Not all the blood of beasts

Hymnal: BW1870 #135 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace, Or wash away the stain. 2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, Takes all our sins away; A sacrifice of nobler name And richer blood than they. 3 My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of Thine, While as a penitent I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burden Thou didst bear When hanging on the curséd tree, And hopes her guilt was there.

There is a fountain fill'd with blood

Hymnal: BW1870 #136 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain fill'd with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins; And sinners plunged beneath that flood Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away! 3 Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransom'd church of God Be saved to sin no more. 4 E'er since, by faith, I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die. 5 Then, in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing Thy power to save; When this poor lisping, stamm'ring tongue Lies silent in the grave. 6 Lord, I believe Thou hast prepared (Unworthy though I be) For me a blood-bought free reward, A golden harp for me! 7 'Tis strung and tuned for endless years, And form'd by power divine; To sound in God the Father's ears No other name but Thine.

Enslaved by sin, and bound in chains

Hymnal: BW1870 #137 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Enslaved by sin, and bound in chains, Beneath its dreadful tyrant sway, And doom'd to everlasting pains, We wretched, guilty captives lay. 2 Nor gold nor gems could buy our peace; Nor the whole world’s collected store Suffice to purchase our release; A thousand worlds were all too poor. 3 Jesus, the Lord, the mighty God, An all-sufficient ransom paid: Oh, matchless price! His precious blood For vile, rebellious traitors shed. 4 Jesus the sacrifice became To rescue guilty souls from hell; The spotless, bleeding, dying Lamb Beneath avenging justice fell. 5 Amazing goodness! love divine! Oh, may our grateful hearts adore The matchless grace; nor yield to sin Nor wear its cruel fetters more!

Hark! the voice of love and mercy

Hymnal: BW1870 #138 (1870) Lyrics: 1 Hark! the voice of love and mercy Sounds aloud from Calvary! See! it rends the rocks asunder, Shakes the earth, and veils the sky! "It is finish'd!" Hear the dying Saviour cry! 2 It is finish'd!--Oh, what pleasure Do these charming words afford! Heavenly blessings, without measure, Flow to us from Christ the Lord! It is finish'd! Saints, the dying words record. 3 Finish'd all the types and shadows Of the ceremonial law! Finish'd all that God had promised; Death and hell no more shall awe. It is finish'd! Saints, from hence your comfort draw. 4 Tune your harps anew, ye seraphs, Join to sing the pleasing theme; All on earth, and all in heaven, Join to praise Immanuel's name: Hallelujah! Glory to the bleeding Lamb! Topics: Atonement; Christ Redeemer of mankind; Love Of Christ; Redeemer; Rédemption; Salvation Through Christ Languages: English

Dearest of all the names above

Hymnal: BW1870 #139 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Dearest of all the names above, My Jesus, and my God, Who can resist Thy heavenly love, Or trifle with Thy blood? 2 ’Tis by the merits of Thy death The Father smiles again; ’Tis by Thine interceding breath The Spirit dwells with men. 3 Till God in human flesh I see, My thoughts no comfort find; The holy, just, and sacred Three Are terrors to my mind. 4 But if Immanuel’s face appear, My hope, my joy begins; His name forbids my slavish fear, His grace removes my sins. 5 While Jews on their own law rely, And Greeks of wisdom boast, I love th’incarnate mystery, And there I fix my trust.

He dies! the Friend of sinners dies!

Hymnal: BW1870 #140 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 He dies! the Friend of sinners dies! Lo! Salem's daughters weep around; A solemn darkness veils the skies, A solemn trembling shakes the ground. 2 Here's love and grief beyond degree: The Lord of glory dies for men! But lo!--what sudden joys we see! Jesus, the dead, revives again. 3 The rising God forsakes the tomb, In vain the tomb forbids His rise: Cherubic legions guard Him home, And shout Him welcome to the skies. 4 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell How high our great Deliv'rer reigns; Sing how He spoil'd the hosts of hell, And led the monster Death in chains. 5 Say: "Live for ever, wondrous King! Born to redeem, and strong to save!" Then ask the monster: "Where's thy sting?" And where's thy vict'ry, boasting grave?"

Thou art my hiding-place, O Lord!

Hymnal: BW1870 #141 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Thou art my hiding-place, O Lord! In Thee I put my trust, Encouraged by Thy holy word-- A feeble child of dust. 2 I have no argument beside, I urge no other plea; And 'tis enough my Saviour died, My Saviour died for me! 3 When storms of fierce temptation beat, And furious foes assail, My refuge is the mercy-seat, My hope within the veil. 4 And when Thine awful voice commands This body to decay, And life, in its last lingering sands, Is ebbing fast away,-- 5 Then, though it be in accents weak, My voice shall call on Thee, And ask for strength in death to speak, "My Saviour died for me."

Arise, my soul, arise

Hymnal: BW1870 #142 (1870) Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears, The bleeding Sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my Surety stands, My name is written on His hands. 2 He ever lives above, For me to intercede; His all-redeeming love, His precious blood to plead; His blood atoned for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds He bears, Received on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers, They strongly speak for me; Forgive him, oh, forgive, they cry, Nor let that ransom'd sinner die. 4 The Father hears Him pray, His dear anointed One; He cannot turn away The presence of His Son: His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God. 5 My God is reconciled, His pard'ning voice I hear: He owns me for His child, I can no longer fear; With confidence I now draw nigh, And "Father, Abba Father!" cry.

He lives, the great Redeemer lives

Hymnal: BW1870 #143 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 He lives, the great Redeemer lives, What joy the blest assurance gives! And now, before His Father, God, Pleads the full merit of His blood. 2 Repeated crimes awake our fears, And justice arm'd with frowns appears; But in the Saviour's lovely face Sweet mercy smiles, and all is peace. 3 Hence, then, ye black, despairing thoughts! Above our fears, above our faults, His powerful intercessions rise, And guilt recedes and terror dies. 4 In ev'ry dark, distressful hour, When sin and Satan join their power, Let this dear hope repel the dart, That Jesus bears us on His heart. 5 Great Advocate, Almighty Friend-- On Him our humble hopes depend: Our cause can never, never fail, For Jesus pleads, and must prevail.

Jesus, my great High Priest

Hymnal: BW1870 #144 (1870) Lyrics: 1 Jesus, my great High Priest, Offered His blood and died; My guilty conscience seeks No sacrifice beside. His powerful blood did once atone, And now it pleads before the throne. 2 To this dear Surety's hand Will I commit my cause; He answers and fulfils His Father's broken laws. Behold my soul at freedom set; My Surety paid the dreadful debt. 3 My Advocate appears For my defence on high; The Father bows His ears, And lays His thunder by. Not all that hell or sin can say, Shall turn His heart, His love away. 4 Should all the hosts of death, And powers of hell unknown, Put their most dreadful forms Of rage and mischief on, I shall be safe, for Christ displays Superior power and guardian grace.
