True Liberty given by Christ
Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Adoption First Line: Hark! for 'tis God's own son that calls Lyrics: 1 Hark! for 'tis God's own son that calls
To life and liberty;
Transported fall before his feet,
Who makes the prisoners free.
2 The cruel bonds of sin he breaks,
He sunders Satan's chain;
Smiling he deals those pardons round,
Which free from endless pain.
3 Into the captive heart he pours
His spirit from on high;
We lose the terrors of the slave,
And Abba, father, cry.
4 Shake off your bonds, and sing his grace;
The sinner's friend proclaim;
And call on all around to seek
True freedom by his name.
5 Walk on at large, till you attain
Your father's house above;
There shall you wear immortal crowns,
And sing immortal love. Scripture: John 8:36

How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord
Author: Authorship doubtful Appears in 2,204 hymnals Topics: The Godhead Holy Scripture Lyrics: 1 How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord,
Is laid for your faith in His excellent Word!
What more can He say, than to you He hath said,
To you who for refuge to Jesus have fled?
2 "Fear not, I am with thee; O be not dismayed!
For I am thy God, I will still give thee aid;
I'll strengthen thee, help thee, and cause thee to stand,
Upheld by My gracious, omnipotent hand.
3 "When through the deep waters I call thee to go,
The rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
For I will be with thee thy trials to bless,
And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.
4 "When through fiery trials thy pathway shall lie,
My grace, all-sufficient, shall be thy supply;
The flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
Thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 "E'en down to old age all My people shall prove
My sovereign, eternal, unchangeable love;
And when hoary hairs shall their temples adorn,
Like lambs they shall still in My bosom be borne.
6 "The soul that on Jesus doth lean for repose,
I will not--I will not desert to his foes;
That soul, though all hell should endeavour to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake!" Used With Tune: ADESTE FIDELES
How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord
