With broken heart and contrite sigh

Author: Cornelius Elven Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 217 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 With broken heart and contrite sigh A trembling sinner, Lord, I cry: Thy pardoning grace is rich and free: O God, be merciful to me! 2 I smite upon my troubled breast, With deep and conscience guilt oppressed; Christ and His cross my only plea: O God, be merciful to me! 3 Nor alms, nor deeds that I have done, Can for a single sin atone; To Calvary alone I flee: O God, be merciful to me! 4 And when, redeemed from sin and hell, With all the ransomed throng I dwell, My raptured song shall ever be, God hath been merciful to me!

Upon the Gospel's Sacred Page

Author: John Bowring, 1792-1872 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 107 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1. Upon the Gospel’s sacred page The gathered beams of ages shine; And, as it hastens, every age But makes its brightness more divine. 2. On mightier wing, in loftier flight, From year to year does knowledge soar; And, as it soars, the Gospel light Becomes effulgent more and more. 3. More glorious still, as centuries roll, New regions blest, new powers unfurled, Expanding with the expanding soul, Its radiance shall o’er flow the world. 4. Flow to restore, but not destroy, As when the cloudless lamp of day Pours out its floods of light and joy, And sweeps the lingering mists away. Used With Tune: HOLBORN HILL
