Vain Man on foolish Pleasures bent
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P107c (1766) Topics: Church restored by prayer; Colonies Planted; Creation and Providence; Deliverance from shipwreck; Drunkard and Glutton; Intemperance pardoned; Isreal punished and pardoned; Isreal saved from Egypt, and brought to Canaan; Isreal Travels in the Wilderness; Luxury pardoned; Mariners Psalm; Mercies recorded; Nation blest and punished; New-England Psalm; Providence in Air, Earth and Sea; Providence recorded; Saints conducted to heaven; Saints punished and pardoned; Seaman's Song; Weather Lyrics: 1 Vain Man, on foolish Pleasures bent,
Prepares for his own Punishment;
What Pains, what loathsome Maladies
From Luxury and Lust arise!
2 The Drunkard feels his Vitals waste;
Yet drowns his Health to please his Taste;
Till all his active Pow'rs are lost,
And fainting Life draws near the Dust.
3 The Glutton groans, and loaths to eat,
His Soul abhors delicious Meat;
Nature, with heavy Loads opprest,
Would yield to death to be releas'd.
4 Then how the frighted Sinners fly
To GOD for Help with earnest Cry!
He hears their Groans, prolongs their Breath,
And saves them from approaching Death.
5 No Med'cines could effect the Cure
So quick, so easy, or so sure;
The deadly Sentence GOD repeals,
He sends his sov'reign Word and heals.
6 O may the Sons of Men record
The wond'rous Goodness of the Lord!
And let their thankful Off'rings prove
How they adore their Maker's Love. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English
Vain Man on foolish Pleasures bent
Would you behold the Works of God
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P107d (1766) Topics: Church restored by prayer; Colonies Planted; Creation and Providence; Deliverance from shipwreck; Drunkard and Glutton; Intemperance pardoned; Isreal punished and pardoned; Isreal saved from Egypt, and brought to Canaan; Isreal Travels in the Wilderness; Luxury pardoned; Mariners Psalm; Mercies recorded; Nation blest and punished; New-England Psalm; Providence in Air, Earth and Sea; Providence recorded; Saints conducted to heaven; Saints punished and pardoned; Seaman's Song; Weather Lyrics: 1 Would you behold the Works of God,
His Wonders in the World abroad,
Go with the Mariners, and trace
The unknown Regions of the Seas.
2 They leave their native Shores behind,
And seize the Favour of the Wind;
Till GOD commands, and Tempests rise
That heave the Ocean to the Skies.
3 Now to the Heav'ns they mount amain,
Now sink to dreadful Deeps again;
What strange Affrights young Sailors feel,
And like a staggering Drunkard reel!
4 When Land is far, and Death is nigh,
Lost to all Hope, to GOD they cry;
His Mercy hears the loud Address,
And sends Salvation in Distress.
5 He bids the Winds their Wrath asswage,
The furious Waves forget their Rage;
'Tis calm; and Sailors smile to see
The Haven where they wish'd to be.
6 O may the Sons of Men record
The wond'rous Goodness of the Lord!
Let them their private Off'rings bring,
And in the Church his Glory sing. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English
Would you behold the Works of God
Thy Works of Glory, mighty Lord
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P107e (1766) Topics: Church restored by prayer; Colonies Planted; Creation and Providence; Deliverance from shipwreck; Drunkard and Glutton; Intemperance pardoned; Isreal punished and pardoned; Isreal saved from Egypt, and brought to Canaan; Isreal Travels in the Wilderness; Luxury pardoned; Mariners Psalm; Mercies recorded; Nation blest and punished; New-England Psalm; Providence in Air, Earth and Sea; Providence recorded; Saints conducted to heaven; Saints punished and pardoned; Seaman's Song; Weather Lyrics: 1 Thy Works of Glory, mighty Lord,
Thy Wonders in the Deeps,
The Sons of Courage shall record,
Who trade in floating Ships.
2 At thy Command the Winds arise,
And swell the tow'ring Waves;
The Men astonish'd mount the Skies,
And sink in gaping Graves.
3 [Again they climb the watry Hills,
And plunge in Deeps again;
Each like a tott'ring Drunkard reels,
And finds his Courage vain.
4 Frighted to hear the Tempest roar,
They pant with flutt'ring Breath,
And hopeless of the distant Shore,
Expect immediate Death.]
