Soon the Summer Will Be Ended

Author: Lorenzo Cook Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 8:20 First Line: Grace is offered you, dear sinner Lyrics: 1 Grace is offered you, dear sinner, In this gospel day of time, Grace to save and keep from evil, And to make your life sublime. Refrain: Soon the summer will be ended, And the harvest will be o’er; Soon the day of offered mercy Will be past forevermore. 2 If you live and die a sinner, And reject God’s offered grace, You will cry for rocks and mountains, Thus to hide you from His face. [Refrain] 3 While in life is time accepted To prepare to meet the Lord, Be assured that He is faithful To fulfill His holy word.

Balm in Gilead

Author: Clara M. Brooks Meter: 13.13.13.14.13.14.13.13 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 8:22 First Line: Is there no balm in Gilead, and no physician there Refrain First Line: Yes, there is balm in Gilead, a great physician there Lyrics: 1 Is there no balm in Gilead, and no physician there, That people still should languish in sickness and despair? Is there no one to free them, no power to release? Yes, Jesus died to save from sin, from sickness and disease. Refrain: Yes, there is balm in Gilead, a great physician there, For Jesus died on Calvary our sicknesses to bear; Then ask in faith believing, His promises are true, Doubt not, but come receiving, there’s healing now for you. 2 To Christ, the wondrous Healer, they came at set of sun, With lame and halt and withered; He healed them, every one. The leper proved His power—that met Him in the way; He healed the deaf, the dumb, the blind; He’s just the same today. [Refrain] 3 The mighty name of Jesus has wondrous healing pow’r, He’ll banish your diseases—be healed this very hour! He suffered death to free us; our resurrected Lord Will send the healing stream to you when you believe His word. [Refrain] 4 O come, receive your healing, it is the children’s bread, The table stands before you, with Father’s bounty spread. Not one shall be excluded; the promises are true; You may be filled, O hungry one, the table’s spread for you.

The Harvest is Past

Author: Charles P. Jones Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Jeremiah 8:20 First Line: O how sad to have lived as did Israel of old Refrain First Line: The harvest is past, the summer is ended Lyrics: 1 O how sad to have lived as did Israel of old, In a land where Jehovah is known, With His good word to guide us to glories untold, And make us bright heirs to a throne, And still to neglect His way to pursue, And drive His good Spirit away; Yes, stubbornly fail His commandments to do, Till we, too, like Israel shall say: Refrain: The harvest is past, the summer is ended, And we are not saved, The harvest is past, the summer is ended, And we are not saved. 2 Brother, what shall we say when the Lord shall withdraw, And seek us in mercy no more? When His good Spirit, griev'd that we love not His law, Shall no longer knock at the door? Oh, what shall we plead! oh, how shall we do When Mercy and Truth shall depart? Twere vain then to rise and the Lord to pursue; Oh, list to that desolate heart: [Refrain] 3 When at last we shall see that the Bible is true, And we have rejected its light, Oh, tell me, dear brother, what then shall we do, When Judgment is rolling in sight? When Nineveh stands with Sodom of old, Condemning the men of this day, When those who lived godly shall enter the fold, Oh, brother, what then shall we say: [Refrain] 4 O how sad to look back on the deeds we have done; On the words of unkindness we've said, On the vows yet unkept, and the privilege gone, Before us eternity dread! How sad then to meet the Saviour we scorn In order to walk with the world! Oh, then shall we wish we had never been born, As downward to death we are hurled!

Is summer ended, harvest past

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Jeremiah 8:20 Lyrics: Is summer ended,--harvest past, And I not sav'd?--God of grace, Thy covenant yet standeth fast, Still Thy command is--"Seek my face." Ah! now or never may I call On Thy great Name, through Christ, Thy Son; This hour, this moment, I might fall,-- Fall, and for ever be undone. Save, Lord, I perish!--hear my cry; I walk in darkness,--Thou art light; 300 Shine forth upon my spirit's eye, Faith, that outsees the eye of sight. Faint, yet pursuing, I lay hold On Thy sure Word, which cannot fail; Through weakness strong, by fear made bold, I plead that Word, and must prevail. Thine own Almightiness is mine, When wrestling thus in prayer with Thee; Through Christ's atonement, I am Thine; Now let me Thy salvation see,

Thou hast gathered nought but leaves; Haste, for alas! the harvest may pass, Without any golden grain; Go to sowing and labor long, (Summer ends with a reaper’s song); Sing it again, your harvest refrain, Rejoicing with golden grain. 2 The fields that were white for the reaping, Stand sere in the twilight gray; The harvesters listen with weeping, To hear what their Lord will say.

We Love to Sound Your Praises

Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Jeremiah 8:18 First Line: We love to sound yoiur praises To lift our hands above Lyrics: We love to sound your praises, To lift our hands above, To sing how grace amazes, To celebrate your love. Yet, God, your world is grieving; Is your heart breaking, too? May we cry out, believing Laments can honor you. Like Jeremiah, crying For cities that were lost, We see the children dying Who know war’s awful cost. Each day repeats the story; Sin takes its toll again. How can we sing your glory When our hearts break with them? The scope of sin is broader Than what the late news tells; Rejecting living water, We dig our broken wells. In gods of our own making We look for joy each day; O God, is your heart breaking When we all turn away? O God, you came to save us In Christ, your suffering Son. In his death you forgave us; In his life, joy is won! And when this world is suffering, When songs of grief abound, May we work for your kingdom, Till alleluias sound!
