Life, Death, and the Resurrection

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #157 (1740) Topics: Frailty of Man First Line: Think, mighty GOD, on feeble Man Lyrics: 1 Think, mighty GOD, on feeble Man; How few his Hours! how short his Span! Short from the Cradle to the Grave' Who can secure his vital Breath Against the bold Demands of Death, With Skill to fly, or Pow'r to save? 2 Lord, shall it be for ever said, "The Race of Man was only made "For Sickness, Sorrow, and the dust!" Are not thy Servants, Day by Day, Sent to their Graves, and turn'd to Clay? Lord, where's thy Kindness to the Just? 3 Has thou not promis'd to thy Son And all his Seed a heav'nly Crown? But Flesh and Sense indulge Despair; For ever blessed be the Lord, That Faith can read his holy Word, And find a Resurrection there. 4 For ever blessed be the Lord, Who gives his Saints a long Reward For all their Toil, Reproach and Pain; Let all below, and all above, Join to proclaim thy wond'rous Love, And each repeat their loud Amen. Scripture: Psalm 89:47-52 Languages: English

Man Frail, and God Eternal

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #159 (1740) Topics: Frailty of Man First Line: Our GOD, our Help in Ages past Lyrics: 1 Our GOD, our Help in Ages past, Our Hope for Years to come, Our Shelter from the stormy Blast, And our Eternal Home. 2 Under the Shadow of thy Throne Thy Saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is thine Arm alone, And our Defence is sure. 3 Before the Hills in Order stood, Or Earth receiv'd her Frame, From Everlasting thou art GOD, To endless Years the same. 4 Thy Word commands our Flesh to Dust, Return, ye Sons of Men: All Nations rose from Earth at first, And turn to Earth again. 5 A thousand Ages, in thy Sight Are like an Ev'ning gone; Short as the Watch that ends the Night Before the rising Sun. 6 [The busy Tribes of Flesh and Blood, With all their Lives and Cares, Are carried downwards by the Flood, And lost in following Years. 7 Time, like an ever-rolling Stream, Bears all its Sons away; They fly, forgotten, as a Dream Dies at the op'ning Day. 8 Like flow'ry Fields the Nations stand Pleas'd with the Morning-Light; The Flow'rs beneath the Mower's Hand Lie with'ring e'er 'tis Night.] 9 Our GOD, our Help in Ages past, Our Hope for Years to come, Be thou our Guard while Troubles last, And our Eternal Home. Scripture: Psalm 90:1-5 Languages: English
