Jesus, Thou art my Righteousness

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 27 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thou art my Righteousness, For all my sins were Thine: Thy death hath bought of God my peace, Thy life hath made Him mine. 2 Forever here my rest shall be, Close to Thy bleeding side; This all my hope, and all my plea: For me the Saviour died. 3 My dying Saviour and my God, fountain for guilt and sin. Sprinkle me ever with Thy Blood, And cleanse and keep me clean. 4 Jesus, my Strength, my Life, my Rest, On Thee will I depend, Till summoned to the marriage-feast, Where faith in sight shall end. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Faith Used With Tune: ST. AGNES

Chief of sinners though I be

Author: William M'Comb Appears in 90 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Chief of sinners though I be, Jesus shed His Blood for me; Died, that I might live on high; Lives, that I might never die. 2 O the height of Jesus' love! Higher than the heavens above, Deeper than the depths of sea, Lasting as eternity. 3 Only Jesus can impart Balm to heal the smitten heart, Peace that flows from sin forgiven, Joy that lifts the soul to heaven. 4 Chief of sinners though I be, Christ is all in all to me; All my wants to Him are known, All my sorrows are His own.

Rock of Ages, cleft for me

Author: Augustus Montague Toplady Appears in 2,902 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee; Let the Water and the Blood, From Thy riven side which flowed, Be of sin the double cure, Cleanse me from its guilt and power. 2 Not the labors of my hands Can fulfill Thy Law's demands; Could my zeal no respite know, Could my tears forever flow, All for sin could not atone; Thou must save, and Thou alone. 3 Nothing in my hand I bring, Simply to Thy Cross I cling; Naked, come to Thee for dress, Helpless, look to Thee for grace. Foul, I to the fountain fly; Wash me, Saviour, or I die! 4 While I draw this fleeting breath, When mine eyelids close in death, When I soar to worlds unknown, See Thee on Thy judgment-throne, Rock of Ages, cleft for me, Let me hide myself in Thee! Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Faith Used With Tune: TOPLADY

Now to be Thine, yea, Thine alone, O Lamb of God, I come, I come! Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Faith Used With Tune: QUEBEC (HESPERUS)

Not all the blood of beasts

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 602 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace Or wash away the stain. 2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, Takes all our sins away; A Sacrifice of nobler name, And richer blood than they. 3 My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of Thine, While like a penitent I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burden Thou didst bear When hanging on the cursèd Tree, And knows her guilt was there. 5 Believing, we rejoice To see the curse remove; We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice, And sing His bleeding love. Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Faith Used With Tune: ST. BRIDE
