HYMNS SELECTED
And feels each tempted member’s pains; For our affliction’s his.
5
Come, then, repenting sinner, come; Approach with humble faith; Owe what thou wilt, the total sum Is cancelled by his death.
6
His blood can cleanse the blackest soul, And wash our guilt away; He will present us sound and whole, In that tremendous day.
24 C.M. Isaac Watts
JOSEPH HART 1759
The Witnessing and Sealing Spirit. Rom. 8. 14, 16 1 Why should the children of a King Go mourning all their days? Great Comforter! descend and bring Some tokens of thy grace. 2
Dost thou not dwell in all the saints, And seal them heirs of heaven? When wilt thou banish my complaints, And show my sins forgiven?
3 Assure my conscience of her part In the Redeemer’s blood; And bear thy witness with my heart, That I am born of God. 4 Thou art the earnest of his love, The pledge of joys to come; And thy soft wings, celestial Dove, Will safe convey me home.
ISAAC WATTS 1674
