All Must At Length Be Tried

Author: Baptist W. Noel Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 All must at length be tried, The dead from dust arise; Nor one of all earth’s millions hide From Christ’s all seeing eyes. 2 How will the faithless meet The terrors of that day, When Heav’n and earth before His seat, Astonished shrink away? 3 O sinner, seek His face Whose wrath you cannot bear; Welcome His yoke, accept His grace, And find salvation there. 4 So will you bless the hour, When for your sake He bled; And that last awful day shall pour New blessings on your head.

Out Of The Deep I Cry To Thee

Author: Martin Luther; Arthur T. Russell Meter: 8.7.87.8.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Out of the deep I cry to Thee; O Lord God, hear my crying; Incline Thy gracious ear to me, With prayer to Thee applying. For if Thou fix Thy searching eye On sin and all iniquity, Who, Lord, can stand before Thee? 2 But love and grace with Thee prevail, O God! our sins forgiving! The holiest deeds can naught prevail Of all before Thee living. Before Thee none can boast him clear; Therefore must each Thy judgment fear, And live on Thy compassion. 3 For this my hope in God shall rest, Naught building on my merit: My heart confides, of Him possessed: His goodness stays my spirit. His precious blood assureth me My solace, my sure rock is He; Hereon my soul abideth. 4 And though I wait the livelong night, And till the morn returneth, My heart undoubting trusts His might, Nor in impatience mourneth. Born of His Spirit Israel In the right way thus fareth well, And on his God reposeth. 5 What though our sins are manifold, Supreme His mercy reigneth; No limit can His hand withhold, Where evil most obtaineth. He the good Shepherd is alone, Who Israel will redeem and own, Forgiving all transgression. Used With Tune: AUS TIEFER NOT Text Sources: Psalms and Hymns (Cambridge, England: John Deighton, 1851)

Attend, Ye Saints

Author: Anonymous Meter: 8.8.8.8.7 Appears in 57 hymnals First Line: Atttend, ye saints, and hear me tell Lyrics: 1 Atttend, ye saints, and hear me tell The wonders of Immanuel; Who saved me from a burning hell, And brought my soul with Him to dwell, And feel a blessèd union. 2 At first He saw me from on high, Beheld my soul in ruin lie; He looked on me with pitying eye, And said to me as He passed by, "With God you have no union." 3 Then I began to mourn and cry, I looked this way and that to fly; It grieved me for that I must die, I strove salvation for to buy But still I had no union. 4 But when my Savior took me in, And with His blood did wash me clean, ’Twas then I hated every sin; And O! what seasons I have seen, E’er since I felt this union. 5 I praised the Lord both night and day, From house to house I went to pray; And if I met one on the way, I always had some word to say About this blessèd union. 6 I wonder why old saints don’t sing, And praise the Lord upon the wing, And make the heav’nly arches ring, With loud hosannas to their king, Who brought their souls to union. 7 O come, backsliders, come away, And learn to do as well as say; And mind to watch as well as pray: Come, bear your cross from day to day, And then you’ll feel this union. 8 Soon we shall break all nature’s ties, On wings of love our souls shall rise, And shout salvation through the skies, And gain the mark and win the prize, And feel a heav’nly union. 9 Then every saint that’s here below, Will leave these climes of pain and woe; And they will home to glory go; And there they’ll hear and see and know And feel this perfect union. 10 There we the glorious Lamb shall see, Who groaned and died upon the tree, For sinners such as you and me, That we might His salvation see, And feel a heav’nly union. 11 When we recount life’s dangers o’er, Review the labors which we bore; And see ourselves safe on the shore, With love our conqueror we’ll adore, And feel increasing union. 12 When countless years have rolled away, Our vigor suffering no decay, We’ll all as one with rapture say, We still remember well the day Our souls first felt this union. 13 Reign, glorious Jesus, reign on high, ’Tis Thou that brought us rebels nigh; We’ll shout redemption through the sky, And praise Thee to eternity For such a glorious union. 14 The hosts of Heav’n shall all agree, In purest strains of symphony; And shout, "Eternal glory be To three in One, and One in three," Crying, "O this glorious union."

O come, come all, ye weak and weary, Ye souls bowed down with many a care; Arise and leave your dungeons dreary And listen to His promise fair: Ye bore your burdens meek and lowly, I will fulfill My pledge most holy, I’ll be your solace and your rest. Ye are Mine own, I will requite you; Though sin and Satan seek to smite you, Rejoice! Your home is with the blest.; 4. There rest and peace in endless measure Shall be ours through eternity; No grief, no care, shall mar our pleasure, And untold bliss our lot shall be. Oh, had we wings to hasten yonder— No more o’er earthly ills to ponder— To join the glad, triumphant band! Make haste, my soul, forget all sadness; For peace awaits thee, joy and gladness— The perfect rest is nigh at hand.
