Who hath his dwelling made, beneath th' Almighty's Shade
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XCI (1767) Topics: Description of Confidence of Believers in Dangers Lyrics: 1 Who hath his Dwelling made, beneath th'Almighty's Shade,
Shall securely there abide:
Thus to my Soul I'll say, He is my Tow'r and Stay,
In thee, LORD, I will confide.
His tender Love and Care, Shall free thee from the Snare,
And the noisome Pestilence;
His shelt'ring Wings he'll spread, O'er thy unguarded Head,
And his Truth is thy Defence.
2 No Terrors of the Night, Shall thy firm courage fright,
Nor the Shafts that fly by Day;
Nor secret Plague that kills, Nor those infectious Ills,
Which in hottest Season slay:
Near thee ten Thousand die, And strew'd around thee lie,
Whilst thy Health untouch'd remains;
Thou shalt look on and see, Their sad Catastrophe,
Counting still the Sinners Gains.
3 Because with Confidence, On GOD, for thy Defence,
Thou most firmly didst rely;
Therefore no Sickness shall, Upon thy Dwelling fall,
Nor shall any Plague draw nigh:
For GOD, throughout thy Days, To guard thee in thy Ways,
To his Angels gives Commands;
And they, lest thou should'st meet, Rough Stones to wound thy Feet,
Shall convey thee in their Hands.
4 In Safety he shall go; Lions and Dragons too,
Underneath his Feet shall lie;
Because he honour'd me, Saith GOD, I'll set him free,
And will place his Throne on high:
Whatever Ill befalls, I'll answer when he calls,
And increase his Pow'r and Wealth;
And when in Calm Content, His happy Life is spent,
Him I'll crown with saving Health. Scripture: Psalm 91 Languages: English Tune Title: [Who hath his dwelling made, beneath th' Almighty's Shade]
Who hath his dwelling made, beneath th' Almighty's Shade
With my whole Heart, my GOD and King
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CXXXVIII (1767) Topics: Description of Confidence of Believers in Dangers Lyrics: 1 With my whole Heart, my GOD and King,
Thy worthy Praise I will proclaim;
Before the GODS with Joy I'll sing,
And ever bless thy holy Name.
2 I'll worship at thy sacred Seat;
And, with thy Love divine inspir'd,
The Praises of thy Truth repeat,
Thy Truth through all thy Works admir'd.
3 Thou graciously inclin'd thine Ear,
When I to thee address'd my cry;
And when my Soul was press'd with Fear,
Didst inward Strength to me supply.
4 Therefore shall ev'ry earthly Prince
Thy Name with Prsise pursue;
Whom these admir'd Events convince,
That all thy Works are just and true.
5 They all thy wond'rous Ways, O LORD,
With chearful Songs of Joy shall bless;
And all thy glorious Acts record,
And still thy awful Pow'r confess.
6 For GOD, although enthron'd on high,
Does thence the Poor respect;
The Proud far off, his scornful Eye,
Beholds with ever just Neglect.
7 Though I with Trouble am oppress'd,
He shall my spiteful Foes disarm;
Relieve my Soul, when most distress'd,
And keep me safe from ev'ry Harm.
8 The LORD, whose Mercies ever last,
Shall fix my happy State;
And mindful of his Favours past,
Shall his own glorious Work compleat. Scripture: Psalm 138 Languages: English Tune Title: [With my whole Heart, my God and King]
With my whole Heart, my GOD and King
Ye Princes who in Might excel
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XXIX (1767) Topics: Description of Confidence of Believers in Dangers Lyrics: 1 Ye Princes who in Might excel,
Your grateful Sacrifice prepare;
God's glorious Actions loudly tell,
His wond'rous Pow'r to all declare;
To him alone your Homage pay;
To him alone devoutly pray.
2 To His great Name fresh Altars raise;
And humbly due Respect afford;
Him in his sacred Temple praise,
Where he's with solemn State ador'd.
To him continual Pray'rs address,
His Name with constant Praises bless.
3 'Tis He that with amazing Noise
The wat'ry Clouds in sunder breaks:
The Ocean trembles at his Voice,
When he from Heav'n in thunder speaks;
His Voice loud echoes through the Hills,
And all the Earth with Terror fills.
4 How full of Pow'r His Voice appears!
With what majestick Terror crown'd!
Which from the Roots tall Cedars tears,
And strews their scatter'd Branches round.
Whene'er the LORD in Thunder speaks,
The Trees of Libanus he breaks.
