Psalm 146

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 527 hymnals Topics: Future Punishment; Future Punishment First Line: I'll praise my Maker with my breath Lyrics: 1 I'll praise my Maker with my breath, And, when my voice is lost in death, Praise shall employ my nobler powers: My days of praise shall ne'er be past, While life, and thought, and being last, Or immortality endures. 2 Happy the man, whose hopes rely On Israel's God; he made the sky, And earth, and seas, with all their train: His truth for ever stands secure; He saves the oppressed, he feeds the poor; And none shall find his promise vain. 3 He loves his saints he knows them well, But turns the wicked down to hell; Thy God, O Zion! ever reigns; Let every tongue, let every age, In this exalted work engage: Praise him in everlasting strains. 4 I'll praise him while he lends me breath, And, when my voice is lost in death, Praise shall employ my nobler powers: My days of praise shall ne'er be past, While life, and thought, and being last, Or immortality endures.

Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 203 hymnals Topics: Future Punishment; Future Punishment First Line: Why will ye waste on trifling cares Lyrics: 1 Why will ye waste on trifling cares That life which God's compassion spares?

And all these pleas unite in vain? 3 Not so your eyes will always view Those objects which you now pursue; Not so will heaven and hell appear, When death's decisive hour is near. 4 Almighty God! thy grace impart; Fix deep conviction on each heart: Nor let us waste on trifling cares That life which thy compassion spares.

Appears in 768 hymnals Topics: Future Punishment Lyrics: 1 Lo!

Come to judgment! come away! 4 Now redemption, long expected, See in solemn pomp appear! All His saints by man rejected, Now shall meet Him in the air! Hallelujah! See the day of God appear! 5 Yea! amen! let all adore Thee, High on Thine eternal throne; Saviour! take the power and glory; Claim the kingdoms for Thine own! Oh, come quickly! Hallelujah! come, Lord, come!

Appears in 439 hymnals Topics: Future Punishment Lyrics: 1 When Thou, my righteous Judge, shalt come To call Thy ransom'd people home, Shall I among them stand?

What if my name should be left out, When Thou for them shalt call? 3 Prevent it, Lord, by Thy rich grace; Be Thou my soul's sure hiding-place, In this, th'accepted day; Thy pard'ning voice, oh, let me hear, To still my unbelieving fear; Nor let me fall, I pray. 4 Let me among Thy saints be found, Whene'er the archangel's trump shall sound, To see Thy smiling face: Then loudest of the crowd I'll sing, While heaven's resounding mansions ring With shouts of sov'reign grace.
