Psalm 17
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.36 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Heaven of separate souls and resurrection; Separate souls, heaven; Souls in separate state First Line: Arise, my gracious God Lyrics:
Arise, my gracious God,
And make the wicked flee;
They are but thy chastising rod,
To drive thy saints to thee.
Behold, the sinner dies,
His haughty words are vain;
Here in this life his pleasure lies,
And all beyond is pain.
Then let his pride advance,
And boast of all his store;
The Lord is my inheritance,
My soul can wish no more.
I shall behold the face
Of my forgiving God;
And stand complete in righteousness,
Washed in my Savior's blood.
There's a new heav'n begun,
When I awake from death,
Dressed in the likeness of thy Son,
And draw immortal breath.

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.37 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Heaven of separate souls and resurrection; Separate souls, heaven; Souls in separate state First Line: Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove Lyrics:
Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove
My faith, my patience, and my love:
When men of spite against me join,
They are the sword, the hand is thine.
Their hope and portion lies below:
'Tis all the happiness they know,
'Tis all they seek; they take their shares,
And leave the rest among their heirs.
What sinners value I resign;
Lord, 'tis enough that thou art mine:
I shall behold thy blissful face,
And stand complete in righteousness.
This life's a dream, an empty show;
But the bright world to which I go
Hath joys substantial and sincere:
When shall I wake and find me there?
O glorious hour! O blest abode!
I shall be near and like my God!
And flesh and sin no more control
The sacred pleasures of the soul.
My flesh shall slumber in the ground
Till the last trumpet's joyful sound;
Then burst the chains with sweet surprise,
And in my Savior's image rise.

Psalm 17
Lift up your eyes to th' heavenly seats
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #259 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Heaven of separate souls and resurrection; Separate souls, heaven; Souls in separate state Lyrics:
Lift up your eyes to th' heav'nly seats
Where your Redeemer stays;
Kind Intercessor, there he sits,
And loves, and pleads, and prays.
'Twas well, my soul, he died for thee,
And shed his vital blood;
Appeased stern justice on the tree,
And then arose to God.
Petitions now, and praise may rise,
And saints their off'rings bring;
The Priest, with his own sacrifice,
Presents them to the King.
[Let papists trust what names they please,
Their saints and angels boast;
We've no such advocates as these,
Nor pray to th' heav'nly host.]
Jesus alone shall bear my cries
Up to his Father's throne;
He, dearest Lord! perfumes my sighs,
And sweetens every groan.
[Ten thousand praises to the King,
"Hosannah in the highest!"
Ten thousand thanks our spirits bring
To God and to his Christ.]
Scripture: Psalm 17 Languages: English
Lift up your eyes to th' heavenly seats
O 'tis a lovely thing to see
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #320 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Heaven of separate souls and resurrection; Separate souls, heaven; Souls in separate state Lyrics:
O 'tis a lovely thing to see
A man of prudent heart,
Whose thoughts, and lips, and life agree
To act a useful part.
When envy, strife, and wars begin
In little angry souls,
Mark how the sons of peace come in,
And quench the kindling coals.
Their minds are humble, mild, and meek,
Nor let their fury rise;
Nor passion moves their lips to speak,
Nor pride exalts their eyes.
Their frame is prudence mixed with love,
Good works fulfil their day;
They join the serpent with the dove,
But cast the sting away.
Such was the Savior of mankind,
Such pleasures he pursued;
His flesh and blood were all refined,
His soul divinely good.
Lord, can these plants of virtue grow
In such a heart as mine?
Thy grace my nature can renew,
And make my soul like thine.
Scripture: Matthew 10:16 Languages: English

And none shall find his promise vain.

And grants the prisoner sweet release.

The Lord supports the sinking mind;

The widow and the fatherless.

Praise him in everlasting strains. Scripture: Psalm 146 Languages: English
