See, rebels by adopting grace Sit with the heirs of Heaven! 4 The pain'd, the sick, the dying, now To ease and health restor'd, With eager appetites partake The plenties of the board. 5 But O what draughts of bliss unknown, What dainties shall be given, When, with the myriads round the throne, We join the feast of Heaven? 6 There joys immeasurably high Shall overflow the soul, And springs of life, that never dry, In thousand channels roll.

A Rational Defence of the Gospel

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #LXI (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Scripture The Gospel; Gospel Rationally defended First Line: Shall Atheists dare insult the cross Lyrics: 1 Shall Atheists dare insult the cross Of our incarnate God? Shall Infidels revile his truth, And trample on his blood? 2 What if he choose mysterious ways To cleanse us from our faults? May not the works of sovereign grace Transcend our feeble thoughts? 3 What if his gospel bids us strive With flesh, and self, and sin? The prize is most divinely bright That we are call'd to win. 4 What if the men, despis'd on earth, Still of his grace partake? This but confirms his truth the more, For so the prophets spake. 5 Do some that own this sacred truth, Indulge their souls in sin? None should reproach the Savior's name, His laws are pure and clean. 6 Then let our faith be firm and strong, Our lips profess his word; Nor even shun those holy men, Who fear and love the Lord.

The Gospel is the Power of God to Salvation

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #LX (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Scripture The Gospel; Gospel The power of God to salvation First Line: What shall the dying sinner do Lyrics: 1 What shall the dying sinner do, That seeks relief for all his woe? Where shall the guilty conscience find Ease for the torment of the mind? 2 How shall we get our crimes forgiven, Or form our natures fit for heaven? Can souls, all o'er defil'd with sin Make their own powers and passions clean? 3 In vain we search, in vain we try, Till Jesus brings his gospel nigh; 'Tis there such power and glory dwell That save rebellious souls from hell. 4 This is the pillar of our hope That bears our fainting spirits up; We read the grace, we trust the word, And find salvation in the Lord. 5 Let men or angels dig the mines Where nature's golden treasure shines; Brought near the doctrine of the cross, All nature's gold appears but dross. 6 Should vile blasphemers with disdain, Pronounce the truths of Jesus vain, I'll meet the scandal and the shame, And sing, and triumph in his name.
