A refuge for sinners the Gospel makes known,
‘Tis found in the merits of Jesus alone;
The weary, the tempted, the burdened of sin
Are never excluded from entering in.
This refuge for sinners God’s love did ordain
In Jesus, the Lamb, from eternity slain;
In Christ the Redeemer Who lived and Who died,
God’s law and His justice are now satisfied.
Should conscience accuse us, as often it may,
The blood of our Saviour has put sin away;
In Jesus, our Surety, the sinner can view
A city of refuge and righteousness too.
(Tune: “How Firm A Foundation” )

Mercy is welcome news indeed
To those that guilty stand;
Wretches, that feel what help they need,
Will bless the helping hand.
We all have sinned against our God,
Exception none can boast;
But he that feels the heaviest load
Will prize forgiveness most.
No reckoning can we rightly keep,
For who the sums can know?
Some souls are fifty pieces deep,
And some five hundred owe.
But let our debts be what they may,
However great or small,
As soon as we have naught to pay,
Our Lord forgives us all.
‘Tis perfect poverty alone
That sets the soul at large;
While we can call one mite our own,
We have no full discharge.
This past Sunday, pastor Tom Horn preached two great messages. The first was entitled “The Sea of Life” and came from Acts 27. The second came from Romans 5:12-21 and was entitled “Reigning Grace.”

The Maker of the universe
As man for man was made a curse.
The claims of law which He had made
Unto the uttermost He paid.
His holy fingers made the bough
Which grew the thorns that crowned His brow.
The nails that pierced His hands were mined
In secret places He designed.
He made the forest whence there sprung
The tree on which His body hung.
He died upon a cross of wood,
Yet made the hill on which it stood.
The sky that darkened o’er His head
By Him above the earth was spread.
The sun that hid from Him its face
By His decree was poised in space.
The spear which spilled His precious blood
Was tempered in the fires of God.
The grave in which His form was laid
Was hewn in rocks His hands had made.
The throne on which He now appears
Was His for everlasting years.
But a new glory crowns His brow,
And every knee to Him shall bow.
by Frederick William Pitt ( 1859-1943 )

Glory to God on High!
Let earth to heav’n reply,
“Praise ye His name!
Angels His love adore,
Who all our sorrow bore,
And saints cry evermore,
”WORTHY THE LAMB!”
All they around the throne
Cheerfully join in one,
praising His name!
We who have known His blood,
Sealing our peace with God,
Sound His dear name abroad,
”WORTHY THE LAMB!”
Though we must change our place,
Yet will we never cease,
praising His name!
To Him we’ll tribute bring,
Hail Him our sovereign King,
And without ceasing sing,
“WORTHY THE LAMB!”
