Weeps The Savior O'er His Foe

Author: Charles Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Weeps the Savior o’er His foe Lyrics: 1 Weeps the Savior o’er His foe, The vilest of mankind: Need we arguments to show His mercy unconfined? Arguments His heart to prove, Copious from His eyes they fall; Every tear demonstrates love, And love that died for all! 2 Still the streams of pity run, And never, never cease, Still He mourns a soul undone By its own wickedness: One who would from Him depart He doth with His mercy see: Grieves for me His melting heart, His Spirit grieves for me! 3 Jesus, lengthen out my day, That I Thy grace may know, Grace which takes the stone away, And makes the waters flow: Touch me with Thy sacred grief, Draw me to Thy wounded side; Then Thy blood is my relief, And speaks me justified.

Sailing into Port

Author: Philip P. Bliss Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Sailor, though the darkness gathers Refrain First Line: Sailing into port, what matter Lyrics: 1. Sailor, though the darkness gathers, Though the cold waves surge and moan, Trust thy bark to God’s great mercy, Falter not; sail on, sail on. Refrain Sailing into port, what matter, Drooping sail or shattered mast? Glory, glory fills the harbor, There we’ll anchor safe at last. 2. Sailor, though with streamers flying, Yonder proud ship mounts the foam, And with bands of music playing, Gains the port and welcome home. [Refrain] 3. Sailor, though the lightning flashes, Though thy sails be rent and torn, Peace shall come on hope’s bright pinions, And deliverance with the morn. [Refrain] Used With Tune: SAILING Text Sources: The Charm: A Collection of Sunday School Music (Chicago, Illinois: Root & Cady, 1871)

Day Of Life

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Day of Life, all sorrows ending Lyrics: 1 Day of Life, all sorrows ending, Day when death itself will die, All the veil of darkness rending On the mountain, on the sky: Travailed for in all creation Light shall now no more delay, Crowning prayer with swift salvation, Wiping every tear away. 2 O what blissful joy’s endearing, Hearts so weary and so sore, Those who loved His first appearing Now to see and love Him more! O what rapture, O what pleasure, Now no worldly joys to love; O what sorrow, now no treasure There to find amassed above!

When Oppressed With Sore Afflcition

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: When op­pressed with sore af­flict­ion Lyrics: 1 When op­pressed with sore af­flict­ion, In the sac­red word I find Antidotes against de­ject­ion, Sovereign balm to heal the mind; As I turn the vol­ume ov­er, And ex­plore each am­ple page, Treasures new I oft dis­co­ver Which my warm­est thoughts en­gage. 2 But at times, alas, I wan­der, Seem to read the word in vain, And too oft that time I squan­der, When true wis­dom I might gain, Pardon, Lord, my in­at­ten­tion, Sacred en­er­gy im­part, To re­store from this de­clen­sion, My de­ceit­ful, wan­der­ing heart. 3 Shed on me Thy rays trans­port­ing, Dissipate the gloom with­in, May I to Thy word re­sort­ing, Rescued be from ev­ery sin; Let the joys of Thy sal­va­tion, Ever hence my pow­ers en­gage, Send Thy truth to ev­ery na­tion, Bid it shine from age to age.
