The Savior calls; let every ear

Hymnal: ELH1880 #372 (1880) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The Savior calls; let every ear Attend the heav'nly sound: Ye doubting souls! dismiss your fear; Hope smiles reviving round. 2 For every thirsty, longing heart, Here streams of bounty flow, And life and health, and bliss impart To banish mortal woe. 3 Here springs of sacred pleasures rise To ease your every pain: Immortal fountain! full supplies! Nor shall you thirst in vain. 4 Ye wand'rers! come, ’tis mercy’s voice, The gracious call obey; Mercy invites to heavenly joys, And can you yet delay? 5 Dear Savior! draw reluctant hearts; To Thee let sinners fly And take the bliss Thy love imparts And drink, and never die.

Behold a Stranger at the door!

Hymnal: ELH1880 #373 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Behold a Stranger at the door! He gently knocks-- has knocked before, Has waited long-- is waiting still: You treat no other friend so ill. 2 O lovely attitude, He stands With melting heart and loaded hands! O matchless kindness! and He shows This matchless kindness to His foes! 3 But will He prove a friend indeed? He will; the very friend you need; The Friend of sinners--yes, 'tis He, With garments dyed on Calvary. 4 Admit Him ere His anger burn; His feet, departed, ne'er return; Admit Him, or the hour's at hand You'll at His door rejected stand.

Sinners turn; why will you die?

Hymnal: ELH1880 #374 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Sinners turn; why will you die? God, your Maker, asks you why; God, who did your being give, Made you with Himself to live: 2 Sinners turn; why will you die? God, your Savior, asks you why: God, who did your souls retrieve, Died Himself that you might live. 3 Will you let Him die in vain? Crucify your Lord again? Why, you ransomed sinners, why Will you slight His grace, and die? 4 Sinners turn; why will you die? God, the Spirit, asks you why; He Who all your lives has striv'n, To direct your souls to heaven. 5 Will ye not His grace receive? Will ye still refuse to live? O you long-sought sinners, why Will you grieve your God and die? Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Call to Grace, &c. Languages: English

Hasten, O sinner, to be wise

Hymnal: ELH1880 #377 (1880) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Hasten, O sinner, to be wise, And stay not for the morrow’s sun: The longer wisdom you despise, The harder is she to be won. 2 O hasten mercy to implore, And stay not for the morrow’s sun, For fear thy season should be o’er, Before this evening’s course be run. 3 Hasten, O sinner, to return, And stay not for the morrow’s sun, For fear thy lamp should fail to burn, Before the needful work is done. 4 Hasten, O sinner, to be blest, And stay not for the morrow’s sun, For fear the curse should thee arrest, Before the morrow is begun.

A fountain is opened; how canst thou refuse To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? 3 Delay not, delay not, the Spirit of grace, Long grieved and resisted, may take His sad flight, And leave thee in darkness to finish thy race, To sink in the vale of eternity's night.

Come to Calv'ry's holy mountain

Hymnal: ELH1880 #379 (1880) Lyrics: 1 Come to Calv'ry's holy mountain, Sinners ruined by the fall: Here a pure and healing fountain Flows to you, to me, to all, In a full perpetual tide, Opened when our Savior died. 2 Come, in sorrow and contrition, Wounded, impotent and blind; Here the guilty free remission, Here the troubled peace may find; Health this fountain will restore; He that drinks shall thirst no more. 3 He that drinks shall live forever; 'Tis a soul-renewing flood; God is faithful; God will never Break the covenant of His blood, Signed when our Redeemer died, Sealed when He was glorified.

And shall we still be slaves

Hymnal: ELH1880 #381 (1880) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And shall we still be slaves, And in our fetters lie, When summoned by a voice divine T'assert our liberty? 2 Did Christ the Saviour bleed, Our freedom to obtain? And shall we trample on His blood, And glory in our chain? 3 Shall we go on to sin, Because His grace abounds; Or crucify the Lord again, And open all His wounds? 4 Forbid it, mighty God! Nor let it e'er be said That those, for whom Thy Son has died, In vice are lost and dead. Topics: Christian Life and Hope ; The Walk of Godliness Christian Resolve and Holiness Languages: English
