And Wilt Thou Pardon, Lord

Author: J. M. Neale; Joseph of the Studium Hymnal: ALH1930 #71 (1930) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And wilt Thou pardon, Lord, A sinner such as I? Although Thy book his crimes record, Of such a crimson dye? 2 So deep are they engraved, So terrible their fear-- The righteous scarcely can be saved, And where shall I appear? 3 O Thou, Physician blest, Make clean my guilty soul; And me, by many a sins oppressed, Restore and keep me whole! 4 I know not how to praise Thy mercy and Thy love; But deign my soul from earth to raise, And learn from Thee above. Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Languages: English Tune Title: ST. BRIDE

With Broken Heart And Contrite Sigh

Author: Cornelius Elven Hymnal: ALH1930 #72 (1930) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 With broken heart and contrite sigh, A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry; Thy pard'ning grace is rich and free: O God, be merciful to me. 2 I smite upon my troubled breast, With deep and conscience guilt oppressed; Christ and His cross my only plea: O God, be merciful to me. 3 Far off I stand with tearful eyes Nor dare uplift them to the skies; But Thou dost all my anguish see: O God, be merciful to me. 4 Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done, Can for a single sin atone; To Calvary alone I flee: O God, be merciful to me. 5 And when, redeemed from sin and hell, With all the ransomed throng I dwell, My raptured song shall ever be, God has been merciful to me. Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Languages: English Tune Title: ST. CROSS

He calls me still; can I delay? 3 God calling yet! -- and shall He knock, And I my heart the closer lock? He still is waiting to receive, And shall I dare His Spirit grieve? 4 God calling yet! - and shall I give No heed, but still in bondage live? I wait, but He does not forsake; He calls me still; -- my heart, awake! 5 Ah, yield Him all; in Him confide; Where but with Him doth peace abide? Break loose, let earthly bonds be riv'n, And let the spirit rise to heav'n! Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Languages: English Tune Title: HAMBURG

O Jesus, Thou Art Standing

Author: William Walsham How Hymnal: ALH1930 #77 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Thou art standing Outside the fast-closed door, In lowly patience waiting To pass the threshold o'er: Shame on us, Christian brethren, His Name and sign who bear, O shame, thrice shame upon us To keep Him standing there! 2 O Jesus, Thou art knocking; And lo! that hand is scarred, And thorns Thy brow encircle, And tears Thy face have marred. O love that passeth knowledge, So patiently to wait! O sin that hath no equal, So fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading In accents meek and low, I died for you, My children, And will ye treat Me so? O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door; Dear Savior, enter, enter, And leave us nevermore! Amen. Topics: The Means of Grace Penitence Languages: English Tune Title: ST. EDITH

The Church's One Foundation

Author: S. J. Stone Hymnal: ALH1930 #78 (1930) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 The Church’s one foundation Is Jesus Christ her Lord; She is His new creation By water and the Word; From heav'n He came and sought her To be His holy Bride; With His own blood He bought her, And for her life He died. 2 Elect from ev'ry nation, Yet one o'er all the earth, Her charter of salvation One Lord, one faith, one birth; One holy name she blesses, Partakes one holy food, And to one hope she presses, With ev'ry grace endued. 3 'Mid toil and tribulation, And tumult of her war, She waits the consummation Of peace forevermore; Till with the vision glorious Her longing eyes are blest, And soon the Church victorious Shall be the Church at rest. 4 Yet she on earth hath union With God the Three in One, And mystic sweet communion With those whose rest is won; O happy ones and holy! Lord, give us grace that we, Like them, the meek and lowly, On high may dwell with Thee. Amen.

Her walls before Thee stand Dear as the apple of Thine eye And graven on Thy hand. 3 Should I with scoffers join Her altars to abuse? No! better far my tongue were dumb, My hand its skill should lose. 4 O ne'er may I forget Her welfare nor her woe; Lest ev'ry joy my heart forsake, And ev'ry grief o'er flow. A-men. 5 For her my tears shall fall; For her my prayers ascend; To her my cares and toil be given Till toils and cares shall end. 6 Beyond my highest joy, I prize her heavenly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows, Her hymns of love and praise.

Flung To The Heedless Winds