5 Then to the Lord they raise their Cries;
He hears the loud Request,
And orders Silence through the Skies,
And lays the Floods to rest.
6 Sailors rejoice to lose their Fears,
And see the Storm allay'd:
Now to their Eyes the Port appears;
There let their Vows be paid.
7 'Tis GOD, that brings them safe to Land;
Let stupid Mortals know
That Waves are under his Command,
And all the Winds that blow.
8 O that the Sons of Men would praise
The Goodness of the Lord!
And those that see thy wond'rous Ways,
Thy wond'rous Love record. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English
Thy Works of Glory, mighty Lord
When God provok'd with daring Crimes
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P107f (1766) Topics: Church restored by prayer; Colonies Planted; Creation and Providence; Deliverance from shipwreck; Drunkard and Glutton; Intemperance pardoned; Isreal punished and pardoned; Isreal saved from Egypt, and brought to Canaan; Isreal Travels in the Wilderness; Luxury pardoned; Mariners Psalm; Mercies recorded; Nation blest and punished; New-England Psalm; Providence in Air, Earth and Sea; Providence recorded; Saints conducted to heaven; Saints punished and pardoned; Seaman's Song; Weather Lyrics: 1 When God provok'd with daring Crimes,
Scourges the Madness of the Times,
He turns their Fields to barren Sand,
And dries the Rivers from the Land.
2 His Word can raise the Springs again,
And make the wither'd Mountains green,
Send show'ry Blessings from the Skies,
And Harvests in the Desarts rise.
3 [Where nothing dwelt but Beasts of Prey,
Or Men as fierce and wild as they,
He bids th' Opprest and Poor repair,
And builds them Towns and Cities there.
4 They sow the Fields, and Trees they plant,
Whose yearly Fruit supplies their Want;
Their Race grows up from fruitful Stocks,
Their Wealth increases with their Flocks.
5 Thus they are blest; but if they sin,
He lets the heathen Nations in;
A savage Crew invades their Lands,
Their Princes die by barb'rous Hands.
6 Their captive Sons expos'd to Scorn,
Wander unpity'd and forlorn;
The Country lies unfenc'd, untill'd,
And Desolation spreads the Field.
7 Yet if the humbled Nation mourns,
Again his dreadful Hand he turns;
Again he makes their Cities thrive,
And bids the dying Churches live.]
8 The Righteous, with a joyful Sense,
Admire the Works of Providence;
And Tongues of Atheists shall no more
Blaspheme the GOD that Saints adore.
9 How few with pious Care record
These wond'rous Dealings of the Lord;
But wise Observers still shall find
The Lord is holy, just, and kind. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English

Psalm 81: Sing with Joy to God
It came upon the midnight clear
Author: Dr. Edmund Sears, 1810-1876 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #118a (1917) Topics: Angels Song at Nativity; Christ Leading; Christmas Hymns; The Son Christmas; Nativity, the ; National Peace; Song Of the Angels; Peace On Earth; Peace National Lyrics: 1 It came upon the midnight clear,
That glorious song of old,
From angels bending near the earth
To touch their harps of gold:
"Peace on the earth, good-will to men,
From heaven's all-gracious King!"
The world in solemn stillness lay
To hear the angels sing.
2 Still through the cloven skies they come,
With peaceful wings unfurled,
And still their heavenly music floats
O'er all the weary world;
Above its sad and lowly plains
They bend on hovering wing,
And ever o'er its Babel sounds
The blessed angels sing.
3 Yet with the woes of sin and strife
The world has suffered long;
Beneath the angel-strain have rolled
Two thousand years of wrong;
And man, at war with man, hears not
The words of peace they bring:
O hush the noise, ye men of strife,
And hear the angels sing!
4 O ye, beneath life's crushing load,
Whose forms are bending low,
Who toil along the climbing way,
With painful steps and slow:
Look now, for glad and golden hours
Come swiftly on the wing;
O rest beside the weary road,
And hear the angels sing!
5 For lo! the days are hastening on
By prophet-bards foretold,
When with the ever-circling years
Comes round the age of gold;
When peace shall over all the earth
Its ancient splendours fling,
And the whole world give back the song
Which now the angels sing. Languages: English Tune Title: NOEL
