Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 687 hymnals Matching Instances: 93 Lyrics: 1 Hark, my soul! It is the Lord; 'Tis thy Saviour, hear his word; Jesus speaks, and speaks to thee, 'Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me? 2 'I delivered thee when bound, And, when bleeding, healed thy wound; Sought thee wandering, set thee right, Turned thy darkness into light. 3 'Can a woman's tender care Cease toward the child she bare? Yes, she may forgetful be, Yet will I remember thee. 4 'Mine is an unchanging love, Higher than the heights above, Deeper than the depths beneath, Free and faithful, strong as death. 5 'Thou shalt see my glory soon, When the work of grace is done; Partner of my throne shalt be; Say, poor sinner, lov'st thou me?' 6 Lord, it is my chief complaint That my love is weak and faint; Yet I love Thee, and adore; O for grace to love thee more!

Jesus! Name of wondrous love!

Author: W. Walsham How Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 166 hymnals Matching Instances: 13 Lyrics: Jesus! Name of wondrous love! Name all other names above! Unto which must every knee Bow in deep humility. Jesus! Name decreed of old To the maiden mother told, Kneeling in her lowly cell, By the angel Gabriel. Jesus! Name of priceless worth To the fallen sons of earth, For the promise that it gave "Jesus shall his people save." Jesus! Name of mercy mild, Given to the holy Child When the cup of human woe First he tasted here below. Jesus! only Name that's given, Under all the mighty heaven, Whereby man, to sin enslaved, Bursts his fetters and is saved. Jesus! Name of wondrous love! Human Name of God above; Pleading only this we flee, Helpless, O our God, to thee. Amen. Topics: Circumcision; Catechism; Sunday Schools Christmastide Used With Tune: ST. BEES

God of hosts, turn back again, all such wickedness restrain. 4 Turn us too, for we have failed, faithfulness has not prevailed; visit, Lord, and heal your vine, on its fruit let glory shine!
