Faith Triumphing

Author: Toplady Meter: Irregular Appears in 101 hymnals First Line: A debtor to mercy alone Lyrics: 1 A debtor to mercy alone, Of covenant mercy I sing; Nor fear with thy righteousness on, My person and off'rings to bring: The terrors of law, and of God, With me can have nothing to do; My Saviour's obedience and blood Hide all my transgressions from view. 2 The work which his goodness began, The arm of his strength will complete, His promise is yea and amen, And never was forfeited yet: Things future, nor things that are now, Nor all things below, nor above, Can make him his purpose forgo, Or sever my soul from his love. 3 My name from the palms of his hands Eternity will not erase; Impressed on his heart it remains, In marks of indelible grace: Yes, I to the end shall endure, As sure as the earnest is giv'n; More happy, but not more secure, The glorifi'd spirits in heav'n. Topics: Faith, its Author, Preciousness, and Triumphs Scripture: Hebrews 11:1

Author: Moore Meter: Irregular Appears in 1,051 hymnals First Line: Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish Lyrics: Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish; Come, at the shrine of God fervently kneel! Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope, when all others die, fadeless and pure, Here speaks the Comforter, in God’s name saying, Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure. Here see the bread of life; see waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, living and pure; Come to the feast of love; come, ever knowing Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure.
