Hymns I wrote for a sermon series on Isaiah.
Come, sinners, heed the Savior’s call
Come to the feast, it’s free to all
Come hear His Word and truly live
He satisfies, great love he gives
Come seek the Lord, draw near today
Turn from your wicked thoughts and ways
His Word is strong and trustworthy
Great joy and peace one day we’ll see
– From a sermon on Isaiah 55
(To the tune of “The Doxology”)
We are now children of joy
Every Christian girl and boy
God our Father to enjoy
Hallelujah what a Savior
His redeeming work is done
Freedom from our shame is won
Resting in His compassion
Hallelujah what a Savior
We are clothed in his beauty
Ever righteous we will be
In Him our security
Hallelujah what a Savior
– From a sermon on Isaiah 54
(To the tune of the “Hallelujah What A Savior”)
Jesus came to do God’s will
Ancient prophecies fulfill
There upon Golgotha’s hill
Hallelujah what a Savior
Our iniquities bearing
For our guilt an offering
That we might be his offspring
Hallelujah what a Savior
Jesus rose in victory
Conquered sin and death for me
This my song eternally
Hallelujah what a Savior
– From a sermon on Isaiah 53:10-12
(To the tune of the “Hallelujah What A Savior”)
All like sheep we’ve gone astray
Each one turned to his own way
For each sin Jesus did pay
Hallelujah what a Savior
Bore our sins upon the tree
Fully paid the penalty
Crushed and wounded all for me
Hallelujah what a Savior
My salvation He did win
Freely I may enter in
Full redemption from my sin
Hallelujah what a Savior
Fully innocent was He
Perfect Lamb of God to be
Stricken and oppressed for me
Hallelujah what a Savior
With the wicked made His grave
Buried in a rich man’s cave
All of this for me to save
Hallelujah what a Savior
– From a sermon on Isaiah 53:4-9
(To the tune of the “Hallelujah What A Savior”)
Suffering cruel affliction
His blood sprinkles the nations
Shocking this our salvation
Hallelujah what a Savior
His good news we will believe
His glory we will perceive
His great love we will receive
Hallelujah what a Savior
Jesus knows your suffering
Pain and sorrow life can bring
Cast your cares upon the King
Hallelujah what a Savior
God exalted Him on high
His return is drawing nigh
May our praises reach the sky
Hallelujah what a Savior
– From a sermon on Isaiah 52:13-53:3
(To the tune of the “Hallelujah What A Savior”)
O Lord our God awake, awake
As in the days of old
Revive us Lord for Your name’s sake
Our hearts have grown too cold
Now to our God awake, awake
Father, Son, Holy Ghost
Who reigns o’er all that He did make
The Sovereign Lord of Hosts
To salvation awake, awake
Your sins He does forgive
New life with Him you now partake
Fore’er with Him you’ll live
To joyful joy awake, awake
He came and is coming
Around the world the good news take
Rejoice with glad singing
_ From a sermon on Isaiah 51:9-52:12
(To the tune of the “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Come and follow the Servant’s way
And listen to His Word
Morning by morning everyday
Sustained by what you’ve heard
Come and follow the Servant’s way
Real righteousness pursue
In everything choose to obey
Believe, desire, and do
Come and follow the Servant’s way
And trust Him in the night
For by your side, He’ll always stay
Your held within His might
– From a sermon on Isaiah 50:1-51:8
(To the tune of the “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Our Lord has not forgotten you
Your name is on His hand
He came to save, to make you new
His covenant will stand
Our Lord has not forgotten you
He knows your suffering
Your trials he’ll end – make all things new
And pour out his blessing
Our Lord has not forgotten you
The wicked – they will pay
He’ll gather us on the earth new
When He returns one day
The Lord has not forgotten you
So know your Savior Lord
And wait on Him – He will prove true
You’re held by love’s strong cord
– From a sermon on Isaiah 49:14-26
(To the tune of the “Amazing Grace”)
The Lord called and named His Servant
His mouth was a sharp sword
Glorified God where-e’er he went
And labored for the Lord
Behold our Lord formed His Servant
To bring His people in
For all the nations he was sent
To save them from their sin
Our faithful Lord chose His Servant
Despised and honored – He
God made Him a new covenant
So that we might go free
So let us all come and believe
And celebrate our Lord
His comfort and His love receive
His salvation out-poured
– From a sermon on Isaiah 49:1-13
(To the tune of the “O God Our Help In Ages Past”)
Amazing grace – he draws us near
Though we are slow to learn
We’re slow to see and slow to hear
His law and love we spurn
Our God will do what he declares
So that we might believe
And patiently our sins he bears
Our praises to receive
Our redemption he will perform
With joy let us proclaim
He teaches us – let us conform
And praise His holy name
– From a sermon on Isaiah 48
(To the tune of the “Amazing Grace”)
