When all thy mercies, O my God
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672 - 1719 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,001 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When all thy mercies, O my God,
My rising soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I’m lost
In wonder, love, and praise!
2 Unnumbered comforts to my soul
Thy tender care bestowed,
Before my infant heart conceived
From whom these comforts flowed!
3 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts
My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the last a cheerful heart
That tastes those gifts with joy.
4 Through every period of my life
Thy goodness I’ll pursue,
And after death, in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.
5 When nature fails, and day and night
Divide thy works no more,
My ever grateful heart, O Lord,
Thy mercies shall adore.
6 Through all eternity to thee
A joyful song I’ll raise;
But O, eternity’s too short,
To utter all thy praise!
Amen. Topics: The Life In Christ Thanksgiving Used With Tune: EAGLEY
When all thy mercies, O my God
Light of the Lonely Pilgrim's Heart

Star of the coming day,
Arise, and with Thy morning beams
Chase all our griefs away.
2. Come, blessèd Lord, bid every shore
And answering island sing
The praises of Thy royal name,
And own Thee as their king.
3. Bid the whole earth, responsive now
To the bright world above,
Break forth in rapturous strains of joy
In memory of Thy love.
4. Lord, Lord, Thy fair creation groans,
The air, the earth, the sea,
In unison with all our hearts,
And calls aloud for Thee.
5. Come, then, with all Thy quickening power
With one awakening smile,
And bid the serpent’s trail no more
Thy beauteous realms defile.
6. Thine was the cross, with all its fruits,
Of grace and peace divine;
Be Thine the crown of glory now,
The palm of victory Thine. Used With Tune: EAGLEY

From cares and business free,
’Tis sweet conversing on my bed,
With my own heart and Thee.

And when my work is done,
Great God, my faith and hope relies
Upon Thy grace alone.
4. Thus, with my thoughts composed to peace,
I’ll give mine eyes to sleep;
Thy hand in safety keeps my days,
And will my slumbers keep. Used With Tune: EAGLEY Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

Father Of Mercies, Send Thy Grace
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 178 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, send Thy grace
All powerful from above
To form in our obedient souls
The image of Thy love.
2 O may our sympathizing breasts
That generous pleasure know
Kindly to share in others’ joy,
And weep for others’ woe!
3 When the most helpless sons of grief
In low distress are laid,
Soft be our hearts their pains to feel,
And swift our hands to aid.
4 So Jesus looked on dying men,
When throned above the skies,
And ’midst th’embraces of His God
He felt compassion rise.
On wings of love the Savior flew
To raise us from the ground,
And made the richest of His blood
A balm for every wound. Used With Tune: EAGLEY Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scriptures, by Job Orton (J. Eddowes & J. Cotton, 1755)

My God, Thy Service Well Demands
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 98 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My God, Thy service well demands
The remnant of my days:
Why was this fleeting breath renewed,
But to renew Thy praise?
2 Thine arms of everlasting love
Did this weak frame sustain,
When life was hovering o’er the grave,
And nature sunk with pain.
3 Thou, when the pains of death were felt,
Didst chase the fears of hell,
And teach my pale and quivering lips
Thy matchless grace to tell.
4 Calmly I bowed my fainting head
On Thy dear faithful breast;
Pleased to obey my Father’s call
To His eternal rest.
5 Into Thy hands, my Savior God,
Did I my soul resign,
In firm dependence on that truth,
Which made salvation mine.
6 Back from the borders of the grave,
At Thy command I come:
Nor would I urge a speedier flight
To my celestial home.
7 Where Thou determine mine abode,
There would I choose to be;
For in Thy presence death is life,
And earth is Heav’n with Thee. Used With Tune: EADLEY Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scripture. By the Late Reverend Philip Doddridge, D. D., by Job Orton (J. Eddowes & J. Cotton: 1755)
