O Holy Spirit, Comforter

Holling, 1867- Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #165 (1917) Topics: Conviction of sin By the Spirit; Conviction of sin By the Spirit Lyrics: 1 O Holy Spirit, Comforter, Blest Advocate and Friend, Be near us in the stress of life, Thy heavenly aid to lend, For Thou the Spirit art Of Life and Light and Love, Our death, our doubt and sin Thy coming shall remove. 2 O Holy Spirit, Comforter, Thou promised guide divine, On all the journey of our life Command Thy light to shine. So shall we never stray From ways our Master trod, So shall our pathway lead To rest, to home and God. 3 O Holy Spirit, Comforter, Thou searching, cleansing fire; Come purge away the dross of sin, Make pure the heart's desire. Then kindle in us zeal, And crown with tongues of flame, With Pentecostal power We shall the word proclaim. 4 O Holy Spirit, Comforter, Convict the world of sin, Reveal the righteousness of God, The reign of Christ bring in. Then shall the kings of earth Their scepters sway in peace, And war with all its woe From all the earth shall cease. 5 O Holy Spirit, Comforter, Now glorify the Son; Now save and sanctify and seal, And make Thy people one. So shall the church on earth Be as the Church above; So shall the world become A paradise of love. Languages: English Tune Title: PARADISE

Depth of mercy! Can there be

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #331 (1917) Topics: Conviction, of sin; Sin Conviction of Lyrics: 1 Depth of mercy! Can there be Mercy still reserved for me? Can my God His wrath forbear? Me, the chief of sinners, spare? I have long withstood His grace, Long provoked Him to His face, Would not hearken to His calls, Grieved Him by a thousand falls. 2 Whence to me this waste of love? Ask my Advocate above; See the cause in Jesus' face. Now before the throne of grace. There for me the Saviour stands, Shows His wounds, and spread His hands; God is love! I know, I feel; Jesus weeps, and loves me still! 3 Jesus, answer from above; Is not all Thy nature love? Wilt thou not the wrong forget, Suffering me to kiss Thy feet? If I rightly read Thy heart, If Thou all compassion art, Bow Thine ear, in mercy bow, Pardon and accept me now. Languages: English Tune Title: CULFORD

My heart, how dreadful hard it is!

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XCVIII (1766) Topics: Conviction of Sin by the Cross of Christ Lyrics: 1 My Heart, how dreadful hard it is! How heavy here it lies, Heavy and cold within my Breast, Just like a Rock of Ice! 2 Sin, like a raging Tyrant, sits Upon this flinty Throne, And ev'ry Grace lies bury'd deep Beneath this Heart of Stone. 3 How seldom do I rise to God, Or taste the Joys above? This Mountain presses down my Faith, And chills my flaming Love. 4 When smiling Mercy courts my Soul With all its heav'nly Charms, This stubborn, this relentless Thing Would thrust it from my Arms. 5 Against the Thunders of thy Word, Rebellious I have stood; My Heart! it shakes not at the Wrath And Terrors of a God. 6 Dear Saviour, steep this Rock of mine In thine own Crimson Sea! None but a Bath of Blood divine Can melt the Flint away. Languages: English
