Oh, what amazing words of grace

Appears in 277 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Oh, what amazing words of grace Are in the gospel found, Suited to every sinner’s case Who hears the joyful sound! 2 Come, then, with all your wants and wounds, Your every burden bring; Here love, unchanging love, abounds,-- A deep, celestial spring. 3 This spring with living water flows, And heavenly joy imparts; Come, thirsty souls! your wants disclose, And drink with thankful hearts. 4 Millions of sinners, vile as you, Have here found life and peace; Come, then, and prove its virtues too, And drink, adore, and bless.

Thy Goodness, Lord, Our Souls Confess

Author: Thomas Gibbons Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 140 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Thy goodness, Lord, our souls confess, Thy goodness we adore: A spring, whose blessings never fail, A sea without a shore. 2. Sun, moon and stars Thy love attest, In every cheerful ray: Love draws the curtains of the night, And love restores the day. 3. Thy bounty every season crowns, With all the bliss it yields; With joyful clusters bend the vines, With harvests wave the fields. 4. But chiefly Thy compassions, Lord, Are in the Gospel seen; There, like the sun, Thy mercy shines, Without a cloud between. 5. Thy Son, Thy noblest, choicest gift, Was from Thy bosom sent To bear from off a sinking world Its load of punishment. 6. Ours is the life, the glory ours, And His the death and shame; Pardon, acceptance, peace, and joy, Are published in His name. Used With Tune: CLAPHAM Text Sources: Gospel Magazine, 1775

Thou Lord, art love, and everywhere Thy name is brightly shown; Beneath, on earth—Thy footstool fair; Above, in heaven—Thy throne. 2. Thy Word is love; in lines of gold There mercy prints its trace: In nature we Thy steps behold, The Gospel shows Thy face. 3. Thy ways are love; though they transcend Our feeble range of sight, They wind through darkness to their end In everlasting light. 4. Thy thoughts are love, and Jesus is The loving voice they find; His love lights up the vast abyss Of the eternal mind. 5. Thy chastisements are love; more deep They stamp the seal divine; And by a sweet compulsion keep Our spirits nearer Thine. 6. Thy heaven is the abode of love! O blessèd Lord, that we May there, when time’s dim shades remove, Be gathered home to Thee! 7. Then with Thy resting saints to fall Adoring round Thy throne, When all shall love Thee, Lord, and all Shall in Thy love be one.

God moves in a mysterious way

Author: William Cowper Appears in 1,129 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform; He plants His footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. 2 Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill He treasures up His bright designs, And works His sov'reign will. 3 Ye fearful saints! fresh courage take: The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. 4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust Him for His grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. 5 His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding ev'ry hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan His work in vain; God is his own interpreter, And He will make it plain.

Author: F. B. P., 16th Century; David Dickson Appears in 841 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Jerusalem! my happy home! Name ever dear to me! When shall my labors have an end, In joy and peace and thee? 2 When shall these eyes thy heav'n-built walls And pearly gates behold? Thy bulwarks with salvation strong, And streets of shining gold? 3 There happier bow'rs than Eden’s bloom, Nor sin nor sorrow know: Blest seats! through rude and stormy scenes, I onward press to you. 4 Why should I shrink at pain and woe, Or feel at death dismay? I’ve Canaan’s goodly land in view, And realms of endless day. 5 Apostles, martyrs, prophets, there Around my Savior stand; And soon my friends in Christ below, Will join the glorious band. 6 Jerusalem! my happy home! My soul still pants for Thee; Then shall my labors have an end, When I thy joys shall see.

Author: Wiliam Cowper, 1731-1800 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Hear, Lord, the song of praise and prayer Lyrics: 1 Hear, Lord, the song of praise and prayer, In Heav’n Thy dwelling place, From infants, made Thy constant care, [originally, …made the public care] And taught to seek Thy face! 2 Thanks for Thy Word, and for Thy day, And grant us, we implore, Never to waste in sinful play, Thy holy Sabbaths more. 3 Thanks that we hear—but, Oh, impart, To each desires sincere, That we may listen with our heart, And learn, as well as hear. 4 For if vain thoughts our minds engage, Of elder far than we: What hope that at our heedless age, Our minds shall e’er be free? 5 Much hope, if Thou our spirits take Under Thy gracious sway, Who canst make the wisest wiser make And babes as wise as they. 6 Wisdom and bliss Thy Word bestows, A sun that ne’er declines; And be Thy mercies showered on those Who placed us where it shines.
