Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 214 hymnals First Line: Is this the kind return Lyrics: 1. Is this the kind return, And these the thanks we owe, Thus to abuse eternal love, Whence all our blessings flow? 2. To what a stubborn frame Has sin reduced our mind! What strange rebellious wretches we, And God as strangely kind! 3. On us He bids the sun Shed his reviving rays; For us the skies their circles run, To lengthen out our days. 4. The brutes obey their God, And bow their necks to men; But we, more base, more brutish things, Reject His easy reign. 5. Turn, turn us, mighty God, And mold our souls afresh; Break, sov’reign grace, these hearts of stone, And give us hearts of flesh. 6. Let old ingratitude Provoke our weeping eyes, And hourly as new mercies fall Let hourly thanks arise. Used With Tune: GOLDEN HILL Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-9, Book II, number 74

O may we all remember well The night of death draws near. 2 We lay our garments by, Upon our beds to rest; So death will soon disrobe us all Of what is here possessed. 3 Lord, keep us safe this night, Secure from all our fears; May angels guard us while we sleep, Till morning light appears. 4 And when we early rise, And view th'unwearied sun, May we set out to win the prize, And after glory run. 5 And when our days are past, And we from time remove, O may we in Thy bosom rest, The bosom of Thy love.
