[Luk 15:17] Afflictions, Though They Seem Severe
Afflictions, though they seem severe;
In mercy oft are sent;
They stopped the prodigal’s career,
And forced him to repent.Although he no relentings felt
Till he had spent his store;
His stubborn heart began to melt
When famine pinched him sore.“What have I gained by sin, he said,
But hunger, shame, and fear;
My father’s house abounds with bread,
While I am starving here.I’ll go, and tell him all I’ve done,
And fall before his face
Unworthy to be called his son,
I’ll seek a servant’s place.”His father saw him coming back,
He saw, and ran, and smiled;
And threw his arms around the neck
Of his rebellious child.“Father, I’ve sinned—but O forgive!”
I’ve heard enough, he said,
Rejoice my house, my son’s alive,
For whom I mourned as dead.Now let the fatted calf be slain,
And spread the news around;
My son was dead, but lives again,
Was lost, but now is found.’Tis thus the Lord His love reveals,
To call poor sinners home;
More than a father’s love He feels,
And welcomes all that come.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Are you coming home tonight?Refrain

[Luk 15:18] Last Prayer, A
Father, I scarcely dare to pray,
So clear I see, now it is done,
How I have wasted half my day,
And left my work but just begun.
So clear I see that things I thought
Were right or harmless were a sin;
So clear I see that I have sought,
Unconscious, selfish aims to win.So clear I see that I have hurt
The souls I might have helped to save;
That I have slothful been, inert,
Deaf to the calls Thy leaders gave.
In outskirts of Thy kingdoms vast
Father, the humblest spot give me;
Set me the lowliest task Thou hast,
Let me repentant work for Thee.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

When I reach my Father’s door!

Lord, to Thee I make confession;

Lord, I tremble at Thy terrors.Yet, though conscience’s voice appall me,
Father, I will seek Thy face;

People of the living God,

Paths of sin and sorrow trod,

Turns a fugitive unblest;
Brethren, where your altar burns,
Oh, receive me into rest.Lonely I no longer roam
Like the cloud, the wind, the wave;
Where you dwell shall be my home,
Where you die shall be my grave;
Mine the God Whom you adore;
Your Redeemer shall be mine;
Earth can fill my soul no more—
Every idol I resign.Tell me not of gain and loss,
Ease, enjoyment, pomp, and pow’r;
Welcome poverty and cross,
Shame reproach, affliction’s hour.

Light Thy burden now to me.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Pilgrim, burdened with thy sin,
Come the way to Zion’s gate:

Weep—He loves the mourner’s tears;
Watch, for saving grace is nigh;
Wait, till heavenly light appears.Hark, it is the Bridegroom’s voice:
“Welcome, pilgrim to thy rest!”
Now within the gate rejoice,
Safe, and sealed, and bought, and blest
Safe, from all the lures of vice;
Sealed, by signs the chosen know;
Bought by love, and life the price;
Blest, the mighty debt to owe.Holy pilgrim, what for thee
In a world like this remain?
From thy guarded breast shall flee
Fear, and shame, and doubt, and pain;
Fear, the hope of Heav’n shall fly;
Shame, from glory’s view retire;
Doubt, in certain rapture die;
Pain, in endless bliss expire.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Worthy no more to be called a son,
Hoping my Father His child may own,

Now all its treasures I’ve thrown away,
