Though trouble springs not from the dust

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #R5 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Though trouble springs not from the dust, nor sorrow from the ground; yet ills on ills, by Heav’n’s decree, in man’s estate are found. 2 As sparks in close succession rise, so man, the child of woe, is doom'd to endless cares and toils through all his life below. 3 But with my God I leave my cause; from him I seek relief; to him, in confidence of pray'r unbosom all my grief. 4 Unnumbered are his wondrous works, unsearchable his ways; ’tis his the mourning soul to cheer, the bowed down to raise.

Soon shall this earthly frame, dissolv'd

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #R51b (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Soon shall this earthly frame, dissolv'd, in death and ruins lie; but better mansions wait the just, prepar'd above the sky. 2 An house eternal, built by God, shall lodge the holy mind; When once those prison-walls have fall’n by which ‘tis now confined. 3 Hence, burden'd with a weight of clay, we groan beneath the load, waiting the hour which sets us free, and brings us home to God. 4 We know, that when the soul, uncloth'd, shall from this body fly, ’twill animate a purer frame with life that cannot die. 5 Such are the hopes that cheer the just; these hopes their God hath giv’n; his Spirit is the earnest now, and seals their souls for heav’n. 6 We walk by faith of joys to come, faith grounded on his word; but while this body is our home, we mourn an absent Lord. 7 What faith rejoices to believe, we long and pant to see; we would be absent from the flesh, and present, Lord! with thee. 8 But still, or here, or going hence, to this our labours tend, that, in his service spent, our life may in his favour end. 9 For, Lo! before the Son, as judge, th’ assembled world shall stand, to take the punishment or prize from his unerring hand. 10 Impartial retributions then our different lives await; our present actions, good or bad, shall fix our future fate.

I'm not asham'd to own my Lord

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #R54b (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 I'm not asham'd to own my Lord, or to defend his cause, maintain the glory of his cross, and honour all his laws. 2 Jesus, my Lord! I know his name, his name is all my boast; nor will he put my soul to shame, nor let my hope be lost. 3 I know that safe with him remains, protected by his pow'r, what I've committed to his trust, till the decisive hour. 4 Then will he own his servant's name before his Father's face, and in the New Jerusalem appoint my soul a place.

That man hath perfect blessedness

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P1 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 That man hath perfect blessedness who walketh not astray in counsel of ungodly men, nor stands in sinners’ way, nor sitteth in the scorner’s chair: 2 But placeth his delight upon God’s law, and meditates on his law day and night. 3 He shall be like a tree that hath been planted by a river, which in its season yields his fruit, and his leaf fadeth never: and all he doth shall prosper well. 4 The wicked are not so; but like they are unto the chaff, which wind drives to and fro. 5 In judgment therefore shall not stand such as ungodly are; nor in the assembly of the just shall wicked men appear. 6 Because the way of godly men unto the Lord is known; whereas the way of wicked men shall quite be overthrown.

I know the power in whom I trust, The arm on which I lean; He will my Savior ever be Who has my Savior been. 4. My God, who causedst me to hope When life began to beat, And, when a stranger in the world, Didst guide my wandering feet. 5. Thou wilt not cast me off when age And evil days descend; Thou wilt not leave me in despair To mourn my latter end. 6. Therefore in life I’ll trust in Thee, In death I will adore; And after death will sing Thy praise When time shall be no more. Languages: English Tune Title: ST. PETER (Reinagle)

To render thanks unto the Lord

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymnbook #P92b (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 To render thanks unto the Lord it is a comely thing, and to thy name, O thou Most High, due praise aloud to sing: 2 thy loving-kindness to show forth when shines the morning light; and to declare thy faithfulness with pleasure every night. 3 upon a ten-stringed instrument, and on the psaltery, upon the harp with solemn sound and grave sweet melody. 4 For thou, Lord, by thy mighty deeds hast gladness to me brought; and I will triumph in the works which by thy hands are wrought. 5 How great and wondrous, Lord, thy works! thy thought how deep it is! 6 A brutish man discerneth not, fools understand not this. 7 When even like unto the grass springs up the wicked race, and workers of iniquity do flourish all apace; 'Tis that cut off and quite destroyed they may for ever be: 8 but thou, O Lord, art throned on high, unto eternity. 9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Lord, thine enemies perish shall; the workers of iniquity shall be dispersed all. 10 But like the unicorn's, my horn exalted is by thee: anointed also with fresh oil I am abundantly. 11 Mine eyes shall also my desire see on mine enemies; mine ears shall of the wicked hear, that do against me rise. 12 But like the palm-tree flourishing shall be the righteous one; he shall like to the cedar grow that is in Lebanon. 13 Those that within the house of God are planted by his grace, they shall grow up, and flourish all in our God’s holy place. 14 And in old age, when others fade, they fruit still forth shall bring; they shall be fat and full of sap, and aye be flourishing; 15 to show that upright is the Lord: he is a rock to me; and he from all unrighteousness is altogether free.

Approach, my soul, the mercy-seat

Author: John Newton, 1725-1807 Hymnal: CPWI Hymnal #482 (2010) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Approach, my soul, the mercy-seat, where Jesus answers prayer; there humbly fall before his feet, for none can perish there. 2 Thy promise is my only plea, with this I venture nigh; thou callest burdened souls to thee, and such, O Lord, am I. 3 Bowed down beneath a load of sin, by Satan sorely pressed, by war without, and fear within, I come to thee for rest. 4 Be thou my shield and hiding place, that, sheltered near thy side, I may my fierce accuser face, and tell him, thou hast died. 5 Oh wondrous Love, to bleed and die, to bear the cross and shame, that guilty sinners, such as I, might plead thy gracious name!

When shall my labors have an end? Thy joys when shall I see? 6 O Christ, do Thou my soul prepare For that bright home of love That I may see Thee and adore, With all Thy saints above. Amen.
