Great God of Earth and Heaven
Author: Shirley Erena Murray Hymnal: The New Century Hymnal #579 (1995) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Forgiveness of Sin Lyrics: 1 Great God of earth and heaven
whose Spirit is our breath,
at Christmastime born human,
at Easter shared our death:
All-generous, all-loving,
in whom all beauty thrives -
forgive your sons and daughters
the comfort of our lives!
2 While refugees go homeless
and die before they live,
while children have no future -
our apathy forgive!
Where hope fades to depression,
despair erodes the soul,
restore in us a passion
to make the broken whole.
3 Where hunger kills your people,
injustice cries aloud,
while weapons grow more lethal
and only power stands proud -
God of our flesh and fiber,
whose mercy does not cease,
implant your mind within us,
create a world for peace!

How Blest is He Whose Trespass
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #61 (1934) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Forgiveness of Sin Lyrics: 1 How blest is he whose trespass
Has freely been forgiven,
Whose sin is wholly covered
Before the sight of heaven.
Blest he to whom Jehovah
Will not impute his sin,
Who has a guileless spirit,
Whose heart is true within.
2 While I kept guilty silence,
My strength was spent with grief,
Thy hand was heavy on me,
My soul found no relief;
But when I owned my trespass,
My sin hid not from Thee,
When I confessed transgression,
Then Thou forgavest me.
3 So let the godly seek Thee
In times when Thou art near;
No whelming floods shall reach them,
Nor cause their hearts to fear.
In Thee, O Lord, I hide me,
Thou savest me from ill,
And songs of Thy salvation
My heart with rapture thrill.
4 I graciously will teach thee
The way that thou shalt go,
And with My eye upon thee
My counsel make thee know.
But be ye not unruly,
Or slow to understand,
Be not perverse, but willing
To heed My wise command.
5 The sorrows of the wicked
In number shall abound,
But those that trust Jehovah,
His mercy shall surround.
Then in the Lord be joyful,
In song lift up your voice;
Be glad in God, ye righteous,
Rejoice, ye saints, rejoice. Scripture: Psalm 32 Languages: English Tune Title: RUTHERFORD
How Blest is He Whose Trespass
God, be merciful to me
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #415 (1961) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Forgiveness of Sins Lyrics: 1 God, be merciful to me,
On thy grace I rest my plea;
Plenteous in compassion thou,
Blot out my transgressions now;
Wash me, make me pure within,
Cleanse, O cleanse me from my sin.
2 My transgressions I confess,
Grief and guilt my soul oppress;
I have sinned against thy grace
And provoked thee to thy face;
I confess thy judgment just,
Speechless, I thy mercy trust.
3 I am evil, born in sin;
Thou desirest truth within.
Thou alone my Saviour art,
Teach thy wisdom to my heart;
Make me pure, thy grace bestow,
Wash me whiter than the snow.
4 Broken, humbled to the dust
By thy wrath and judgment just,
Let my contrite heart rejoice
And in gladness hear thy voice;
From my sins O hide thy face,
Blot them out in boundless grace.
5 Gracious God, my heart renew,
Make my spirit right and true;
Cast me not away from thee,
Let thy Spirit dwell in me;
Thy salvation's joy impart,
Stedfast make my willing heart.
6 Sinners then shall learn from me
And return, O God, to thee;
Saviour, all my guilt remove,
And my tongue shall sing thy love;
Touch my silent lips, O Lord,
And my mouth shall praise accord.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 51:1-15 Languages: English Tune Title: AJALON (REDHEAD NO. 76)
God, be merciful to me
Weary of earth, and laden with my sin
Author: Samuel J. Stone Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #467 (1961) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Christian Life The Forgivness of Sins Lyrics: 1 Weary of earth, and laden with my sin,
I look at heav'n and long to enter in;
But there no evil thing may find a home;
And yet I hear a voice that bids me "Come."
2 So vile I am, how dare I hope to stand
In the pure glory of that holy land?
Before the whiteness of that throne appear?
Yet there are hands stretched out to draw me near.
3 The while I fain would tread the heav'nly way,
Evil is ever with me day by day;
Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall,
"Repent, confess, thou shalt be loosed from all."
4 It is the voice of Jesus that I hear;
His are the hands stretched out to draw me near,
And his the blood that can for all atone
And set me faultless there before the throne.
5 O great Absolver, grant my soul may wear
The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer,
That in the Father's courts my glorious dress
May be the garment of thy righteousness.
6 Yea, thou wilt answer for me, righteous Lord;
Thine all the merits, mine the great reward;
Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown;
Mine the life won, and thine the life laid down.
Amen. Scripture: Matthew 11:28 Languages: English Tune Title: LANGRAN

