Behold the Morning Sun

Begins his glorious Way;
His Beams thro' all the Nations run,
And Life and Light convey.

It spreads diviner Light,
It calls dead Sinners from their Tombs,
And gives the Blind their Sight.
3 How perfect is thy Word!
And all thy Judgments just;
For ever sure thy Promise, Lord,
And Men securely trust.
4 My gracious GOD, how plain
Are thy Directions giv'n!
O may I never read in vain,
But find the Path to Heav'n.
Pause.
5 I hear thy Word with Love,
And I would fain obey;
Send thy good Spirit from above
To guide me, lest I stray.
6 O who can ever find
The Errors of his Ways?
Yet with a bold, presumptuous Mind
I would not dare transgress.
7 Warn me of ev'ry Sin,
Forgive my secret Faults,
And cleanse this guilty Soul of mine,
Whose Crimes exceed my Thoughts.
8 While with my Heart and Tongue
I spread thy Praise abroad;
Accept the Worship and the Song,
My Saviour and my GOD. Languages: English

Nor will he put my soul to shame,
Nor let my hope be lost.
Firm as his throne his promise stands,
And he can well secure
What I've committed to his hands
Till the decisive hour.
Then will he own my worthless name
Before his Father's face,
And in the new Jerusalem
Appoint my soul a place.

The King of saints, how fair his face,
Adorned with majesty and grace!
He comes with blessings from above,
And wins the nations to his love.
At his right hand our eyes behold
The queen arrayed in purest gold;
The world admires her heav'nly dress,
Her robe of joy and righteousness.
He forms her beauties like his own;
He calls and seats her near his throne:
Fair stranger, let thine heart forget
The idols of thy native state.
So shall the King the more rejoice
In thee, the favorite of his choice;
Let him be loved, and yet adored,
For he's thy Maker and thy Lord.
O happy hour, when thou shalt rise
To his fair palace in the skies,
And all thy sons (a numerous train)
Each like a prince in glory reign!
Let endless honors crown his head;
Let every age his praises spread;
While we with cheerful songs approve
The condescensions of his love.

Psalm 45 Part 2
Great God, the Heav'n's well order'd Frame
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P19d (1766) Topics: Book of Nature and Scripture; Evidence of Sincerity; Fear in the Worship of God; Gospel its glory and success; Knowledge deferred; Lord's Day Morning; Sincerity; Watchfulness; Works and grace Lyrics: 1 Great God, the Heav'n's well order'd Frame
Declares the Glories of thy Name:
There thy rich Works of Wonder shine,
A thousand starry Beauties there,
A thousand radiant Marks appear
Of boundless Pow'r, and Skill divine.
2 From Might to Day, from Day to Night,
The dawning and the dying Light
Lectures of heav'nly Wisdom read;
With silent Eloquence they raise
Our Thoughts to our Creator's Praise,
And neither Sound nor Language need.
3 Yet their divine Instructions run
Far as the Journeys of the Sun,
And every Nation knows their Voice:
The Sun, like some young Bridegroom drest,
Breaks from the Chambers of the East,
Rolls round, and makes the Earth rejoice.
4 Where'er he spreads his Beams abroad,
He smiles, and speaks his Maker GOD:
All Nature joins to shew thy Praise:
Thus GOD in every Creature shines;
Fair is the Book of Nature's Lines,
But fairer is the Book of Grace.
Pause
5 I love the Volumes of thy Word;
What Light and Joy those Leaves afford
To Souls benighted and distrest!
Thy Precepts guide my doubtful Way,
Thy Fear forbears my Feet to stray,
Thy Promise leads my Heart to Rest.
6 From the Discov'ries of thy Law
The perfect Rules of Life I draw;
These are my Study and Delight;
Not Honey so invites the Taste,
Nor Gold that hath the Furnace past
Appears so pleasing to the Sight.
7 Thy Threat'nings wake my slumb'ring Eyes,
And warn me where my Danger lies;
But 'tis thy blessed Gospel, Lord,
That makes my guilty Conscience clean,
Converts my Soul, subdues my Sin,
And gives a free, but large Reward.
8 Who knows the Errors of his Thoughts?
My GOD, forgive my secret Faults,
And from presumptuous Sins restrain;
Accept my poor Attempts of Praise,
That I have read thy Book of Grace,
And Book of Nature not in vain. Scripture: Psalm 19
Great God, the Heav'n's well order'd Frame
The Book of Nature and of Scripture

Declares its Maker GOD,
And all his starry Works on high
Proclaim his Pow'r abroad.
2 The Darkness and the Light
Still keep their Course the same;
While Night to Day, and Day to Night,
Divinely teach his Name.
3 In ev'ry diff'rent Land
Their gen'ral Voice is known;
They shew the Wonders of his Hand,
And Orders of his Throne.
4 Ye British Lands, rejoice,
Here he reveals his Word,
We are not left to Nature's Voice,
To bid us know the Lord.
5 His Statutes and Commands
Are set before our Eyes,
He puts his Gospel in our Hands,
Where our Salvation lies.
6 His Laws are just and pure,
His Truth without Deceit,
His Promises for ever sure,
And his Rewards are great.
7 [Not Honey to the Taste
Affords so much Delight,
Nor Gold that has the Furnace past,
So much allures the Sight.
8 While of thy Works I sing,
Thy Glory to proclaim,
Accept the Praise, my GOD, my King
In my Redeemer's Name.]
