And on their tongues deceit,
A word of His their pride can quell,
And all their aims defeat.

And hope for more to come. Used With Tune: ABRIDGE Text Sources: Poems Chiefly Religious, 1833

Hail, God the Son, in Glory Crowned

Ere time began to be;
Throned with Thy Sire, through half the round
Of vast eternity!

Display their author’s power;
And each exalted seraph-flame
Creator, Thee adore.

Contracted to a span—
The co-eternal Son of God,
The mortal Son of man.
4. To save us from our lost estate,
Behold His life-blood stream:
Hail Lord, almighty to create,
Almighty to redeem!

His Church below sustains;
Till nature shall her judge survey,
The King Messiah reigns.

When time shall cease to be;

Afflictions Do Not Come Alone
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Afflictions do not come alone,
A voice attends the rod;
By both He to His saints is known,
A Father and a God!
2. Let not My children slight the stroke
I for chastisement send;
Nor faint beneath My kind rebuke,
For still I am their friend.
3. The wicked I perhaps may leave
Awhile, and not reprove;
But all the children I receive
I scourge, because I love.
4. If therefore you were left without
This needful discipline;
You might, with cause, admit a doubt,
If you, indeed, were Mine.
5. Shall earthly parents then expect
Their children to submit?
And wilt not you, when I correct,
Be humbled at My feet?
6. To please themselves they oft chastise,
And put their sons to pain;
But you are precious in My eyes,
And shall not smart in vain.
7. I see your hearts, at present, filled
With grief, and deep distress;
But soon these bitter seeds shall yield
The fruits of righteousness.
8. Break through the clouds, dear Lord, and shine!
Let us perceive Thee nigh!
And to each mourning child of Thine
These gracious words apply. Used With Tune: ABRIDGE Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 135

The Saviour bids us watch and pray
Author: Thomas Hastings Appears in 89 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Saviour bids us watch and pray
Through time's brief, fleeting hour,
And gives the Spirit's quickening ray
To those who seek its power.

Maintain a warrior's strife;
Help, Lord, to hear thy voice to-day;
Obedience is our life.
3 The Saviour bids us watch and pray;
For quickly he will come,
To call us from our toils away
To our eternal home.
4 The Saviour bids us watch and pray;
For lo! the Judge is near;
O may we joyfully obey,
And watch till he appear!
