Mourning souls, by sin distressed

Author: Burnham Meter: 8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 Mourning souls, by sin distressed, Lost and ruined, void of good, You can never be released, But by faith in Jesus’ blood. 2 Richly flowed the crimson river, Down Immanuel’s lovely side; And that blood will you deliver, Whensoever ’tis applied. 3 Christ is ready to receive you; See his bloody cross appear. From your sins he will relieve you, And dissolve your every fear. 4 O behold the Lord expiring; See the suffering Lamb of God! And that love be much admiring, Which appears in streams of blood. Topics: Sufferings, Death, and Cross of Christ Scripture: John 19:3-4

Brethren, we have met to worship

Meter: 8.7 Appears in 249 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Brethren, we have met to worship, And adore the Lord our God; Will you pray with all your power, While we try to preach the word. All is vain, unless the Spirit Of the Holy One come down; Brethren, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 2. Brethren, see poor sinners round you, Trembling on the brink of woe; Death is coming, hell is moving; Can you bear to let them go? See our fathers--see our mothers, And our children sinking down; Brethren, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 3. Sisters, will you join and help us? Moses' sisters aided him; Will you help the trembling mourners, Who are struggling hard with sin? Tell them all about the Savior, Tell him that he will be found; Sisters, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 4. Is there here a trembling jailer, Seeking grace, and filled with fears. Is there here a weeping Mary, Pouring forth a flood of tears? Brethren, join your cries to help them Sisters, let your prayers abound; Pray, O! pray, that holy manna May be scattered all around. 5. Let us love our God supremely, Let us love each other too; Let us love and pray for sinners, Till our God makes all things new Then he'll call us home to heaven, At his table we'll sit down. Christ will gird himself and serve us With sweet manna all around. Used With Tune: HOLY MANNA

Hark! the voice of Jesus crying

Meter: 8.7 Appears in 506 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of Jesus crying, "Who will go and work today? Fields are white, and harvests waiting, Who will bear the sheaves away?" Loud and long the Master calleth, Rich reward He offers thee: Who will answer, gladly saying, "Here am I; send me, send me?" 2 If you cannot cross the ocean, And the heathen lands explore, You can find the heathen nearer, You can help them at your door. If you cannot give your thousands, You can give the widow's mite; And the least you give for Jesus Will be precious in His sight. 3 If you cannot be a watchman, Standing high on Zion's wall, Pointing out the path to heaven, Offering life and peace to all; With your prayers and with your bounties You can do what heaven demand; You can be like faithful Aaron, Holding up the prophet's hands. 4 Let none hear you idly saying, "There is nothing I can do," While the souls of men are dying, And the Master calls for you. Take the task He gives you gladly, Let His work your pleasure be; Answer quickly when He calleth-- "Here am I; send me, send me."

Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee

Author: Francis Scott Key Meter: 8.7 Appears in 280 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee For the bliss Thy love bestows, For the pardoning grace that saves me, And the peace that from it flows. Help, O God, my weak endeavor; This dull soul to rapture raise: Thou must light the flame, or never Can my love be warmed to praise. 2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee, Wretched wanderer, far astray; Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee From the paths of death away. Praise, with love's devoutest feeling, Him who saw Thy guilt-born fear, And the light of hope revealing, Bade the blood-stained Cross appear. 3 Lord, this bosom's ardent feeling Vainly would my lips express: Low before Thy footstool kneeling, Deign Thy suppliant's prayer to bless. Let thy grace, my soul's chief treasure, Love's pure flame within me raise: And, since words can never measure, Let my life show forth Thy praise.
