While Sinners Utter Boasting Words

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 While sinners utter boasting words, And glory in their shame; The Lord, well pleased, an ear affords To those who fear His name. 2 They often meet to seek His face, And what they do or say, Is noted in His book of grace, Against another day. 3 For they, by faith, a day descry, A joyfully expect, When He, descending from the sky, His jewels will collect. 4 Unnoticed now, because unknown, A poor and suffering few; He comes to claim them for His own, And bring them forth to view. 5 With transport then, their Savior’s care And favor they shall prove; As tender parents guard and spare The children of their love. 6 Assembled worlds will then discern The saints alone are blest; When wrath shall like an oven burn, And vengeance strike the rest.

Planted in Christ, the living vine

Author: S. F. Smith Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 104 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Planted in Christ, the living vine, This day, with one accord, Ourselves, with humble faith and joy, We yield to thee, O Lord. 2 Joined in one body may we be; One inward life partake; One be our heart; one heavenly hope In every bosom wake. 3 In prayer, in effort, tears, and toils, One wisdom be our guide; Taught by one Spirit from above, In thee may we abide. 4 Complete in us, whom grace hath called, Thy glorious work begun, O thou in whom the church on earth And church in heaven are one. 5 Around this feeble, trusting band Thy sheltering pinions spread, Nor let the storms of trial beat Too fiercely on our head. 6 Then, when, among the saints in light, Our joyful spirits shine, Shall anthems of immortal praise, O Lamb of God, be thine.

When Wounded Sore the Stricken Heart

Author: Cecil F. Alexander Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 104 hymnals First Line: When wounded sore, the stricken heart Lyrics: 1. When wounded sore, the stricken heart Lies bleeding and unbound, One only hand, a piercèd hand, Can salve the sinner’s wound. 2. When sorrow swells the laden breast, And tears of anguish flow, One only heart, a broken heart, Can feel the sinner’s woe. 3. When penitential grief has wept Over some foul dark spot, One only stream, a stream of blood, Can wash away the blot. 4. ’Tis Jesus’ blood that washes white, His hand that brings relief, His heart that’s touched with all our joys, And feels for all our grief. 5. Lift up Thy bleeding hand, O Lord, Unseal that cleansing tide; We have no shelter from our sin But in Thy wounded side. Used With Tune: ST. BERNARD (Richardson)

Shall I be mute, great God, alone ’Midst nature’s loud acclaim? Shall not my heart, with answering tone, Breathe forth Thy holy name? 4. All nature’s debt is small to mine; Nature shall cease to be; Thou gavest proof of love divine, Immortal life to me. Used With Tune: ARLINGTON

O That I Knew the Secret Place

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 222 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O that I knew the secret place Where I might find my God! I'd spread my wants before His face, And pour my woes abroad. 2 I'd tell Him how my sins arise, What sorrows I sustain, How grace decays, and comfort dies, And leaves my heart in pain. 3 He knows what arguments I'd take To wrestle with my God; I'd plead for His own mercy's sake, And for my Savior's blood. 4 My God will pity my complaints, And heal my broken bones; He takes the meaning of His saints, The language of their groans. 5 Arise, my soul, from deep distress, And banish every fear; He calls thee to His throne of grace, To spread thy sorrows there.
