God calling yet, shall I not hear
O that I could repent!
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #249 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Prayer for penitence Lyrics: 1 O that I could repent!
With all my idols part;
And to thy gracious eye present
An humble contrite heart!
2 A heart with grief opprest,
For having griev'd my God;
A troubled heart that cannot rest
Till sprinkled with thy blood!
3 Jesus on me bestow,
The penitent desire;
With true sincerity of wo
My aching breast inspire;
4 With softening pity look,
And melt my hardness down;
Strike with thy love's resistless stroke,
And break this heart of stone!
O that I could repent!
O for that tenderness of heart
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #250 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Prayer for penitence Lyrics: 1 O for that tenderness of heart
Which bows before the Lord,
Acknowledges how just thou art,
And trembles at thy word!
2 O for those humble contrite tears
Which from repentance flow,
That consciousness of guilt, which fears
The long suspended blow!
3 Saviour, to me in pity give
The sensible distress,
The pledge thou wilt at last receive,
And bid me die in peace!
4 Wilt from the dreadful day remove
Before the evil come,
My spirit hide with saints above,
My body in the tomb. Scripture: 2 Kings 22:19
O for that tenderness of heart
Lord! shed a beam of heavenly day
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #251 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Prayer for penitence Lyrics: 1 Lord! shed a beam of heavenly day
To melt this stubborn stone away:
Now thaw, with rays of love divine,
This heart--this frozen heart of mine.
2 The rocks can rend; the earth can quake;
The seas can roar; the mountains shake;
Of feeling all things show some sign,
But this unfeeling heart of mine.
3 To hear the sorrow thou hast felt,
What but an adamant would melt?
Goodness and wrath, in vain combine
To move this stupid heart of mine.
4 But One can yet perform the deed;
The One in all his grace I need;
Thy Spirit can from dross refine,
And melt this stubborn heart of mine.
5 Oh, Breath of Life, breathe on my soul!
On me let streams of mercy roll:
Now thaw with rays of love divine
This heart, this frozen heart of mine.
Lord! shed a beam of heavenly day
O that I could repent!
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #252 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Prayer for penitence Lyrics: 1 O that I could repent!
O that I could believe
Thou, by thy voice the marble rent,
The rock in sunder cleave!
Thou, by thy two-edg'd sword,
My soul and spirit part;
Strike with the hammer of thy word,
And break my stubborn heart.
2 Saviour and Prince of peace,
The double grace bestow;
Unloose the bands of wickedness,
And let the captive go:
Grant me my sins to feel,
And then the load remove:--
Wound, and pour in, my wounds to heal,
The balm of pard'ning love.
3 For thine own mercy's sake,
The hindrance now remove,
And into thy protection take
The pris'ner of thy love:
In every trying hour,
Stand by my feeble soul,
And screen me from my nature's power,
Till thou hast made me whole.
4 This is thy will, I know,
That I should holy be;
Should let my sins this moment go,
This moment turn to thee:
O might I now embrace
Thine all-sufficient power!
And never more to sin give place,
And never grieve thee more.
O that I could repent!
O for a glance of heav'nly day
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #253 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Prayer for penitence Lyrics: 1 O for a glance of heav'nly day,
To take this stubborn heart away;
And thaw with beams of love divine
This heart, this frozen heart of mine!
2 The rocks can rend; the earth can quake;
The seas can roar; the mountains shake;
Of feeling all things show some sign,
But this unfeeling heart of mine.
3 To hear the sorrows thou hast felt,
O Lord, an adamant would melt;
but I can read each moving line,
And nothing moves this heart of mine.
4 Thy judgments too, unmov'd I hear,
(Amazing thought!) which devils fear,
Goodness and wrath in vain combine,
To stir this stupid heart of mine.
5 Eternal Spirit! mighty God!
Apply to me the Saviour's blood
'Tis his rich blood and his alone,
Can move and melt this heart of stone. Scripture: Ezekiel 36:26
O for a glance of heav'nly day
Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in sin
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #254 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Penitence Lyrics: 1 Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in sin;
And born unholy and unclean;
Sprung from the man whose guilty fall
Corrupts the race, and taints us all.
2 Soon as we draw our infant breath,
The seeds of sin grow up for death;
Thy law demands a perfect heart,
But we're defil'd in every part.
3 [Great God, create my heart anew,
And form my spirit pure and true;
O make me wise betimes to spy
My danger and my remedy.]
4 Behold, I fall before thy face;
My only refuge is thy grace:
No outward forms can make me clean;
The leprosy lies deep within.
5 No bleeding bird, nor bleeding beast,
Nor hyssop branch, nor sprinkling priest,
Nor running brook, nor flood, nor sea,
Can wash the dismal stain away.
6 Jesus, my God, thy blood alone
Hath power sufficient to atone;
Thy blood can make me white as snow;
No Jewish types could cleanse me so.
7 While guilt disturbs and breaks my peace,
Nor flesh, nor soul hath rest or ease;
Lord, let me hear thy pardoning voice,
And make my broken bones rejoice.
Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in sin
The Lord will happiness divine
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #255 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Penitence Lyrics: 1 The Lord will happiness divine
On contrite hearts bestow;
Then tell me, gracious God! is mine
A contrite heart or no?
2 I hear, but seem to hear in vain,
Insensible as steel;
If ought is felt, 'tis only pain
To find I cannot feel.
3 I sometimes think myself inclin'd
To love thee, if I could;
But often feel another mind,
Averse to all that's good.
4 My best desires are faint and few,
I fain would strive for more;
But when I cry, "My strength renew,"
Seem weaker than before.
5 Thy saints are comforted, I know
And love thy house of pray'r;
I sometimes go where others go,
But find no comfort there.
6 Oh, make this heart rejoice or ache;—
Decide this doubt for me;
And, if it be not broken, break—
And heal it, if it be. Scripture: Isaiah 57:15
The Lord will happiness divine
