Oh, how divine, how sweet the joy

Author: Needham Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #412 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 Oh, how divine, how sweet the joy, When but one sinner turns, And with an humble, broken heart, His sins and errors mourns. 2 Pleased with the news, the saints below In songs their tongues employ; Beyond the skies the tidings go, And heaven is filled with joy. 3 Nor angels can their joys contain, But kindle with new fire; The sinner lost is found, they sing, And strike the sounding lyre.

The long-lost son, with streaming eyes

Author: Anon. Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #426 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Christian System Repentance and Faith Lyrics: 1 The long-lost son, with streaming eyes, From folly just awake, Reviews his wanderings with surprise; His heart begins to break. 2 I starve, he cries, nor can I bear The famine in this land, While servants of my father share The bounty of his hand. 3 With deep repentance I'll return, And seek my father's face; Unworthy to be called a son, I'll ask a servant's place. 4 Far off the father saw him move-- In pensive silence mourn-- And quickly ran, with arms of love, To welcome his return. 5 Through all the courts the tidings flew, And spread the joy around; The angels tuned their harps anew-- The long-lost son is found!

Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in Sin

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P51b (1766) Topics: Repentance and Faith in the Blood of Chirst Lyrics: 1 Lord, I am vile, conceiv'd in Sin; And born unholy and unclean; Sprung from the Man whose guilty Fall Corrupts the Race, and taints us All. 2 Soon as we draw our Infant-Breath, The Seeds of Sin grow up for Death; Thy Law demands a perfect Heart; But we're defil'd in ev'ry Part. 3 [Great GOD, create my Heart a new, And form my Spirit pure and true; O make me wise betimes, to spy My Danger and my Remedy.] 4 Behold I fall before thy Face; My only Refuge is thy Grace: No outward Forms can make me clean; The Leprosy lies deep within. 5 No bleeding Bird, nor bleeding Beast, Nor Hyssop-Branch, nor sprinkling Priest, Nor running Brook, nor Flood, nor Sea, Can wash the dismal Stain away. 6 Jesus, my GOD, thy Blood alone Hath Pow'r sufficient to attone; Thy Blood can make me white as Snow; No Jewish Types could cleanse me so. 7 While Guilt disturbs and breaks my Peace, Nor Flesh nor Soul hath Rest or Ease, Lord, let me hear thy pard'ning Voice, And make my broken Bones rejoice. Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English

O Thou that hear'st when Sinners cry

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P51c (1766) Topics: Repentance and Faith in the Blood of Chirst Lyrics: 1 O Thou that hear'st when Sinners cry, Tho' all my Crimes before thee lie, Behold them not with angry Look, But blot their Mem'ry from thy Book. 2 Create my Nature pure within, And form my Soul averse to Sin; Let thy good Spirit ne'er depart, Nor hide thy Presence from my Heart. 3 I cannot live without thy Light, Cast out and banished from thy Sight: Thine holy Joys my GOD restore, And guard me that I fall no more. 4 Though I have griev'd thy Spirit, Lord, Thy Help and Comfort still afford; And let a Wretch come near thy Throne To plead the Merits of thy Son. 5 A broken Heart, my GOD, my King, Is all the Sacrifice I bring; The God of Grace will ne'er despise A broken Heart for Sacrifice. 6 My Soul lies humbled in the Dust, And owns thy dreadful Sentence just; Look down, O Lord, with pitying Eye, And save the Soul condemn'd to die. 7 Then will I teach the World thy Ways; Sinners shall learn thy sov'reign Grace; I'll lead them to my Saviour's Blood, And they shall praise a pard'ning God. 8 O may thy Love inspire my Tongue! Salvation shall be all my Song; And all my Pow'rs shall join to bless The Lord, my Strength and Righteousness. Scripture: Psalm 51 Languages: English

Lord, I would spread my sore Distress

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P51d (1766) Topics: Repentance and Faith in the Blood of Chirst Lyrics: 1 Lord, I would spread my sore Distress And Guilt before thine Eyes; Against thy Laws, against thy Grace How high my Crimes arise! 2 Shouldst thou condemn my Soul to Hell, And crush my Flesh to Dust, Heav'n would approve thy Vengeance well, And Earth must own it just. 3 I from the Stock of Adam came, Unholy and unclean; All my Original is Shame, And all my Nature Sin. 4 Born in a World of Guilt, I drew Contagion with my Breath, And as my Days advanc'd, I grew A juster Prey for Death. 5 Cleanse me, O Lord, and chear my Soul With thy forgiving Love; O make my broken Spirit whole, And bid my Pains remove. 6 Let not thy Spirit quite depart, Nor drive me from thy Face; Create anew my vicious Heart, And fill it with thy Grace. 7 Then will I make thy Mercy known Before the Sons of Men; Backsliders shall address thy Throne, And turn to GOD again. Scripture: Psalm 51:3-13 Languages: English
