Psalm 102 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.222 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: God eternal, and man mortal; Mortality and God's eternity First Line: Let Zion and her sons rejoice Lyrics: Let Zion and her sons rejoice, Behold the promised hour; Her God hath heard her mourning voice, And comes t' exalt his power. Her dust and ruins that remain Are precious in our eyes; Those ruins shall be built again, And all that dust shall rise. The Lord will raise Jerusalem And stand in glory there; Nations shall bow before his name, And kings attend with fear. He sits a sovereign on his throne, With pity in his eyes; He hears the dying pris'ners' groan, And sees their sighs arise. He frees the souls condemned to death, And when his saints complain, It shan't be said, "That praying breath Was ever spent in vain." This shall be known when we are dead, And left on long record; That ages yet unborn may read, And trust, and praise the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 102:13-21 Languages: English

Psalm 102 Part 3

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.223 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: God eternal, and man mortal; Mortality and God's eternity First Line: It is the Lord our Savior's hand Lyrics: It is the Lord our Savior's hand Weakens our strength amidst the race; Disease and death at his command Arrest us, and cut short our days. Spare us, O Lord, aloud we pray, Nor let our sun go down at noon; Thy years are one eternal day, And must thy children die so soon? Yet in the midst of death and grief This thought our sorrow should assuage: Our Father and our Savior live; Christ is the same through every age. 'Twas he this earth's foundation laid; Heav'n is the building of his hand; This earth grows old, these heav'ns shall fade And all be changed at his command. The starry curtains of the sky, Like garments, shall be laid aside; But still thy throne stands firm on high, Thy church for ever must abide. Before thy face thy church shall live, And on thy throne thy children reign; This dying world shall they survive, And the dead saints be raised again. Scripture: Psalm 102:23-28 Languages: English

Scripture: Psalm 36:7-9 Languages: English

God is Love

Author: James Relly Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCLXVIII (1792) Meter: Irregular Topics: The Eternal and Unchangeable Love of God, commemorated in Hymns of Thanksgiving First Line: O love! what a secret to mortals thou art? Lyrics: 1 O love! what a secret to mortals thou art? 'Tis God's deep eternity, nature and heart: The witnessing dove confirms this high plan, And likewise his word and his dealings with man; The sorrows of Jesus, his torment and pain, Has left no foundation for doubting again. 2 O love! how myster'ous and boundless art thou! Thy date and thy measure unlimited flow: This Jesus reveals with evidence strong; It gladdens my heart, and inspires my song With praise to my Saviour, my Lord, and my God, Whose love is my glory, as view'd in his blood. 3 O love! what a gath'ring of souls hast thou made! All into one fountain, one body, one head, Where they were preserved thy own, thro' the fall, The fulness of Jesus, who fills all in all: Close in her pavilion, the darling, the bride, Lay hid in her husband, till born from his side. 4 O love! what a bridegroom of honour and trust! The fulness of heaven hath marri'd my dust; He humbled himself to cleave to his wife, In all her distress and her sorrows of life; With her was he number'd amongst the unclean, Nor yet could he loathe her, nor jar come between. 5 O love! what a husband thy care did provide! Descending from glory in search of thy bride; Her substance conceived, thy body was she, Incarnate in her, and she then was in thee; In Mary, the virgin, the twain was made one, Whence God, our Creator, was born a poor man. Scripture: 1 John 4:9-10 Languages: English

But greater, Lord, thou art, Than all my doubts and fears. Did Jesus once upon me shine? Then Jesus is forever mine. 2 Unchangeable his will, Tho' dark may be my frame; His loving heart is still Eternally the same: My soul thro' many changes goes; His love no variation knows. 3 Thou, Lord, wilt carry on, And perfectly perform The work, thou hast begun In me a sinful worm: Midst all my fears, and sin, and woe, Thy spirit will not let me go. 4 The bowels of thy grace At first did freely move: I still shall see thy face, And feel that God is love. Myself into thine arms I cast; Lord, save, O save, my soul at last. Scripture: Psalm 42:11 Languages: English

All Attainments vain without Love

Author: S. Stennett Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCLXXII (1792) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Eternal and Unchangeable Love of God, commemorated in Hymns of Thanksgiving First Line: Should bounteous nature kindly pour Lyrics: 1 Should bounteous nature kindly pour Her richest gifts on me, Still, O my God, I should be poor, If void of love to thee. 2 Not shining wit, nor manly sense, could make me truly good: Nor zeal itself could recompense The want of love to God. 3 Did I possess the gift of tongues, But were deni'd thy grace, My loudest words, my loftiest songs, Would be but sounding brass. 4 Tho' thou should'st give me heav'nly skill, Each myst'ry to explain, If I'd no heart to do thy will, My knowledge would be vain. 5 Had I so strong a faith, my God, As mountains to remove, No faith could do me real good, That did not work by love. 6 What tho', to gratify my pride, And make my heav'n secure, All my possessions I divide, Among the hungry poor! 7 What tho' my body I consign, To the devouring flame, In hope the glorious deed will shine In roils of endless fame! 8 These splendid acts of vanity, Tho' all the world applaud, If destitute of charity, Can never please my God. 9 O grant me then this one request, And I'll be satisfied, That love divine may rule my breast, And all my actions guide. Scripture: Matthew 5:44-45 Languages: English
