The joy of Conversion
Appears in 202 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: When God reveal'd his gracious name Lyrics: 1 When God reveal.d his gracious name
And chang'd my mournful state,
My raptures seem'd a pleasing dream,
The grace appear'd so great.
2 The world beheld the glorious change,
And did thy hand confess:
My tongue broke out in unknown strains,
And sung surprising grace.
3 Great is the work, my neighbours cry'd
And own'd the pow'r divine;
Great is thew ork, my heart reply'd,
And be the glory thine.
4 The Lord can clear the darkest skies,
Can give us day for night,
Make drops of sacred sorrow rise,
To rivers of delight.
5 Let those who sow in sadness wait,
'Till the fair harvest come;
They shall confess their sheaves are great
And shout the blessings home.
6 Tho' seed lie buried long in dust,
It shan't deceive their hope!
The precious grain can ne'er be lost,
For grace insures the crop. Scripture: Psalm 126
The joy of Conversion
How sad our state by nature is
Author: Dr. Watts Appears in 291 hymnals Topics: After Sermon Lyrics: 1 How sad our state by nature is!
Our sin, how deep it stains!
And satan binds our captive souls
Fast in his slavish chains.
2 But there's a voice of sov'reign grace
Sounds from GOD's sacred word;
"Ho! ye despairing sinners, come
"And trust upon the LORD."
3 O may we hear th' Almighty call,
And run to this relief;
We would believe thy promise, LORD,
O! help our unbelief.
4 To the blest fountain of thy blood,
Teach us, O LORD! to fly:
There may me wash my spotted souls
From crimes of deepest dye!
5 Stretch out thine arm, victorious King,
Our reigning sins subdue,
Drive the old dragon from his seat,
And form our souls anew.
6 Poor, guilty, weak and helpless worms,
On thy kind arm we fall;
Be thou our strength and righteousness,
Our JESUS and our All. Scripture: Zechariah 13:1
How sad our state by nature is
To the Holy Ghost
Appears in 397 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay Lyrics: 1 Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay;
Tho' I have done thee such despite,
Cast not a sinner quite away,
Nor take thine everlasting flight.
2 Tho' I have most unfaithful been,
Of all who e'er thy grace receiv'd;
Ten thousand times thy goodness seen,
Ten thousand times thy goodness griev'd.
3 But O! the chief of sinnes spare,
In honor of my great Hight Priest;
Nor in thy righteous anger swear
T' exclude me from thy people's rest.
4 If yet thou canst my sins forgive,
E'en now, O LORD, relieve my woes;
Into thy rest of love receive,
And bless me with a calm repose.
5 E'en now my weary soul release
And raise me by thy gracious hand;
Guide me into thy perfect peace,
And bring me to the promis'd land. Text Sources: The Coll.

Christ the Burden of the Song
Author: Cennick Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 230 hymnals Topics: Worship Hymns After Sermon First Line: Thou dear Redeemer, dying Lamb Lyrics: 1 Thou dear Redeemer dying Lamb,
We love to hear of thee;
No music's like thy charming name,
Nor half so sweet can be.
2 O let us ever hear thy voice,
In mercy to us speak,
And in our priest we will rejoice,
Thou great Melchisedec.
3 Our Jesus shall be still our theme,
While in this world we stay,
We'll sing our Jesu's lovely name,
When all things else decay:
4 When we appear in yonder cloud,
With all thy favor'd throng,
Then will we sing more sweet, more loud,
And Christ shall be our song.
Christ the Burden of the Song
Inconstancy
Appears in 34 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: Lord Jesus, when, when shall it be Lyrics: 1 Lord Jesus, when, when shall it be
That I no more shall break with thee
When will this war of passion cease,
And my free soul enjoy thy peace?
2 Here I repent and sin again;
Now I revive, and now am slain;
Slain with the same unhappy dart,
Which O! too often wounds my heart!
3 O Saviour, when, when shall I be,
A garden seal'd to all but thee?
No more expos'd, no more undone,
But live and grow to thee alone?
4 Guide thou, O Lord, guide thou my course
And draw me on with thy sweet force
Still make me walk, still make me tend;
By thee, my way, to God my end. Text Sources: The Coll.

God our only happiness
Author: Dr. Watts Appears in 253 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: My God, my portion, and my love Lyrics: 1 My God, my portion, and my love
My everlasting All!
I've none but thee in Heav'n above,
Or on this earthly ball.
2 What empty things are all the skies,
And this inferior clod!
There's nothing here deserves my joys,
There's nothing like my God.
3 In vain the bright, the burning sun,
Scatters his feeble light:
'Tis thy sweet beams create my noon;
If thou withdraw, 'tis night.
4 And whilst upon my restless bed,
Amidst the shades I roll,
If my Redeemer raise my head,
'Tis morning with my soul.
5 To thee we owe my wealth and friends,
And health, and safe abode:
We praise thy name for all these things;
But they are not our God.
6 Were I possessor of the earth,
And call'd the stars my own;
Without thy graces and thyself,
I were a wretch undone.
God our only happiness
Perseverance
Author: Hart Appears in 21 hymnals Topics: After Sermon First Line: The sinner that by precious faith Lyrics: 1 The sinner that by precious faith,
Has felt his sins forgiv'n,
Is from that moment, pass'd from death,
And seal'd an heir of Heaven.
2 Tho' thousand snares enclose his feet,
Not one shall hold him fast,
Whatever dangers he may meet,
He shall get safe at last.
3 Not as the world the Saviour gives,
He is no fickle friend:
Whom once he loves, he never leaves;
But loves him to the end.
4 For Christ in ev'ry age has prov'd
His purchase firm and true,
If this foundation be remov'd,
What shall the righteous do?
5 Brethren by this your claim abide,
This title to your bliss:
Whatever loss you bear beside,
O! never give up this.
Perseverance

While he shall preach thy gospel word;
May he declare delightful things,
Touching the glorious King of kings.

While he proclaims the gospel news;
With fiery zeal his soul inflame,
While he exalts the bleeding Lamb.

Shower down thy blessings from above;
O may we hear the Saviour’s voice,
And in his precious name rejoice.
