I heard the voice of Jesus say
Author: Horatius Bonar, 1808 - 89 Appears in 1,226 hymnals Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
'Come unto me and rest;
Lay down, thou weary one, lay down
Thy head upon my breast.'
I came to Jesus as I was,
Weary, and worn, and sad;
I found in him a resting place,
And he has made me glad.
2 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
'Behold, I freely give
The living water, thirsty one,
Stoop down, and drink, and live.'
I came to Jesus and I drank
Of that life-giving stream;
My thirst was quenched, my soul revived,
And now I live in him.
3 I heard the voice of Jesus say,
'I am this dark world's light;
Look unto me, thy morn shall rise,
And all thy day be bright.'
I looked to Jesus, and I found
In him my star, my sun;
And in that light of life I'll walk
Till traveling days are done. Used With Tune: THIRD MODE MELODY
I heard the voice of Jesus say
Just as I am, without one plea
Author: Charlotte Elliott, 1789 - 1871 Appears in 2,115 hymnals Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 Just as I am, without one plea,
But that thy Blood was shed for me,
And that thou bidd'st me come to thee,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
2 Just as I am, and waiting not
To rid my soul of one dark blot,
To thee, whose Blood can cleanse each spot,
O Lamb of God, I come, I come.
3 Just as I am, though tossed about
With many a conflict, many a doubt,
Fightings and fears within, without,
O Lamb of God, I come.
4 Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind;
Sight, riches, healing of the mind,
Yea, all I need, in thee to find,
O Lamb of God, I come.
5 Just as I am, thou wilt receive,
Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;
Because thy promise I believe,
O Lamb of God, I come.
6 Just as I am; thy love unknown
Has broken every barrier down.
Now to be thine, yea, thine alone,
O Lamb of God, I come. Used With Tune: WOODWORTH
Just as I am, without one plea
There's a wideness in God's mercy
Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814 - 63 Appears in 900 hymnals Topics: The Life in Christ Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy,
Like the wideness of the sea;
There's a kindness in his justice,
Which is more than liberty.
There is no place where earth's sorrows
Are more felt than up in heaven;
There is no p'ace where earth's failings
Have such kindly judgment given.
2 There is welcome for the sinner,
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Saviour;
There is healing in his Blood,
There is grace enough for thousands
Of new worlds as great as this;
There is room for fresh creations
In that upper home of bliss.
3 For the love of God is broader
Than the measures of man's mind,
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
There is plentiful redemption
In the Blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head.
4 'Tis not all we owe to Jesus;
It is something more than all;
Greater good because of evil,
Larger mercy through the fall.
If our love were but more simple,
We should take Him at his word;
And our lives would be all sunshine
In the sweetness of our Lord. Used With Tune: ARMSTRONG

Softly and tenderly
The Backslider restored; or, Repentance and Faith in the Blood of Christ
Appears in 342 hymnals Topics: Repentance and Faith in the Blood of Chirst First Line: O Thou that hear'st when Sinners cry Lyrics: 1 O Thou that hear'st when Sinners cry,
Tho' all my Crimes before Thee lie,
Behold them not with angry Look,
But blot their Mem'ry from thy Book.
2 Create my Nature pure within,
And form my Soul averse to Sin:
Let thy good Spirit ne'er depart,
Nor hide thy Presence from my Heart.
3 I cannot live without thy Light,
Cast out and banished from thy Sight:
Thine holy Joys my GOD restore,
And guard me that I fall no more.
4 Though I have griev'd thy Spirit, Lord,
Thy Help and Comfort still afford;
And let a Wretch come near thy Throne,
To plead the Merits of thy Son.
5 A broken Heart, my GOD, my King,
Is all the Sacrifice I bring;
The God of Grace will ne'er despise
A broken Heart for Sacrifice.
6 My Soul lies humbled in the Dust,
And owns thy dreadful Sentence just;
Look down, O Lord, with pitying Eye,
And save the Soul condemn'd to die.
7 Then will I teach the World thy Ways;
Sinners shall learn thy sov'reign Grace;
I'll lead them to my Saviour's Blood,
And they shall praise a pard'ning God.
8 O may thy Love inspire my Tongue!
Salvation shall be all my Song;
And all my Pow'rs shall join to bless
The Lord, my Strength and Righteousness. Scripture: Psalm 51

And purge away my sin;
From earth-born passions set me free
And make me pure within.
2 Lord Jesus, think on me,
With care and woe opprest;
Let me thy loving servant be
And taste thy promised rest.
3 Lord Jesus, think on me
Amid the battle's strife;
In all my pain and misery
Be thou my health and life.
4 Lord Jesus, think on me,
Nor let me go astray;
Through darkness and perplexity
Point out the heavenly way.
5 Lord Jesus, think on me
That, when the flood is past,
I may the eternal brightness see,
And share thy joy at last.
6 Lord Jesus, think on me,
That I may sing above
To Father, Spirit, and to thee,
The strains of praise and love.
Amen.

Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy
Author: Joseph Hart Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 1,462 hymnals Topics: Repentance and Faith 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.
2 Come, ye thirsty, come, and welcome,
God's free bounty glorify;
true belief and true repentance,
every grace that brings you nigh.
3 Let not conscience make you linger,
nor of fitness fondly dream;
all the fitness He requireth
is to feel your need of Him.
4 Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
lost and ruined by the fall;
if you tarry till you're better,
you will never come at all.
5 Lo! th'incarnate God, ascended,
pleads the merit of His blood;
venture on Him, venture wholly;
let no other trust intrude. Used With Tune: RESTORATION
Come, Ye Sinners, Poor and Needy
