A Clean Heart

Author: Rev. Walter C. Smith Hymnal: Christ in Song #19 (1908) Topics: Special Selections Solos First Line: One thing I of the Lord desire Refrain First Line: So wash me Thou, without, within Lyrics: 1 One thing I of the Lord desire, For all my paths have miry been, Be it by water or by fire, O make me clean, O make me clean. Refrain: So wash me thou, without, within, Or purge with fire, If that must be, No matter how, if only sin die out in me, die out in me. 2 If clearer vision thou impart, Grateful and glad my soul shall be; But yet to have a purer heart, Is more to me, Is more to me. [Refrain] 3 Yea, only as this heart is clean May larger vision yet be mine, For mirrored in Thy life are seen The things divine, The things divine. [Refrain] 4 I watch to shun the miry way, And stanch the springs of guilty thought, But watch and struggle as I may, Pure I am not, Pure I am not.

Let him in; Now, O now make him your choice, Let him in. He is standing at the door, Joy to you he will restore, And his name you will adore, Let him in. 4 Now admit the heav'nly guest, Let him in: He will make for you a feast, Let him in; He will speak your sins forgiv'n, And when earth ties all are riv'n, He will take your home to heav'n, Let him in.

Repeating Calvary

Author: F. E. B. Hymnal: Christ in Song #23 (1908) Topics: Special Selections Choir or Quartet First Line: I cannot drive the nails again Lyrics: 1 I cannot drive the nails again, I cannot thrust the spear of pain, I cannot bear to see His grief and agony, Repeating Calvary By tho't of sin, Repeating Calvary By tho't of sin. 2 'Twas sin alone that nailed Him there, 'Twas love alone that made Him bear; Sin's wage of death, our due, Upon himself He drew That we may live anew, His glory share, That we may live anew, His glory share. 3 His power frees from fetters strong, All who confess and turn from wrong: He could have shunned the pain. Sin's pow'r would yet remain: Now law and pardon reign, The angels' song, Now law and pardon reign, The angels' song. 4 My soul abhors His murd'rer sin, No longer shall He dwell within; But Christ, the living law, Victor in holy war, Enthroned forevermore, Gives pow'r to win, Enthroned forevermore, Gives pow'r to win. Languages: English Tune Title: [I cannot drive the nails again]

Chorus: My name in mother's pray'r. My name in mother's pray'r. That just one word, my name I heard. I heard my name in mother's pray'r. 2 I thought but little of it then, tho' rev'rence touch'd my heart, To her whose love sought from above for me the better part; But when life's sterner battles came with many a subtle snare, Oft that one word, in thought I heard my name in mother's pray'r. [Chorus] 3 I wandered on, and heeded not God's oft repeated call To turn from sin, to live for Him, and trust to Him my all; But when at last, convinced of sin, I sank in deep despair, My hope awoke, when mem'ry spoke my name in mother's pray'r. [Chorus] 4 That pleading heart, that soul so tried, has gone into her rest, But still with me for aye shall be the mem'ry of her trust, And when I cross the Jordan's tide, and meet her over there, We'll praise the Lord, who bless'd that word, my name in mother's pray'r. [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: ['Twas in the days of careless youth, when life was fair and bright]
