Romans 7:25

• [Rom 7:25] I Do Not Come Because My Soul

  I do not come because my soul Is free from sin and pure and whole And worthy of Thy grace; I do not speak to Thee because I’ve ever justly kept Thy laws And dare to meet Thy face. I know that sin and guilt combine To reign o’er every thought of mine And turn from good to ill; I know that, when I try to be Upright and just and true to Thee, I am a sinner still. I know that often when I strive To keep a spark of love alive For Thee, the powers within Leap up in unsubmissive might And oft benumb my sense of right And pull me back to sin. I know that, though in doing good I spend my life, I never could Atone for all I’ve done; But though my sins are black as night, I dare to come before Thy sight Because I trust Thy Son. In Him alone my trust I place, Come boldly to Thy throne of grace, And there commune with Thee. Salvation sure, O Lord, is mine, And, all unworthy, I am Thine, For Jesus died for me.

Romans 13:11

• [Rom 13:11] We Are Nearing

  We are drifting towards the waters Of a calm and tranquil sea, And we soon shall anchor safely In that port where we should be. Refrain We are nearing, we are nearing, Nearing the golden strand; We are nearing, we are nearing, Nearing the soul’s bright land. We are drifting from the sorrows That for us will soon be o’er; We are drifting from the trials That will vex the heart no more. Refrain We are drifting from the shadows Into pure and perfect day; ’Tis the Savior guides our vessel, And His presence cheers our way. Refrain Oh, the morning and the meeting, When our happy souls shall rest, By the fount of life eternal, With the ransomed ever blest. Refrain
