Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CXXIII (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Barrenness and indwelling sin; Sin And barrenness First Line: Lord, I'm defil'd in every part Lyrics: 1 LORD, I'm defil'd in every part, Barren my life, and cold my heart, Yet sometimes, through thy sov'reign grace, I catch a glimpse of Jesu's face. 2 This gives my drowsy heart a spring, I fain would rise, and fain would sing; But soon a cloud rolls in between, All black with some indwelling sin. 3 My notes then faulter on my tongue, the soul contagion spoils my song; But Thou, who dost the world control, Speak but the word, I shall be whole.

Nor this can reign, nor that prevail, Tho' each by turns my heart assail. 2 Now I complain, and groan and die, Now raise my songs of triumph high, Sing a rebellious passion slain, Or mourn to feel it live again. 3 One happy hour beholds me rise, Borne upwards to my native skies, While faith assists my soaring flight, To realms of joy, and worlds of light. 4 Great God, assist me thro' the fight, Make me triumphant in thy might; Thou the desponding heart canst raise, The victory mine, and thine the praise.

Let thy blood, for sinners spilt, Set my conscience free from guilt. 3 Lord! I come to thee for rest, Take possession of my breast; There thy blood-bought right maintain, And without a rival reign. 4 As the image in the glass Answers the beholder's face; Thus unto my heart appear, Print thine own resemblance there. 5 While I am a pilgrim here, Let Thy love my spirit cheer; As my guide, my guard, my Friend, Lead me to my journey's end. 6 Shew me what I have to do, Ev'ry hour my strength renew; Let me live a life of faith, Let me live the people's death.

Sin has a Thousand treach'rous Arts

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CL (1766) Topics: Deceitfulness of Sin Lyrics: 1 Sin has a Thousand treach'rous Wrts To practise on the Mind; With flatt'ring Looks she tempts our Hearts, But leaves a Sting behind. 2 With Names of Virtue she deceives The Aged and the Uoung; And while the heedless Wretch believes, She makes his Fetters strong. 3 She pleads for all the Joys she brings, And gives a fair Pretence; But cheats the Soul of heav'nly Things, And chains it down to Sense. 4 So on a Tree divinely fair Grew the forbidden Food; Our Mother took the Poison there, And tainted all her Blood.

Sin, like a venomous Disease

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.CLIII (1766) Topics: Folly and Madness of sin Lyrics: 1 Sin, like a venomous Disease, Infects our vital Blood; The only Balm is sov'reign Grace, And the Physician, God. 2 Our Beauty and our strength are fled, And we draw near to Death; But Christ, the Lord recals the Dead With his Almighty Breath. 3 Madness, by Nature, reigns within, The Passions burn and rage, Till God's own Son, with Skill divine, The inward Fire asswage. [4 We lick the Dust, we grasp the Wind, And solid Good despise; Such is the folly of the Mind, Till Jesus makes us wise. 5 We give our Souls the Wounds they feel, We drink the pois'nous Gall, And rush with Fury down to Hell; But Heav'n prevents the Fall.] 6 The Man possess'd amongst the Tombs Cuts his own Flesh, and cries; He foams and raves, till Jesus comes, And the foul Spirit flies.
