How can a sinner know

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #356 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 How can a sinner know His sin on earth forgiv'n? How can my gracious Saviour show My name inscrib'd in heav'n! 2 What we have felt and seen With confidence we tell; And publish to the sons of men The signs infallible. 3 We who in Christ believe That he for us hath died, We all his unknown peace receive, And feel his blood applied! 4 Exults our rising soul, Deliver'd of her load, And swells unutterably full Of glory and of God. 5 His love surpasses far The love of all beneath, We find within our hearts, and dare The pointless darts of death. 6 Stronger than death or hell The sacred pow'r we prove; And, conqu'rors of the world we dwell In heav'n who dwell in love. Scripture: 1 John 1:3

I hear a voice that comes from far

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #359 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 I hear a voice that comes from far; From Calvary it sounds abroad; It soothes my soul, and calms my fear; It speaks of pardon bought with blood. 2 And is it true, that many fly The sound that bids my soul rejoice; And rather choose in sin to die, Than turn an ear to mercy’s voice! 3 Alas for those!--the day is near, When mercy will be heard no more; Then will they ask in vain to hear The voice they would not hear before. 4 With such, I own, I once appear'd, But now I know how great their loss; For sweeter sounds were never heard Than mercy utters from the cross.

Each morning shall thy mercies shew, Each night thy love record. 2 Thy goodness, like the sun, Dawn'd on our early days, Err infant reason had begun To form our lips to praise. 3 Each object we beheld Gave pleasure to our eyes; And nature all our senses held In bands of sweet surprise. 4 But pleasures more refin'd Awaited that blest day, When light arose upon our mind To chase our sins away. 5 How various and how new Are thy compassions, Lord! Eternity thy truth shall shew, And all thy love record.

O happy soul that lives on high!

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #369 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 O happy soul that lives on high! While men lie grov'ling here, His hopes are fix'd above the sky, And faith forbids his fear. 2 His conscience knows no secret stings; While grace and joy combine To form a life, whose holy springs Are hidden and divine. 3 He waits in secret on his God, His God in secret sees, Let earth be all in arms abroad, He dwells in heav'nly peace. 4 His pleasures rise from things unseen, Beyond this world and time, Where neither eyes nor ears have been, Nor thoughts of mortals climb. 5 He looks to heav'n's eternal hill, To meet that glorious day, When Christ his promise shall fulfil And call his soul away.

When gloomy thoughts and fears

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #370 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 When gloomy thoughts and fears The trembling heart invade, And all the face of nature wears A universal shade: 2 Religion can assuage The tempest of the soul; And ev'ry fear shall lose its rage At her divine control. 3 Through life's bewilder'd way, Her hand unerring leads; And o'er the path her heav'nly ray A cheering lustre sheds. 4 When reason, tir'd and blind, Sinks helpless and afraid; Thou blest supporter of the mind, How pow'rful is thine aid! 5 O let me feel thy pow'r, And find thy sweet relief, To brighten ev'ry gloomy hour, And soften ev'ry grief.
