The Lawful Use of the Law

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #44 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Law and the Gospel First Line: Here, Lord, my soul convicted stands Lyrics: 1 Here, Lord, my soul convicted stands Of breaking all thy ten commands; And on me justly might’st thou pour Thy wrath in one eternal shower. 2 But, thanks to God, its loud alarms Have warned me of approaching harms; And now, O Lord, my wants I see; Lost and undone, I come to thee. 3 I see my fig-leaf righteousness Can ne’er thy broken law redress; Yet in thy gospel plan I see, There’s hope of pardon e’en for me. 4 Here I behold thy wonders, Lord, How Christ has to thy law restored Those honours, on the atoning day, Which guilty sinners took away. 5 Amazing wisdom, power, and love, Displayed to rebels from above! Do thou, O Lord, my faith increase, To love and trust thy plan of grace. Languages: English

Salvation by Christ alone

Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #45 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Law and the Gospel First Line: How can ye hope, deluded souls Lyrics: 1 How can ye hope, deluded souls, To see what none e’er saw, Salvation by the works obtained Of Sinai’s fiery law? 2 [There ye may toil, and weep, and fast, And vex your heart with pain; And, when you’ve ended, find at last That all your toil was vain.] 3 That law but makes your guilt abound; Sad help! and (what is worst) All souls that under that are found, By God himself are cursed. 4 [This curse pertains to those who break One precept, e’er so small; And where’s the man, in thought or deed, That has not broken all?] 5 Fly, then, awakened sinners, fly; Your case admits no stay; The fountain’s opened now for sin; Come, wash your guilt away. 6 See how from Jesus’ wounded side The water flows and blood! If you but touch that purple tide, You then have peace with God. 7 Only by faith in Jesus’ wounds The sinner finds release; No other sacrifice for sin Will God accept but this. Languages: English

Conviction of Sin by the Law

Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #46 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Law and the Gospel First Line: Lord, how secure my conscience was Lyrics: 1 Lord, how secure my conscience was, And felt no inward dread! I was alive without thy law, And thought my sins were dead. 2 My hopes of heaven were firm and bright, But since the precept came With a convincing power and light, I find how vile I am. 3 [My guilt appeared but small before, Till terribly I saw How perfect, holy, just, and pure Was thy eternal law! 4 Then felt my soul the heavy load; My sins revived again; I had provoked a dreadful God, And all my hopes were slain.] 5 Thy gracious throne I bow beneath; Lord, thou alone canst save; O break the yoke of sin and death, And thus redeem the slave.

Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #47 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Law and the Gospel First Line: Curs'd be the man, for ever curs'd Lyrics: 1 [Cursed be the man, for ever cursed, That does one wilful sin commit; Death and damnation for the first, Without relief and infinite. 2 Thus Sinai roars, and round the earth Thunder, and fire, and vengeance flings; But Jesus, thy dear gasping breath And Calvary, say gentler things: 3 “Pardon and grace, and boundless love, Streaming along a Saviour’s blood; And life, and joy, and crowns above, Obtained by a dear bleeding God.” 4 Hark! how he prays, (the charming sound Dwells on his dying lips,) “Forgive!” And every groan and gaping wound Cries, “Father, let the rebels live!”] 5 Go, ye that rest upon the law, And toil and seek salvation there, Look to the flame that Moses saw, And shrink, and tremble, and despair. 6 But I’ll retire beneath the cross; Saviour, at thy dear feet I’ll lie! And the keen sword that justice draws, Flaming and red, shall pass me by. Languages: English

The Law and Gospel

Author: Berridge Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #49 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: The Law and the Gospel First Line: The law demands a weighty debt Lyrics: 1 The law demands a weighty debt, And not a single mite will bate; But gospel sings of Jesus’ blood, And says it made the payment good. 2 The law provokes men oft to ill, And churlish hearts makes harder still; But gospel acts a kinder part, And melts a most obdurate heart. 3 “Run, run, and work,” the law commands, Yet finds me neither feet nor hands; But sweeter news the gospel brings; It bids me fly, and lends me wings. 4 [Such needful wings, O Lord, impart, To brace my feet and brace my heart; Good wings of faith and wings of love Will make a cripple sprightly move.] 5 With these a lumpish soul may fly, And soar aloft, and reach the sky; Nor faint nor falter in the race, But cheerly work, and sing of grace.
