A charge to keep I have
Out of the deep I call
Author: Sir H. W. Baker Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 57 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Out of the deep I call
To Thee, O Lord, to Thee.
Before Thy throne of grace I fall;
Be merciful to me.
2 Out of the deep I cry,
The woful deep of sin,
Of evil done in days gone by,
Of evil now within.
3 Out of the deep of fear
And dread of coming shame,
From morning watch till night is near
I plead the precious Name.
4 Lord, there is mercy now,
As ever was, with Thee;
Before Thy throne of grace I bow;
Be merciful to me.
Amen. Topics: Parochial Missions; Penitence Used With Tune: [Out of the deep I call]

The Sinner's Burial
Author: Horatius Bonar Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: Wrapt in a Christless shroud Lyrics: 1 Wrapt in a Christless shroud,
He sleeps the Christless sleep;
Above him, the eternal cloud,
Beneath, the fiery deep.
2 Laid in a Christless tomb,
There, bound with felon-chain,
He waits the terrors of his doom,
The judgment and the pain.
3 O Christless shroud, how cold,
How dark, O Christless tomb!
O grief that never can grow old,
O endless, hopeless doom!
4 O Christless sleep, how sad!
What waking shalt thou know?
For thee no star, no dawning glad,
Only the lasting woe!
5 To rocks and hills in vain
Shall be the sinner’s call;
O day of wrath, and death and pain,
The lost soul’s funeral!
6 O Christless soul, awake,
Ere thy last sleep begin!
O Christ, the sleeper’s slumbers break,
Burst Thou the bands of sin! Used With Tune: ASTON Text Sources: Hymns of Faith and Hope 2nd series (London, James Nisbet, 1861)
