Almighty Maker, God!

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #II (1816) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Almighty Maker, God! How wondrous is thy name! Thy glories now diffus'd abroad Thro' the creation's frame. 2 Nature in every dress Her humble homage pays, And finds a thousand ways t' express thine undissembled praise. 3 My soul would rise and sing To her Creator too, Fain would my tongue adore my King, And pay the worship due. 4 [But pride, that busy sin, Spoils all that I perform, Curs'd pride, that creeps securely in, And swells a haughty worm.] 5 Create my soul anew, Else all my worship's vain; This wretched heart will ne'er be true, Until 'tis form'd again. 6 Let joy and worship spend The remnant of my days, And to my God, my soul ascend In sweet perfumes of praise.

And is the gospel peace and love?

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #III (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 And is the gospel peace and love? Such let our conversation be; The serpent blended with the dove, Wisdom and meek simplicity. 2 Whene'er the angry passions rise, And tempt our thoughts or tongues to strife On Jesus let us fix our eyes, Bright pattern of the Christian life. 3 O how benevolent and kind! How mild! how ready to forgive! Be this the temper of our mind, And these the rules by which we live. 4 To do his heav'nly Father's will, Was his employment and delight: Humility and holy zeal Shone thro' his life divinely bright. 5 Dispensing good where'er he came, The labours of his life were love: If then we love the Saviour's name, Let his divine example move!

And let this feeble body fail

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #IV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And let this feeble body fail, And let it faint and die, My soul shall quit the mournful vale, And soar to worlds on high? Shall join the disembody'd saints, And find its long sought rest, That only bliss for which it pants, In the Redeemer's breast. 2 In hope of that immortal crown, I now the cross sustain, And gladly wonder up and down, And smile at toil and pain. I suffer on my threescore years Till my deliv'rer come, And wipe away his servant's tears, And take his exile home. 3 O what hath Jesus bought for me! Before my ravish'd eyes Rivers of life divine I see, And trees of paradise! I see a world of Spirits bright, Who taste the pleasures there! The all are rob'd in spotless white, And conqu'ring palms they bear. 4 O what are all my suff'rings here If Lord, thou count me meet With that enraptur'd host t'appear, And worship at thy feet! Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, Take life or friends away: But let me find them all again In that eternal clay. Languages: English

And must I be to judgment brought

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #V (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 And must I be to judgment brought, And answer in that day For ev'ry vain and idle thought, And ev'ry word I say? 2 Yes, ev'ry secret of my heart Shall shortly be made known, And I receive my just desert, For all that I have done. 3 How careful then ought I to live; With what religious fear; Who such a strict account must give For my behaviour here! 4 Thou awful Judge of quick and dead, The watchful pow'r bestow! So shall I to my ways take heed, To all I speak or do. 5 If now thou "standest at the door," O let me feel thee near! And make my peace with God, before I at the thy bar appear. Languages: English

Arise, my soul, arise

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #VI (1816) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, arise, Shake off thy guilty fears, The bleeding Sacrifice In my behalf appears; Before the throne my Saviour stands: My name is written on his hands. 2 He ever lives above, For me to intercede; With his redeeming love, His precious blood to plead; His blood was spilt for all our race, And sprinkles now the throne of grace. 3 Five bleeding wounds he bears, Receiv'd on Calvary; They pour effectual prayers, They strongly speak for me: Forgive him, O forgive they cry! Nor let that ransom'd sinner die. 4 The Father hears him pray, His dear annointed one; He cannot turn away The presence of his Son: His Spirit answers to the blood, And tells me I am born of God. 5 To God I'm reconcil'd, His pard'ning voice I hear: He owns me for his child, I can no longer fear: With confidence I now draw nigh, And Father, Abba Father! cry.

