The Sacred Harp from the nineteenth century has been a popular source of music for American hymnody. Many hymn texts have been set to the tune BEACH SPRING:
- Come, All Christians, Be Committed
- As a Fire is Meant for Burning
- God of Day and God of Darkness
- Come and Find the Quiet Center
- God, Whose Giving Knows No Ending
- and others…
Come, ye sinners, poor and needy,
weak and wounded, sick and sore;
Jesus ready stands to save you,
full of pity, love, and power.
Come, ye thirsty, come, and welcome,
God’s free bounty glorify;
true belief and true repentance,
every grace that brings you nigh.
Come, ye weary, heavy laden,
lost and ruined by the fall;
if you tarry till you’re better,
you will never come at all.
Let not conscience make you linger,
nor of fitness fondly dream;
all the fitness he requireth
is to feel your need of him.
