Sweet the moments, rich in blessing

Author: Walter Shirley Appears in 823 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sweet the moments, rich in blessing, Which before the cross I spend; Life and health and peace possessing, From the sinner's dying Friend. Love and grief my heart dividing, With my tears his feet I'd bathe; Constant still in faith abiding, Life deriving from His death, Life deriving from His death. 2 Truly blessèd is this station-- Low before His cross to lie; While I see divine compassion Beaming in His gracious eye. Here I'll sit, forever viewing Mercy streaming in His blood: Precious drops, my soul bedewing, Plead and claim my peace with God, Please and claim my peace with God. Amen.

Arise, my soul, arise

Author: Charles Wesley Appears in 885 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears, The bleeding Sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my Surety stands, Before the throne my Surety stands, My name is written on His hands. 2 He ever lives above, For me to intercede; His all-redeeming love, His precious blood to plead; His blood atoned for all our race, His blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers, They strongly speak for me: Forgive him, oh, forgive, they cry, Forgive him, oh, forgive, they cry, Nor let that ransomed sinner die. 4 To God I'm reconciled, His pardoning voice I hear: He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear: With confidence I now draw nigh, With confidence I now draw nigh, And, "Father, Abba Father!" cry. Amen.
