Christ in the Word

Unvail thy beauties to my sight, That I may love thee more. 2 Thy glory o'er creation shines;-- But in thy sacred word, I read, in fairer, brighter lines, My bleeding, dying Lord. 3 'Tis here, whene'er my comforts droop, And sin and sorrow rise, Thy love, with cheering beams of hope, My fainting heart supplies. 4 But ah! too soon the pleasing scene Is clouded o'er with pain; My gloomy fears rise dark between, And I again complain. 5 Jesus, my Lord, my life, my light! Oh, come with blissful ray; Break radiant through the shades of night, And chase my fears away. 6 Then shall my soul with rapture trace The wonders of thy love: But the full glories of thy face Are only known above.

"Friend of Sinners"

Author: John Newton Hymnal: Laudes Domini #204 (1888) Topics: Conformity First Line: One there is above all others Lyrics: 1 One there is above all others, Well deserves the name of Friend; His is love beyond a brother's, Costly, free, and knows no end: They who once his kindness prove Find it everlasting love. 2 Which of all our friends, to save us, Could or would have shed his blood? But our Jesus died to have us Reconciled in him to God: This was boundless love indeed! Jesus is a friend in need. 3 When he lived on earth abased, "Friend of sinners" was his name; Now above all glories raised, He rejoices in the same; Still he calls them brethren, friends, And to all their wants attends. 4 Could we bear from one another What he daily bears from us? Yet this glorious Friend and Brother Loves us though we treat him thus: Though for good we render ill, He accounts us brethren still. 5 Oh, for grace our hearts to soften! Teach us, Lord, at length to love; We, alas! forget too often What a Friend we have above: But when home our souls are brought, We will love thee as we ought. Scripture: Proverbs 18:24 Languages: English Tune Title: MURIEL

Willing both in hand and heart, Every law of love fulfilling. Every comfort to impart: Ever bringing offerings meet, Suppliants at thy mercy-seat. 5 Then shall sickness, sin, and sadness To thy healing power yield; Till the sick and sad in gladness, Rescued, ransomed, cleansed, healed, Shall the saints together meet, Pardoned at thy judgment seat!
