Psalm 15
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.30 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Charity and justice; Poor charity to them First Line: Who shall ascend thy heav'nly place Lyrics:
Who shall ascend thy heav'nly place,
Great God, and dwell before thy face?
The man that minds religion now,
And humbly walks with God below;
Whose hands are pure, whose heart is clean,
Whose lips still speak the thing they mean;
No slanders dwell upon his tongue;
He hates to do his neighbor wrong.
[Scarce will he trust an ill report,
Nor vents it to his neighbor's hurt:
Sinners of state he can despise,
But saints are honored in his eyes.]
[Firm to his word he ever stood,
And always makes his promise good;
Nor dares to change the thing he swears,
Whatever pain or loss he bears.]
[He never deals in bribing gold,
And mourns that justice should be sold;
While others gripe and grind the poor,
Sweet charity attends his door.]
He loves his enemies, and prays
For those that curse him to his face
And doth to all men still the same
That he would hope or wish from them.
Yet, when his holiest works are done,
His soul depends on grace alone:
This is the man thy face shall see,
And dwell for ever, Lord, with thee.

Psalm 112
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.246 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Charity and justice; Poor charity to them; Charity to the poor First Line: Thrice happy man who fears the Lord Lyrics:
Thrice happy man who fears the Lord,
Loves his commands, and trusts his word;
Honor and peace his days attend,
And blessings to his seed descend.
Compassion dwells upon his mind,
To works of mercy still inclined;
He lends the poor some present aid,
Or gives them, not to be repaid.
When times grow dark, and tidings spread
That fill his neighbors round with dread,
His heart is armed against the fear,
For God with all his power is there.
His soul, well fixed upon the Lord,
Draws heav'nly courage from his word;
Amidst the darkness light shall rise,
To cheer his heart and bless his eyes.
He hath dispersed his alms abroad;
His works are still before his God;
His name on earth shall long remain,
While envious sinners fret in vain.

Psalm 112
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.247 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Charity and justice; Poor charity to them; Charity to the poor First Line: Happy is he that fears the Lord Lyrics:
Happy is he that fears the Lord,
And follows his commands;
Who lends the poor without reward,
Or gives with lib'ral hands.
As pity dwells within his breast
To all the sons of need;
So God shall answer his request
With blessings on his seed.
No evil tidings shall surprise
His well-established mind;
His soul to God his refuge flies,
And leaves his fears behind.
In times of general distress
Some beams of light shall shine,
To show the world his righteousness,
And give him peace divine.
His works of piety and love
Remain before the Lord;
Honor on earth and joys above
Shall be his sure reward.

Psalm 112
That Man is blest who stands in Awe
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P112a (1766) Topics: Charity and justice; Charity to the poor Lyrics: 1 That Man is blest who stands in Awe
Of GOD, and loves his sacred Law,
His Seed on Earth shall be renown'd;
His House the Seat of Wealth shall be,
An inexhausted Treasury,
And with successive Honours crown'd.
2 His lib'ral Favours he extends,
To some he gives, to others lends;
A generous Pity fills his Mind:
Yet what his Charity impairs,
He saves by Prudence in Affairs
And thus he's just to all Mankind.
3 His Hands, while they his Alms bestow'd,
His Glory's future Harvest sow'd;
The sweet Remembrance of the Just,
Like a green Root, revives and bears
A Train of Blessings for his Heirs,
When dying Nature sleeps in Dust.
4 Beset with threat'ning Dangers round,
Unmov'd shall he maintain his Ground;
His Conscience holds his Courage up:
The Soul that's fill'd with Virtue's Light,
Shines brightest in Affliction's Night;
And sees in Darkness Beams of Hope.
Pause.
5 [Ill Tidings never can surprize
His Heart, that fix'd on GOD relies,
Though Waves and Tempests roar around:
Safe on the Rock he sits, and sees
The Shipwreck of his Enemies,
And all their Hope and Glory drown'd.
6 The Wicked shall his Triumph see,
And gnash their Teeth in Agony,
To find their Expectations crost;
They and their Envy, Pride, and Spite,
Sink down to everlasting Night,
And all their Names in Darkness lost.] Scripture: Psalm 112 Languages: English
