Psalm 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.1 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: End of the righteous and wicked; Love of God to the righteous, and hatred to the wicked First Line: Blest is the man who shuns the place Lyrics: Blest is the man who shuns the place Where sinners love to meet; Who fears to tread their wicked ways, And hates the scoffer's seat: But in the statutes of the Lord Has placed his chief delight; By day he reads or hears the word, And meditates by night. [He, like a plant of gen'rous kind, By living waters set, Safe from the storms and blasting wind, Enjoys a peaceful state.] Green as the leaf, and ever fair, Shall his profession shine While fruits of holiness appear Like clusters on the vine. Not so the impious and unjust; What vain designs they form! Their hopes are blown away like dust, Or chaff before the storm. Sinners in judgment shall not stand Amongst the sons of grace, When Christ, the Judge, at his right hand Appoints his saints a place. His eye beholds the path they tread, His heart approves it well But crooked ways of sinners lead Down to the gates of hell. Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English

At length, by certain proofs, 'tis plain

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXXIII (1767) Topics: Prayers Of the Church Particularly of Believers when offended at the Prosperity of the Wicked; Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 At length, by certain Proofs, 'tis plain That GOD will to his Saints be kind; That all whose Hearts are pure and clean, Shall his protecting Favour find. 'Till this sustaining Truth I knew, My stagg'ring Feet had almost fail'd; I griev'd, the Sinner's Wealth to view, And envy'd when the Fools prevail'd. 2 They to the Grave in Peace descend, And, whilst they live, are hale and strong; No Plague of Troubles them offend, Which oft to other Men belong. With Pride, as with a Chain, they're held, And Rapine seems their Robe of State; Their Eyes stand out, with Fatness swell'd; They grow, beyond their Wishes, great. 3 With Hearts corrupt and lofty Talk, Oppressive Methods they defend; Their Tongue thro' all the Earth does walk, Their Blasphemies to Heav'n ascend, And yet admiring Crouds are found, Who servile Visits duly make; Because with Plenty they abound, Of which their flatt'ring Slaves partake. 4 Their fond Opinion these pursue, 'Till they, with them, profanely cry "How should the LORD our Actions view? "Can He perceive, who dwells so high"? Behold the Wicked, these are they, Who openly their sins profess; And yet their Wealth's encreas'd each Day, And all their Actions meet Success. 5 "Then have I cleans'd my Heart, said I, "And wash'd my Hands from Guilt in vain, "If all the Day oppress'd I lie, "And ev'ry Morning suffer Pain." Thus did I once to speak intend, But if such Things I rashly say, Thy Children, LORD, I must offend, And basely should their Cause betray. Part II 6 To fathom this my Thoughts I bent; But found the Case too hard for me, 'Till to the House of GOD I went, Then I their End did plainly see. How high soe'er advanc'd, they all On slipp'ry Places loosely stand; Thence into Ruin headlong fall, Cast down by thy avenging Hand. 7 How dreadful and how quick their Fate! Despis'd by thee, when they're destroy'd; As waking Men, with Scorn do treat The Fancies that their Dreams employ'd. Thus was my Heart with Grief oppress'd, My Reins were rack'd with restless Pains; So stupid was I, like a Beast, Who no reflecting Thought retains. 8 Yet still thy Presence me supply'd, And thy Right-Hand Assistance gave; Thou first shalt with thy Counsel guide And then to Glory me receive. Whom then in Heaven, but thee alone, Have I, whose Favour I require? Throughout the spacious Earth, there's none That I besides thee can desire. 9 My trembling Flesh, and aching Heart, May often fail to succour me; But GOD shall inward Strength impart, And my eternal Portion be. For they that far from thee remove, Shall into sudden Ruin fall, If after other GODS they rove, Thy Vengeance shall destroy them all. 10 But as for me, 'tis good and just, That I should still to GOD repair; In him I always put my Trust, And will His wond'rous Works declare. Scripture: Psalm 73 Languages: English Tune Title: [At length, by certain proffs, 'tis plain]

The Kingship of Jesus Christ

Hymnal: The Psalter #3 (1912) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Rulers Wicked; The Wicked Fate of; The Wicked Warned First Line: Wherefore do the nations rage Lyrics: 1 Wherefore do the nations rage And the people vainly dream That in triumph they can wage War against the King supreme? Christ His Son a scoff they make, And the rulers, plotting, say: Their dominion let us break Let us cast their yoke away, Their dominion let us break, Let us cast their yoke away. 2 But the Lord will scorn them all, Calm, He sits enthroned on high; Soon His wrath will on them fall, Sore displeased He will reply: Yet according to My will I have set My King to reign, And on Zion's holy hill My Anointed I maintain; And on Zion's holy hill My Anointed I maintain. 3 This His word shall be made known, This Jehovah's firm decree: Thou art My beloved Son, Yea I have begotten Thee. All the earth at Thy request I will give Thee for Thy own; Then Thy might shall be confessed And Thy foes be overthrown; Then Thy might shall be confessed And Thy foes be overthrown. 4 Therefore, kings, be wise, give ear, Hearken, judges of the earth; Learn to serve the Lord with fear. Mingle trembling with your mirth. Kiss the Son, lest o'er our way His consuming wrath should break; But supremely blest are they Who in Christ their refuge take; But supremely blest are they Who in Christ their refuge take.
