And the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way
Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns #CCVI (1802) Scripture: Numbers 21:4 First Line: How many and great are the foes which infest Lyrics: 1 How many and great are the foes which infest
The way thro' this world to the Canaan of rest?
The traveller ever his Lord would obey,
Yet oft is discourag'd because of the way.
2 Though Satan, the world, and corruptions combine,
And try to prevent the poor Pilgrim's design;
They cannot destroy, though they often betray,
And make him discourag'd because of the way.
3 When good he would do, imperfections abound,
His graces are weak, and temptations surround;
For many turn back, and would lead him astray,
Which makes him discourag'd because of the way.
4 Yet why should the Christian of Canaan despair,
Perplex'd or alarm'd with dishonoring fear?
Let him but his map and his leader obey,
Nor more be discourag'd because of the way.
5 In Christ inexhaustible treasures are stor'd,
And Jesus will suitable blessings afford;
Then why should the Pilgrim be fill'd with dismay?
Or why be discourag'd because of the way?
6 Unquenchable love and omnipotent pow'r,
Will land him ere long on the heav'nly shore;
There pleasure eternal will amply repay
For all the discouragements found in the way.

The Brazen Serpent
Hymnal: Hymns, etc. #A6 (1787) Scripture: Numbers 21 First Line: When the chosen tribes debated Lyrics: 1 When the chosen tribes debated
'Gainst their God, as hardly treated,
And complain'd their hopes were spilt;
God, for murm'ring to requite them,
Fiery serpents sent to bite them.
Lively type of deadly guilt.
2 Stung by these they soon repented:
And their God as soon relented.
Moses pray'd: He answer gave.
"Serpents were the beasts that strike them,
"Make of brass, a serpent like them,
"That’s the way I chuse to save."
3 Vain was bandage, oil or plaster:
Rankling venom kill'd the faster;
Till the serpent Moses took,
Rear'd it high, that all might view it,
Bid the bitten look up to it:
Life attended ev'ry look.
4 Jesus thus, for sinners smitten,
Wounded, bruised, serpent-bitten,
To his cross directs their faith.
Why should I then poison cherish?
Why despair of care, and perish?
Look, my soul, tho' stung to death.
5 Thine’s (alas!) a lost condition.
Works cannot work thee remission:
Nor thy goodness do thee good.
Death’s within thee, all about thee;
But the remedy‘s without thee;
See it in thy Saviour’s blood.
6 See the Lord of glory dying!
See him gasping! Hear him crying!
See his burden'd bosom heave!
Look, ye sinners, ye that hung him;
Look, how deep your sins have stung him;
Dying sinners, look, and live.

Spring up, O well, sweet fountain, spring
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #56 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Scripture: Numbers 21 Lyrics:
Spring up, O well! sweet fountain, spring!
And fructify the desert sand;
Sing ye that drink; the waters sing,
They dance along the, smiling land;
With flowers adorn, with verdure bless,
The waste and howling wilderness.
Ho, every one that thirsts draw nigh,
With sickness fainting, worn with toil;
61
Let him that hath no money buy,
Buy milk and honey, wine and oil,
The fourfold streams of Paradise,
Priceless, because above all price.
Come to the pools, ye lame and blind;
Ye lepers, to this Jordan come;
Sight, strength, and healing each may find;
Approach the waves, ye deaf and dumb;
Their joyful sound ye soon shall hear,
And your own voice delight your ear.
In every form the waters run,
Rill, river, torrent, lake, and sea;
Through every clime beneath the sun,
Free as the air, as daylight free,
Till earth's whole face the floods o'erweep,
As ocean's tides the channel'd deep.
As moved with mighty wings outspread,
God's Spirit o'er the formless void,
So be that Spirit's influence shed
To new-create a world destroy'd;
Till all that died through Adam's fall
Revive in Christ, who died for all.
