My spirit looks to God alone

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SH1991 #26 (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1. My spirit looks to God alone,My rock and refuge is His throne;In all my fears, in all my straits,My soul on His salvation waits.Trust Him ye saints in all your ways,Pour out your hearts before His face;When helpers fail, and foes invade,God is our all-sufficient aid.2. Make not increasing gold your trust,Nor set your hearts on glitt’ring dust;Why will you grasp the fleeting smoke,And not believe what God hath spoke?For sov’reign pow’r reign not alone,Grace is the partner of the throne;Thy grace and justice mighty Lord,Shall well divide our last reward.

O for a closer walk with God

Author: William Cowper Hymnal: SH1991 #27 (1991) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 O for a closer walk with God, A calm and heav’nly frame, A light to shine upon the road That leads me to the Lamb! 2 Where is the blessedness I knew, When first I saw the Lord? Where is the soul-refreshing view Of Jesus and His word? 3 What peaceful hours I once enjoyed! How sweet their mem’ry still! But they have left an aching void The world can never fill. 4 Return O holy Dove, return, Sweet messenger of rest! I hate the sins that made Thee mourn, And drove Thee from my breast. 5 The dearest idol I have known, Whate’er that idol be, Help me to tear it from Thy throne, And worship only Thee. 6 So shall my walk be close with God, Calm and serene my frame, So purer light shall mark the road That leads me to the Lamb.

The God we worship now

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SH1991 #28a (1991) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The God we worship now, Will guide us till we die, Will be our God while here below, And ours above the sky. 2 How decent and how wise! How glorious to behold, Beyond the pomp that charms the eye, And rites adorned with gold. 3 Far as Thy name is known, The world declares Thy praise; Thy saints, O Lord, before Thy throne Their songs of honor raise.

Life is the time to serve the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SH1991 #28b (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Life is the time to serve the Lord, The time t’insure the great reward; And while the lamp holds out to burn The vilest sinner may return. 2 Life is the hour that God has giv’n, To escape hell and fly to heav’n; The day of grace, and mortals may Secure the blessing of the day. 3 The living know that they must die, But all the dead forgotten lie; Their mem’ry and their sense is gone, Alike unknowing and unknown.

Come, humble sinner, in whose breast

Author: Edmund Jones Hymnal: SH1991 #29a (1991) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, humble sinner, in whose breast A thousand thoughts revolve, Come, with your guilt and fear oppressed, And make this last resolve. 2 I’ll go to Jesus, though my sin Hath like a mountain rose; I know His courts, I’ll enter in, Whatever may oppose. 3 I can but perish if I go, I am resolved to try, For if I stay away I know I must forever die.

Death, 'tis a melancholy day

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SH1991 #29b (1991) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Death, ’tis a melancholy day To those who have no God, When the poor soul is forced away, To seek her last abode. 2 In vain to heav’n she lifts her eyes, For guilt, a heavy chain, Still drags her downward from the skies To darkness, fire, and pain.

Why should we start and fear to die?

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SH1991 #30b (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Why should we start and fear to die? What tim’rous worms we mortals are! Death is the gate to endless joy, And yet we dread to enter there. 2 The pains, the groans, the dying strife, Fright our approaching souls away; And we shrink back again to life, Fond of our prison and our clay. 3 O if my Lord would come and meet, My soul would stretch her wings in haste, Fly fearless through death’s iron gate, Nor feel the terrors as she passed. 4 Jesus can make a dying bed Feel soft as downy pillows are; While on His breast I lean my head, And breathe my life out sweetly there.

Grace! 'Tis a charming sound

Author: Philip Doddridge Hymnal: SH1991 #31a (1991) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Grace! ’Tis a charming sound, Harmonious to the ear; Heav’n with the echo shall resound, And all the earth shall hear. 2 Grace first contrived the way To save rebellious man; And all the steps that grace display, Which drew the wondrous plan. 3 Grace taught my wand’ring feet To tread the heav’nly road; And new supplies each hour I meet, While pressing on to God. 4 Grace all the work shall crown Through everlasting days; It lays in heav’n the topmost stone, And well deserves our praise.

Come, we who love the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SH1991 #31b (1991) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Come, we who love the Lord, And let our joys be known: Join in a song with sweet accord And thus surround the throne. 2 Let those refuse to sing Who never knew our God; But servants of the heav’nly King May speak their joys abroad. 3 The God that rules on high, That all the earth surveys, That rides upon the stormy sky, And calms the roaring sea.

Jesus, and shall it ever be

Author: Joseph Grigg Hymnal: SH1991 #32a (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and shall it ever be, A mortal man ashamed of Thee? Ashamed of Thee whom angels praise, Whose glories shine through endless days. 2 Ashamed of Jesus! just as soon Let midnight be ashamed of noon; ’Tis midnight with my soul till He, Bright morning star, bids darkness flee. 3 Ashamed of Jesus, sooner far Let evening blush to own a star; He sheds the beams of light divine O’er this benighted soul of mine. 4 Ashamed of Jesus, that dear Friend On whom my hopes of heav’n depend! No, when I blush, be this my shame, That I no more revere His name. Languages: English Tune Title: CORINTH

So fades the lovely blooming flow'r

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: SH1991 #32b (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 So fades the lovely blooming flow’r, Frail, smiling solace of an hour; So soon our transient comforts fly, And pleasure only blooms to die. 2 Is there no kind, no healing art, To soothe the anguish of the heart? Spirit of grace, be ever nigh; Thy comforts are not made to die. 3 Let gentle patience smile on pain, Till dying hope revives again, Hope wipes the tear from sorrow’s eye, And faith points upward to the sky.

Did Christ o'er sinners weep?

Let floods of penitential grief Burst forth from ev’ry eye. 2 The Son of God in tears The wond’ring angels see; Be thou astonished, O my soul, He shed those tears for thee. 3 He wept that we might weep; Each sin demands a tear; In heav’n alone no sin is found, And there’s no weeping there.

Young ladies, all attention give

Hymnal: SH1991 #37a (1991) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Young ladies, all attention give, You that in wicked pleasures live; One of your sex, the other day, Was called by death’s cold hand away. 2 This lesson she has left for you, To teach the careless what to do; To seek Jehovah while you live, And everlasting honors give. 3 Her honored mother she addressed, While tears were streaming down her breast; She grasped her tender hands and said, “Remember me when I am dead.” 4 She called her father to her bed, And thus, in dying anguish said: "My days on earth are at an end, My soul is summoned to attend. 5 “Before Jehovah’s awful bar, To hear my awful sentence there; And now, dear father, do repent, And read the holy Testament.” Languages: English Tune Title: ESTER
