In vain men talk of living faith

Author: Hart Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Proverbs 8:13 Lyrics: 1 In vain men talk of living faith, When all their works exhibit death; When they indulge some sinful view, In all they say and all they do. 2 The true believer fears the Lord; Obeys his precepts, keeps his word; Commits his works to God alone, And seeks his will before his own. 3 A barren tree that bears no fruit, Brings no great glory to its root; When on the boughs rich fruit we see, ’Tis then we cry, “A goodly tree.” 4 Never did men, by faith divine, To selfishness and sloth incline; The Christian works with all his power, And grieves that he can work no more.

To us the voice of Wisdom cries

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Proverbs 8 Lyrics: To us the voice of Wisdom cries, Hearken, ye children, and be wise; Better than gold the fruit I bear, Rubies to me may not compare, Happy the man who daily waits To hear me, watching at my gates; Wretched is he who scorns my voice, Death and destruction are his choice. To them that love me I am kind; And those who seek me early find; My Son, give me thine heart,--and learn Wisdom from folly to discern. 28 The Lord possess'd me, ere of old, His hand the firmament unroll'd; Before He bade the mountains stand, Or pour'd the ocean round the land. Rejoicing then before his throne, From everlasting I was known; Rejoicing still, as in His sight, With men on earth is my delight. Mark, the beginning of my law, --Fear ye the Lord with sacred awe; Mark the fulfilment of the whole, Love ye the Lord with all your soul. We hear, we learn; may we obey; Jesus, the life, the truth, the way, Wisdom and righteousness, we see, Grace and salvation all in Thee. Topics: Wisdom

Hail! high, exalted, righteous Man

Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Proverbs 8:23 Lyrics: 1 Hail! high, exalted, righteous Man, First of the Ways of God! Whose Work of Love in thee began, As wintess'd by thy Blood. 2 Before the Sons of God declar'd With Shouts, their solemn Joy; Or Songs of Morning Stars were heard, As pure without Alloy: 3 Thy early Day, proclaim'd Thee then, The First-born Child of Grace; Great Representative of Men, Before the Father's Face. 4 The great Invisible we see, In Thee, and Thee alone: To Men, and Angels out of Thee, The Godhead is unknown. 5 God's noble Works shine in thy Face, Thou his infinite Thought; Creation, Providence, and Grace, In Thee decreed and wrought.
