• [Rom 5:8] Gospel Echoes

  The Gospel message sent— Is echoed back again, From lips in prayer and praise, And this the sweet refrain: That Jesus died for me— Dear Lamb of Calvary. The echo from each heart, In answer to the call— Is “Here am I, O Lord— Lo! at Thy feet I fall; Thou Lamb of Calvary, I trust alone in Thee.” Its echoing strains are heard From palace and from cot— From lips of age and youth— His blood can cleanse each spot; Dear Lamb of Calvary, I come, I come to Thee. Oh, let the Gospel sound In all the land abroad, And send the echo round, In honor of our Lord— The Lamb of Calvary, Has died to ransom Thee.

• [Rom 5:8] He Just Put Himself In My Place

  Shall I tell you what brought me to Jesus, What caused me to seek His blessèd face? It was this, that, to save and to cleanse me, He just put Himself in my place. Refrain He just put Himself in my place (O bless His Name!) He just put Himself in my place (O bless His Name!) This is the Gospel story, To Jesus the glory, He just put Himself in my place. O, He felt all my load in the garden, My guilt He did carry on the tree; I was lost, and condemned unto judgment, But my Lord Himself died for me. Refrain Soon He’s coming again from the glory, The prophets of God on this agree; And till then this to others I’m telling, That for them He died as for me. Refrain

• [Rom 5:8] How Bitter-sweet The Mystery

  How bitter-sweet the mystery: Christ Jesus crucified. Yet, He is not the guilty one, No sin, though still He dies. Hung on a cross of rugged wood, Received He from God’s hand, The penalty, the wage of sin, Deserved by wicked man. O! Even more hope we shall find Beyond the death He died. Consider this, that from the grave He rose and is alive. For to this end Christ Jesus died Was raised and lives again; That He might be the Lord of both The dead and the living! What glorious day we long await When Christ His church shall raise. Since then for all eternity The Risen One we’ll praise. God demonstrates His love in this: While we were yet in sin, Christ Jesus died on our behalf. We’re saved from wrath through Him! Now sinner, hear! To His grace turn! Repent, and be forgiv’n— United with Him in His death; Alive with Him now ris’n.

• [Rom 5:8] I Love To Think Of Jesus

  I love to think of Jesus, who else could it be, Who could come down from Heav’n to save a soul like me? To think of Him does not repay the debt I owe, I’ll do my best my gratitude to show. Refrain I love to think of Jesus and His love for me; My soul is lost in wonder that such love could be; I’ve known the love of mother, Of sister, friend and brother, Like Jesus there’s no other, He’s more than all to me. I love to think that He has given me a part In pardon that He purchased with a broken heart; And oft my eyes are filled with tears as I recall What He has done for me, and for us all. Refrain I love to think of Jesus when I am distressed, To think upon His promise brings a blissful rest; In sorrow, pain and anguish He is near I know, It is no wonder that I love Him so. Refrain I love to think of Him when tears of sorrow fall, To know that He has suffered and He knows it all; It gives me strength to bear my burden nor complain, I never yet have called to Him in vain.

  O Love divine, what hast thou done! The immortal God hath died for me! The Father’s co-eternal Son Bore all my sins upon the tree. Th’immortal God for me hath died: My Lord, my Love, is crucified! Is crucified for me and you, To bring us rebels back to God. Believe, believe the record true, Ye all are bought with Jesus’ blood. Pardon for all flows from His side: My Lord, my Love, is crucified!

  Savior, Thy dying love Thou gavest me. Nor should I aught withhold, dear Lord, from Thee. In love my soul would bow, my heart fulfill its vow, Some offering bring Thee now, something for Thee. O’er the blest mercy seat, pleading for me, My feeble faith looks up, Jesus, to Thee. Help me the cross to bear, Thy wondrous love declare, Some song to raise, or prayer, something for Thee. Give me a faithful heart, likeness to Thee. That each departing day henceforth may see Some work of love begun, some deed of kindness done, Some wanderer sought and won, something for Thee. All that I am and have, Thy gifts so free, In joy, in grief, through life, O Lord, for Thee! And when Thy face I see, my ransomed soul shall be Through all eternity, something for Thee.

• [Rom 5:8] Thy Works, Not Mine, O Christ

  Thy works, not mine, O Christ, speak gladness to this heart; They tell me all is done; they bid my fear depart. To whom, save Thee, who canst alone For sin atone, Lord, shall I flee? Thy pains, not mine, O Christ, upon the shameful tree, Have paid the law’s full price and purchased peace for me. To whom, save Thee, who canst alone For sin atone, Lord, shall I flee? Thy cross, not mine, O Christ, has borne the awful load Of sins that none in Heav’n or earth could bear but God. To whom, save Thee, who canst alone For sin atone, Lord, shall I flee? Thy death, not mine, O Christ, has paid the ransom due; Ten thousand deaths like mine would have been all too few. To whom, save Thee, who canst alone For sin atone, Lord, shall I flee? Thy righteousness, O Christ, alone can cover me: No righteousness avails save that which is of Thee. To whom, save Thee, who canst alone For sin atone, Lord, shall I flee?

• [Rom 5:8] When Time Seems Short And Death Is Near

  When time seems short, and death is near, And I am pressed by doubt and fear, And sins, an overflowing tide, Assail my peace on every side, This thought my refuge still shall be, I know my Savior died for me. His name is Jesus, and He died— For guilty sinners crucified; Content to die, that He might win Their ransom from the death of sin. No sinner worse than I can be, Therefore I know He died for me. If grace were bought, I could not buy; If grace were coined, no wealth have I; By grace alone I draw my breath, Held up from everlasting death. Yet since I know His grace is free, I know the Savior died for me. I read God’s holy Word, and find Great truths which far transcend my mind And little do I know beside Of thought so high and deep and wide. This is my best theology— I know the Savior died for me. My faith is weak, but ’tis Thy gift; Thou canst my helpless soul uplift, And say, “Thy bonds of death are riv’n, Thy sins by Me are all forgiv’n, And thou shalt live, from guilt set free; For I, thy Savior, died for thee.”

