The heavens declare thy glory, Lord
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #LVI (1789) Topics: The Gospel Dispensation The Glory and Success of the Gospel Lyrics: 1 The heavens declare thy glory, Lord
In every star thy wisdom shines;
But, in the volume of thy word,
We read thy name in fairer lines.
2 Sun, moon, and stars, convey thy praise
Round the whole earth and never stand;
So, when thy truth began its race,
It touch'd and glanc'd on every land.
3 Nor let thy spreading gospel rest,
Till thro' the earth thy truth has run,
Till it has all the nations blest,
That see the light or feel the sun.
4 Great God of righteousness, arise,
Bless the dark world with heavenly light,
Thy gospel makes the simple wise,
Thy laws are pure, thy judgment right.
5 Thy noblest wonders here we view,
In souls renew'd and sins forgiven,
Lord, cleanse our sins, our souls renew,
And make thy word our guide to heaven.
6 Thy noblest wonders here we view.
In souls renewed and sins forgiven:
Lord, cleanse my sins, my soul renew.
And make thy word my guide to heaven. Languages: English

Great was the Day, the Joy was great
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CXLIV (1766) Topics: Success of the Gospel Lyrics: 1 Great was the Day, the Joy was great
When the divine Disciples met;
Whilst on their Heads the Spirit came,
And sat like Tongues of cloven Flame.
2 What Gifts, what Miracles he gave!
And Pow'r to kill, and Pow'r to save!
Furnish'd their Tongues with wond'rous Words,
Instead of Shields, and Spears, and swords.
3 Thus arm'd, he sent the Champions forth,
From East to West, from South to North;
Go, and assert your Saviour's Cause:
Go, spread the Myst'ry of his Cross.
4 These Weapons of the holy War,
Of what Almighty Force they are,
To make our stubborn Passions bow,
And lay the proudest Rebel low!
5 Nations, the learned and the rude,
Are by these Heav'nly Arms subdu'd;
While Satan rages at his Loss,
And hates the Doctrine of the Cross.
6 Great King of Grace! my Heart subdue,
I would be led in Triumph too,
A willing Captive to my Lord,
And sing the Vict'ries of his Word. Languages: English

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CXLIII (1766) Topics: Success of the Gospel First Line: What diff'rent Pow'rs of Grace and Sin Lyrics: 1 What diff'rent Pow'rs of Grace and sin
Attend our mortal State?
I hate the Thoughts that work within,
And do the Works I hate.
2 Now I complain, and groan, and die,
While Sin and Satan reign;
Now raise my Songs of Triumphs high,
For Grace prevails again.
3 So Darkness struggles with the Light
Till perfect Day arise;
Water and Fire maintain the Fight,
Until the weaker dies.
4 Thus will the Flesh and Spirit strive,
And vex and break my Peace;
But I shall quit this mortal Life,
And Sin for ever cease. Languages: English

My Savior and my King,
Thy beauties are divine;
Thy lips with blessings overflow,
And every grace is thine.
Now make thy glory known,
Gird on thy dreadful sword,
And ride in majesty to spread
The conquests of thy word.
Strike through thy stubborn foes,
Or melt their hearts t' obey,
While justice, meekness, grace, and truth,
Attend thy glorious way.
Thy laws, O God, are right;
Thy throne shall ever stand;
And thy victorious gospel proves
A sceptre in thy hand.
[Thy Father and thy God
Hath without measure shed
His Spirit, like a joyful oil,
T' anoint thy sacred head.]
[Behold, at thy right hand
The Gentile church is seen,
Like a fair bride in rich attire,
And princes guard the queen.]
Fair bride, receive his love,
Forget thy father's house;
Forsake thy gods, thy idol gods,
And pay thy Lord thy vows.
O let thy God and King
Thy sweetest thoughts employ;
Thy children shall his honors sing
In palaces of joy.

While Night to Day, and Day to Night,
Divinely teach his Name.

Their gen'ral Voice is known;
They shew the Wonders of his Hand,
And Orders of his Throne.

We are not left to Nature's Voice,
To bid us know the Lord.
5 His Statutes and Commands
Are set before our Eyes,
He puts his Gospel in our Hands,
Where our Salvation lies.

His Truth without Deceit,
His Promises for ever sure,
And his Rewards are great.

Affords so much Delight,
Nor Gold that has the Furnace past,
So much allures the Sight.
8 While of thy Works I sing,
Thy Glory to proclaim,
Accept the Praise, my GOD, my King
In my Redeemer's Name.]

It spreads diviner Light,
It calls dead Sinners from their Tombs,
And gives the Blind their Sight.
3 How perfect is thy Word!
And all thy Judgments just;
For ever sure thy Promise, Lord,
And Men securely trust.
4 My gracious GOD, how plain
Are thy Directions giv'n!
O may I never read in vain,
But find the Path to Heav'n.
Pause.
5 I hear thy Word with Love,
And I would fain obey;
Send thy good Spirit from above
To guide me, lest I stray.
6 O who can ever find
The Errors of his Ways?
Yet with a bold, presumptuous Mind
I would not dare transgress.
7 Warn me of ev'ry Sin,
Forgive my secret Faults,
And cleanse this guilty Soul of mine,
Whose Crimes exceed my Thoughts.
8 While with my Heart and Tongue
I spread thy Praise abroad;
Accept the Worship and the Song,
My Saviour and my GOD. Languages: English
