Arreak (1947-) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,507 hymnals Scripture: Romans 6:12-23 First Line: Amazing grace! how sweet the sound Lyrics: 1 Amazing grace! How sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me! I once was lost, but now am found: was blind, but now I see. 2 'Twas grace first taught my heart to fear and grace my fears relieved; how precious did that grace appear the hour I first believed! 3 The Lord has promised good to me, his word my hope secures; he will my shield and portion be as long as life endures. 4 Through many dangers, toils, and snares, I have already come; 'tis grace that brought me safe thus far, and grace will lead me home. 5 When we've been there ten thousand years bright shining as the sun, we've no less days to sing God's praise than when we'd first begun.

Take Time to Be Holy

Author: William D. Longstaff Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 328 hymnals Scripture: Romans 6:19 Lyrics: 1 Take time to be holy, speak oft with thy Lord; abide in him always, and feed on his Word. Make friends of God's children; help those who are weak; forgetting in nothing his blessing to seek. 2 Take time to be holy, the world rushes on; spend much time in secret with Jesus alone. By looking to Jesus, like him thou shalt be; thy friends in thy conduct his likeness shall see. 3 Take time to be holy, let him be thy guide, and run not before him, whatever betide; in joy or in sorrow, still follow thy Lord, and, looking to Jesus, still trust in his Word. 4 Take time to be holy, be calm in thy soul; each thought and each motive beneath his control; thus led by his Spirit to fountains of love, thou soon shalt be fitted for service above.
