For the beauty of the earth
When all Thy mercies, O my God
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: The Book of Praise #99 (1972) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Cheerfulness Languages: English Tune Title: WINCHESTER OLD
When all Thy mercies, O my God
From God, the Lord my Saviour
Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #134 (1732) Topics: Cheerfulness of Faith Lyrics: I. From God, the Lord my Saviour,
I'll never swerve nor stray;
Whose Love, and kind Behaviour,
Doth never die away.
He always is the same:
He shortens all my sorrow,
And will relieve to Morrow,
Blest be his holy Name.
II. When I am disappointed
Of all Mankind's Relief,
I fly to the Anointed
Who softens all my Grief;
He ne'er denies his Love
To his distressed Creature,
Tho' my depraved Nature
He sharply doth reprove.
III. On him I am relying
E'en in the greatest Stress'
He's daily verifying
The many Promises
He in his Word has made;
My Life, my Breath and Motion
Shall be at his Devotion,
Whose Love can never fade.
IV. Hi gracious Inclination
Tends to my greatest Good,
Seeks all Minkind's Salvatin
By his own precious Blood,
In whom we are restor'd,
To his Paternal Kindness,
And sav'd from sinful Blindness.
His Name be e'er ador'd.
V. Praise him with Hearts and voices;
Which to that End were giv'n;
For CHRIST himself rejoices
To find our Thoughts in Heav'n:
All other Time is lost,
We spend in trifling Pleasures
Regardless of those Treasures,
Bought at our SAVIOUR"S Cost.
VI. And when the present Fashion
Of this deceitful World,
With all its Ostentation,
Down to its Doom is hurl'd;
Then those redeem'd by CHRIST
Shall from the Grave's Corruption
Be rais'd to sing th' Adoption:
Hosanna in the High'st!
VII. Thus, whilst I bear with Patience
The present Misery,
Due to my Disobedience;
Yet blest Eternity
I have within my View;
Where my Redeemer's Glory
Will change my mournful Story,
And form me quite anew.
VIII. This is the Father's Pleasure,
Who rais'd us from the Dust;
His Son has endless Treasure
Laid up for all the Just;
And God the Holy Ghost
Will shew the new Creation,
And bring us to that Station,
Where he shall love him most. Languages: English
From God, the Lord my Saviour
As with gladness men of old
Author: William C. Dix Hymnal: The Hymnal #135 (1950) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Cheerfulness Lyrics: 1 As with gladness men of old
Did the guiding star behold;
As with joy they hailed its light,
Leading onward, beaming bright;
So, most gracious Lord, may we
Evermore be led to Thee.
2 As with joyful steps they sped
To that lowly manger bed,
There to bend the knee before
Him whom heaven and earth adore;
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek Thy mercy seat.
3 As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare;
So may we with holy joy,
Pure, and free from sin's alloy,
All our costliest treasures bring,
Christ, to Thee, our heavenly King.
4 Holy Jesus, every day
Keep us in the narrow way;
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds Thy glory hide.
Amen. Tune Title: DIX
As with gladness men of old
In God, the Lord most just
Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #136 (1732) Topics: Cheerfulness of Faith Lyrics: I. In God, the Lord most just,
I place my only Trust,
For he is my Redeemer
From Sin and the Blasphemer,
He can and will relive me
From what may hurt and grieve me.
II. Tho' sin doth rage and tear,
Yet I will not despair,
For CHRIST is my Salvation,
In Spite of all Damnation:
On him I am relying
While living or when dying.
III. Shou'd my last Minute come;
That will convey me home,
Where I shall see th' Intention
Of CHRIST and his Redemption.
I die now or to Morrow
Then cease all Sin and Sorrow.
IV. O Lord God, JESUS CHRIST,
Our Saviour and High Priest,
Thy bloody Wounds and Psssion
Surpass or Declaration.
No Praise of Men or Spirits
Can rise up to thy Merits.
V. Amen, with one Accord
Let us intreat the Lord
To guide us with his Spirit
Till we at last inherit
Our great Redeemer's Glory
Farewell what's Transitory. Languages: English Tune Title: [In God the Lord most just]
In God, the Lord most just
God is our Refuge in Distress
Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #138 (1732) Topics: Cheerfulness of Faith Lyrics: I. God is our Refuge in Distress,
Our string Defence and Armour,
He's present, when we're comfortless,
In Storms he is our Harbour;
Th' infernal Enemy
Look! how enrag'd is he!
He now exerts his Force
To stop the Gospel-Course;
Who can withstand the Tyrant?
II. All human Power is but dust;
Our Strength an idle Story:
The Valiant Man, in whom we trust,
Is CHRIST, the Son of Glory.
He is the Conquerour,
Vested with sov'reign Pow'r.
The Lord both Great and Good,
The only living god,
Gains us the Field of Battle.
III. If all the Devl's shou'd wage the War,
In Order to destroy us,
They should not once put us in Fear;
The Vict'ry wou'd be joyous.
