Was left ajar for me? 2 That gate ajar stands free for all Who seek through it salvation; The rich and poor, the great and small, Of ev'ry tribe and nation.

How Beauteous are Their Feet

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 715 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How beauteous are their feet, Who stand on Zion's hill! Who bring salvation on their tongues, And words of peace reveal. 2 How charming is their voice! How sweet their tidings are! Zion, behold thy Saviour King; He reigns and triumphs here. 3 How happy are our ears, That hear this joyful sound, Which kings and prophets waited for, And sought, but never found! 4 How blessèd are our eyes, That see this heavenly light! Prophets and kings desired it long, But died without the sight. 5 The watchmen join their voice, And tuneful notes employ; Jerusalem breaks forth in songs, And deserts learn the joy. 6 The Lord makes bare His arm Through all the earth abroad; Let all the nations now behold Their Saviour and their God.

Saviour, Sprinkle Many Nations

Author: Arthur Cleveland Coxe Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 161 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Saviour, sprinkle many nations, Fruitful let Thy sorrows be; By Thy pains and consolations Draw the Gentiles unto Thee. Of Thy cross the wondrous story, Be it to the nations told; Let them see Thee in Thy glory, And Thy mercy manifold. 2 Far and wide, though all unknowing, Pants for Thee each mortal breast: Human tears for Thee are flowing, Human hearts in Thee would rest. Thirsting as for dews of even, As the new-mown grass for rain, Thee they seek, as God of heaven, Thee as Man, for sinners slain. 3 Saviour, lo, the isles are waiting, Stretched the hand, and strained the sight, For Thy Spirit, new-creating, Love's pure flame, and wisdom's light. Give the word, and of the preacher Speed the foot, and touch the tongue, Till on earth by every creature, Glory to the Lamb be sung. Amen.

God of Mercy! God of Grace!

O restore Thy suppliant race, Thou to whom our praise belongs! 2 Deep regret for follies past, Talents wasted, time misspent; Hearts debased by worldly cares, Thankless for the blessings lent: 3 Foolish fears and fond desires, Vain regrets for things as vain: Lips too seldom taught to praise, Oft to murmur and complain; 4 These, and every secret fault, Filled with grief and shame, we own. Humbled at Thy feet we lie, Seeking pardon from Thy throne. Amen. Topics: Way of Salvation Repentance Used With Tune: WEBER (SEYMOUR)
