What wars and strugglings in my breast! But through thy grace that reigns within, I guard against my darling sin. 4 That sin which close besets me still, That works and strives against my will; When shall thy spirit's sovereign power Destroy it, that it rise no more. 5 With an impartial hand, the Lord Deals out to mortals their reward: The kind and faithful souls shall find A God as faithful and as kind. 6 And men that love revenge shall know, God hath an arm of vengeance too: The just and pure, shall ever say, Thou art more pure, more just than they.

Or where's a refuge like our God? 2 'Tis he that girds me with his might, Gives me his holy sword to wield; And while with sin and hell I fight, Spreads his salvation for my shield. 3 He lives, and blessings crown his reign, The God of my salvation lives, The dark designs of hell are vain; While heavenly peace my Father gives. 4 Before the scoffers of the age, I will exalt my Father's name, Nor tremble at their mighty rage, But meet reproach, and bear the shame. 5 To David and his royal seed Thy grace for ever shall extend; Thy love to saints in Christ their head, Knows not a limit, nor an end. Scripture: Psalm 18:30-31

Appears in 47 hymnals Topics: Spiritual Enemies overcome; Spiritual Enemies overcome First Line: My God, how many are my fears? Lyrics: 1 My God how many are my fears? How fast my foes increase? Conspiring my eternal death, They break my present peace. 2 Thy lying tempter would persuade There's no relief in heaven, And all my growing sins appear Too great to be forgiven. 3 But thou, my glory, and my strength, Shalt on the tempter tread, Shalt silence all my threatening guilt, And raise my drooping head. 4 [I cry'd, and from his holy hill He bow'd a listening ear; I call'd my Father, and my God, And he subdued my fear. 5 He shed soft slumbers on mine eyes, In spite of all my foes; I woke, and wonder'd at the grace That guarded my repose.] 6 What tho' the hosts of death and hell All arm'd against me stood; Terrors no more shall shake my soul; My refuge is my God. 7 Arise, O Lord, fulfill thy grace, While I thy glory sing; My God has broke the serpent's teeth, And death has lost his sting. 8 Salvation to the Lord belongs, His arm alone can save; Blessings attend thy people here, And reach beyond the grave. Scripture: Psalm 3

Now shall my inward joys arise

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 64 hymnals Topics: Spiritual enemies overcome Lyrics: Now shall my inward joys arise, And burst into a song; Almighty love inspires my heart, And pleasure tunes my tongue. God on his thirsty Zion hill Some mercy drops has thrown, And solemn oaths have bound his love To shower salvation down. Why do we then indulge our fears, Suspicions, and complaints? Is he a God, and shall his grace Grow weary of his saints? Can a kind woman e'er forget The infant of her womb? And 'mongst a thousand tender thoughts Her suckling have no room? "Yet," saith the Lord, "should nature change, And mothers monsters prove, Zion still dwells upon the heart Of everlasting love. "Deep on the palms of both my hands I have engraved her name; My hands shall raise her ruined walls, And build her broken frame?" Scripture: Isaiah 49:13

Questions and doubts be heard no more

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Spiritual enemies overcome Lyrics: Questions and doubts be heard no more, Let Christ and joy be all our theme; His Spirit seals his gospel sure, To every soul that trusts in him. Jesus, thy witness speaks within; The mercy which thy words reveal Refines the heart from sense and sin, And stamps its own celestial seal. 'Tis God's inimitable hand That molds and forms the heart anew; Blasphemers can no more withstand, But bow, and own thy doctrine true. The guilty wretch that trusts thy blood Finds peace and pardon at the cross; The sinful soul, averse to God, Believes and loves his Maker's laws. Learning and wit may cease their strife, When miracles with glory shine; The voice that calls the dead to life Must be almighty and divine. Scripture: 1 John 5:10

Happy the heart where graces reign

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 243 hymnals Topics: Spiritual enemies overcome Lyrics: Happy the heart where graces reign, Where love inspires the breast; Love is the brightest of the train, And strengthens all the rest. Knowledge, alas! 'tis all in vain, And all in vain our fear; Our stubborn sins will fight and reign, If love be absent there. 'Tis love that makes our cheerful feet In swift obedience move; The devils know and tremble too, But Satan cannot love. This is the grace that lives and sings When faith and hope shall cease; 'Tis this shall strike our joyful strings In the sweet, realms of bliss. Before we quite forsake our clay, Or leave this dark abode, The wings of love bear us away To see our smiling God. Scripture: Psalm 18:15-18

When I can read my Title clear

Appears in 1,247 hymnals Topics: Deliverance from Spiritual Enemy Lyrics: 1 When I can read my Title clear To Mansions in the Skies, I bid Farewel to ev'ry Fear, And wipe my weeping Eyes. 2 Should Earth against my Soul engage, And hellish Darts be hurl'd, Then I can smile at Satan's Rage, And face a frowning World. 3 Let Cares like a wild Deluge come, And Storms of Sorrow fall; May I but safely reach my Home, My God, my Heav'n my All. 4 There shall I bathe my weary Soul In Seas of heav'nly Rest; And not a Wave of Trouble roll Across my peaceful Breast.
