Hymn 43 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.43.2 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: How vast the treasure we possess! Lyrics: How vast the treasure we possess! How rich thy bounty, King of grace! This world is ours, and worlds to come; Earth is our lodge, and heav'n our home. All things are ours: the gifts of God; The purchase of a Savior's blood; While the good Spirit shows us how To use, and to improve them too. If peace and plenty crown my days, They help me, Lord, to speak thy praise; If bread of sorrows be my food, Those sorrows work my lasting good. I would not change my blest estate For all the world calls good or great; And while my faith can keep her hold, I envy not the sinner's gold. Father, I wait thy daily will; Thou shalt divide my portion still; Grant me on earth what seems thee best, Till death and heav'n reveal the rest. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 3:21 Languages: English

Hymn 44 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.44.1 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: He dies! the friend of sinners dies! Lyrics: He dies! the friend of sinners dies! Lo! Salem's daughters weep around; A solemn darkness veils the skies; A sudden trembling shakes the ground. Come, saints, and drop a tear or two For him who groaned beneath your load: He shed a thousand drops for you, A thousand drops of richer blood. Here's love and grief beyond degree, The Lord of glory dies for men! But lo! what sudden joys we see; Jesus the dead revives again! The rising God forsakes the tomb! The tomb in vain forbids his rise; Cherubic legions guard him home, And shout him welcome to the skies Break off your fears, ye saints, and tell How high our great Deliv'rer reigns; Sing how he spoiled the hosts of hell, And led the monster Death in chains. Say, "Live for ever, wondrous King! Born to redeem, and strong to save; Then ask the monster, "Where's thy sting?" And, "Where's thy vict'ry, boasting Grave?" Scripture: Luke 23:27 Languages: English

Hymn 46 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.46.2 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Awake, my zeal; awake, my love Lyrics: Awake, my zeal; awake, my love, To serve my Savior here below, In works which perfect saints above And holy angels cannot do. Awake, my charity, to feed The hungry soul, and clothe the poor; In heav'n are found no sons of need, There all these duties are no more. Subdue thy passions, O my soul! Maintain the fight, thy work pursue, Daily thy rising sins control, And be thy vict'ries ever new. The land of triumph lies on high, There are no foes t' encounter there; Lord, I would conquer till I die, And finish all the glorious war. Let every flying hour confess I gain thy gospel fresh renown; And when my life and labors cease, May I possess the promised crown! Scripture: Isaiah 38:18-19 Languages: English

Hymn 48

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.48 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Awake, our souls; away, our fears Lyrics: Awake, our souls; away, our fears, Let every trembling thought begone; Awake, and run the heav'nly race, And put a cheerful courage on. True, 'tis a strait and thorny road, And mortal spirits tire and faint; But they forget the mighty God, That feeds the strength of every saint. Thee, mighty God! whose matchless power Is ever new and ever young, And firm endures, while endless years Their everlasting circles run. From thee, the overflowing spring, Our souls shall drink a fresh supply, While such as trust their native strength Shall melt away, and droop, and die. Swift as an eagle cuts the air, We'll mount aloft to thine abode On wings of love our souls shall fly, Nor tire amidst the heav'nly road. Scripture: Isaiah 40:28-31 Languages: English

Hymn 52

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.52 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: 'Twas the commission of our Lord Lyrics: 'Twas the commission of our Lord, "Go teach the nations, and baptize:" The nations have received the word Since he ascended to the skies. He sits upon th' eternal hills, With grace and pardon in his hands; And sends his cov'nant with the seals, To bless the distant British lands. "Repent, and be baptized," he saith, For the remission of your sins:" And thus our sense assists our faith, And shows us what his gospel means. Our souls he washes in his blood, As water makes the body clean; And the good Spirit from our God Descends like purifying rain. Thus we engage ourselves to thee, And seal our cov'nant with the Lord; O may the great eternal Three In heav'n our solemn vows record! Scripture: Matthew 28:19 Languages: English

Hymn 53

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.53 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: God, who in various methods told Lyrics: God, who in various methods told His mind and will to saints of old, Sent down his Son, with truth and grace, To teach us in these latter days. Our nation reads the written word, That book of life, that sure record: The bright inheritance of heav'n Is by the sweet conveyance giv'n. God's kindest thoughts are here expressed, Able to make us wise and bless'd; The doctrines are divinely true, Fit for reproof and comfort too. Ye British isles, who read his love In long epistles from above, (He hath not sent his sacred word To every land,) praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Hebrews 1:1-2 Languages: English

Hymn 54

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.54 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Jesus, we bless thy Father's name Lyrics: Jesus, we bless thy Father's name; Thy God and ours are both the same; What heav'nly blessings from his throne Flow down to sinners through his Son! "Christ be my first elect," he said, Then chose our souls in Christ our head, Before he gave the mountains birth, Or laid foundations for the earth. Thus did eternal love begin To raise us up from death and sin; Our characters were then decreed, "Blameless in love, a holy seed." Predestinated to be sons, Born by degrees, but chose at once, A new regenerated race, To praise the glory of his grace. With Christ our Lord we share our part In the affections of his heart; Nor shall our souls be thence removed, Till he forgets his first-beloved. Scripture: Ephesians 1:3 Languages: English

Hymn 58

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.58 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Let mortal tongues attempt to sing Lyrics: Let mortal tongues attempt to sing The wars of heav'n, when Michael stood Chief general of th' Eternal King, And fought the battles of our God. Against the dragon and his host The armies of the Lord prevail: In vain they rage, in vain they boast, Their courage sinks, their weapons fail. Down to the earth was Satan thrown, Down to the earth his legions fell; Then was the trump of triumph blown, And shook the dreadful deeps of hell. Now is the hour of darkness past, Christ has assum'd his reigning power; Behold the great accuser cast Down from the skies to rise no more. 'Twas by thy blood, immortal Lamb, Thine armies trod the tempter down; 'Twas by thy word and powerful name They gain'd the battle and renown. Rejoice, ye heav'ns; let every star Shine with new glories round the sky; Saints, while ye sing the heav'nly war, Raise your Deliv'rer's name on high. Scripture: Revelation 12:7 Languages: English

He said, and dreadful as he stood, He sunk the millstone in the flood: "Thus terribly shall Babel fall, Thus, and no more be found at all." Scripture: Revelation 18:20-21 Languages: English

Hymn 60

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #I.60 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: Our souls shall magnify the Lord Lyrics: Our souls shall magnify the Lord, In God the Savior we rejoice: While we repeat the Virgin's song, May the same Spirit tune our voice! [The Highest saw her low estate, And mighty things his hand hath done: His overshadowing power and grace Makes her the mother of his Son. Let ev'ry nation call her blest, And endless years prolong her fame; But God alone must be ador'd: Holy and reverend is his name.] To those that fear and trust the Lord, His mercy stands for ever sure: From age to age his promise lives, And the performance is secure. He spake to Abram and his seed, In thee shall all the earth be blessed;" The memory of that ancient word Lay long in his eternal breast. But now no more shall Isr'el wait, No more the Gentiles lie forlorn: Lo, the desire of nations comes; Behold, the promised seed is born! Scripture: Luke 1:46 Languages: English
