Lord, we Confess our Numerous Faults

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #241a (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Lord, we confess our numerous faults, How great our guilt has been: Foolish and vain were all our thoughts, And all our lives were sin. 2 But, O my soul, forever praise, Forever love His name, Who turns thy feet from dangerous ways Of folly, sin, and shame. 3 ’Tis not by works of righteousness Which our own hands have done; But we are saved by sovereign grace Abounding through His Son. 4 ’Tis from the mercy of our God That all our hopes begin; ’Tis by the water and the blood Our souls are washed from sin. 5 ’Tis through the purchase of His death Who hung upon the tree, The Spirit is sent down to breathe On such dry bones as we. 6 Raised from the dead we live anew; And justified by grace, We shall appear in glory too, And see our Father’s face. Amen. Topics: Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: SIONSTONER, NO. 295

Approach, My Soul, the Mercy Seat

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #242 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat, Where Jesus answers prayer; There humbly fall before His feet, For none can perish there. 2 Thy promise is my only plea, With this I venture nigh; Thou callest burdened souls to Thee, And such, O Lord, am I. 3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin, By Satan sorely pressed, By wars without and fears within, I come to Thee for rest. 4 Be Thou my Shield and Hiding-place, That, sheltered near Thy side, I may my fierce accuser face, And tell him, Thou hast died. 5 O wondrous love, to bleed and die, To bear the cross and shame; That guilty sinners such as I, Might plead Thy gracious Name. Amen. Topics: Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: LONDON NEW

How Helpless Guilty Nature Lies

Author: Anne Steele, 1716-1778 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #243 (1901) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How helpless guilty nature lies, Unconscious of its load! The heart unchanged can never rise To happiness and God. 2 Can aught beneath a power divine, The stubborn will subdue? ’Tis Thine, Almighty Saviour Thine, To form the heart anew. 3 ’Tis Thine the passions to recall, And upwards bid them rise; To make the scales of error fall From reason’s darkened eyes; 4 To chase the shades of death away, And bid the sinner live, A beam of heaven, a vital ray, ’Tis Thine alone to give. 5 Oh, change these wretched hearts of ours, And give them life divine! Then shall our passions and our powers, Almighty, Lord, be Thine. Amen. Topics: Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: NÄR NÖD OCH KRANKHET TYNGA PA

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: HOoS1901 #244 (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Show pity, Lord; O Lord! forgive; Let a repenting rebel live. Are not Thy mercies large and free? May not a sinner trust in Thee? 2 Great God, Thy nature hath no bound, So let Thy pardoning love be found. Oh, wash my soul from every sin, And make my guilty conscience clean! 3 My lips with shame my sins confess Against Thy law, against Thy grace: Lord, should Thy judgment grow severe, I am condemned, but Thou art clear. 4 Yet save a trembling sinner, Lord, Whose hope, still hovering round Thy Word, Would light on some sweet promise there, Some sure support against despair. Amen. Topics: Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: MIN LJUFVA TRÖST

Lord Jesus Christ, in Thee Alone

Author: Johannes Schneesing Hymnal: HOoS1901 #245a (1901) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8.4.8 Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus Christ, in Thee alone, My only hope on earth I place, For other comforter is none, No help have I but in Thy grace. There is no man nor creature here, No angel in the heavenly sphere, Who at my call can succor me. I cry to Thee, For Thee I trust implicitly. 2 My sin is very sore and great, I mourn beneath its dreadful load; Oh, free me from this heavy weight, My Saviour, through Thy precious blood; And with Thy Father for me plead That Thou hast suffered in my stead; From me the burden then is rolled. Lord, I lay hold On Thy dear promises of old. 3 And in Thy mercy now bestow True Christian faith on me, O Lord! That all the sweetness I may know Which in Thy holy cross is stored, Love Thee o'er earthly pride and self, And love my neighbor as myself; And when, at last, is come my end, Be Thou my friend, From Satan’s wiles my soul defend. 4 Glory to God in highest heaven, The Father of eternal love; For His dear Son, for sinners given, Whose watchful grace we daily prove; To God, the Holy Ghost on high; Oh, ever be His comfort nigh, And teach us, in His love and fear, To please Him here, And serve Him in the heavenly sphere!
