Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near

Meter: 11.11.11.11 Appears in 361 hymnals Topics: Life Brevity, Uncertainty and Solemnity of Lyrics: 1 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, draw near, The waters of life are now flowing for thee; No price is demanded, the Saviour is here; Redemption is purchased, salvation is free. Redemption is purchased, salvation is free. 5 Delay not, delay not, why longer abuse The love and compassion of Jesus, thy God? A fountain is opened; how canst thou refuse To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? To wash and be cleansed in His pardoning blood? 3 Delay not, delay not, O sinner, to come, For mercy still lingers, and calls thee to-day; Her voice is not heard in the shades of the tomb; Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away. Her message, unheeded, will soon pass away. 4 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 gloom of eternity’s night. To sink in the gloom of eternity’s night. Used With Tune: ADESTE FIDELES

The Lord Has Heard and Answered Prayer

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Brevity And Frailty Of Life Lyrics: 1 The Lord has heard and answered prayer And saved His people in distress; This to the coming age declare, That they His holy Name may bless. 2 The Lord, exalted on His throne, Looked down from heaven with pitying eye To still the lowly captive’s moan And save His people doomed to die. 3 All men in Zion shall declare His gracious Name with one accord, When kings and nations gather there To serve and worship God the Lord. 4 Before my journey is complete My vigor fails, my years decline; My God, O spare me, I entreat; The days of life are wholly Thine. 5 Attend, O Lord, to my desire, O haste to answer when I pray, For grief consumes my strength like fire, My days as smoke pass swift away. 6 O cut not short my life's brief day, O Thou whose years eternal run, Thou who didst earth's foundations lay, Creator of the stars and sun. 7 The earth and heavens shall pass away, Like vesture worn and laid aside, But changeless Thou shalt live for aye, Thy years forever shall abide. 8 Thou, O Jehovah, shalt endure, Thy throne forever is the same; And to all generations sure Shall be Thy great memorial Name. 9 Thy servants’ children shall remain Forevermore before Thy face; Enduring honor they shall gain, Established ever in Thy grace.
