Intemperance punished and pardoned; or, A Psalm for the Glutton and the Drunkard
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #191a (1786) Topics: Drunkard and Glutton; Glutton and Drunkard and Drunkard; Psalm for gluttons and drunkards; Drunkard and Glutton; Glutton and Drunkard and Drunkard; Psalm for gluttons and drunkards First Line: Vain man on foolish pleasures bent 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 powers 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 frighten'd 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 sovereign word, and heals.
6 Oh may the sons of men record
The wondrous goodness of the Lord!
And let their thankful offering prove
How they adore their Maker's love. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English

Israel led to Canaan, and Christians to Heaven

Kind are his thoughts, his name is love,
His mercy ages past have known,
And ages long to come shall own.
2 Let the redeemed of the Lord
The wonders of his grace record;
Israel, the nation whom he chose,
And rescu'd from their mighty foes.
3 [When God's almighty arm had broke
Their fetters and th' Egyptian yoke,
They trac'd the desert wandering round;
A wild and solitary ground!
4 There they could find no leading road,
Nor city for a fix'd abode;
Nor food, nor fountain, to asswage
Their burning thirst or hunger's rage.]
5 In their distress to God they cry'd
God was their Saviour and their guide;
He led their wandering march around.
And brought their tribes to Canaan's ground.
6 Thus when our first release we gain
From sin's old yoke, and satan's chain,
We have this desert world to pass,
A dangerous and a tiresome place.
7 He feeds and clothes us all the way,
He guides our footsteps lest we stray,
He guards us with a powerful hand,
And brings us to the heavenly land.
8 Oh let the saints with joy record
The truth and goodness of the Lord!
How great his works! how kind his ways!
Let every tongue pronounce his praise. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English

And feeds the poor with every good.
2 But if their hearts rebel and rise
Against the God that rules the skies;
If they reject his heavenly word,
And slight the counsels of the Lord:
3 He'll bring their spirits to the ground,
And no deliverance shall be found;
Laden with grief they waste their breath
In darkness and the shades of death.
4 Then to the Lord they raise their cries,
He makes the dawning light arise,
And scatters all that dismal shade
That hung so heavy round their head.
5 He cuts the bars of brass in two,
And lets the smiling prisoners through
Takes off the load of guilt and grief,
And gives the labouring soul relief.

Deliverance from Storms and Shipwreck; or, the Seamen's Song
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #191b (1786) Topics: Drunkard and Glutton; Glutton and Drunkard and Drunkard; Psalm for gluttons and drunkards; Drunkard and Glutton; Glutton and Drunkard and Drunkard; Psalm for gluttons and drunkards First Line: Would you behold the works of God Lyrics: 1 Would you behold the works of God,
His wonders in the world abroad,
With the bold mariner, survey
The unknown regions of the sea.
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 heavens 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 assuage,
And stormy tempests cease to rage;
The gladsome train their fears give o'er,
And hail with joy their native shore.
6 Oh may the sons of men record
The wondrous goodness of the Lord!
Let them their private offerings bring,
And in the church his glory sing. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English
