There Is a Land of Pure Delight
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,417 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a land of pure delight,
where saints immortal reign;
infinite day excludes the night,
and pleasures banish pain.
2 There everlasting spring abides,
and never-with'ring flow'rs;
death, like a narrow sea, divides
this heav'nly land from ours.
3 Sweet fields beyond the swelling flood
stand dressed in living green;
so to the Jews old Canaan stood,
while Jordan rolled between.
4 But tim'rous mortals start and shrink
to cross this narrow sea;
and linger, shiv'ring, on the brink,
and fear to launch away.
5 O could we make our doubts remove,
those gloomy doubts that rise,
and see the Canaan that we love
with unbeclouded eyes;
6 Could we but climb where Moses stood,
and view the landscape o'er,
not Jordan's stream, nor death's cold flood,
should fright us from the shore.

Lord, We Confess Our Numerous Faults
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 119 hymnals First Line: Lord, we confess our num'rous faults Lyrics: 1 Lord, we confess our num'rous faults,
How great our guilt has been:
Foolish and vain were all our thoughts,
And all our lives were sin.
2 But, O my soul, forever praise,
Forever love His Name,
Who turns Thy feet from dang'rous ways
Of folly, sin, and shame.
3 'Tis not by works of righteousness
Which our own hands have done;
But we are saved by sovereign grace
Abounding through His Son.
4 'Tis from the mercy of our God
That all our hopes begin;
'Tis by the water and the blood
Our souls are washed from sin.
5 'Tis through the purchase of His death
Who hung upon the tree
The Spirit is sent down to breathe
On such dry bones as we.
6 Raised from the dead, we live anew,
And, justified by grace,
We shall appear in glory too,
And see our Father's face.
