3 Let cares like a wild deluge come, DIVINE GOODNESS IN REDEMPTION. Hymn 209. C. M. BEHOLD the Saviour of mankind Nail'd to the shameful tree: How vast the love that him inclin'd 2 Hark, how he groans! while nature shakes, 3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid, See where he bows his sacred head! 4 But soon he'll break death's envious chain, And in full glory shine; O Lamb of God! was ever pain, Hymn 210. P. M. LOVE divine! what hast thou done! The Father's coeternal Son, Bore all my sins upon the tree: Th' immortal God for me hath died: My Lord, my Love is crucified. 2 Behold him, all ye that pass by, The bleeding Prince of life and peace! To bring us rebels back to God: Ye all are bought with Jesu's blood; And gladly catch the healing stream: Hymn 211. L. M. F him who did salvation bring 1OF him who diedervank and sing; Arise, ye guilty, he'll forgive; 2 Ask but his grace, and lo, 'tis given! 3 To shame our sins he blush'd in blood, Let all the world fall down and know, 'That none but God such love can show. 4 'Tis thee I love, for thee alone I shed my tears and make my moan! Where'er I am, where'er I move, I meet the object of my love. 5 Insatiate to this spring I fly; I drink, and yet am ever dry; Ah! who against thy charms is proof? Ah! who that loves can love enough? Hymn 212. P. M. ALL ye that pass by, to Jesus draw nigh; To you die? is it nothing that Jesus should Your ransom and peace, your surety he is, atone; [Son; The Father hath punish'd for you his dear The Lord, in the day of his anger, did lay Your sins on the Lamb, and he bore them away. 3 He answer'd for all, O come at his call, And low at his cross, with astonishment fall. But lift up your eyes, at Jesus's cries, Impassive he suffers, immortal he dies. 4 He dies to atone for sins not his own, Your debt he hath paid, and your work he hath done: Ye all may receive the peace he did leave, Who made intercession, "My Father, forgive!" 5 For you and for me he pray'd on the tree; His prayer is accepted, the sinner is free. The sinner am I-who on Jesus rely, And come for the pardon God cannot deny. 6 My pardon I claim; for a sinner I am, A sinner believing in Jesus's name; He purchas'd the grace, which now I embrace; {place! O Father, thou know'st he hath died in my 7 His death is my plea, my Advocate see, And hear the blood speak that hath answer'd for me. 1 Acquitted I was, when he bled on the cross, cause. Hymn 213. L. M. HE E dies, the Friend of sinners dies! A sudden trembling shakes the ground! And shout him welcome to the skies. 3 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell, How high your great Deliv'rer reigns. 1 Sing how he spoil'd the hosts of hell, And led the monster death in chains! Say "Live for ever, wondrous King! "Born to redeem and strong to save!" Then ask the monster, "Where's thy sting? "And where's thy vict'ry, boasting grave?” Hymn 214. C. M. PLUNG'D in a gulf of dark despair, We wretched sinners lay, Without one cheering beam of hope, 2 With pitying eyes the Prince of grace He saw, and (O amazing love!) 3 Down from the shining seats above 4 O! for this love let rocks and hills 5 Angels, assist our mighty joys, 1 But when you raise your highest notes, Hymn 215. P. M. GOD of all grace, thy goodness we praise; Thy Son thou hast given to die in our place! With joy we approve the design of thy love; "Tis a wonder on earth, and a wonder above. |
