O God of Mercy! Hearken Now

Author: Miss E. S. Clark Hymnal: HOoS1926 #391 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God of mercy! hearken now; Before thy throne we humbly bow; With heart and voice to Thee we cry For all on earth who suff'ring lie. 2 We seek Thee where Thou dwell'st on high, Beyond the glitt'ring, starry sky: We find Thee where Thou dwell'st below Beside the beds of want and woe. 3 Be ours the hearts and hands to bless The sorrowing sons of wretchedness; Send Thou the help we cannot give; Bid dying souls arise and live. 4 O let the healing waters spring, Touched by Thy pitying angel's wing; With quickening power new strength impart To palsied will, to withered heart. 5 Where poverty in pain must lie, Where little suffering children cry, Bid us haste forth as called by Thee, And in Thy poor Thyself to see. 6 Be Thou, O God eternal, blest, Thy holy Name on earth confest! Echo Thy praise from every shore For ever and for evermore. Amen Topics: Missions Inner-Charities; Inner Missions; Prayer for the Sick Languages: English Tune Title: QUEBEC (HESPERUS)

Whoever here confesses Thee Shalt Thou confess in glory Where we shall dwell with Thee. Amen. Topics: Missions Inner-Charities; Inner Missions Languages: English Tune Title: O JESU! ÄN DE DINA

Fill us with love, Thou Love divine, Toward all who in affliction pine, Let us reflect Thy patience. 3 O dearest Lord, remember those In bonds of dread diseases; Incarnate God, Thy wisdom knows The balsam that releases. Thou Sufferer of Calvary, Let these afflicted hide in Thee, And in Thy wounds find healing. Amen.

Awake! the Watchman Crieth

Author: Frans Mikael Franzen; Augustus Nelson Hymnal: HOoS1926 #395 (1926) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Lyrics: 1 Awake! the watchman crieth, On Zion's ramparts still! The Lord His grace supplieth, Repent, and heed His will. Life's journey fast is nearing The ever-lasting shore; The hour of death appearing, When time shall be no more. 2 Too late the sinners waken Where morn hath ceased to dawn; Where grace that was forsaken Is evermore withdrawn; Where's heard no praying sentence God's mercy to implore; For there is no repentance, When time shall be no more. 3 O souls who spurn salvation! See this eternity Of darkness, desolation, And constant agony. The torments none can banish, Nor aught can peace restore; And hope itself shall vanish, When time shall be no more! 4 Awake! the voice still soundeth; 'Tis now the accepted hour; The grace of God aboundeth To save from sin's dread power. Make haste, implore Christ's favor, Thy sins confess, and bow Before Thy Lord and Saviour; The accepted time is now. Amen.

Behold a Stranger at the Door

Author: Joseph Grigg Hymnal: HOoS1926 #396 (1926) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Behold a stranger at the door! Lyrics: 1 Behold a stranger at the door! He gently knocks, has knocked before, Has waited long--is waiting still: You treat no other friend so ill. 2 O lovely attitude, He stands With melting heart and laden hands! O matchless kindness! and He shows This matchless kindness to His foes. 3 But will He prove a friend indeed? He will; the very friend you need; The Friend of sinners--yes, 'tis He, With garments dyed on Calvary. 4 Admit Him, lest His anger burn, And He, departing, ne'er return; Admit Him, or the hour's at hand You'll at His door rejected stand.

Take to heart this word and live: "Jesus sinners doth receive." 3 When a helpless lamb doth stray, After it, the Shepherd, pressing Through each dark and dangerous way, Brings it back, His own possessing. Jesus, seeks Thee, O believe: "Jesus sinners doth receive." 4 Sorrowing, Lord, I yield to Thee, Weary of sin's heavy burden; Let Thy grace my portion be, All I crave for is Thy pardon, This, Thy promise, I believe: "Jesus sinners doth receive."

Trust not the world; it gives no rest; I bring relief to hearts oppressed; O weary winner! come, O come! 4 Come, leave thy burden at the cross, Count all thy gains but worthless dross: My grace repays all earthly loss; O needy sinner! come, O come! 5 Come, hither bring thy boding fears, Thy aching heart, thy bursting tears; ’Tis mercy’s voice salutes thine ears; O trembling sinner! come, O come! 6 "The Spirit and the bride say, Come!"

Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy

Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: HOoS1926 #399 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Come, ye sinners, poor and needy, Weak and wounded, sick and sore, Jesus ready stands to save you, Full of pity, love, and pow'r. He is able, He is able, He is willing: doubt no more. He is able, He is able, He is willing: doubt no more. 2 Come, ye thirsty, come, and welcome, God’s free bounty glorify; True belief, and true repentance, Every grace that brings us nigh. Without money, Without money, Come to Jesus Christ, and buy. Without money, Without money, Come to Jesus Christ, and buy. 3 Let not conscience make you linger, Nor of fitness fondly dream; All the fitness He requireth Is to feel your need of Him; This He gives you; This He gives you; 'Tis His Spirit's rising beam. This He gives you; This He gives you; 'Tis His Spirit's rising beam. 4 Agonizing in the garden, Lo! your Maker prostrate lies; On the blood-stained tree behold Him; Hear Him cry, before He dies. "It is finished! It is finished!" Sinner, will this not suffice? "It is finished! It is finished!" Sinner, will this not suffice? 5 Lo! the incarnate God, ascended, Pleads the merit of His blood: Venture to Him, venture wholly, Let no other trust intrude; None but Jesus, None but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. None but Jesus, None but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. Amen. Topics: Way of Salvation Invitation to Repentance Languages: English Tune Title: ST. ANSGAR

Shun, My Heart, the Thought Forever

Author: Paul Gerhardt Hymnal: HOoS1926 #400 (1926) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Shun, my heart, the thought forever As thou hast been cast away, Rest upon God's Word and favor, Never cease to watch and pray. E'en though thou unrighteous art, True and faithful is God's heart; Hast thou death deserved forever? God's appeased, despond thou never! 2 Thou art, as is ev'ry other, Tainted with the bane of sin That the serpent through our father Adam, by the fall, brought in. But if thou God's voice dost hear, With a contrite heart draw near Unto God, He will receive thee, All thy sins He will forgive thee. 3 Thou wilt find in Him a Father Who is patient, kind, and true, He doth love thee as no brother And no other friend can do. E'en our smallest cares He knows, He is touched by all our woes; Well our inmost prayers He heareth, And our saddened hearts He cheerest. 4 Hear His word "As I am living, I the death on none would see, But that every sinner, giving Up his heart would turn to Me. How my heart with rapture burns When a prodigal returns! My own child I love to call him, And no evil shall befall him." 5 Never shepherd's heart so yearneth For the sheep that go astray As God's loving bosom burneth For His erring child alway. How He thirsts, and longs, and yearns For the soul that from Him turns! Couldst thou know His love so tender, Thou wouldst praise unto Him render. 6 Of such wondrous love and favor Open wide the door to me, And Thy goodness, precious Saviour, Let me ever taste and see. Love me, Lord, and let me be Ever nearer drawn to Thee; Let Thy Spirit lead and guide me, In Thy loving bosom hide me. Amen.