Author: Anonymous Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #704 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.6 Topics: Forgiveness of Sins Lyrics: 1 Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
thou wilt keep him in perfect peace,
whose mind is stayed on thee.
2 Marvel not that I say unto you,
marvel not that I say unto you,
marvel not that I say unto you,
"You must be born again."
3 Tho' your sins as scarlet be,
tho' your sins as scarlet be,

if the Son shall make you free,
you shall be free indeed.

they that wait upon the Lord,
they that wait upon the Lord,

Thou Wilt Keep Him in Perfect Peace
From depths of woe I raise to thee
Author: Martin Luther Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #461 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Topics: Christian Life The Forgivness of Sins Lyrics: 1 From depths of woe I raise to thee
The voice of lamentation;
Lord, turn a gracious ear to me
And hear my supplication:
If thou iniquities dost mark,
Our secret sins and misdeeds dark,
O who shall stand before thee?
2 To wash away the crimson stain,
Grace, grace alone availeth;
Our works, alas! are all in vain;
In much the best life faileth:
No man can glory in thy sight,
All must alike confess thy might,
And live alone by mercy.
3 Therefore my trust is in the Lord,
And not in mine own merit;
On him my soul shall rest, his Word
Upholds my fainting spirit:
His promised mercy is my fort,
My comfort and my sweet support;
I wait for it with patience.
4 What though I wait the livelong night,
And till the dawn appeareth,
My heart still trusteth in his might;
It doubteth not nor feareth:
Do thus, O ye of Israel's seed,
Ye of the Spirit born indeed;
And wait till God appeareth.
5 Though great our sins and sore our woes
His grace much more aboundeth;
His helping love no limit knows,
Our utmost need it soundeth.
Our Shepherd good and true is he,
Who will at last his Israel free
From all their sin and sorrow.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English Tune Title: ALLEIN GOTT IN DER HÖH'

on thy grace I rest my plea;
plenteous in compassion thou,
blot out my transgressions now;
wash me, make me pure within,
cleanse, O cleanse me from my sin.
2 My transgressions I confess,
grief and guilt my soul oppress;
I have sinned against thy grace
and provoked thee to thy face;
I confess thy judgment just,
speechless, I thy mercy trust.
3 I am evil, born in sin;
thou desirest truth within.
thou alone my Savior art,
teach thy wisdom to my heart;
make me pure, thy grace bestow,
wash me whiter than the snow.

by thy wrath and judgment just,
let my contrite heart rejoice
and in gladness hear thy voice;
from my sins O hide thy face,
blot them out in boundless grace.

make my spirit right and true;
cast me not away from thee,
let thy Spirit dwell in me;
thy salvation's joy impart,
steadfast make my willing heart.
6 Sinners then shall learn from me
and return, O God, to thee;
Savior, all my guilt remove,
and my tongue shall sing thy love;
touch my silent lips, O Lord,
and my mouth shall praise accord.

Unto Thee, O Lord Jehovah
Yea, as I live, Jehovah saith
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #49 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Forgiveness of Sin Lyrics: 1 Yea, as I live, Jehovah saith,
I do not wish the sinner's death,
But that he turn from error's ways,
Repent, and live through endless days.
2 Hence Christ His servants gave command:
Go forth and preach in every land;
Pardon to every soul extend
That mourns, believes, and will amend.
3 Whose sins soever ye remit,
I truly pardon and acquit;
Whose sins soever ye retain,
Condemned and guilty shall remain.
4 What ye shall bind, that bound shall be;
What ye shall loose, that shall be free;
For unto you the keys are given
To ope or close the gates of heaven.
5 They who believe, when ye proclaim
The joyful tidings, in my name,
That I for them my blood have shed,
Are free from guilt and judgment dread.
6 Let those who stings of conscience bear,
Whom sin would drive to dark despair,
To Jesus come with trustful mind,
And peace in Absolution find. Languages: English Tune Title: YEA, AS I LIVE, JEHOVAH SAITH
Yea, as I live, Jehovah saith