Romans 8:12

• [Rom 8:12] When This Passing World Is Done

  When this passing world is done, When has sunk yon glaring sun, When we stand with Christ in glory, Looking o’er life’s finished story, Then, Lord, shall I fully know— Not till then—how much I owe. When I hear the wicked call, On the rocks and hills to fall, When I see them start and shrink On the fiery deluge brink, Then, Lord, shall I fully know— Not till then—how much I owe. When I stand before the throne, Dressed in beauty not my own, When I see Thee as Thou art, Love Thee with unsinning heart, Then Lord, shall I fully know— Not till then—how much I owe. When the praise of Heav’n I hear, Loud as thunders to the ear, Loud as many waters’ noise, Sweet as harp’s melodious voice, Then, Lord, shall I fully know— Not till then—how much I owe. Even on earth, as through a glass Darkly, let Thy glory pass, Make forgiveness feel so sweet, Make Thy Spirit’s help so meet, Even on earth, Lord, make me know Something of how much I owe. Chosen not for good in me, Wakened up from wrath to flee, Hidden in the Savior’s side, By the Spirit sanctified, Teach me, Lord, on earth to show, By my love, how much I owe. Oft I walk beneath the cloud, Dark, as midnight’s gloomy shroud; But, when fear is at the height, Jesus comes, and all is light; Blessed Jesus! bid me show Doubting saints how much I owe. When in flowery paths I tread, Oft by sin I’m captive led; Oft I fall—but still arise— The Spirit comes—the tempter flies; Blessed Spirit! bid me show Weary sinners all I owe. Oft the nights of sorrow reign— Weeping, sickness, sighing, pain; But a night Thine anger burns— Morning comes and joy returns; God of comforts! bid me show To Thy poor, how much I owe.

  He Who suns and worlds upholdeth Lends us His upholding hand; He the ages Who unfoldeth Doth our times and ways command. God is for us, God is for us; In His strength and stay we stand. He Who sage and seer instructed Will not keep from us His lore; Who those ancient saints conducted Hath not giv’n His guiding o’er. God is for us, God is for us; Helpful now as heretofore. ’Gainst oppression forth He sends us; His the cause of truth and right; With His own great host He binds us, Lendeth us of His own might; God is for us, God is for us; Brings to happy end the fight. Onward, upward doth He beckon; Onward, upward would we press; As His own our burdens reckon, As our own His strength possess. God is for us, God is for us; God, our Helper, still we bless.

• [Rom 8:31] If God Himself Be For Me

  If God Himself be for me, I may a host defy, For when I pray, before me my foes confounded fly. If Christ, the Head, befriend me, if God be my support, The mischief they intend me shall quickly come to naught. I build on this foundation, that Jesus and His blood Alone are my salvation, the true eternal good; Without Him, all that pleases is valueless on earth: The gifts I owe to Jesus alone my love are worth. His Holy Spirit dwelleth within my willing heart, Tames it when it rebelleth, and soothes the keenest smart. He crowns His work with blessing, and helpeth me to cry “My Father!” without ceasing to Him Who reigns on high. To mine His Spirit speaketh sweet words of soothing power, How God to Him that seeketh for rest, hath rest in store; How God Himself prepareth my heritage and lot, And though my body weareth, my Heav’n shall fail me not.

• [Rom 8:31] Let Christian Faith And Hope Dispel

  Let Christian faith and hope dispel The fears of guilt and woe; The Lord Almighty is our Friend, And who can prove a foe? The Savior died, but rose again Triumphant from the grave: And pleads our cause at God’s right hand, Omnipotent to save. Who then can e’er divide us more From Jesus and His love, Or break the sacred chain that binds The earth to Heav’n above? Let troubles rise, and terrors frown, And days of darkness fall; Through Him all dangers we’ll defy, And more than conquer all. Nor death, nor life, nor earth, nor hell, Nor time’s destroying sway Can e’er efface us from His heart Or make His love decay. Each future period that will bless As it has blessed the past; He loved us from the first of time, He loves us to the last.

Full well do ye know The foe must be met, Full well do ye feel That Satan has set His powers of darkness In battle array; But those who are for you Are stronger than they.

• [Rom 8:31] What Shall We Say?

  What shall we say? If God indeed is for us, Who then can ever come against our souls? God did not spare His only Son, our Savior, But gave Him up that we might be made whole. How will He not, along with Christ our Lord, Give us all things by His free grace? God will indeed, along with Christ our Lord, Give us all things by His free grace. Now who will bring a charge against God’s chosen? God is the One Who justifies each man. Who can condemn? Christ Jesus died for sinners, Was raised to life, and sits at God’s right hand. From there He always intercedes for us; None can condemn—we’re justified. He intercedes and brings our case to God; None can condemn—we’re justified. Who then shall cleave us from the love of Jesus? We who face death like sheep within their pen. Shall trouble, hardship, persecution, hunger? Shall nakedness or danger or armed men? No, in all things we’re more than conquerors Through Him Who loved us to the death. In all these things, we’re more than conquerors Through Him Who loved us to the death. I am convinced there’s naught in all creation Can come between us and God’s love so vast. Not death nor life, angels nor demon powers, Things present now, nor what is yet to pass. Nothing can separate us from God’s love That comes to us through Christ our Lord! Nothing can separate us from God’s love That comes to us through Christ our Lord!
