Author: Joseph Hart Hymnal: HCVS1759 #28 (1759) Lyrics: 1. Descend from heaven, celestial Dove, With flames of pure seraphic love, Our ravished breasts inspire; Fountain of joy, blest Paraclete, Warm our cold hearts with heavenly heat, And set our souls on fire. 2. Breathe on these bones, so dry and dead; Thy sweetest, softest influence shed, In all our hearts abroad. Point out the place where grace abounds; Direct us to the bleeding wounds Of our incarnate God. 3. Conduct, blest guide, thy sinner-train To Calvary where the Lamb was slain; And with us there abide. Let us our loved Redeemer meet, Weep o’er his pierced hands and feet, And view his wounded side. 4. From which pure fountain if thou draw Water to quench the fiery law, And blood to purge our sin. We’ll tell the Father in that day, (And thou shalt witness what we say) We’re clean, just God, we’re clean. 5. Teach us for what to pray, and how; And since, kind God, ‘tis only thou The throne of grace can move, Pray thou for us that we, through faith, May feel the effects of Jesus’ death, Through faith that works by love. 6. Thou, with the Father and the Son, Art that mysterious three in one, God blest for evermore; Whom though we cannot comprehend, Feeling thou art the sinner’s friend, We love thee, and adore.

Jabez's Prayer

Hymnal: HCVS1759 #44 (1759) First Line: A saint there was in days of old Lyrics: 1. A saint there was in days of old, Though we but little of him hear, In honour high: Of whom is told A short but an effectual prayer. This prayer, my brethren, let us view; And try if we can pray so too. 2. He called on Israel’s God, ‘tis said. Let us take notice first of that: Had he to any other prayed, To us it had not mattered what. For all true Israelites adore One God, Immanuel, and no more. 3. Oh! that thou wouldst me bless indeed; “And that thou wouldst enlarge my bound; And let thy hand in every need A Guide and help be with me found; That thou wouldst cause that evil be No cause of pain and grief to me.” 4. What is it to be blessed indeed, But to have all our sins forgiven; To be from guilt and terror freed. Redeemed from hell, and sealed for heaven; To worship an incarnate God, And know he saved us by his blood? 5. And next to have our coast enlarged. Is, that our hearts extend their plan, From bondage and from fear discharged, And filled with love to God and man: To cast off every narrow thought; And use the freedom Christ has bought. 6. To use this Liberty aright. And not the Grace of God abuse, We always need his hand, his might; Left what he gives us we should lose; Spiritual pride would soon creep in. And turn his very grace to sin. 7. This prayer, so long ago preferred. Is left on sacred record thus. And this good prayer by God was heard; And kindly handed down to us. Thus Jabez prayed (for that’s his name) Let all believers pray the same. Languages: English

Whitsunday

Hymnal: HCVS1759 #45 (1759) First Line: When the blest day of Pentecost Lyrics: 1. When the blest day of Pentecost Was fully come; the Holy Ghost Descended from above, Sent by the Father and the Son, (The sender and the sent are one) The Lord of life and love. 2. Within one house, with one accord, The faithful followers of our Lord Waiting his promise sit; That vested with supernal Power They might be then, and not before, To preach the gospel fit. 3. Sudden a rushing wind they hear; And fiery cloven tongues appear; It sat on every one. Cloven, perhaps, to be the sign That God no longer would confine His word to Jesus alone. 4. To every nation under heaven To hear the gospel-sound is given; The call to all extends. As ours was parted long ago; So God divides his language too, And after sinners sends. 5. And were these first disciples blest With heavenly gifts? And shall the rest Be passed unheeded by? What! Has the Holy Spirit forgot To quicken souls that Christ has bought; And lets them lifeless lie? 6. No, thou almighty Paraclete; Thou sheddest thy heavenly influence yet; Thou visitest sinners still: Thy breath of life, thy quickening flame, Thy power, thy Godhead, still the same, We own; because we feel.
