He Took My Sins Away
Author: Margaret J. Harris Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:1 First Line: I came to Jesus, weary, worn, and sad Lyrics: 1 I came to Jesus, weary, worn, and sad,
He took my sins away,
He took my sins away.
And now His love has made my heart so glad,
He took my sins away.
Chorus:
He took my sins away,
He took my sins away,
And keeps me singing every day!
I’m so glad He took my sins away.
He took my sins away.
2 The load of sin was more than I could bear.
He took them all away,
He took them all away.
And now on Him I roll my every care,
He took my sins away. (Chorus)
3 No condemnation have I in my heart,
He took my sins away,
He took my sins away.
His perfect peace He did to me impart,
He took my sins away. (Chorus)
4 If you will come to Jesus Christ today,
He’ll take your sins away,
He’ll take your sins away,
And keep you happy in His love each day,
He’ll take your sins away. (Chorus)

but with joy, wend your way;
though hard to you this journey may appear,
grace shall be as your day.
God's hand of love shall be your guide,
and all your need he will provide;
his power shall every foe dispel,
all is well, all is well!
2 What though the path you tread be rough and steep?
Have no fear, he is near!
His mighty arm unto the end will keep,
soon his call you shall hear.
Then follow on, fresh courage take,
for God his own will ne'er forsake,
Till in his presence they shall dwell!
All is well! all is well!

round his throne, for his own,
where they may rest forever in his love,
toil and tears all unknown.
There they shall sing eternal praise
to him who saved them by his grace;
through heaven's courts the song shall swell,
"All is well! all is well!"

The Day Is Surely Drawing Near
Author: Bartholomäus Ringwaldt, 1532-1599; Philip A. Peter, 1832-1919 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 34 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:1 Lyrics: 1 The day is surely drawing near
when Jesus, God's anointed,
shall with great majesty appear
as judge of all appointed.
All mirth and laughter then shall cease
when flames on flames will still increase,
as Scripture truly teaches.
2 A trumpet loud shall then resound
and all the earth be shaken.
Then all who in their graves are found
shall from their sleep awaken
and with the living in that hour,
by God's almighty, boundless pow'r,
be changed at his commanding.
3 A books is opened then to all,
a record truly telling
what each has done, both great and small,
when they on earth were dwelling,
and ev'ry heart be clearly seen,
and all be known as they have been
in thoughts and words and actions.
4 Then woe to those who scorned the Lord
and sought but carnal pleasures,
who here despised his precious Word
and loved their earthly treasures!
With shame and trembling they will stand
and at the judge's stern command
to Satan be delivered.
5 My Savior paid the debt I owe
and for my sin was smitten;
within the Book of Life I know
my name has now been written.
I will not doubt, for I am free,
and Satan cannot threaten me;
there is no condemnation!
6 O Jesus Christ, do not delay,
but hasten our salvation;
we often tremble on our way
in fear and tribulation.
Your saints are waiting patiently;
come soon, Redeemer, make us free
from ev'ry evil. Amen. Topics: Second Coming Used With Tune: ES IST GEWISSLICH

Great God, Your Love Has Called Us Here
Author: Brian Wren (1936-) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8:1-11 Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong;
half-free, half-bound by inner chains;
by social forces swept along,
by powers and systems close confined;
yet seeking hope for humankind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own
not through some merit, right, or claim,
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Topics: Call and Vocation; Holy Week (Maundy Thursday); Sunday Used With Tune: ST. PETERSBURG

earth's mysteries known or yet untold;

enabling life, proclaim your care.
3 Redeeming God, your arms embrace
all now despised for creed or race;
let peace, descending like a dove,
make known on earth your healing love.
4 Indwelling God, your gospel claims
one family with a billion names;
let every life be touched by grace
until we praise you face to face. Topics: Creation; Creation; Healing; Stewardship Used With Tune: KEDRON

In the Bulb There Is a Flower
Author: Natalie Sleeth Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 25 hymnals Scripture: Romans 8 Lyrics: 1 In the bulb there is a flower;
in the seed, an apple tree;
in cocoons, a hidden promise:
butterflies will soon be free!
In the cold and snow of winter
there’s a spring that waits to be,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
2 There’s a song in ev'ry silence,
seeking word and melody;
there’s a dawn in ev'ry darkness,
bringing hope to you and me.
From the past will come the future;
what it holds, a mystery,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see.
3 In our end is our beginning;
in our time, infinity;
in our doubt there is believing;
in our life, eternity.
In our death, a resurrection;
at the last, a victory,
unrevealed until its season,
something God alone can see. Topics: Journey; Christian paradox; Covenant; Journey; Stages of Life Used With Tune: PROMISE
