Though Mighty Foes Assail Me, Lord
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Instruction Lyrics: 1 Though mighty foes assail me, Lord,
I fear not them, but Thee;
as boundless wealth and priceless spoil,
Thy word rejoices me.
2 Deceit and falsehood I abhor,
but in Thy law delight;
throughout the day I praise Thy name,
for all Thy ways are right.
3 Great peace has he who loves Thy law,
unmoved, he safely stands;
for Thy salvation I have hoped
and followed Thy commands.

they are my chief delight;
observant of Thy law and truth,
I walk before Thy sight. Scripture: Psalm 119:161-168 Used With Tune: MORNING SONG Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912
Though Mighty Foes Assail Me, Lord
Who is this fair one in distress
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 42 hymnals Topics: Children instructed; Instruction in piety; Piety instructions therein Lyrics:
[Who is this fair one in distress,
That travels from the wilderness?
And pressed with sorrows and with sins,
On her beloved Lord she leans.
This is the spouse of Christ our God,
Bought with the treasure of his blood;
And her request and her complaint
Is but the voice of every saint.]
"O let my name engraven stand
Both on thy heart and on thy hand;
Seal me upon thine arm, and wear
That pledge of love for ever there.
"Stronger than death thy love is known,
Which floods of wrath could never drown;
And hell and earth in vain combine
To quench a fire so much divine.
"But I am jealous of my heart,
Lest it should once from thee depart;
Then let thy name be well impressed
As a fair signet on my breast.
"Till thou hast brought me to thy home,
Where fears and doubts can never come,
Thy count'nance let me often see,
And often thou shalt hear from me.
"Come, my Beloved, haste away,
Cut short the hours of thy delay;
Fly like a youthful hart or roe
Over the hills where spices grow."
Scripture: Song of Solomon 8:5-7
Who is this fair one in distress
Thus far the Lord has led me on
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 660 hymnals Topics: Children instructed; Instruction in piety; Piety instructions therein Lyrics:
Thus far the Lord has led me on,
Thus far his power prolongs my days;
And every evening shall make known
Some fresh memorial of his grace.
Much of my time has run to waste,
And I perhaps am near my home;
But he forgives my follies past,
He gives me strength for days to come.
I lay my body down to sleep,
Peace is the pillow for my head;
While well-appointed angels keep
Their watchful stations round my bed.
In vain the sons of earth or hell
Tell me a thousand frightful things
My God in safety makes me dwell
Beneath the shadow of his wings.
[Faith in his name forbids my fear;
O may thy presence ne'er depart!
And in the morning make me hear
The love and kindness of thy heart.
Thus when the night of death shall come,
My flesh shall rest beneath the ground,
And wait thy voice to rouse my tomb,
With sweet salvation in the sound.]
Scripture: Psalm 4:8
Thus far the Lord has led me on
Approach, ye piously dispos'd
Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Instructive Psalms Lyrics: 1 Approach, ye piously dispos'd,
And my instruction hear;
I'll teach you the true discipline
Of a religious fear.
2 Let him, who length of life desires,
And prosp'rous ways would see,
From sland'ring language keep his tongue,
His Lips from falshood free:
3 The crooked paths of vice decline,
And virtue's ways pursue;
Establish peace, where 'tis begun;
And, where 'tis lost, renew.
4 The Lord from heav'n, beholds the just
With favourable eyes;
And, when distress'd, his gracious ear
Is open to their cries:
5 But turns his wrathful look on those
Whom mercy can't reclaim,
To cut them off, and from the earth
Blot out their hated name.
Scripture: Psalm 34 Text Sources: Tate and Brady's New Version
Approach, ye piously dispos'd

In Gabriel's hand a mighty stone
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 10 hymnals Topics: Instruction from God Lyrics:
In Gabriel's hand a mighty stone
Lies, a fair type of Babylon:
"Prophets, rejoice, and all ye saints,
God shall avenge your long complaints."
He said, and dreadful as he stood,
He sunk the millstone in the flood:
"Thus terribly shall Babel fall,
Thus, and no more be found at all."
Scripture: Revelation 18:20-21
