Penitence and hope
Author: Steele Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCLXXII (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence and hope First Line: Dear Savior, when my thoughts recall Lyrics: 1 Dear Savior, when my thoughts recall
The wonders of thy grace;
Low at thy feet asham'd I fall,
And hide this wretched face.
2 Shall love like thine be thus repaid?
Ah vile ungrateful heart!
By earth's low cares, detain'd, betray'd,
From Jesus to depart.
3 From Jesus who alone can give
True pleasure, peace, and rest:
When Absent from my Lord, I live
Unsatisfy'd unblest.
4 But he, for his own mercy's sake,
My wand'ring soul restores:
He bids the mourning heart partake
The pardon it implores.
5 O while I breathe to thee my Lord,
The penitential sigh,
Confirm the kind, forgiving word
With pity in thine eye!
6 Then shall the mourner at thy feet,
Rejoice to seek thy face;
And grateful own how kind! how sweet!
Thy condescending grace. Languages: English

Penitence and Hope
Hymnal: The Psalter #364 (1912) Topics: Penitence First Line: From out the depths I cry to Thee Lyrics: 1 From out the depths I cry to Thee;
O let Thy ear attentive be,
Hear Thou my supplicating plea,
Have mercy, Lord.
2 If marked by Thee our sin appeared,
Who, Lord, could stand in judgment cleared?
Forgiveness, that Thou mayst be feared,
There is with Thee.
3 I wait for Thee, my soul doth wait,
Thy word my hope in ev'ry strait;
None watch, o Lord, at morning's gate
As I for Thee.
4 O Israel,hope thou in the Lord,
His mercy will thy faith reward,
Ne full redemption will accord
From all thy sin.

Timely penitence
With broken heart and contrite sigh
Author: C. Elven Hymnal: The Church Hymnal #87a (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Penitence Lyrics: 1 With broken heart and contrite sigh,
A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry:
Thy pardoning grace is rich and free:
O God, be merciful to me.
2 I smite upon my troubled breast,
With deep and conscience guilt oppressed;
Christ and His cross my only plea:
O God, be merciful to me.
3 Far off I stand with tearful eyes,
Nor dare uplift them to the skies;
But Thou dost all my anguish see:
O God, be merciful to me.
4 Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done,
Can for a single sin atone;
To Calvary alone I flee:
O God, be merciful to me.
5 And when, redeemed from sin and hell,
With all the ransomed throng I dwell,
My raptured song shall ever be,
God has been merciful to me.
Amen.

With broken heart and contrite sigh
In the hour of trial
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: The Hymnal of Praise #185 (1913) Topics: The Christian Life Penitence and Confession Tune Title: PENITENCE
In the hour of trial
O that I could repent!
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #249 (1828) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Prayer for penitence Lyrics: 1 O that I could repent!
With all my idols part;
And to thy gracious eye present
An humble contrite heart!
2 A heart with grief opprest,
For having griev'd my God;
A troubled heart that cannot rest
Till sprinkled with thy blood!
3 Jesus on me bestow,
The penitent desire;
With true sincerity of wo
My aching breast inspire;
4 With softening pity look,
And melt my hardness down;
Strike with thy love's resistless stroke,
And break this heart of stone!
O that I could repent!
Prostrate, dear Jesus! at thy feet
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #257 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Penitence of the awakened sinner Penitence; The Penitent Lyrics: 1 Prostrate, dear Jesus! at thy feet,
A guilty rebel lies;
And upwards to the mercy-seat
Presumes to lift his eyes.
2 Oh let not justice frown me hence;
Stay, stay the vengeful storm:
Forbid it that Omnipotence
Should crush a feeble worm.
3 If tears of sorrow would suffice
To pay the debt I owe,
Tears should from both my weeping eyes
In ceaseless torrents flow
4 but no such sacrifice I plead
To expiate my guilt;
No tears, but those which thou hast shed,--
No blood, but thou hast spilt.
5 Think of thy sorrows, dearest Lord!
And all my sins forgive:
Justice will well approve the word
That bids the sinner live.
Prostrate, dear Jesus! at thy feet
Father, hear Thy children's call

1 Father, hear Thy children's call;
Humbly at Thy feet we fall,
Prodigals, confessing all:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
2 Christ, beneath Thy cross we blame
All our life of sin and shame;
Penitent, we breathe Thy Name:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
3 Holy Spirit, grieved and tried,
Oft forgotten and defied,
Now we mourn our stubborn pride:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
4 Love, that caused us first to be,
Love, that bled upon the tree,
Love, that draws us lovingly:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
5 We Thy call have disobeyed,
Into paths of sin have strayed,
And repentance have delayed:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
6 Sick, we come to Thee for cure,
Guilty, seek Thy mercy sure,
Evil, long to be made pure:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
7 Blind, we pray that we may see,
Bound, we pray to be made free,
Stained, we pray for sanctity:
We beseech Thee, hear us.
8 Thou who hear'st each contrite sigh,
Bidding sinful souls draw nigh,
Willing not that one should die,
We beseech Thee, hear us.
Amen. Languages: English Tune Title: [Father, hear Thy children's call]
