Whence do our mournful thoughts arise?

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Topics: Good works profit men, not God; Works good profit men, not God Lyrics: Whence do our mournful thoughts arise? And where's our courage fled? Have restless sin and raging hell Struck all our comforts dead? Have we forgot th' almighty name That formed the earth and sea? And can an all-creating arm Grow weary or decay? Treasures of everlasting might In our Jehovah dwell; He gives the conquest to the weak And treads their foes to hell. Mere mortal power shall fade and die, And youthful vigor cease: But we that wait upon the Lord Shall feel our strength increase. The saints shall mount on eagles' wings, And taste the promised bliss, Till their unwearied feet arrive Where perfect pleasure is. Scripture: Isaiah 40:27-30

The Law of God is Good and Wise

Author: Matthias Loy Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: Good Works Lyrics: 1 The law of God is good and wise and sets his will before our eyes, shows us the way of righteousness, and dooms to death when we transgress. 2 Its light of holiness imparts the knowledge of our sinful hearts that we may see our lost estate and seek deliv'rance ere too late. 3 To those who help in Christ have found and would in works of love abound it shows what deeds are his delight and should be done as good and right. 4 When men the offered help disdain and wilfully in sin remain, its terror in their ear resounds and keeps their wickedness in bounds. 5 The law is good; but since the fall its holiness condemns us all; it dooms us for our sin to die and has no pow'r to justify. 6 To Jesus we for refuge flee, who from the curse has set us free, and humbly worship at his throne, saved by his grace through faith alone.
