Delay Not, Delay Not, O Sinner, Draw Near

Author: Thomas Hastings Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 361 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near. The waters of life are now flowing for thee. No price is demanded; the Savior is here; Redemption is purchased, salvation is free. 2 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, to come, For mercy still lingers and calls thee today. Her voice is not heard in the vale of the tomb; Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away. 3 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 sink in the gloom of eternity’s night. 4 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 pow'r, then, O sinner, shall lend thee its aid? 5 Delay not, delay not! Why longer abuse The love and compassion of Jesus, thy God? A fountain is opened; how canst thou refuse To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? Amen. Topics: Invitation Scripture: Acts 24:25 Used With Tune: MALDWYN

I Would Not Live Alway; I Ask Not to Stay

Author: William A. Mühlenberg Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 701 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I would not live alway; I ask not to stay Where storm after storm rises dark o’er the way. The few lurid mornings that dawn on us here Suffice for life’s woes, are enough for its cheer. 2 I would not live alway; thus fettered by sin, Temptation without and corruption within; E’en rapture of pardon is mingled with fears, The cup of thanksgiving with penitent tears. 3 I would not live alway; no, welcome the tomb: Since Jesus hath lain there, I dread not its gloom. There sweet be my rest till He bid me arise To hail Him in triumph descending the skies. 4 Ah, who would live alway, away from his God, Away from yon heaven, that blissful abode, Where rivers of pleasure flow o’er the bright plains And noontide of glory eternally reigns; 5 Where saints of all ages in harmony meet, Their Savior and brethren transported to greet, While anthems of rapture unceasingly roll, And smile of the Lord is the feast of the soul? Amen. Topics: The Last Things Death and Burial Scripture: Job 7:16 Used With Tune: MALDWYN

O Shepherd of Israel, Hear Us

Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O Shepherd of Israel, hear us, give ear Lyrics: 1 O Shepherd of Israel, hear us, give ear; you lead Joseph forth like a flock in your care. 'Mid cherubim dwelling, enthroned in your might, shine forth in your glory, and send us your light. 2 In Ephr'im's, Manasseh's, and Benjamin's sight, O come now to save us, and stir up your might; O LORD God of hosts, in your mercy restore, and we shall be saved when your face shines once more. 3 How long will you turn in fierce anger away, O LORD God of hosts, when your people do pray? With tearbread of sorrow their table is laid, and tears in full measure their drink you have made. 4 A strife you have made us to neighbors around, our foes in their laughter and scoffing abound. O LORD God of hosts, in your mercy restore, and we shall be saved when your face shines once more. 5 A vine out of Egypt you brought from the land. Destroying the nations, this vine you did plant. You cleared out the ground to make room for your plant; it spread its deep roots and soon filled up the land. 6 The cedars majestic and mountains you made were sheltered and covered beneath its deep shade. Its branches afar to the sea did extend; and shoots from your vine to the River were sent. 7 O why have you taken its hedges away that all passing by pluck its fruit as their prey? The bear from the forest destroys it at will; the beasts of the field are devouring it still. 8 Return, God of hosts, in your mercy divine! Look down from the heavens and visit this vine; regard, LORD, this stock planted by your right hand, the son you made strong for yourself then to stand. 9 With ax they have hewn it, and burned it with fire; rebuke them, O LORD, in your terrible ire. But lay then your hand on the man at your right, the strong Son of Man made to stand in your sight. 10 Then we will not wander, nor turn from your way; revive us, O LORD, we will call on your name. O LORD God of hosts, in your mercy restore, and we shall be saved when your face shines once more.
