O Precious gift from God above!

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 119:1-24 Lyrics: 1 O Precious gift from God above! To be possess'd with christian love; The greatest joy the soul can find: That is to have the Saviour's mind. 2 Such christians are to all a friend, To others need's they will attend; They live not for themselves alone, But feel for those who grieve and mourn. 3 Their hearts with kind affections flows, And they are kind to friends and foes; They help in ev'ry time of need, And prove to all a friend indeed. 4 They teach, admonish and advise, Without deception or disguise: They are sincere in all they do, In all their dealings, just and true. 5 They have the cause of God at heart, They strive to act the christian part; And every office they do bear They execute with holy fear. 6 O, blessed souls in such a state! Who, their bless'd Saviour immitate; How bless'd and happy will they be With Christ to all eternity. Topics: Second Sunday after Epiphany

Where'er the Gospel truth is taught

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 119:1-16 Lyrics: 1 Where'er the Gospel truth is taught, The way of life to light is brought-- The ignorant are made to know, Their Saviour, and to serve him too. 2 The greatest gifts on man bestow'd, That is to know the living God; And Jesus Christ his only son, And what he hath for sinners done. 3 Jesus who for our sins aton'd, Will be confess'd and freely own'd! The gifts he doth for us provide, Are by the Holy Ghost applied. 4 What changes in the heart take place, When sinners feel the work of grace; They feel the pow'rful Gospel word, And know that Jesus is their Lord. 5 The pow'rs of darkness are dispell'd! The soul with light and life is fill'd-- Enabled by a heav'nly pow'r, To love their Saviour evermore. 6 Tho' diff'rent gifts the spirit give, Yet all from him alone derive; Sufficient grace withal is giv'n, To fit each seeking soul for heav'n.