We dare the Prince of Hell;
With Fury let him swell;
He cannot hurt one Hair;
We shall escape the Snare;
CHRIST"S single Word can rout him.
IV. His Word puts all our Foes to Flight;
With Shame they are confounded;
For CHRIST instructs our Hands to fight;
His Spirit is unbounded:
Tho' we shou'd lose our Lives,
Fame, Children, Goods and Wives,
Destroy Hell what it can,
'Twill find but little Gain,
God's Kingdom is our Portion. Languages: English Tune Title: [God is our Refuge in Distress]
God is our Refuge in Distress
Is God for me? what is it
Hymnal: Psalmodia Germanica #139 (1732) Topics: Cheerfulness of Faith Lyrics: I. Is God for me? what is it
That men can do to me?
As oft my God I visit,
All Woes give Way and flee:
If God, my Head and Master,
Defend me from above,
What Pain or what Disaster
Can drive me from his Love.
II. Of this I am persuaded,
And boast how openly,
That he, whose Love ne'er faded,
Is wholly turn'd to me;
And that in Change and Chances
He stands at my right Hand,
And, when the Storm advances,
'Tis calm at his Command.
III. The Ground of my Profession
Is JESUS and his Blood,
Which gives me the Possession
Of th' everlasting Good:
What is my Breath, while living,
But Smoak and Vanity?
Does not then what CHRIST'S giving,
Deserve all Love from me?
IV. My JESUS and his Merit
Is all I seek and care;
Were he not with my Spirit,
Ah! I shou'd soon despair.
God's just and holy Nature
Cou'd never bear in Sight;
So foul and vile a Creature
As I am in his Light.
V. 'Tis CHRIST, who has abolish'd
The Claim of Hell and Sin;
His Grace has cleans'd and polish'd
My humbled Soul within:
In him I raise with Gladness
My Voice and Courage up,
And dare indulge no Sadness,
As one that has no Hope.
VI. I know no Condemnation,
No Law, that speaks Despair;
And Satan's Imprecation,
I treat with scornful Air:
No Judgment nor sad Tiding
Creates Uneasiness;
'Tis JESUS I confide in,
Who skreens me with his Grace.
VII. His Spirit is the Sov'reign
Possessor of my Heart,
No Grief there dares to govern;
He checks the deepest Smart.
He gives his Benediction;
And, as he dwells in me,
Cries ABBA in Affliction
With holy Fervency.
VIII. When seiz'd with Fear and Anguish
I feel my wretchedness,
He sighs and speaks a Language,
My Tongue ne'er can express;
But God, who knows the Motion,
His Spirit works in me,
Is pleas'd with the Devotion
Rais'd from Humility.
IX. His Spirit chears my Spirit
With many a sav'ry Word,
That those may Grace inherit,
Whose Rest is in the Lord;
Who know he doth a Building
In Heav'n anew contrive;
Both Heart and Senses yielding
To All that they believ.
X. There is my sure Adoption
Secur'd and seal'd withal:
My Flesh may see Corruption,
But Heav'n can never fail.
And though with Tears I'm sowing
This Vale of Misery,
The Light of CHRIST'S bestowing
Chears all Adversity.
XI. Who enters his Alliance,
'Gainst Satan, World and Sin,
Will find their fierce Annoyance
Without, and from within;
Reproach, Shame, Contradiction,
Will fall upon his Head;
All Manner of Affliction
Will be his daily Bread.
XII. This all I have digested,
Yet keep my Chearfulness.
On God my Care is rested;
In him I acquiesce:
To him I give my treasure,
And all I am and have;
His Live transcends all Pleasure
Here and beyond the Grave.
XIII. Shou'd Earth lose its Foundation,
Thou stand'st my lasting Rock;
No temp'ral Desolation
Shall give my Love a Shock:
No Sword nor Persecution,
No Want nor Nakedness,
Shall cause a Diminution
Of Love I now profess.
XIV. No Angel, Pow'r, nor Gladness,
No shining Diadem,
No Passion, Love, nor Sadness,
No Cruelty, nor Flame,
Of what Denomination,
Be't strong, weak, great, or small,
Can breed a Separation
'Twixt me and God my All.
XV. My Heart o'erflows with Pleasure,
And knows not how to grieve;
My Song bespeaks the Treasure
Of Joy, I now conceive:
The Sun, whose bright Enjoyment
I feel, is CHRIST, my Love,
Who gives me sweet Employment,
And lives and reigns above.

Is God for me? what is it
Rejoice, the Lord is King
Author: Rev. Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Hymnal #193a (1950) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Cheerfulness Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, the Lord is King:
Your Lord and King adore!
Rejoice, give thanks, and sing,
And triumph ever more:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
2 His Kingdom cannot fail,
He rules o'er earth and heaven;
The keys of death and hell
Are to our Jesus given:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!

Shall all our sins destroy,
And every bosom swell
With pure seraphic joy:
Lift up your heart, lift up your voice!
Rejoice, again I say, rejoice!
Amen. Tune Title: DARWALL'S 148TH
