RESIGNATION
Come, ye sinners, poor and needy
Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 1,462 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,
Weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
Full of pity, love, and power;
He is able,
He is able,
He is willing: doubt no more.
2 Let not conscience make you linger,
Nor of fitness fondly dream;
All the fitness He requireth
Is to feel your need of Him;
This he gives you;
This he gives you;
'Tis the Spirit's rising beam.
3 Come, ye weary, heavy-laden,
Lost and ruined by the fall;
If you tarry till you're better,
You will never come at all.
Not the righteous,
Not the righteous,
Sinners, Jesus came to call.
4 View Him prostrate in the garden,
Lo! your Maker prostrate lies;
On the bloody tree behold Him;
Hear Him cry before He dies:
"It is finished!"
"It is finished!"
Sinner, will not this suffice?
5 Lo! th' incarnate God ascended
Pleads the merit of His blood;
Venture on Him, venture wholly,
Let no other trust intrude:
None but Jesus,
None but Jesus,
Can do helpless sinners good. Topics: The Gospel Call; Christ Intercession of; Christ Receives Sinners; Confession of Sin; Danger of Delay; Doubt and Fear; Fitness for Grace; Heavenly-Mindedness; Repentance; Salvation by Grace Used With Tune: RESIGNATION

Father, Son, and Holy Spirit
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #196 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 Father, Son, and Holy Spirit,
I'm baptized in Thy dear name;
In the seed Thou dost inherit,
With the people Thou dost claim,
I am reckoned,
I am reckoned,
And for me the Saviour came.
2 Thou receivest me, O Father,
As a child and heir of Thine:
Jesus, Thou who diedst, yea, rather
Ever livest, Thou art mine.
Thou, O Spirit,
Thou, O Spirit,
Art my guide, my light divine.
3 I have pledged, and would not falter,
Truth, obedience, love to Thee;
I have vows upon Thine altar
Ever Thine alone to be,
And forever,
And forever,
Sin and all its lusts to flee.
4 Gracious God, all Thou hast spoken
In this covenant shall take place;
But if I, alas, have broken
These my vows, hide not Thy face;
And from falling,
And from falling,
O restore me by Thy grace!
5 Lord, to Thee I now surrender
All I have, and all I am;
Make my heart more true and tender,
Glorify in me Thy name.
Let obedience,
Let obedience,
To Thy will be all my aim.
6 Help me in this high endeavor,
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!
Bind my heart to Thee forever,
Till I join the heavenly host;
Living, dying,
Living, dying,
Let me make in Thee my boast. Topics: Baptism; Confirmation; Consecration; Renouncing All for Christ Languages: English Tune Title: RESIGNATION

Person Name: Anon. Author of "Savior, like a shepherd lead us" in The Lutheran Hymnary In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

Jane Eliza Leeson
1807 - 1882 Person Name: J. E. Leeson, 1807-82 Author of "Gracious Savior, Gentle Shepherd" in Evangelical Lutheran Hymnary Leeson, Jane E.. The earliest work by Miss Leeson with which we are acquainted is her Infant Hymnings. Then followed Hymns and Scenes of Childhood, or A Sponsor's Gift (London, James Burns; Nottingham, Dearden), 1842, in which the Infant Hymnings were incorporated. Concerning Pt. ii. of the Hymns and Scenes, &c, Miss Leeson says, "For the best of the Poems in the second part, the Writer is indebted to a friend." In the Rev. Henry Formby's Catholic Hymns arranged in order for the principal Festivals, Feasts of Saints, and other occasions of Devotion throughout the Year, London, Burns and Lambert, N.D. [1851], "Imprimatur, N. Cardinalis Wiseman, May 3rd, 1853," her translation of Victimae Paschali (“Christ the Lord is risen to-day"), and her "Loving Shepherd of Thy Sheep" (also in Hymns & Scenes, 1842), were given under the signature "M. L." Her Paraphrases and Hymns for Congregational Singing (most of " which were re-written from the Scottish Translations and Paraphrases (q.v.), 1781) were published by Wertheimer & Co., London, in 1853. In the Irvingite Hymns for the Use of the Churches, 1864, there are five of her original hymns and four of her translations from the Latin under the signature of "J. E. L.; "and most of these were repeated in the 2nd edition, 1871. In addition Miss Leeson is the author of several other works, including The Christian Child's Book, 1848, The Child's Book of Ballads, 1849, Songs of Christian Chivalry, 1848, Margaret, a Poem, 1850, The Seven Spiritual Works of Mercy, and others. Her hymns in common use include:—
