Liberality; or, the duty and pleasures of benevolence

Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCXLVI (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Benevolence a duty and pleasure First Line: O what stupendous mercy shines Lyrics: 1 O what stupendous mercy shines Around the majesty of heaven! Rebels he deigns to call his sons, Their souls renew'd their sins forgiven. 2 Go, imitate the grace divine, The grace that blazes like a sun; Hold forth your fair, tho' feeble light, Thro' all your lives let mercy run: 3 Upon your bounty's willing wings Swift let the great salvation fly; The hungry feed, the naked clothe, To pain and sickness help apply. 4 Pity the weeping widow's woe, And be her counsellor and stay; Adopt the fatherless, and smooth The useful, happy life his way. 5 Let age with want and weakness bow'd, Your bowels of compassion move; Let e'en your enemies be blest, Their hatred recompens'd with love. 6 When all is done, renounce your deeds, Renounce self-righteousness with scorn; Thus will you glorify your God, And thus the christian name adorn.

Come, we that love the Lord

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XXX (1766) Topics: Pleasure of Religion Lyrics: [1 Come, we that love the Lord, And let your Joys be known; Join in a Song with sweet Accord, And thus surround the Throne. 2 The Sorrows of the Mind Be banish'd from the Place! Religion never was design'd To make our Pleasure less.] 3 Let those refuse to sing That never knew our God, But Fav'rites of the Heav'nly King May speak their Joys abroad. [4 The God that rules on high, And thunders when he please, That rides upon the stormy Sky, And manages the Seas.] 5 This awful God is ours, Our Father and our Love, Thou shall send down his heav'nly Pow'rs To carry us above. 6 There we shall see his Face, And never, never sin; There, from the Rivers of thy Grace, Drink endless Pleasures in. 7 Yes, and before we rise To that immortal State, The Thoughts of such amazing Bliss. Should constant Joys create. 8 The Men of Grace have found Glory begun below; Celestial Fruits on earthly Ground From Faith and Hope may grow. 9 The Hill of Sion yields A thousand sacred Sweets, Before we reach the heav'nly Fields, Or walk the golden Streets. 10 Then let our Songs abound, And ev'ry Tear be dry; We're marching through Immanuel's Ground, To fairer Worlds on high.

Glory to God that walks the Sky

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LIX (1766) Topics: Pleasure of Religion Lyrics: 1 Glory to God that walks the Sky, And sends his Blessings through; That tells his Saints of Joys on high, And gives a Taste below. [2 Glory to God, that stoops his Throne, That Dust and Worms may see't, And brings a Glimpse of Glory down Around his sacred Feet. 3 When Christ, with all his Graces crown'd, Sheds his kind Beams abroad, 'Tis a young Heav'n on earthly Ground, And Glory in the Bud. 4 A blooming Paradise of Joy In this wild Desart springs; And ev'ry Sense I strait employ On sweet celestial Things. 5 White Lilies all around appear, And each his Glory shews; The Rose of Sharon blossoms here, The fairest Flow'r that blows. 6 Chearful I feast on heav'nly fruit, And drink the Pleasures down, Pleasures that flow hard by the Foot Of the Eternal Throne.] 7 But ah! how soon my Joys decay, How soon my Sins arise, And snatch the heav'nly Scene away From these lamenting Eyes! 8 When shall the Time, dear Jesus, when The shining Day appear, That I shall leave those Clouds of Sin, And Guilt and Darkness here? 9 Up to the Fields above the Skies My hasty Feet would go, There, everlasting Flow'rs arise, And Joys unwith'ring grow.

Day by Day and with Each Passing Moment

Author: Carolina Sandell Berg; Andrew L. Skoog Hymnal: The Worshiping Church #367 (1990) Meter: Irregular Topics: Pleasure; Pleasure Lyrics: 1 Day by day and with each passing moment, strength I find to meet my trials here; trusting in my Father’s wise bestowment, I’ve no cause for worry or for fear. He whose heart is kind beyond all measure gives unto each day what he deems best—- lovingly, its part of pain and pleasure, mingling toil with peace and rest. 2 Every day, the Lord himself is near me, with a special mercy for each hour; all my cares he wants to bear, to cheer me, he whose name is Counselor and Power. The protection of his child and treasure is a charge that on himself he laid: “As your days, your strength shall be in measure,” this the pledge to me he made. 3 Help me then in every tribulation so to trust thy promises, O Lord, that I lose not faith’s sweet consolation offered me within thy holy Word. Help me, Lord, when toil and trouble meeting, e'er to take, as from a father’s hand, one by one, the days, the moments fleeting, till I reach the promised land.
