389 S. M. Thus it becometh us. Matt. 3:15. With willing hearts we tread The path the Saviour trod; We love th’ example of our Head, The glorious Lamb of God. 2 On thee, on thee alone, Our hope and faith rely; O thou who didst for sin atone, Who didst for sinners die. 3 We trust thy sacrifice, To thy dear cross we flee; O, may we die to sin, and rise To life and bliss in thee. 390 7s, 6 lines. Lord, save me. Matt. 14:30. Jesus, Lamb of God, for me Thou, the Lord of life, didst die; Whither—whither, but to thee, Can a trembling sinner fly? Death’s dark waters o’er me roll, Save, O save, my sinking soul! 2 Never bowed a martyred head, Weighed with equal sorrow down; Never blood so rich was shed, Never king wore such a crown! To thy cross and sacrifice, Faith now lifts her tearful eyes. 3 All my soul, by love subdued, Melts in deep contrition there; By thy mighty grace renewed, New-born hope forbids despair; Lord, thou canst my guilt forgive, Thou hast bid me look and live. 4 While with broken heart I kneel, Sinks the inward storm to rest; Life—immortal life—I feel Kindled in my throbbing breast; Thine—for ever thine—I am, Glory to the bleeding Lamb! 391 7s. And hath washed us from our sins, etc. Rev. 1:5. Jesus, to thy wounds I fly; Purge my sins of deepest dye; Lamb of God, for sinners slain, Wash away my crimson stain. 2 Purge me in that sacred flood, In that fountain of thy blood; Then thy Father’s eye shall see Not a spot of guilt in me. 392 7s, 6 lines. He is our peace. Eph. 2:14. Weary souls that wander wide From the central point of bliss, Turn to Jesus crucified; Fly to those dear wounds of his; Sink into the purple flood, Rise into the life of God. 2 Find in Christ the way of peace Peace unspeakable, unknown; By his pain he gives you ease, Life, by his expiring groan; Rise, exalted by his fall; Find in Christ your all in all. 3 O believe the record true, God to you his Son hath given! You may now be happy too; Find on earth the life of heaven; Live the life of heaven above, All the life of glorious love. 393 8s & 7s. Hear and obey. Humble souls, who seek salvation Through the Lamb’s redeeming blood, Hear the voice of revelation; Tread the path that Jesus trod.
