And makes us anticipate heaven. Languages: English

Be all the glory thine. Languages: English

(A favour bestowed, we hope not in vain)
To hear from our Saviour the word of his grace;
Then be our behaviour becoming the place.
2 Remember the ends for which we are met;
Alas! my dear friends, we’re apt to forget;
The motives that brought us, the Lord only sees;
But if he has taught us, our ends should be these:
3 To worship the Lord with praise and with prayer;
To practise his word, as well as to hear,
To own with contrition the deeds we have done,
And take the remission God gives in his Son.
4 Blest Spirit of Christ, descend on us thus;
Thy servant assist; teach him to teach us;
O send us thy unction, to teach us all good;
And touch with compunction, and sprinkle with blood.

Breathing after Heavenly Things
Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #XCIII (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: To thee, my God, I hourly sigh Lyrics: 1 To thee, my GOD, I hourly sigh,
But not for golden stores;
Nor covet I the brightest gems,
On the rich eastern shores.
2 Nor that deluding empty joy,
Men call a mighty name;
Nor greatness in it gayest forms,
My restless thoughts enflame.
3 Nor pleasure's soft enticing charms,
My fond desires allrue;
Far greater things than earth can yield,
My wishes would secure.
4 Those blissful, those transporting smiles,
That brighten Heav'n above;
The boundless riches of thy grace,
And treasures of thy love.
5 These are the mighty things I crave:
O! make these blessings mine;
And all the glories of the world
I gladly will resign. Languages: English

Christ's Intercession
Author: Toplady Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #LXIII (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Awake, sweet gratitude and sing Lyrics: 1 Awake, sweet gratitude and sing,
Th' ascended Saviour's love;
Sing how he lives to carry on,
His people's cause above.
2 For all that come to God by him,
Salvation he demands;
Points to their names upon his breast,
And spreads his wounded hands.
3 His sweet atoning sacrifice,
Gives sanction to his claim:
"Father, I will that all my saints,
"Be with me where I am:
4 "By their salvation, recompense,
"Th sorrows I endur'd;
"Just to the merits of thy son,
"And faithful to thy word."
5 Eternal life, at his request,
To every saint is given:
Safety on Earth, and, after death,
The plenitude of Heaven. Languages: English

The Kingdom of God, not in word, but in power
Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #LXV (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: A form of words tho' e'er so sound Lyrics: 1 A form of words tho' e'er so sound
Can never save a soul,
The Holy Ghost must give the wound,
And make the wounded whole.
2 Though God's election is a truth,
Small comfort there I see,
Till I am told by GOD's own mouth,
That he has chosen me.
3 Sinners, I read, are justified,
By faith in JESUS' blood:
But when to me that blood's appli'd,
'Tis then I've peace with GOD.
4 Imputed righteousness I own
A doctrine most divine;
For JESIS to my heart makes known,
That all his merit's mine.
5 To perseverance I agree;
The thing to me is clear;
Because the LORD has promis'd me,
That I shall persevere.
6 Thus christians glorify the LORD;
His Spirit joins with ours,
In bearing Witness to his word,
With all its saving pow'rs.

The Kingdom of God, not in word, but in power
A Godly sorrow for Christ's sufferings
Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #LXXXIII (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Alas! and did my Savior bleed! Lyrics: 1 Alas! and did my Saviour bleed!
And did my sov'reign die;
Wou'd he devote that sacred head
For such a worm as I?
2 Was it for crimes that I had done,
He groan'd upon the tree?
Amazing pity! grace unknown!
And love beyond degree.
3 Well might the sun in darkness hide,
And shut his glories in;
When Christ the mighty Saviour dy'd
For man the creature's sin.
4 Thus might I hide my blushing face,
While his dear cross appears,
Dissolve my heart in tenderness,
And melt my eyes to tears.
5 But drops of grief can ne'er repay
The debt of love we owe;
Here, Lord, I give myself away,
'Tis all that I can do. Languages: English

Watchfulness and Prayer
Author: Steel Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #LXXXIX (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Alas what hourly dangers rise Lyrics: 1 Alas, what hourly dangers rise!
What snares beset my way!
To Heaven O let me lift mine eyes,
And hourly watch and pray.
2 How oft my mournful thoughts complain,
And melt in flowing tears;
My weak resistance, ah! how vain!
How strong my foes and fears!
3 O gracious GOD, in whom I live,
My feeble efforts aid,
Help me to watch, and pray, and strive,
Tho' trembling and afraid.
4 Increase my faith, Increase my hope,
When foes and fears prevail;
And bear my fainting spirits up,
Or soon my strength will fail.
5 When ere temptations fright my heart,
Or lure my feet aside,
My God, thy powerful aid impart,
My guardian and my guide.
6 O keep me in thy heavenly way,
And bid the tempter flee;
And let me never, never stray
From happiness and thee.

