The Conversion of Zacheus
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #LXXVIII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Conversion of Zaccheus First Line: Once as the Savior pass'd along Lyrics: 1 Once as the Savior pass'd along,
Zaccheus fain the lord would see:
Of stature small, to 'scape the throng,
he ran before, and climb'd a tree.
2 As the omniscient Lord drew nigh,
Upward he look'd, and saw him there;
"Zaccheus, hasten down, for I
"Must be thy guest to-day, prepare,
3 "To-day." the pardoning Savior cries,
"Salvation to thy house is come,
"On wings of sov'reign love it flies;
"Go tell the blissful news at home."
4 Lord, look on souls that gaze around,
To every listening sinner speak;
Now may thine ancient love abound,
From every seat a captive take.
5 Sinners, make haste our God to meet;
Come to the feast his love prepares;
The lost are sought and sav'd, how sweet?
And not the righteous, Christ declares,
6 Say, what are ye come out to view:
Jesus who once for sinners died?
O hear the Savior's voice to you,
"Cast sinful righteous self aside."
7 Lord, wilt thou stoop to be my guest?
Dost thou invite me to my home?
Welcome, dear Savior, to my breast,
To-day let thy salvation come.

And satan lose his prey.

Thine be the praises too,
Let every heart and every tongue
Give thee the glory due.

The lost Sheep found; or, Joy in Heaven on the Conversion of a Sinner
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #LXXIX (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Conversion of a sinner First Line: When some kind shepherd from his fold Lyrics: 1 When some kind shepherd from his fold,
Has lost a straying sheep,
Through vales, o'er hills, he anxious roves,
And climbs the mountain's steep.
2 But O the joy! the transport sweet!
When he the wand'rer finds;
Up in his arms he takes his charge,
And to his shoulder binds.
3 Homeward he hastes to tell his joys,
And make his bliss complete:
The neighbours hear the news, and all
The joyful shepherd greet.
4 Yet how much greater is the joy
When but one sinner turns;
When the poor wretch with broken heart,
His sins and errors mourns.
5 Pleas'd with the news, the saints below,
In songs their tongues employ;
Beyond the skies, the tidings go,
And Heaven is fill'd with joy.
6 Well-pleas'd the Father sees and hears
The conscious sinner weep;
Jesus receives him in his arms,
And owns him for his sheep.
7 Nor angels can their joys contain,
But kindle with new fire:
"A wandering sheep's return'd," they sing,
And strike the sounding lyre. Scripture: Luke 15:3-4 Languages: English
The lost Sheep found; or, Joy in Heaven on the Conversion of a Sinner
Praise for Conversion
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCXLIV (1791) Topics: Conversion First Line: Ye Souls that fear the Lord Lyrics: 1 Ye Souls that fear the Lord,
Come, listen while I tell,
How narrowly my Feet escap'd
The Snares of Death and Hell.
2 The shatt'ring Joys of Sense
Assail'd my foolish Heart,
While Satan, with malicious Skill,
Guided the pois'nous Dart.
3 I fell beneath the Stroke,
But fell to rise again;
My Anguish rous'd me into Life,
And Pleasure sprung from Pain.
4 Darkness, and Shame, and Grief
Oppress'd my gloomy Mind;
I look'd around me for Relief,
But no Relief could find.
5 At Length to God I cry'd;
He heard my plaintive Sigh,
He heard, and instantly he sent
Salvation from on High.
6 My drooping Head he rais'd,
My bleeding Wounds he heal'd,
Pardon'd my Sins, and with a Smile
The gracious Pardon seal'd.
7 O! may I ne'er forget
The Mercy of my GOD;
Nor ever want a Tongue to spread
His loudest Praise abroad.

The beauties of his face?
Why to my soul did he convey
The blessings of his grace?
2 O how could he so sweetly smile
On such a wretch as I;
I who his name did once revile,
And his dear truth deny?
3 But ’twas because he loved my soul,
Because he died for me,
Because that nothing could control
His great, his firm decree.
4 Lord, for thy manifested grace
I’ll raise a cheerful song,
Till I shall see thy brighter face
’Midst the celestial throng. Languages: English

In bands of sweet surprise.

Awaited that blest day,
When light arose upon our mind
To chase our sins away.

Eternity thy truth shall shew,
And all thy love record. Languages: English
