There is a Sea of Mercy

Author: C. K. Solberg Hymnal: CCHS1916 #109 (1918) Lyrics: 1 There is a sea of mercy, Wide as eternity; It gives the vile and guilty Salvation full and free; It is the blood of Jesus, Come, sinner, do not weep, From sin and guilt it cleanses, "Launch out into the deep!" 2 There is a sea of promise, Its waters, deep and wide, Most safely on its bosom You reach the other side. It is the word of Scripture With power to save and keep, So full of sweet assurance, "Launch out into the deep!" 3 There is a sea of service That you must daily brave; In spite of raging tempest, Sail out the lost to save! O Christian, do not linger, Shake off the sense of sleep, Away, away to rescue, "Launch out into the deep!" 4 Tho' doubts shall make you falter, And foes shall make you fear, Tho' disappointments gather And sure defeat seems near. Tho' storms are daily raging With fierce and awful sweep, If Jesus is your pilot, "Launch out into the deep!"

There is a Wideness in God's Mercy

Author: Frederick W. Faber Hymnal: CCHS1916 #110 (1918) First Line: There's a wideness in God's mercy Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy, Like the wideness of the sea: There’s a kindness in His justice, Which is more than liberty. There is welcome for the sinner, And more graces for the good; There is mercy with the Savior; There is healing in His blood. 2 There is no place where earth’s sorrows Are more felt than up in heaven; There is no place where earth’s failings Have such kindly judgment given. There is plentiful redemption In the blood that has been shed; There is joy for all the members In the sorrows of the Head. 3 For the love of God is broader Than the measures of man's mind; And the heart of the Eternal Is most wonderfully kind. If our love were but more simple, We should take Him at His word; And our lives would be all sunshine In the sweetness of our Lord.

Come, ye Disconsolate

Author: Thomas Moore; T. Hastings Hymnal: CCHS1916 #111 (1918) First Line: Come, ye disconsolate, where'er ye languish Lyrics: 1 Come, ye disconsolate, where’er ye languish, Come to the mercy-seat, fervently kneel; Here bring your wounded hearts, here tell your anguish; Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal. 2 Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure, Here speaks the Comforter, tenderly saying, Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot cure. 3 Here see the bread of life, see waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, pure from above; Come to the feast of love, come ever knowing Earth has no sorrow but Heaven can remove.

O Jesus, Thou art Standing

Author: William W. How Hymnal: CCHS1916 #112 (1918) Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Thou art standing Outside the fast-closed door, In lowly patience waiting To pass the threshold o'er: Shame on us, Christian brothers, His name and sign we bear; O shame, thrice shame upon us, To keep Him standing there! 2 O Jesus, Thou art knocking; And lo, that hand is scarred, And thorns thy brow encircle, And tears Thy face have marred; O love that passeth knowledge, So patiently to wait! O sin that hath no equal, So fast to bar the gate! 3 O Jesus, Thou art pleading In accents meek and low, "I died for you, My children, And will ye treat Me so?" O Lord, with shame and sorrow We open now the door; Dear Savior, enter, enter, And leave us never more. Topics: The Christian Life Call and Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: ST. HILDA

Not in Anger, Mighty God

Author: Miss C. Winkworth; J. G. Albinus Hymnal: CCHS1916 #113 (1918) Lyrics: 1 Not in anger, mighty God, Not in anger smite us. We must perish if Thy rod Justly should requite us. We are naught, Sin hath brought, Lord, Thy wrath upon us, Yet have mercy on us! 2 Show me now a Father's love, And His tender patience, Heal my wounded soul, remove These too sore temptations; I am weak, Father, speak Thou of peace and gladness, Comfort Thou my sadness. 3 Hence, ye foes! He comes in grace, God hath deigned to hear me; I may come before His face, He is inly near me; He o'erthrows All my foes, Death and hell are vanquished, In whose bonds I languished. 4 Father, hymns to Thee we raise, Here and once in heaven; And the Son and Spirit praise, Who our bonds have riven! Evermore We adore Thee whose love hath stirred us, And whose pity heard us. Topics: The Christian Life Call and Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: TRAEDER NU TIL HERRENS BORD

As after the Waterbrooks Panteth

Author: N. F. S. Grundtvig; C. Doving Hymnal: CCHS1916 #115 (1918) Lyrics: 1 As after the waterbrooks panteth The hart, when it sinks in the chase, So thirsteth my soul, as it fainteth, For Thee, O my God, and Thy grace; For Thou art the fount ever living, Who unto the thirsty art giving The water of life that I need. 2 Why art thou disquiet within me? Why art thou cast down, O my soul? Confide in thy God, let Him win thee! Still hope in thy God, Him extol! For surely once dawneth a morrow, When, freed from thy care and thy sorrow, Thou praises shalt sing to thy God. 3 His light and His truth, they shall lead me In peace to His temple at last; I rest on His Word, He will speed me, And conflict and sorrow are past; Yea, joyful I anthems will raise Him, With heart and with voice will I praise Him-- My health and my life and my God.

Almost Persuaded

Author: Philip P. Bliss Hymnal: CCHS1916 #117 (1918) First Line: "Almost persuaded" Lyrics: 1 “Almost persuaded” Now to believe; “Almost persuaded” Christ to receive; Seems now some soul to say, “Go, Spirit, go Thy way, Some more convenient day On Thee I’ll call.” 2 “Almost persuaded” Come, come today; “Almost persuaded” Turn not away; Jesus invites you here, Angels are ling’ring near, Prayers rise from hearts so dear: O wanderer, come. 3 “Almost persuaded,” Harvest is past! “Almost persuaded,” Doom comes at last! “Almost” cannot avail; “Almost” is but to fail!
