I can't refuse, I cannot add a thing. <BR/><BR/>I am just like Lazarus, and I can hear your voice. Open up my eyes and walk to you. <BR/><BR/>Because I have no choice. <BR/><BR/>I'm so thankful, that I'm incapable, of doing any good on my own.Matthew Woodsidehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05248527695183014321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17892009.post-1156803147000756052006-08-28T17:12:00.000-05:002006-08-28T17:12:00.000-05:00"When I Survey the Wonderous Cross" - Isaac Watts ..."When I Survey the Wonderous Cross" - Isaac Watts (actually anything by Watts)<BR/><BR/>Also, this classic by Josiah Conder is one of my favorites. Its packed with deep theology and sums up the Doctrines of Grace as well as any song I've ever heard:<BR/><BR/>My Lord, I did not choose you, for that could never be,<BR/>My heart would still refuse you, had you not chosen me.<BR/><BR/>You took the sin that stained me, You cleansed me, made me new; Of old You have ordained me, that I should live with You.<BR/><BR/>Unless Your Grace had called me and taught my quickened mind, The world would have enthralled me, to heavenly glories blind. <BR/><BR/>My heart knows none above You, for Your rich grace I thirst, I know that if I love You, You must have loved me first!<BR/><BR/>Your love has been forever, from all eternity, Its drawing power never shall be withdrawn from me. <BR/><BR/>I know that I am kept by the strength of love Divine, And when I wake in Heaven, all glory shall be Thine.<BR/> -Josiah Conder (1789-1855)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17892009.post-1156793535375525252006-08-28T14:32:00.000-05:002006-08-28T14:32:00.000-05:00Count Nicolas Ludwig von Zinzendorf translated by...Count Nicolas Ludwig von Zinzendorf <BR/>translated by John Wesley<BR/><BR/>Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness<BR/>My beauty are, my glorious dress;<BR/>'Midst flaming worlds, in these arrayed,<BR/>With joy shall I lift up my head.<BR/><BR/>Bold shall I stand in Thy great day;<BR/>For who aught to my charge shall lay?<BR/>Fully absolved through these I am<BR/>From sin and fear, from guilt and shame.<BR/><BR/>The holy, meek, unspotted Lamb,<BR/>Who from the Father's bosom came,<BR/>Who died for me, e'en me to atone,<BR/>Now for my Lord and God I own.<BR/><BR/>Lord, I believe Thy precious blood,<BR/>Which, at the mercy seat of God,<BR/>Forever doth for sinners plead,<BR/>For me, e'en for my soul, was shed.<BR/><BR/>Lord, I believe were sinners more<BR/>Than sands upon the ocean shore,<BR/>Thou hast for all a ransom paid,<BR/>For all a full atonement made.<BR/><BR/>When from the dust of death I rise<BR/>To claim my mansion in the skies,<BR/>Ev'n then this shall be all my plea,<BR/>Jesus hath lived, hath died, for me.<BR/><BR/>Jesus, the endless praise to Thee,<BR/>Whose boundless mercy hath for me—<BR/>For me a full atonement made,<BR/>An everlasting ransom paid.<BR/><BR/>O let the dead now hear Thy voice;<BR/>Now bid Thy banished ones rejoice;<BR/>Their beauty this, their glorious dress,<BR/>Jesus, Thy blood and righteousness.Anthonyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16605860348578576371noreply@blogger.com