5 They, and the Hills on which they grow,
Are sometimes hurried far away,
And leap, like Hinds that bounding go,
Or Unicorns in youthful Play:
the Cloud-topp'd Hills themselves will quake,
And from their firm Foundations shake.
6 When God in Thunder loudly speaks,
And scatter'd Flames of Lightning sends,
The Forest nods, the Desart quakes,
And stubborn Kadesh lowly bends,
To see his pointed Lightnings fly,
While Thunder rends the vaulted Sky.
7 He makes the Hinds to cast their Young,
And lays the Beasts dark coverts bare;
While those that to His Courts belong,
Securely sing His Praises there:
His Saints in Safety there attend,
And at his awful Footstool bend.
8 God rules the angry Floods on high,
His boundless Sway shall never cease;
His People He'll with Strength supply,
And bless His own with constant Peace;
On them he sends his Blessings down,
And will his Saints with Glory crown. Scripture: Psalm 29 Languages: English Tune Title: [Ye Princes who in might excel]

I send the Joys of Earth away
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XI (1766) Topics: Sensual Delights dangerous Lyrics: 1 I send the Joys of Earth away,
Away ye Tempters of the Mind,
False as the smooth, deceitful Sea,
And empty as the whistling Wind.
2 Your Streams were floating me along
Down to the Gulf of black Despair,
And whilst I listen'd to your Song,
Your Streams had e'en convey'd me there.
3 Lord, I adore thy matchless Grace,
That warn'd me of that dark Abyss;
That drew me from those treach'rous Seas,
And bid me seek superior Bliss.
4 Now to the shining Realms above,
I stretch my Hands and glance my Eyes;
O for the Pinions of a Dove,
To bear me to the Upper Skies!
5 There, from the Bosom of my God,
Oceans of endless Pleasure roll;
There would I fix my last Abode,
And drown the sorrows of my Soul. Languages: English
I send the Joys of Earth away
The true Messiah now appears
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XII (1766) Topics: Sensual Delights dangerous Lyrics: 1 The true Messiah now appears,
The Types are all withdrawn;
So fly the Shadows and the Stars
Before the rising Dawn.
2 No smoaking Sweets, nor bleeding Lambs,
Nor Kid, nor Bullock slain;
Incense and Spice of costly Names
Would all be burnt in vain.
3 Aaron must lay his Robes away,
His Mitre and his Vest,
When God himself comes down to be
The Off'ring and the Priest.
4 He took our mortal Flesh to shew
The Wonders of his Love;
For us he paid his Life below;
And prays for us above.
5 Father, he cries, forgive their Sins,
For I myself have dy'd;
And then he shows his opened Veins,
And pleads his wounded Side. Languages: English
The true Messiah now appears
Lord! what a wretched Land is this
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LIII (1766) Topics: Dangers of our earthly Pilgrimage Lyrics: 1 Lord! what a wretched Land is this,
That yields us no Supply;
No chearing Fruits, no wholesome Trees,
Nor Streams of living Joy.
2 But pricking Thorns through all the Ground,
And mortal Poisons grow,
And all the Rivers that are found,
With dang'rous Waters flow.
3 Yet the dear Path to thine Abode
Lies through this horrid Land,
Lord! we would keep the heav'nly Road,
And run at thy Command.
[4 Our Souls shall tread the Desart through
With undiverted Feet;
And Faith and flaming Zeal subdue
The Terrors that we meet.]
[5 A thousand savage Beasts of Prey
Around the Forest roam,
But Judah's Lion guards the Way,
And guides the Strangers Home.]
[6 Long Nights and Darkness dwell below,
With scarce a twinkling Ray;
But the bright World to which we go
Is everlasting Day.]
[7 By glimmering Hopes and gloomy Fears
We trace the sacred Road;
Thro' dismal Deeps and dang'rous Snares
We make our Way to God.]
8 Our Journey is a thorny Maze,
But we march upward still,
Forget these Troubles of the Ways,
And reach at Sion's Hill.
[9 See the kind Angels at the Gates,
Inviting us to come;
There Jesus the Fore-runner waits
To welcome Trav'lers Home.]
10 There on a green and flow'ry Mount
Our weary Souls shall sit,
And with transporting Joys recount
The Labours of our Feet.
[11 No vain Discourse shall fill our Tongue,
Nor Trifles vex our Ear,
Infinite Grace shall be our Song,
And God rejoice to hear.]
12 Eternal Glories to the King
That brought us safely through;
Our Tongue shall never cease to sing,
And endless Praise renew. Languages: English
