• [1Jo 1:9] Father, Whose Love We Have Wronged By Transgression

  Father, whose love we have wronged by transgression Christ, who wast nailed for our sins on the tree, Spirit, who givest the grace of repentance; Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Jesu, adorable Savior of sinners, Author of penitence, Hope of our souls, Plentiful Fountain of grace and compassion; Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Thou Who didst empty Thyself of Thy glory, Thou Who Thy parents on earth didst obey, Thou Who for our sake enduredst temptation, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Thou Who hast shown us the love of the Father, Meeting with mercy the prodigal son, Sonship and home to the lost one restoring, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Jesu, who once by the well to the sinner Clearly the sins of her heart did reveal, Leading her gently to faith and repentance, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Thou Who didst enter the house of Zaccheus, Blessing his faith and accepting his love, When for wrongdoing he made restitution, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Christ, with the Twelve the last Passover keeping, Ere on the cross the true Lamb should be slain, Sacrifice offered for all and for ever, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Jesu, alone with the blood-sweat upon Thee, Jesu, in agony bowed to the earth, Jesu, Thy will to the Father resigning, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Jesu, from Annas to Caiaphas hurried, Blindfolded, stricken, and falsely accused, Rudely blasphemed, and declared a blasphemer, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Jesu, denied by Thine eager Apostle, Whom with a look Thou didst straightway recall, Moving him straightway to tears and contrition; Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. Thou Who wast wounded to heal our transgression, Lifted on high to draw all men to Thee, There on the cross in Thy majesty reigning, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. That Thou wouldst draw us to heartfelt contrition, That Thou wouldst help us our sins to confess, That Thou wouldst grant us the grace of amendment, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord. That we may bring forth works meet for repentance, That we give place to the devil no more, That Thou wouldst lead us to sure perseverance, Hear us, we pray Thee, good Lord.

• [1Jo 1:9] He, Whose Confession God Of Old Accepted

  He, whose confession God of old accepted, Whom through the ages all now hold in honor, Gaining his guerdon this day came to enter Heaven’s high portal. God-fearing, watchful, pure of mind and body, Holy and humble, thus did all men find him, While, through his members, to the life immortal Mortal life called him. Thus to the weary, from the life enshrinèd, Potent in virtue, flowed humane compassion; Sick and sore laden, howsoever burdened, There they found healing. So now in chorus, giving God the glory, Raise we our anthem gladly to his honor, That in fair kinship we may all be sharers Here and hereafter. Honor and glory, power and salvation, Be in the highest unto Him Who reigneth Changeless in Heaven over earthly changes Triune, eternal.

• [1Jo 1:9] No, Not Despairingly

  No, not despairingly come I to Thee; No, not distrustingly bend I the knee: Sin hath gone over me, yet is this still my plea, Jesus hath died. Ah! mine iniquity crimson hath been, Infinite, infinite—sin upon sin: Sin of not loving Thee, sin of not trusting Thee— Infinite sin. Lord, I confess to Thee sadly my sin; All I am tell with Thee, all I have been: Purge Thou my sin away, wash Thou my soul this day; Lord, make me clean. Faithful and just art Thou, forgiving all; Loving and kind art Thou when poor ones call: Lord, let the cleansing blood, blood of the Lamb of God, Pass o’er my soul. Then all is peace and light this soul within; Thus shall I walk with Thee, the loved Unseen; Leaning on Thee, my God, guided along the road, Nothing between.

• [1Jo 1:9] O God, To Know That Thou Art Just

  O God, to know that Thou art just Gives hope and peace within; We could not in a mercy trust Which takes no count of sin. I fain would open to Thy sight My utmost wickedness; Set, Lord, in Thy most searching light What I have done amiss. No stern and needless law was Thine— Hard to be understood— But plainly read in every line, Holy, and just, and good. Though basely weak my fallen race, And masterful my foes, I had th’omnipotence of grace To conquer, if I chose. Well did I know the tender Heart I outraged by my sin, Yet with the world I would not part, Nor reign my passions in. My fault it was, O Lord, most high, And not my fate alone: Thou canst not suffer sin, nor I In any way atone. Yet there’s a plea that I may trust— Christ died that I might live! Cleanse me, my God, for Thou art just; Be faithful, and forgive.

• [1Jo 2:1] Come, Let Us Lift Our Joyful Eyes

  Come, let us lift our joyful eyes Up to the courts above, And smile to see our Father there Upon a throne of love. Once ’twas a seat of dreadful wrath, And shot devouring flame; Our God appeared “consuming fire,” And Vengeance was His Name. Rich were the drops of Jesus’ blood That calmed His frowning face, That sprinkled o’er the burning throne, And turned the wrath to grace. Now we may bow before His feet, And venture near the Lord; No fiery cherub guards His seat, Nor double-flaming sword. The peaceful gates of heav’nly bliss Are opened by the Son; High let us raise our notes of praise, And reach th’almighty throne. To Thee ten thousand thanks we bring, Great Advocate on high; And glory to th’eternal King, That lays His fury by.

• [1Jo 2:1] Dread Hath Come On Me, A

  A dread hath come on me, I know not where to flee, My pow’rs can naught avail me; My trembling limbs grow weak, My lips refuse to speak, My heart and senses fail me. For thinking on that sound That once shall pierce the ground And make its slumb’rers tremble, “Arise! the Day of Doom Is come at last—is come! Before the Judge assemble!” Ah God! no tempest’s shock That cleaves the solid rock Could make my spirit shiver As doth that awful tone; Were my heart steel or stone ’Twould hear that voice and quiver. I eat, or wake, or sleep, I talk, or smile, or weep, Yet still that voice of thunder Is sounding through my heart— “Forget not what thou art, The doom thou liest under!” For daily do I see How many deaths there be, How swiftly all things wither; How sickness fills the grave, Or fire, or sword, or wave Is sweeping thousands thither. My turn will soon be here, The end is drawing near, I hear its warning plainly; Death knocketh at my door And tells me all is o’er, And I would fly him vainly. Ah! who in this my strait Will be mine Advocate? Will all things leave me friendless? My wealth and power are dust, This Judge is ever just, His righteous doom is endless. Lord Jesus Christ! ’tis Thou Alone canst help me now, But ’twas for this Thou camest, To save us in this hour— Then show Thy mercy’s power, For they are safe Thou claimest. Speak Thou for me! Thou art The refuge of my heart; With gladness let me hear Thee; Bid me to Thee ascend, Where praise shall never end, And love shall aye be near Thee.

  Jesus, my Advocate above, My Friend before the throne of love, If now for me prevails Thy prayer, If now I find Thee pleading there, If Thou the secret wish convey, And sweetly prompt my heart to pray; Hear, and my weak petitions join, Almighty Advocate, to Thine. Fain would I know my utmost ill, And groan my nature’s weight to feel, To feel the clouds that round me roll, The night that hangs upon my soul, The darkness of my carnal mind, My will perverse, my passions blind, Scattered o’er all the earth abroad, Immeasurably far from God. Jesus, my heart’s desire obtain! My earnest suit present, and gain; My fulness of corruption show, The knowledge of myself bestow; A deeper displacence at sin, A sharper sense of hell within, A stronger struggling to get free, A keener appetite for Thee. O sovereign Love, to Thee I cry, Give me Thyself, or else I die! Save me from death, from hell set free, Death, hell, are but the want of Thee. Quickened by Thy imparted flame, Saved, when possessed of Thee, I am; My life, my only heaven Thou art, O might I feel Thee in my heart!

When weary in the Christian race, Far off appears my resting place, And, fainting, I mistrust Thy grace, Then, Savior, plead for me. When I have erred and gone astray, Afar from Thine and wisdom’s way, And see no glimmering, guiding ray, Still, Savior, plead for me. When Satan, by my sins made bold, Strives from Thy cross to loose my hold, Then with Thy pitying arms infold, And plead, O plead for me. And when my dying hour draws near, Darkened with anguish, guilt, and fear, Then to my fainting sight appear, Pleading in Heav’n for me. When the full light of heavenly day Reveals my sins in dread array, Say Thou hast washed them all away; O say, Thou plead’st for me!

  When at Thy footstool, Lord, I bend, And plead with Thee for mercy there, Think of the sinner’s dying Friend, And for His sake receive my prayer. O think not of my shame and guilt, My thousand stains of deepest dye; Think of the blood which Jesus spilt, And let that blood my pardon buy. Think, Lord, how I am still Thine own, The trembling creature of Thy hand; Think how my heart to sin is prone, And what temptations round me stand. O think upon Thy holy Word, And every plighted promise there; How prayer should evermore be heard, And how Thy glory is to spare. O think not of my doubts and fears, My strivings with Thy grace divine; Think upon Jesus’ woes and tears, And let His merits stand for mine. Thine eyes, Thine ear, they are not dull; Thine arm can never shortened be; Behold me here; my heart is full; Behold, and spare, and succor me.
