about

Article X - The forgiveness of sins.
--
words: Samuel J. Stone
music: Nathan Partain, 2010

lyrics

Weary of earth and laden with my sin,
I look at Heav’n and long to enter in,
But there no evil thing may find a home,
And yet I hear a Voice that bids me " Come."

So vile am I, how dare I hope to stand,
In the pure glory of that Holy Land
Before the whiteness of that Throne appear,
Yet there are Hands stretched out to draw me near.

Though while I fain would tread the Heav’nly Way, Seems evil ever with me day by day;
Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall,
"Repent, confess, and thou art loosed from all."

Chorus:
It is the voice of, It is the voice of Jesus that I hear!
His are the Hands stretched,
His are the Hands stretched out to draw me near,
And His the Blood that,
And His the Blood that can for all atone,
And make me faultless there before the throne.

'Twas He Who found me on the deathly wild,
And made me heir of Heav’n, the Father's child,
And day by day, whereby my soul will live,
Giveth His grace of pardon, and will give.

O great Absolver! grant my soul to wear,
The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer,
That in the Father's courts my glorious dress,
May be the garment of Thy righteousness.

(Chorus)

Yea, Thou wil speak for me, O Righteous Lord!
All merits Thine, but mine the great reward;
Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown, Mine the life won and Thine the life laid down!

Nought can I bring, dear Lord, for all I owe,
Yet let my full heart, what it can, bestow;
Like that sweet nard, let my devotion prove,
Greatly forgiven, how I greatly love.

(Chorus)
