Away From Every Mortal Care
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 77 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Away from every mortal care,
Away from earth, our souls retreat;
We leave this worthless world afar,
And wait and worship near Thy seat.
2 Lord, in the temple of Thy grace
We see Thy feet, and we adore;
We gaze upon Thy lovely face,
And learn the wonders of Thy power.
3 While here our various wants we mourn,
United groans ascend on high;
And prayer bears a quick return
Of blessings in variety.
4 If Satan rage, and sin grow strong,
Here we receive some cheering word;
We gird the Gospel armor on
To fight the battles of the Lord.
5 Or if our spirit faints and dies,
Our conscience galled with inward stings,
Here doth the righteous Sun arise
With healing beams beneath His wings.
6 Father! my soul would still abide
Within Thy temple, near Thy side;
But if my feet must hence depart
Still keep Thy dwelling in my heart. Used With Tune: MAINZER Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-09

As Birds Their Infant Brood Protect
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 31 hymnals Lyrics: 1. As birds their infant brood protect,
And spread their wings to shelter them,
Thus saith the Lord to His elect,
So will I guard Jerusalem.
2. And what then is Jerusalem,
This darling object of His cares?
Where is its worth in God’s esteem?
Who built it? Who inhabits there?
3. Jehovah founded it in blood,
The blood of His incarnate Son;
There dwell the saints, once foes to God
The sinners whom He calls His own.
4. There, though besieged on every side,
Yet much beloved and guarded well,
From age to age they have defied
The utmost force of earth and hell.
5. Let earth repent, and hell despair,
This city has a sure defense;
Her name is called, The Lord is there,
And who has power to drive Him hence? Used With Tune: MAINZER Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)

Now Let Us Join with Hearts and Tongues
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 16 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Now let us join with hearts and tongues,
And emulate the angels’ songs;
Yea, sinners may address their King
In songs that angels cannot sing.
2. They praise the Lamb who once was slain,
But we can add a higher strain;
Not only say, He suffered thus,
But that He suffered all for us.
3. When angels by transgression fell,
Justice consigned them all to hell;
But mercy formed a wondrous plan,
To save and honor fallen man.
4. Jesus, who passed the angels by,
Assumed our flesh to bleed and die;
And still He makes it His abode,
As man, He fills the throne of God.
5. Our next of kin, our brother now,
Is He to whom the angels bow;
They join with us to praise His name,
But we the nearest interest claim.
6. But ah! how faint our praises rise!
Sure, ’tis the wonder of the skies;
That we, who share His richest love,
So cold and unconcerned should prove.
7. O glorious hour, it comes with speed
When we from sin and darkness freed,
Shall see the God who died for man,
And praise Him more than angels can. Used With Tune: MAINZER Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 39
