Broad is the road that leads to death
Can sinners hope for heaven
Author: Anon. Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: The Sinner Christ the Way of Life Lyrics: 1 Can sinners hope for heaven,
Who love this world so well?
Or dream of future happiness,
While on the road to hell?
2 Shall they hosannas sing,
With an unhallowed tongue?
Shall palms adorn the guilty hand
Which does its neighbor wrong?
3 Can sin's deceitful way
Conduct to Zion's hill?
Or those expect with God to reign
Who disregard his will?
4 Thy grace, O God, alone,
Good hopes can e'er afford:
The pardoned and the pure shall see
The glory of the Lord. Used With Tune: OLMUTZ
Can sinners hope for heaven
