Israel led to Canaan, and Christians to Heaven

Appears in 129 hymnals Topics: Afflictions removed by prayer; Afflictions removed by prayer First Line: Give thanks to God, he reigns above Lyrics: 1 Give thanks to God, he reigns above, Kind are his thoughts, his name is love, His mercy ages past have known, And ages long to come shall own. 2 Let the redeemed of the Lord The wonders of his grace record; Israel, the nation whom he chose, And rescu'd from their mighty foes. 3 [When God's almighty arm had broke Their fetters and th' Egyptian yoke, They trac'd the desert wandering round; A wild and solitary ground! 4 There they could find no leading road, Nor city for a fix'd abode; Nor food, nor fountain, to asswage Their burning thirst or hunger's rage.] 5 In their distress to God they cry'd God was their Saviour and their guide; He led their wandering march around. And brought their tribes to Canaan's ground. 6 Thus when our first release we gain From sin's old yoke, and satan's chain, We have this desert world to pass, A dangerous and a tiresome place. 7 He feeds and clothes us all the way, He guides our footsteps lest we stray, He guards us with a powerful hand, And brings us to the heavenly land. 8 Oh let the saints with joy record The truth and goodness of the Lord! How great his works! how kind his ways! Let every tongue pronounce his praise. Scripture: Psalm 107

Religious Education; or Instructions of Piety

Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Afflictions removed by prayer; Afflictions removed by prayer First Line: Children, in years and knowledge young Lyrics: 1 Children, in years and knowledge young, Your parents' hope, your parents' joy, Attend the counsels of my tongue, Let pious thoughts your minds employ. 2 If you desire a length of days, And peace to crown your mortal state, Restrain your feet from impious ways, Your lips from slander and deceit. 3 The eyes of God regard his saints, His ears are open to their cries; He sets his frowning face against The sons of violence and lies. 4 To humble souls and broken hearts God with his grace is ever nigh; Pardon and hope his love imparts When men in deep contrition lie. 5 He tells their tears, he counts their groans, His Son redeems their souls from death; His spirit heals their broken bones, His praise employs their tuneful breath. Scripture: Psalm 34:11-12

The Frailty and Shortness of Life

Appears in 165 hymnals Topics: Afflictions without rejection; Afflictions without rejection First Line: Lord, what a feeble piece Lyrics: 1 Lord, what a feeble piece Is this our mortal frame! Our life how poor a trifle 'tis, That scarce deserves the name! 2 Alas, the brittle clay That built our body first! And every month and every day, 'Tis mouldering back to dust. 3 Our moments fly apace, Our feeble powers decay, Swift like a flood our hasty days Are sweeping us away. 4 Yet, if our days must fly, We'll keep their end in sight, We'll spend them all in wisdom's way, And let them speed their flight. 5 They'll waft us sooner o'er This life's tempestuous sea; Soon we shall reach the peaceful shore Of blest eternity. Scripture: Psalm 90:5
