Life in His favor! Forgiven all sin

Author: Rev. James Yeams Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Psalm 30:5 Lyrics: 1 Life in His favor! Forgiven all sin, Sunshine around me, and comfort within; Sov'reign and Saviour, Redeemer and Friend, Thee will I follow and serve to the end. 2 Life in His favor! the sentence repealed, Pardoned the guilty, the sin-sick one healed; Prodigal welcomed, and sonship restored, Happy the soul in the smile of its Lord! 3 Life in His favor! All else is but vain, Sin's thorny pathways are sorrow and pain; Riches and pleasure a fugitive gleam, Honor and splendor a vanishing dream. 4 Where can be sunshine If night shroud the skies? Darkness broods o'er me until Thou arise; Radiance of mercy, effulgence divine, Sun of salvation, oh, break forth and shine! Used With Tune: LIFE IN HIS FAVOR

Let the seventh angel sound on high

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 28 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Psalm 30 Lyrics: Let the seventh angel sound on high, Let shouts be heard through all the sky; Kings of the earth, with glad accord, Give up your kingdoms to the Lord. Almighty God, thy power assume, Who wast, and art, and art to come: Jesus, the Lamb who once was slain, For ever live, for ever reign! The angry nations fret and roar, That they can slay the saints no more On wings of vengeance flies our God, To pay the long arrears of blood. Now must the rising dead appear; Now the decisive sentence hear; Now the dear martyrs of the Lord Receive an infinite reward.

Let him embrace my soul, and prove

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Psalm 30:6-12 Lyrics: Let him embrace my soul, and prove Mine interest in his heav'nly love; The voice that tells me, "Thou art mine," Exceeds the blessings of the vine. On thee th' anointing Spirit came, And spreads the savor of thy name; That oil of gladness and of grace Draws virgin souls to meet thy face. Jesus, allure me by thy charms, My soul shall fly into thine arms! Our wand'ring feet thy favors bring To the fair chambers of the King. [Wonder and pleasure tune our voice To speak thy praises and our joys; Our memory keeps this love of thine Beyond the taste of richest wine.] Though in ourselves deformed we are, And black as Kedar's tents appear, Yet, when we put thy beauties on, Fair as the courts of Solomon. [While at his table sits the King, He loves to see us smile and sing; Our graces are our best perfume, And breathe like spikenard round the room.] As myrrh new bleeding from the tree, Such is a dying Christ to ine And while he makes my soul his guest, My bosom, Lord, shall be thy rest. [No beams of cedar or of fir Can with thy courts on earth compare; And here we wait, until thy love Raise us to nobler seats above.] Topics: Health sickness, and recovery; Recovery from Sickness; Sickness healed; Praise for health restored

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Scripture: Psalm 30 Lyrics: 1 Lord, I will thee extol, for thou hast lifted me on high, and over me thou to rejoice madest not mine enemy. 2 O thou who art the Lord my God, I in distress to thee with loud cries lifted up my voice, and thou hast healed me. 3 O Lord, my soul thou hast brought up and rescued from the grave; that I to death should not go down, alive thou didst me save. 4 O ye that are his holy ones, sing praise unto the Lord; and unto him give thanks, when ye his holiness record. 5 For but a moment lasts his wrath; life in his favour lies: weeping may for a night endure, at morn doth joy arise. 6 In my prosperity I said, that nothing shall me move: 7 O Lord, thou hast my mountain made to stand strong by thy love. Thou didst thy face hide; then was I sore troubled and dismayed: 8 I cried to thee, O Lord, to thee I supplication made: 9 what profit is there in my blood, when I to death go down? Shall dust give praises unto thee? Shall it thy truth make known? 10 Hear, Lord, have mercy; help me, Lord; 11 thou didst from sackcloth free; my grief to dancing thou hast turned, with gladness girded me; 12 That sing thy praise my glory may, and never silent be. O Lord my God, for evermore I will give thanks to thee. Used With Tune: ST FULBERT

To thee, O Lord my God, I cried; and thou hast health and strength supplied. 2 Thou hast my soul restored, when I was near the grave; and from the pit, O Lord, alive thou didst me save. O ye his saints, sing to the Lord; with thanks his holiness record. 3 Soon in his anger past; life in his favour lies: tears for a night may last, at morn shall joy arise. I said in my prosperity, I surely ever moved shall be. 4 My mountain, by thy grace, thou madest to stand in power; thou didst withdraw thy face, and I was troubled sore. To thee, O Lord, with cries I prayed; I to the Lord petition made. 5 What shall my blood avail, when I to grave go down? Shall dust thy praises tell; Shall it thy truth make known? Hear me, O Lord, and mercy send, thy help to me, O Lord, extend. 6 My mourning thou at last hast into dancing turned; and thou for sackcloth hast with gladness me adorned; that sing to thee my glory may Lord, thee my God I'll praise for aye.
