Confession and Repentance
Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #184 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Holy Spirit Repentance First Line: O Lord, my God, in mercy turn Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my God, in mercy turn,
In mercy hear a sinner mourn!
To thee I call, to thee I cry,
O leave me, leave me not to die!
2 O pleasures past, what are you now
But thorns about my bleeding brow?
Spectres that hover round my brain,
And aggravate and mock my pain.
3 For pleasure I have given my soul;
Now justice, let thy thunders roll!
Now vengeance smile--and with a blow,
Lay the rebellious ingrate low.
4 Yet Jesus, Jesus! there I'll cling,
I'll crowd beneath his sheltering wing;
I'll clasp the cross, and holding there,
E'en me, oh bliss!--his wrath may spare Languages: English

To him that thirsts for righteousness,
To Christ, the fountain, come!

Declares: "I quickly come:"

Jesus, my Savior, come! Languages: English

Profession of Sincerity, Repentance and Obedience
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #218a (1740) Topics: Profession of Sincerity and Repentance First Line: Thou art my Portion, O my GOD Lyrics: 1 Thou art my Portion, O my GOD;
Soon as I know thy Way,
My Heart makes Haste t'obey thy word,
And suffers no Delay.
2 I choose the Path of Heav'nly Truth,
And glory in my Choice;
Not all the Riches of the earth
Could make me so rejoice.
3 The Testimonies of thy Grace
I set before my Eyes;
Thence I derive my daily Strength,
And there my comfort lies.
4 If once I wander from thy Path,
I think upon my Ways,
Then turn my feet to thy commands,
And trust thy pard'ning Grace.
5 Now I am thine, for ever thine,
O save thy Servant, Lord;
Thou art my Shield, my Hiding-place;
My Hope is in thy Word.
6 Thou hast inclin'd this Heart of mine
Thy Statutes to fulfil;
And thus till mortal Life shall end,
Would I perform thy Will. Scripture: Psalm 119:57 Languages: English

Faith and Repentance
Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #237a (1844) Meter: 8.7 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Repentance First Line: Let us ask the important question Lyrics: 1 Let us ask the important question,
(Brethren, be not too secure),
What it is to be a Christian,
How we may our hearts assure.
Vain is all our best devotion,
If on false foundations built;
True religion’s more than notion;
Something must be known and felt.
2 [’Tis to trust our Well-belovèd
In his blood has washed us clean;
’Tis to hope our guilt’s removèd,
Though we feel it rise within;
To believe that all is finished,
Though so much remains to endure;
Find the dangers undiminished,
Yet to hold deliverance sure.]
3 [’Tis to credit contradictions;
Talk with him one never sees;
Cry and groan beneath afflictions,
Yet to dread the thoughts of ease.
’Tis to feel the fight against us,
Yet the victory hope to gain;
To believe that Christ has cleansed us,
Though the leprosy remain.]
4 [’Tis to hear the Holy Spirit
Prompting us to secret prayer;
To rejoice in Jesus’ merit,
Yet continual sorrow bear;
To receive a full remission
Of our sins for evermore,
Yet to sigh with sore contrition,
Begging mercy every hour.]
5 To be steadfast in believing,
Yet to tremble, fear and quake;
Every moment be receiving
Strength, and yet be always weak;
To be fighting, fleeing, turning;
Ever sinking, yet to swim;
To converse with Jesus, mourning
For ourselves or else for him. Languages: English

Repentance
Author: Fawcett Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #238 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fruits of the Spirit Repentance First Line: With melting heart, and weeping eyes Lyrics: 1 With melting heart and weeping eyes,
My guilty soul for mercy cries;
What shall I do, or whither flee,
To escape the vengeance due to me?
2 Till late, I saw no danger nigh;
I lived at ease, nor feared to die;
Wrapped up in self-conceit and pride,
“I shall have peace at last,” I cried.
3 But when, great God, thy light divine
Had shone on this dark soul of mine,
Then I beheld, with trembling awe,
The terrors of thy holy law.
4 How dreadful now my guilt appears,
In childhood, youth, and growing years;
Before thy pure discerning eye,
Lord, what a filthy wretch am I!
5 Should vengeance still my soul pursue,
Death and destruction are my due;
Yet mercy can my guilt forgive,
And bid a dying sinner live.
6 Does not thy sacred word proclaim
Salvation free in Jesus’ name?
To him I look, and humbly cry,
“O save a wretch condemned to die!” Languages: English

Backsliding and Repentance
Ye sons of Adam, vain and young
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #593 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Confession of sin, repentance, and pardon; Pardon and repentance prayed for; Prayer for repentance and pardon, etc; Repentance and prayer for pardon and strength; Strength repentance, and pardon prayed for Lyrics:
Ye sons of Adam, vain and young,
Indulge your eyes, indulge your tongue,
Taste the delights your souls desire,
And give a loose to all your fire;
Pursue the pleasures you design,
And cheer your hearts with songs and wine;
Enjoy the day of mirth, but know
There is a day of judgment too.
God from on high beholds your thoughts,
His book records your secret faults;
The works of darkness you have done
Must all appear before the sun.
The vengeance to your follies due
Should strike your hearts with terror through:
How will you stand before his face,
Or answer for his injured grace?
Almighty God! turn off their eyes
From these alluring vanities;
And let the thunder of thy word
Awake their souls to fear the Lord.
Scripture: Ecclesiastes 11:9 Languages: English
Ye sons of Adam, vain and young
