Break forth, break forth

1. Break forth, break forth, o joyful heart, 
and make His goodness known, 
who all thy life, though undeserved, 
such love to thee has shown. 
Break forth, break forth, o joyful heart, 
no longer silent be; 
break forth in grateful praise to him 
who came to ransom Thee. 

2. ’Twas Jesus sought my wand’ring soul, 
and with a shepherd’s care 
he brought me kindly to his fold, 
and still protects me there. 
He is my Advocate with God, 
my Savior and my Friend, 
his mercies new with every morn 
like balmy showers descend.

3. My soul shall magnify the Lord, 
my voice his love proclaim, 
and every power within me join 
to bless and praise his Name. 
Break forth, break forth, o joyful heart, 
no longer silent be; 
break forth in grateful praise to him 
who came to ransom Thee. 

One is kind above all others

1. One is kind above all others, 
o how He loves! 
His is love beyond a brother’s; 
o how He loves! 
Earthly friends may fall and leave thee, 
one day kind, the next day grieve thee; 
but this friend will ne’er deceive thee; 
o how He loves! 

2. ’Tis eternal life to know Him, 
o how He loves! 
Think, oh think, how much we owe Him, 
o how He loves! 
With His precious blood He bought us, 
in the wilderness He sought us 
to His fold He safely brought us, 
o how He loves! 

3. Blessèd Jesus! wouldst thou know Him? 
O how He loves! 
Give thine heart, thine all unto Him; 
o how He loves! 
Is it sin that pains or grieves thee, 
unbelief or trials seize thee? 
Jesus can from all release thee; 
o how He loves! 

4. Love this friend: He longs to save thee; 
o how He loves! 
All through life He will not leave thee; 
o how He loves! 
Think no more of friendships hollow; 
take His easy yoke and follow; 
Jesus carries all thy sorrow; 
o how He loves! 

5. All thy sins shall be forgiven; 
o how He loves! 
Backward shall thy foes be driven; 
o how He loves! 
Best of blessings He’ll provide thee; 
naught but good shall e’er betide thee; 
safe to glory He will guide thee; 
o how He loves!

Saviour, hear me while before thy feet

Mel. efter ca 2 minuter:




1. Saviour, hear me while before thy feet 
I the record of my sins repeat. 
Stained with guilt, myself abhorring, 
filled with grief, my soul outpouring; 
canst thou still in mercy think of me, 
stoop to set my shackled spirit free, 
raise my sinking heart and bid me be 
Thy child once more? 
Is there grace my every debt to pay, 
blood to wash my every sin away, 
power to keep me spotless day by day, 
for me, for me? 

2. All the memories of deeds gone by 
rise within me and thy power defy; 
with a deathly chill ensnaring, 
they would leave my soul despairing. 
Saviour, take my hand, I cannot tell 
how to stem the tides that round me swell, 
how to ease my conscience, or to quell 
my flaming heart. 
Is there grace...

3. Yet why should I fear? Hast thou not died 
that no seeking soul should be denied? 
To that heart, its sins confessing, 
canst thou fail to give a blessing? 
By the love and pity thou hast shown, 
by the blood that did for me atone, 
boldly will I kneel before thy throne, 
a pleading soul.
Is there grace...

4. All the rivers of thy grace I claim, 
over every promise write my name; 
as I am I come, believing, 
as thou art thou dost receiving, 
bid me rise a free and pardoned slave, 
master o'er my sin, the world, the grave, 
charging me to preach thy power to save 
yo sinbound souls.
Grace there is my every debt to pay, 
blood to wash my every sin away, 
power to keep me spotless day by day, 
for me, for me!