All gracious God, thy people bless
Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CLII (1790) Topics: After Sermon Lyrics: 1 All gracious God thy people bless
Enrich their souls with ev'ry grace
May all receive thy precious word,
Ascribing glory to the LORD.
2 Let careless sinners now attend,
Before the means! and life shall end;
Excite attention to thy voice,
And bid the troubl'd soul rejoice.
3 Tho' from thy temple we depart,
Yet deign to dwell in evy'r heart'
Keep us in all our ways, and be:
Our portion to eternity. Scripture: Psalm 145 Languages: English

Almighty God of truth and love
Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CVII (1790) Topics: After Sermon Lyrics: 1 Almighty GOD of truth and love
In me thy pow'r exert;
The mountain from my soul remove,
The hardness of my heart;
My most obdurate heart subdue,
In honour of thy Son,
And now the gracious wonder shew,
And take away the stone.
2 I want a principle within,
Of jealous, godly fear;
A sensibility of sin,
A pain to feel it near:
I want the first approach to feel
Of pride, or vain desire,
To catch the wand'rings of my will,
And quench the kindling fire.
3 From thee that I no more depart,
No more thy goodness grieve,
The filial awe, the fleshly heart,
The tender conscience give:
Quick as the apple of an eye,
O GOD! my conscience make:
Awake my soul when sin is nigh,
And keep it still awake.
Scripture: Ezekiel 36:26 Languages: English

Holy Fortitude
Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #XCVII (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Am I a soldier of the cross? Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross?
A follower of the Lamb?
And shall I fear to own his cause?
Or blush to speak his name?
2 Must I be carry'd to the skies
On flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
And sail'd through bloody seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to GOD?
4 Sure I must fight if I would reign;
Increase my courage LORD:
I'll bear the cross, endure the pain,
Supported by thy word.
5 Thy saints, in all this glorious war,
Shall conquer though they die;
They see the triumph from afar,
And seize it with their eye.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all thy armies shine,
In robes of vic'try through the skies,
The glory shall be thine. Languages: English

For New Year's Day
Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #LXXVI (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: And now, my soul another year Lyrics: 1 And now, my soul another year
Of thy short life is past.
I cannot long continue here,
And this may be my last.
2 Much of my dubious life is gone,
Nor will return again;
And swift my passing moments run,
And few that yet remain.
3 Awake, my soul, with utmost care
Thy true condition learn;
What are thy hopes, how sure, how fair
And what thy great concern.
4 Now a new scene of time begins,
Set out afresh for Heaven;
Seek pardon for thy former sins,
In Christ so freely given.
5 Devoutly yield thyself to God,
And on his grace depend;
With zeal pursue the heav'nly road,
Nor doubt a happy end.

The Heavenly guest
Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CVIII (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: And will the Lord thus condescend Lyrics: 1 And will the LORD thus condescend
To visit sinful worms?
Thus at the door shall mercy stand,
In all her winning forms?
2 Surprizing grace! — and shall my heart
Unmov'd and cold remain?
Has this hard rock no tender part?
Must mercy please in vain?
3 Shall JESIS for admission sue,
His charming voice unheard?
And this vile heart, his rightful due,
Remain for ever barr'd?
4 'Tis sin, alas! with tyrant power,
The lodging has possess'd;
And crouds of traitors bar the door
Against the heav'nly guest.
5 LORD, rise in thy all conqu'ring grace,
Thy mighty power display;
One beam of glory from thy face
Can drive my foes away.
6 Ye dangerous inmates, hence depart;
Dear Saviour enter in,
And guard the passage to my heart,
And keep out ev'ry sin. Scripture: Revelation 3:20 Languages: English

Safety in God
Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #LXXV (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Arise, my soul, my joyful pow'rs Lyrics: 1 Arise, my soul, my joyful pow'rs,
And triumph in my God;
Awake, my voice, and loud proclaim
His glorious grace abroad.
2 He rais'd me from the deeps of sin,
The gates of gaping hell,
And fix'd my standing more secure,
Than 'twas before I fell.
3 The arms of everlasting love,
Beneath my soul he plac'd,
And on the rock of ages set
My slipp'ry footsteps fast.
4 The city of my bless'd abode
Is wall'd around with grace;
Salvation for a bulwark stands
To shield the sacred place.
4 Satan may vent his sharpest spite,
And all his legions roar;
Almighty mercy guards my life,
And bounds his raging pow'r.
5 Arise, my soul; awake, my voice,
And tunes of pleasure sing;
Loud hallelujahs shall address
My Savior and my King. Languages: English

Awake, and sing the song
Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CLXIII (1790) Topics: After Sermon Lyrics: 1 Awake and sing the song
Of Moses and the Lamb;
Wake ev'ry heart and ev'ry tongue
To praise the Saviour's name.
2 Sing of his dying love,
Sing of his rising pow'r,
Sing how he intercedes above
For those whose sins he bore.
3 Sing till we feel our hearts,
Ascending with our tongues,
Sing 'till the love os sin departs,
And grace inspires our songs.
4 Sing on your heav'nly way,
Ye ransom'd sinners sing;
Sing on, rejoicing ev'ry day,
In Christ the eternal King.
5 Soon shall ye hear him say,
"Ye blessed children come;"
Soon will he call you hence away,
And take his wand'rers home.

And raise your voices high;
Away, and praise that sovereign love
Which shews salvation nigh.
2 On all the wings of time it flies,
Each moment brings it near:
Then welcome each declining day;
And each revolving year!

Nor many mornings rise,
Ere all its glories stand reveal'd
To our admiring eyes.

Ye mortal powers, decay;
Fast as ye bring the night of death,
Ye bring eternal day. Languages: English
