Approach, My Soul, the Mercy Seat
Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 616 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy seat,
Where Jesus answers prayer:
There humbly fall before His feet,
For none can perish there.
2 Thy promise is my only plea,
With this I venture high;
Thou call'st the burdened soul to Thee,
And such, O Lord, am I.
3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin,
By Satan sorely pressed,
By wars without, and fears within,
I come to Thee for rest.
4 Be Thou my shield and hiding place,
That, sheltered near Thy side,
I may my fierce accuser face,
And tell him Thou hast died.
5 O wondrous love! to bleed and die,
To bear the cross and shame,
That guilty sinners, such as I,
Might plead Thy gracious name.
6 "Poor tempest tossed soul, be thou still,
My promised grace receive."
'Tis Jesus speaks I must, I will,
I can, I do believe!
Amen. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer and Intercession; Conversion; Prayer Scripture: 1 John 3:17 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM
Approach, My Soul, the Mercy Seat
And Must I Be to Judgment Brought
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 279 hymnals Lyrics: 1 And must I be to judgment brought,
And answer in that day
For every vain and idle thought,
And every word I say?
2 Yes, every secret of my heart
Shall shortly be made known,
And I receive my just desert
For all that I have done.
3 How careful, then, ought I to live!
With what religious fear!
Who such a strict account must give
For my behavior here!
4 Thou awful Judge of quick and dead,
Thy watchful power bestow;
So shall I to my ways take heed,
To all I speak or do.
5 If now Thou standest at the door,
O let me feel Thee near!
And make my peace with God, before
I at Thy bar appear. Topics: The Christian Life Death and Life Eternal; Judgment Scripture: Psalm 139:23 Used With Tune: MARTYRDOM
And Must I Be to Judgment Brought
Father, I Stretch My Hands to Thee
Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 541 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father, I stretch my hands to Thee;
No other help I know.
If Thou withdraw Thyself from me,
Oh! whither shall I go?
2 What did Thine only Son endure,
Before I drew my breath!
What pain, what labor to secure
My soul from endless death!
3 Surely Thou canst not let me die;
Oh, speak and I shall live;
And here I will unwearied lie,
Till Thou Thy Spirit give.
4 Author of faith! to Thee I lift
My weary, longing eyes;
Oh, let me now receive that gift!
My soul without it dies.
