The Joys of Heaven

Author: Steele Hymnal: CoEH1793 #CC (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Come, Lord, and warm each languid heart Lyrics: 1 Come Lord, and warm each languid heart, Inspire each lifeless tongue; And let the joys of Heaven impart Their influence to our song. 2 Sorrow, and pain, and every care, And discord there shall cease; And perfect joy, and love sincere Adorn the realms of peace. 3 The soul, from sin for ever free, Shall mourn its power no more; But, cloath'd in spotless purity, Redeeming love adore. 4 There on a throne, (how dazzling bright!) Th' exalted Saviour shines; And beams ineffable delight On all the heavenly minds. 5 There shall the followers of the lamb Join in immortal songs; And endless honours to his name Employ their tuneful tongues. 6 Lord, tune our hearts to praise and love, Our feeble notes inspire; Till, in thy blissful courts above, We join th' angelic choir.

The Cross

Hymnal: CoEH1793 #CLXXVI (1793) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Come, see on bloody Calvary Lyrics: 1 Come see on bloody Calvary, Suspended on the accursed tree, A wretched suff'rer cover'd o'er With shame, and weltering in his gore. 2 Is this the Saviour long foretold To usher in the age of gold? To make the reign of sorrow cease, And bind the jarring world in peace? 3 'Tis he, 'tis he,—he kindly shrouds His glories in a night of clouds, That souls might from their ruin rise, And heir th' unperishable skies. 4 Jesus, what millions of our race Have been the triumphs of thy grace, And millions more to thee shall fly, And on thy sacrifice rely? 5 That tree, that curse-empoison'd tree, Which prov'd a bloody rack to thee, Shall in the noblest blessings shoot, And fill the nations with its fruit. 6 The sorrow, shame, and death were thine, And all the stores of wrath divine; Ours are the glory, life, and bliss: What love can be compar'd to this.

Lord teach our songs to rise! Thy love can animate the strain, And bid it reach the skies. 6 O happy period! glorious day! When Heaven and earth shall raise, With all their powers, the raptur'd lay, To celebrate thy praise. Topics: Son Languages: English

GOD a Refuge in Time of Trouble

Author: Steele Hymnal: CoEH1793 #CXLIII (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Dear refuge of my weary soul Lyrics: 1 Dear refuge of my weary soul, On thee, when sorrows rise, On thee, when waves of trouble roll, My fainting hope relies. 2 To thee I tell each rising grief, For thou alone canst heal; Thy word can bring a sweet relief For every pain I feel. 3 But O! when gloomy doubts prevail, I fear to call thee mine; The springs of comfort seem to fail, And all my hopes decline. 4 Yet, gracious God, where shall I flee? Thou art my only trust; And still my soul would cleave to thee, Tho' prostrate in the dust. 5 Hast thou not bid me seek thy face? And shall I seek in vain? And can the ear of sovereign grace Be deaf when I complain? 6 No, still the ear of sovereign grace Attends the mourner's prayer; O may I ever find access To breathe my sorrows there. 7 Thy mercy-seat is open still; Here let my soul retreat; With humble hope attend thy will, And wait beneath thy feet.

Christian's Conflict between Light and Darkness

Hymnal: CoEH1793 #LXXVII (1793) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Dear Saviour, make me wise to see Lyrics: 1 Dear Saviour, make we wise to see My sin, and guilt, and remedy; 'Tis said, of all thy blood has bought, "They shall of Israel's God be taught." 2 Their plague of heart thy people know; They know thy name and trust thee too; They know the Gospel's blissful sound, The paths where endless joys abound. 3 Thy know the Father and the Son, Theirs is eternal life begun; Unto salvation they are wise, Their grace shall into glory rise. 4 But— ignorance itself am I, Born blind— estrang'd from thee I lie; O Lord, to thee I humbly own I nothing know, as should be known. 5 I scarce know God, or Christ, or sin, My foes without, or plague within; Know not my interest, Lord, in thee, In pardon, peace, or liberty. 6 But help me to declare to-day, If many things I cannot say, "One thing I know," all praise to thee, "Tho' blind I was— yet now I see."

Penitence and Hope

Author: Steele Hymnal: CoEH1793 #CXXXVII (1793) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Dear Saviour, when my thoughts recall Lyrics: 1 Dear Saviour, when my thoughts recall The wonders of thy grace, Low at thy feet asham'd I fall, And hide this wretched face. 2 Shall love like thine be thus repaid? Ah vile, ungrateful heart! By earth's low cares detain'd, betray'd, From Jesus to depar — 3 From Jesus, who alone can give True pleasure, peace and rest: When absent from my Lord, I live Unsatisfy'd, unblest. 4 But he, for his own mercy's sake, My wandering soul restores: He bids the mourning heart partake The pardon it implores. 5 O while I breathe to thee, my Lord, The penitential sigh, Confirm the kind, forgiving word, With pity in thine eye! 6 Then shall the mourner at thy feet Rejoice to seek thy face, And grateful own how kind, how sweet Thy condescending grace!
