Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Laudes Domini #223 (1890) Topics: Self-righteousness; Self-righteousness First Line: Not all the blood of beasts Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace, Or wash away the stain. 2 But Christ the heavenly Lamb Takes all our sins away, A sacrifice of nobler name And richer blood than they. 3 My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of thine, While like a penitent I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burdens thou didst bear, When hanging on the cursed tree, And hopes her guilt was there. 5 Believing, we rejoice To see the curse remove; We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice, And sing his dying love.

Behold how Sinners disagree

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.CXXXI (1766) Topics: Righteousness and Self-Righteousness Lyrics: 1 Behold how Sinners disagree, The Publican and Pharisee! One doth his Righteousness proclaim, The other owns his Guilt and Shame. 2 This Man at humble Distance stands, And cries for Grace with lifted Hands; That boldly rises near the Throne, And talks of Duties he has done. 3 The Lord their diff'rent Language knows, And diff'rent Answers he bestows; The humble Soul with Grace he crowns, Whilst on the Proud his Anger frowns. 4 Dear Father let me never be Join'd with the boasting Pharisee; I have no Merits of my own But plead the Suff'rings of thy Son.

[3 My dear Almighty and my God, How little art thou known By all the Judgments of thy Rod, And blessings of thy Throne.] 4 How cold and feeble is my Love; How negligent my Fear! How low my Hope of Joys above! How few Affections there! 5 Great God, thy sov'reign Pow'r impart, To give thy Word Success; Write thy Salvation in my Heart, And make me learn thy Grace. [6 Shew my forgetful Feet the Way That leads to Joys on high; There Knowledge grows without Decay And Love shall never die.] Languages: English
