Lord, we confess our numerous faults

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Book of Worship with Hymns and Tunes #417 (1899) Topics: Confession of Sin 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 through the purchase of His death Who hung upon the tree, The Spirit is sent down to breathe On such dry bones as we. 5 Raised from the dead, we live anew; And, justified by grace, We shall appear in glory, too, And see our Father's face. Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: ROMBERG

Gellert Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #102 (1913) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Confession of Sin Lyrics: 1 Oppressed by sin, O Lord, to Thee I come in my affliction: O, full of pity, look on me, Impart Thy benediction. My sins are great, where shall I fell? The blood of Jesus speaks for me; For all our sins He carried. 2 Repentant at Thy feet I fall, To Thy cross humbly clinging, O Jesus, hear me when I call, My wants before Thee bringing. My trust is in Thy grace and power; For all was finished in that hour, When Thou didst make atonement. 3 When I approach Thine altar, Lord, May I this comfort cherish, That on the cross Thy blood was poured For me, lest I should perish. Thou didst for me God's law fulfill, That holy joy my heart might thrill When on Thy love I'm feasting. 4 Be Thou my shield 'gainst Satan's power, Whene'er he would assail me; The victor's crown, when come death's hour, O let it never fail me! Lord Jesus,Thou who savedst me, My life I would devote to Thee, To praise Thy name forever. Tune Title: [Oppressed by sin, O Lord to Thee]

I confess your judgment just; speechless, I your mercy trust. Let my contrite heart rejoice and in gladness hear your voice. 3 Gracious God, my heart renew, make my spirit right and true. Do not cast me from your sight nor remove your Spirit's light. Your salvation's joy restore, make me steadfast evermore. 4 Contrite spirit, pleading cries, you, O God, will not despise. Sinful ways I will reprove, and my tongue shall sing your love. Let my righteous sacrifice then delight your holy eyes. Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English Tune Title: REDHEAD 76
