From “The Valley of Vision” | Wound My Heart
Posted: 11.10.2012 Filed under: Book: The Valley of Vision | Tags: Book: The Valley of Vision, conviction, hope, repentance, valley of vision Leave a commentadapted from two prayers found in “The Valley of Vision“
I have acted as if I hated thee
Contrived to tempt thee to the uttermost
To wear out thy patience
I have often loved darkness,
observed lying vanities,
forsaken thy given mercies,
trampled underfoot thy beloved Son – by despising his death by fearing its efficacy for my salvation,
mocked thy providences,
flattered thee with my lips,
broken thy covenant.
Lead me to repentance, and save me from despair
Cast me not into destruction,
Drive me not from thy presence,
But wound my heart that it may be healed;
Break it that thine own hand may make it whole.
And whatever cross I am required to bear,
Let me see him carrying a heavier.

Charitie Lees Smith: Before the Throne of God Above | Hymn
Posted: 03.21.2012 Filed under: Hymn | Tags: Before the Throne of God Above, Charitie Lees Smith, hymn Leave a commentBefore the throne of God above
I have a strong and perfect plea.
A great High Priest whose name is Love
Who ever lives and pleads for me.
My name is graven on His hands,
My name is written on His heart.
I know that while in Heaven He stands
No tongue can bid me thence depart.
When Satan tempts me to despair
And tells me of the guilt within,
Upward I look and see Him there
Who made an end of all my sin.
Because the sinless Savior died
My sinful soul is counted free.
For God the just is satisfied
To look on Him and pardon me.
Behold Him there the risen Lamb,
My perfect spotless righteousness,
The great unchangeable I AM,
The King of glory and of grace,
One in Himself I cannot die.
My soul is purchased by His blood,
My life is hid with Christ on high,
With Christ my Saviour and my God!
