So Let Our Lives and Lips Express
Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Hymnal: The Christian Hymnary #994 (1972) Lyrics: 1 So let our lips and lives express
The holy Gospel we profess;
So let our walks and virtues shine,
To prove the doctrine all divine.
2 Thus shall we best proclaim abroad
The honor of our Saviour God;
When the salvation reigns within,
And grace subdues the pow'r of sin.
3 Our flesh and sense must be denied;
Passion and envy, lust and pride;
While justice, temp'rance, truth and love
Our inward piety approve.
4 Religion bears our spirits up,
While we expect that blessed hope,
The bright appearance of the Lord,
And faith stands leaning on His Word.
5 That sacred stream, Thy holy Word,
That all our raging fear controls:
Sweet peace Thy promises afford,
And give new strength to fainting souls. Topics: Book Four: Occasional Selections, Gospel Songs and Hymns; Services, Occasions Closing Hymns, Doxologies Scripture: 1 John 3:18 Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE

Deceived by Subtle Snares of Hell
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #1199 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Deceived by subtle snares of hell,
Adam, our head, our father, fell;
When Satan, in the serpent hid,
Proposed the fruit that God forbid.
2. Death was the threatening: death began
To take possession of the man;
His unborn race received the wound,
And heavy curses smote the ground.
3. But Satan found a worse reward:
Thus saith the vengeance of the Lord:
“Let everlasting hatred be
Betwixt the woman’s seed and thee.
4. The woman’s seed shall be my Son;
He shall destroy what thou hast done;
Shall break thy head, and only feel
Thy malice raging at His heel.
5. He spake; and bid four thousand years
Roll on; at length His Son appears;
Angels with joy descend to earth,
And sing the young Redeemer’s birth.
6. Lo, by the sons of hell He dies;
But as He hung ’twixt earth and skies,
He gave their prince a fatal blow,
And triumphed o’er the powers below. Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE
Deceived by Subtle Snares of Hell
O Wherefore Do the Nations Rage?
Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5505 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: O wherefore do the nations rage Lyrics: 1. O wherefore do the nations rage,
And kings and rulers strive in vain,
Against the Lord of earth and Heav’n
To overthrow Messiah’s reign?
2. Their strength is weakness in the sight
Of Him who sits enthroned above;
He speaks, and judgments fall on them
Who tempt His wrath and scorn His love.
3. By God’s decree His Son receives
The nations for His heritage;
The conqu’ring Christ supreme shall reign
As King of kings, from age to age.
4. Be wise, ye rulers of the earth,
And serve the Lord with godly fear;
With reverent joy confess the Son
While yet in mercy He is near.
5. Delay not, lest His anger rise,
And ye should perish in your way;
Lo, all that put their trust in Him
Are blest indeed, and blest for aye. Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE
O Wherefore Do the Nations Rage?
Stay, Thou Insulted Spirit, Stay
Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #6340 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1. Stay, Thou insulted Spirit, stay,
Though I have done Thee such despite,
Nor cast the sinner quite away,
Nor take Thine everlasting flight.
2. Though I have steeled my stubborn heart,
And still shook off my guilty fears,
And vexed, and urged Thee to depart,
For many long rebellious years;
3. Though I have most unfaithful been
Of all who e’er Thy grace received,
Ten thousand times Thy goodness seen,
Ten thousand times Thy goodness grieved;
4. Yet O! the chief of sinners spare,
In honor of my great High Priest,
Nor in Thy righteous anger swear
T’exclude me from Thy people’s rest.
5. This only woe I deprecate.
This only plague I pray remove;
Nor leave me in my lost estate,
Nor curse me with this want of love.
6. If yet Thou canst my sins forgive,
From now, O Lord, relieve my woes,
Into Thy rest of love receive,
And bless me with calm repose.
7. Now, Lord, my weary soul release,
Upraise me with Thy gracious hand.
And guide into Thy perfect peace,
And bring me to the promised land. Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE
Stay, Thou Insulted Spirit, Stay
The Heavens Declare thy Glory
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #9217 Meter: 8.8.8.8 First Line: The heav’ns declare Thy glory, Lord Lyrics: 1 The heav’ns declare Thy glory, Lord,
In every star Thy wisdom shines;
But when our eyes behold Thy Word,
We read Thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
And nights and days, Thy power confess:
But the blest volume Thou hast writ
Reveals Thy justice and Thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey Thy praise
Round the whole earth, and never stand:
So when Thy truth begun its race,
It touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall Thy spreading Gospel rest
Till through the world Thy truth has run,
Till Christ has all the nations blest
That see the light, or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Bless the dark world with heav’nly light;
Thy Gospel makes the simple wise,
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.
6 Thy noblest wonders here we view
In souls renewed and sins forgiv’n;
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew,
And make Thy Word my guide to Heav’n. Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE

When Israel Through the Desert Passed
Author: Benjamin Beddome Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #13077 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When Israel through the desert passed,
A fiery pillar went before
To guide them through the dreary waste
And lessen the fatigue they bore.
2 Such is Thy glorious Word, O God!
’Tis for our light and guidance giv’n;
It sheds its luster all abroad
And points the path to bliss and Heav’n.
3 It fills the soul with sweet delight,
The heart with living faith empowers;
It sets our wandering footsteps right,
Displays Thy love, and kindles ours.
4 Its promises rejoice our hearts,
Its doctrines are divinely true;
While highest wisdom it imparts,
It comforts and instructs us, too.
5 Ye favored lands that have this Word,
Ye saints who feel its saving power,
Unite your tongues to praise the Lord
And His distinguished grace adore! Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE
