616. I HEAR THY WELCOME VOICE
YO ESCUCHO BUEN JESUS
Psalm 51 .7 CONSECRATION / Psalm 65.3 REVIVAL
I hear Thy welcome voice, thy loving tender voice,
That from the height of Calvary, bids every sinner come;
I have sinned, my Lord! I'm ashamed and vile!
Make me thine in every way, the object of thy love!
2
Thy offer is to cleanse and blot out sinner's shame,
If weeping my heart comes to thee, to seek thy charity;
I have sinned, my Lord! Take mercy on me!
Let my tears show thee my pain, come wash away my stain!
3
Thy reward to magnify believer's faith in thee,
Abundant grace bestow upon all they that on thee wait;
I believe, my Lord! Thou art all my hope!
Grant thy boundless love to me, 'tis all I ever need.
617. I AM HOPING FOR THE MORNING

Ps 119.106 SLEEP / Rev 21.4 HOPE
I am hoping for the morning, of that day without compare,
Where all happiness is flowing, a day of eternal joy.
CHORUS
//Always hoping// for a life free from all pain,
Where a welcome is awaiting from Lord Jesus Christ my Friend.
2
I am hoping for the vict'ry, against death I will prevail,
I'll receive eternal glory and a crown upon my head.
3
I am hoping for the heavens, where love reigns forevermore,
I'm a pilgrim and I'm yearning, for the dwellings of the Lord.
4
To the celestial triumphant, I will soon unite my song,
All my cries will be translated with the anthem of the blest.
