Procrastination
Author: Thomas Hastings Appears in 361 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:1 First Line: Delay not, delay not; O sinner, draw near Lyrics: 1 Delay not, delay not; O sinner, draw near,
The waters of life are now flowing for thee;
No price is demanded; the Saviour is here;
Redemption is purchased, salvation is free.
2 Delay not, delay not, the Spirit of grace,
Long grieved and resisted, may take his sad flight,
And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race,
To sin in the gloom of eternity's night.
3 Delay not, delay not; the hour is at hand;
The earth shall dissolve, and the heavens shall fade,
The dead, small and great, in the judgment shall stand,
What helper, then, sinner, shall lend thee his aid? Topics: Access to God; Advent of Christ To Judgment; Christ Judge; Delay Used With Tune: EXPOSTULATION

Life is the time to serve the Lord

Reign in eternal silence there. Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Warnings ; The Time to Serve the Lord

Ye wretched, starving poor!

That trembles at his feet.

Author: Fanny J. Crosby, 1820-1915 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 317 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:1 Lyrics: 1 All the way my Saviour leads me;

Can I doubt his tender mercy
who through life has been my guide?

here by faith in him to dwell;
for I know, whate’er befall me
Jesus doeth all things well.
2 All the way my Saviour leads me,
cheers each winding path I tread,
gives me grace for every trial,
feeds me with the living bread.
Though my weary steps may falter,
and my soul athirst may be,
gushing from the rock before me
lo, a spring of joy I see.
3 All the way my Saviour leads me,
oh the fullness of his love!
Perfect rest to me is promised
in my Father’s house above.
When my spirit, clothed immortal,
wings its flight to realms of day,
this my song through endless ages,

At even, ere the sun was set
Author: Henry Twells Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 311 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 55:11 Lyrics: 1 At even, ere the sun was set,
the sick, O Lord, around thee lay;
O in what divers pains they met!
O with what joy they went away!
2 Once more 'tis eventide, and we
oppressed with various ills draw near;
what if thy form we cannot see?
we know and feel that thou art here.
3 O Saviour Christ, our woes dispel;
for some are sick, and some are sad,
and some have never loved thee well,
and some have lost the love they had;
4 And some have found the world is vain,
yet from the world they break not free;
and some have friends who give them pain,
yet have not sought a friend in thee;
5 And none, O Lord, have perfect rest,
for none are wholly free from sin;
and they who fain would serve thee best
are conscious most of wrong within.
6 O Saviour Christ, thou too art man;
thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried;
thy kind but searching glance can scan
the very wounds that shame would hide.
7 Thy touch has still its ancient power;
no word from thee can fruitless fall:
Hear, in this solemn evening hour,
and in thy mercy heal us all. Topics: Evening; Healing Used With Tune: ANGELUS
