God is my strong salvation
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 288 hymnals Topics: Salvation Lyrics: 1 God is my strong salvation,
what foe have I to fear?
in darkness and temptation
my light, my help, is near;
though hosts encamp around me,
firm at my post I stand;
what terror can confound me,
with God at my right hand?
2 Place on the Lord reliance,
my soul with courage wait;
his truth my reassurance
when faint and desolate;
his might my heart shall strengthen,
his love my joy increase;
mercy my days shall lengthen,
the Lord will give me peace.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,202 hymnals Topics: The Way of Salvation Salvation by Grace Lyrics: 1 Come, thou fount of ev'ry blessing,
tune my heart to sing thy grace;
streams of mercy, never ceasing,
call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
sung by flaming tongues above;
praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it,
mount of God's unchanging love.
2 Here I raise my Ebenezer;
hither by thy help I'm come;
and I hope, by thy good pleasure,
safely to arrive at home.
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
wand'ring from the fold of God:
he, to rescue me from danger,
interposed his precious blood.
3 O to grace how great a debtor
daily I'm constrained to be;
let that grace now, like a fetter,
bind my wand'ring heart to thee.
Prone to wander – Lord, I feel it –
prone to leave the God I love;
here's my heart, O take and seal it,
seal it for thy courts above.
Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Used With Tune: NETTLETON
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing

angels descending bring from above
echoes of mercy, whispers of love. [Refrain]

I in my Saviour am happy and blessed;
watching and waiting, looking above,
filled with God's goodness, lost in Christ's love. [Refrain] Used With Tune: ASSURANCE

E’en death’s cold wave I will not flee,

that I have loved so long. [Refrain] Used With Tune: HANKEY

And He will soon appear.

What can withstand His will?
The counsel of His grace in me
He surely shall fulfil.

Thou wilt return and claim me, Lord,
And to Thyself receive.

I taste unutterable bliss,

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 286 hymnals Topics: Salvation Lyrics: 1 And can it be that I should gain
an int'rest in the Savior's blood?

for me, who caused his bitter death?
Amazing love! How can it be
that you, my Lord, should die for me?
Amazing love! How can it be
that you, my Lord, should die for me?
2 He left his Father's throne above -
so free, so infinite his grace -
emptied himself of all but love,
and bled for Adam's helpless race!
What mercy this, immense and free,
for, O my God, it found out me!
What mercy this, immense and free,
for, O my God, it found out me!
3 Long my imprisoned spirit lay
fast bound in sin and nature's night.
Your sunrise turned that night to day;
I woke - the dungeon flamed with light!
My chains fell off, your voice I knew;
I rose, went out, and followed you.
My chains fell off, your voice I knew;
I rose, went out, and followed you.
4 No condemnation now I dread,
for Christ, and all in him, is mine!
Alive in him, my living Head,
and clothed in righteousness divine,
bold I approach the eternal throne
and claim the crown, through Christ, my own.
Bold I approach the eternal throne
and claim the crown, through Christ, my own. Scripture: Psalm 86:11-13 Used With Tune: SAGINA

Let me hide myself in Thee;
Let the water and the blood,
From Thy wounded side which flowed,
Be of sin the double cure,
Cleanse me from its guilt and pow'r.
2 Not the labors of my hands
Can fulfill Thy law's demands;
Could my zeal no respite know,
Could my tears forever flow,
All for sin could not atone;
thou must save an Thou alone.
3 Nothing in my hands I bring,
Simply to Thy cross I cling;
Naked, come to Thee for dress,
Helpless, look to Thee for grace;
Foul, I to the fountain fly,
Wash me, Savior, or I die!
4 While I draw this fleeting breath,
When my eyes shall close in death,
When I soar to worlds unknown,
See Thee on Thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
Let me hide myself in Thee.
Amen. Used With Tune: TOPLADY