As birds their infant brood protect

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #VII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 As birds their infant brood protect And spread their wings to shelter them; Thus saith the Lord to his elect, "So shall I guard Jerusalem." 2 And what then is Jerusalem, This darling object of his care? Where is its worth in God's esteem? Who built it?--who inhabits there? 3 Jehovah founded it in blood, The blood of his incarnate Son; There dwell the saints, once foes to God The sinners whom he calls his own. 4 There, though besieg'd on ev'ry side, Yet much belov'd and guarded well; From age to age they have defied The utmost force of earth and hell. 5 Let earth repent, and hell despair, This city hath a sure defence; Her name is call'd "The Lord is there," And who has power to drive them thence. Scripture: Ezekiel 48:35 Languages: English

Ascend thy throne, almighty King

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #VIII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ascend thy throne, almighty King, And spread thy glories all abroad; Let thine own arm salvation bring, And be thou known the gracious God. 2 Let millions bow before thy seat, Let humble mourners seek thy face, Bring daring rebels to thy feet, Subdued by thy victorious grace. 3 O let the kingdoms of the world Become the kingdoms of the Lord; Let saints, and angels praise thy name, Be thou thro' heaven and earth ador'd. Scripture: Matthew 6:10 Languages: English

Awake, Jerusalem, awake

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #IX (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake, Jerusalem, awake, No longer in thy sins lie down: The garment of salvation take, Thy beauty and thy strength put on. 2 Shake off the dust that blinds thy sight, And hides the promise from thine eyes, Arise and struggle into light, Thy great Deliv'rer calls, Arise! 3 Shake off the bands of sad despair, Sion assert thy liberty, Look up, thy broken heart prepare, And God shall set the captive free. 4 Vessels of mercy, sons of grace, Be purg'd from ev'ry sinful stain, Be like your Lord, his word embrace, Nor bear his hallow'd name in vain. 5 The Lord shall in your front appear, And lead the pompous triumph on; His glory shall bring up the rear, And perfect what his grace begun.

Awake my zeal, awake my love

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #X (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Awake my zeal, awake my love, And serve my Saviour here below, In works which all the saints above, Which holy angels cannot do. 2 My faith and hope may see the Lord, Though veils of darkness lie between; Hope shall rest firm upon his word, And faith rejoice in things unseen. 3 Awake my charity, and feed The hungry soul and clothe the poor; In heav'n are found no sons in need, There all these duties are no more. 4 Subdue thy passions, O my soul Maintain the fight, the work pursue, Daily thy rising sins controul, And be thy vict'ries ever new. 5 The land of triumph lies on high, There are no fields of battle there, Lord I would conquer till I die, And finish all the glorious war. 6 Let every flying hour confess I gain thy gospel fresh renown; And when my life and labours cease, May I possess the promis'd crown.

Behold the Saviour of mankind

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #XV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Behold the Saviour of mankind Nail'd to the shameful tree. How vast the love that him inclin'd To bleed and die for thee! 2 Hark, how he groans! while nature shakes, And earth's strong pillars bend! The temple's veil in sunder breaks, The solid marbles bend. 3 'Tis done! the precious ransom's paid; "Receive my soul!" he cries: See where he bows his sacred head! He bows his head and dies! 4 But soon he'll break death's envious chain, And in full glory shine. O Lamb of God! was ever pain, Was ever love like thine! Languages: English

Bless, O my soul, the living God

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #XVII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Bless, O my soul, the living God; Call home thy thoughts that rove abroad, Let all the pow'rs within me join In work and worship so divine. 2 Bless, O my soul, the God of grace; His favours claim thy highest praise; Why should ungrateful silence hide The blessings which his hands provide? 3 'Tis he, my soul, that sent his Son To die for crimes which thou hast done; He owns the ransom, and forgives The hourly follies of our lives. 4 The vices of the mind he heals, And cures the pains that nature feels-- Redeems the soul from hell, and saves Our wasting life from threat'ning graves. 5 Our youth decay'd his pow'r repairs; His mercy crowns our growing years; He fills our store with ev'ry good, And feeds our souls with heav'nly food. 6 He sees th' oppressor and th' opprest, And often gives the suff'rer rest; But will his justice more display In the last great rewarding day.

Blessed are the sons of God

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #XVI (1816) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 Blessed are the sons of God, They are bought with Jesu's blood, They are ransom'd from the grave, Life eternal they shall have. With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity! 2 God did leave them to his Son, Long before the world begun; They the seal of this receive When on Jesus they believe. With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity! 3 They are justify'd by grace, They enjoy a solid peace; All their sins are wash'd away, They shall stand in God's great day. With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity! 4 They produce the fruits of grace, In the works of righteousness! Born of God, they hate all sin, God's pure seed remains within. With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity! 5 They have fellowship with God Thro' the Mediator's blood; One with God, thro' Jesus one, Glory is in them begun. With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity! 6 Tho' they suffer much on earth, Strangers to the worldlings mirth, Yet they have an inward joy, Pleasures which can never cloy, With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity! 7 They alone are truly blest, Heirs of God, joint heirs with Christ; They with love and peace are fill'd, They are by his Spirit seal'd: With them number'd may we be, Now and thro' eternity!

By faith I live, by faith I see

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #XIX (1816) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 By faith I live, by faith I see, That Jesus gave his life for me; By faith I venture on his grace, And through his blood my sines efface. 2 Yet faith alone will not suffice, To bring me to that Paradise; That heaven, where holy angels dwell, And souls redeem'd from death and hell. 3 Our works on earth are works of love, Which frame our minds for things above, And if we would on Christ depend, His blessed voice we should attend. 4 To blend the two in one we see, How faith and works do sweet agree; And through their influence we shall find, A God most gracious, good and kind. 5 Them let us learn to watch and pray, And strive to walk the narrow way; And if we would true pleasure find, Our sins must all be left behind. 6 Thus when we leave this world of woe, A witness we shall leave below; That ages yet unborn may see, The right we have to liberty.

Who hears our solemn vow; And if thou art well pleas'd to hear, Come down and meet us now! 5 Thee, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, let all our hearts receive; Present with the celestial host, The peaceful answer give. 6 To each cov'nant the blood apply Which takes our sins away; And register our names on high, And keep us to that day.

Assist me with thy heav'nly grace; Empty my heart of earthly love, And for thyself prepare the place. 2 O let thy sacred presence fill, And set my longing spirit free! Which pants to have not other will, But night and day to feast on thee. 3 While in this region here below, No other good will I pursue: I'll bid this world of noise and show, With all its glitt'ring snares adieu. 4 That path with humble speed I'll seek, In which my Saviour's footsteps shine; Now will I hear, nor will I speak, Of any other love but thine. 5 Henceforth may no profane delight Divide this consecrated soul: Possess it thou who hast the right, As Lord and master of the whole. 6 Nothing on earth do I desire, But thy pure love within my breast; This only this, will I require, And freely give up all the rest.

Earth has engross'd my love too long

Hymnal: SHVA1816 #XXVI (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Earth has engross'd my love too long; 'Tis time I lift mine eyes Upward, dear Father, to thy throne, And to my native skies. 2 There the blest Man my Saviour sits; The God! how bright he shines! And scatters infinite delights On all the happy minds. 3 Seraphs with elevated strains, Circle the throne around: And move and charm the starry plains, With an immortal sound. 4 Jesus, the Lord, their harps employs; Jesus, my love, they sing; Jesus, the life of both our joys, Sounds sweet from every string. 5 [Hark, how beyond the narrow bounds Of time and space they run; And echo in majestic sounds The Godhead of the Son! 6 And now they sink the lofty tune, And gentler notes they play; And bring the Father's equal down To dwell in humble clay. 7 O sacred beauties of the Man! (The God resides within:) His flesh all pure without a stain; His soul without a sin: 9 But, when to Calvary they turn, Silent their harps abide: Suspended songs, a moment, mourn The God that lov'd and died. 10 Now let me mount and join their song, And be an angel too; My heart, my hand, my ear, my tongue, Here's joyful work for you. 11 I would begin the music here, And so my soul would rise: O for some heavenly notes to bear My passions to the skies! 12 There ye that love my Saviour sit: There I would fain have place, Among your thrones, or at your feet, So I might see his face.

He, whose word can not be broken, Form'd thee for his own abode; On the rock of ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation's walls surrounded Thou may'st smile at all thy foes. 2 [See! the streams of living waters Springing from eternal love, Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove: Who can faint when such a river Ever flows their thirst t' assuage? Grace, which like the Lord the giver, Never fails from age to age. 3 Round each habitation hovering See the cloud and fire appear! For a glory and a covering, Shewing that the Lord is near: Thus deriving from their banner Light by night and shade by day, Safe they feed upon the manna Which he gives them when they pray. 4 Blest inhabitants of Zion, Wash'd in the Redeemer's blood! Jesus, whom their souls rely on, Makes them kings and priests to God; 'Tis his love his people raises Over self to reign as kings, And as priests, his solemn praises Each for a thank-offering brings. 5 Saviour, if of Zion's city I thro' grace a member am; Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in thy name; Fading is the worldling's pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show! Solid joys and lasting treasure, None but Zion's children know. Scripture: Isaiah 33:20-21 Languages: English
