My Soul, inspir'd with sacred Love

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CIII (1767) Topics: Prayers Of a Sinner to obtain Forgiveness of Sins; Thanksgivings Forgivness of Sins Lyrics: 1 My Soul, inspir'd with sacred Love, GOD's holy Name for ever bless; Of all his Favours mindful prove, And still thy grateful Thanks express: 'Tis he, that all thy Sins forgives; And after Sickness makes thee sound; From Danger he thy Life retrieves, By him with Grace and Mercy crown'd. 2 He with good Things thy Mouth supplies, Thy Vigour, Eagle-like, renews; He, when the guiltless Suff'rer cries, His Foe with just Revenge pursues; GOD made of old his righteous Ways, To Moses and our Fathers, known; His Works, to his eternal Praise, Were to the Sons of Jacob shown. 3 The LORD abounds with tender Love, And unexampled Acts of Grace; His waken'd Wrath doth slowly move, His willing Mercy flows apace. GOD will not always harshly chide, But with his Anger quickly part; And loves his Punishment to guide, More by his Love than our Desert. 4 As high as Heav'n its Arch extends Above this little Spot of Clay; So much his boundless Love transcends, The small Respects that we can pay: As far as 'tis from East to West, So far has he our Sins remov'd; Who with a Father's tender Breast, Has such as fear him always lov'd. 5 For GOD, who all our Frame surveys, Considers that we are but Clay; How fresh foe'er we seem, our Days Like Grass or Flow'rs must fade away: Whilst they are nipt with sudden Blasts, Nor can we find their former Place; GOD's faithful Mercy ever lasts, To those that fear him, and their Race. 6 This shall attend on such as still, Proceed in his appointed Way; And who not only know his Will, But to it, just Obedience pay: The LORD, the universal King, In Heav'n has fix'd his lofty Throne; To him, ye Angels, Praises sing, In whose great Strength his Pow'r is shown. 7 Ye that his just Commands obey, And hear and do his sacred Will; Ye Hosts of his, this Tribute pay, Who still what he ordains fulfill: Let ev'ry Creature jointly bless, The mighty LORD: and thou, my Heart, With grateful Joy thy Thanks express, And in this Concert bear thy Part.

With Hyssop purge me, LORD, And so I clean shall be; I shall with Snow in Whiteness vie, When wahs'd and purify'd by thee. 4 Make me, O LORD, to hear with Joy, Thy kind forgiving Voice; That so the Bones which thou hast broke, May with fresh Strength rejoice. Blot out my crying Sins, Nor me in Anger view; Create in me a Heart that's clean, A just and upright Mind renew. Part II 5 Withdraw not thou thy Help, O LORD! Nor cast me from thy Sight; Nor let thy Holy Spirit take Its everlasting Flight. The Joy thy Favour gives, Let me again obtain; And thy free Spirit's firm Support, My feeble fainting Soul sustain. 6 So I thy just and righteous Ways To Sinners will impart; Whilst my Advice shall wicked Men, To thy just Laws convert. My Guilt of Blood remove, My Saviour and my GOD; And my glad Tongue shall loudly tell, Thy Truth and righteous Acts abroad. 7 Do thou, O LORD, unlock my Lips, With Sorrow clos'd, and Shame; So shall my Mouth thy wond'rous Praise, To all the World proclaim. Could Sacrifice atone, Whole Flocks and Herds should die; But on such Off'rings, LORD, thou do'st Disdain to cast a gracious Eye. 8 A humble Spirit is alone, By GOD most highly priz'd; By him a contrite broken Heart, Shall never be despis'd. Let Sion ever be Of thy good Will assur'd; Let thy own City flourish long, By strong and lofty Walls secur'd. 9 'Tis there the Righteous shall attend, And pleasing Tribute pay; And Sacrifice of choicest Kind, Upon thy Altar lay.

Heavy, O LORD! thy Hand on me remain'd, And I was quite of vital Moisture drained; Like parched Lands, with Summer's Drought opprest, And equally by Day and Night distress'd. 3 But I no sooner had my Guilt disclosed, Than thy Forgiveness kindly interposed; I shew'd the Wound that tortur'd me within, And Mercy's healing Balm was poured in. Thus with Success Repentance shall be crowned, Whilst in the Flood the thoughtless Wretch is drowned: To those who seek, and would thy Pardon find, Thou art, O LORD! in mercy still inclin'd. Part II 4 Thy Mercies never fail, when I'm distressed, By thee, my haughty Foes are all suppressed: Thou art my Refuge, safe I will rejoice, And thee, my Saviour, praise with Heart and Voice. If then my safe Instructions you confide in, The sacred paths of Truth you will abide in; Your Progress I securely will direct, And with my watchful Eye your Ways protect. 5 Be ye like Men who Reason have attained, And not like those whose Fury must be reined; Behave not like th' ungovern'd Horse or Mule, But yield yourselves to Wisdom's sacred Rule, Sorrows on Sorrows ever multiplied, Are heap'd on those who have the LORD defied; While plenteous Mercy shall the Just surround, Who have in him their only Refuge found. 6 Then let the Saints be glad in GOD their Saviour; Rejoice, ye Righteous, in th' Almighty's Favour: Ye upright ones, your chearful Voices raise, In grateful Raptures sing JEHOVAH's Praise.

Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XXXIX (1767) Topics: Prayers Of a Sinner to obtain Forgiveness of Sins Lyrics: 1 Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways, I strove to keep my Tongue in Awe; And curb'd with Care, my hasty Words, When I the prosp'rous wicked saw; From good Discourse I did refrain, But that increas'd my inward Pain. 2 My Heart did glow, which working Thoughts, Did in my Bosom restless make; And warm Reflection fann'd the Fire, 'Till with my Tongue at last I spake: And thus with eager Zeal express'd, The Thought that labor'd in my Breast. 3 LORD, let me know my Term of Days, And show how soon my Life will end; The num'rous Train of Ills disclose, Which still on this frail State attend: A Span will measure all my Years, My Life but Vanity appears. 4 Man, like a Shadow, vainly walks, With fruitless Cares opprest; He heaps up Wealth, but cannot tell, By whom 'twill be possess'd' Why should I then on Toys attend, My Hopes on thee shall still depend. Part II 5 Forgive my Sins, nor let me scorn'd, By proud disdainful Sinners, be; I silent was, and murmur'd not, Because I saw 'twas done by thee. The Burden of thy Wrath remove, Lest my frail Flesh too weak should prove. 6 For when thou chast'nest Man for Sin, Thou mak'st his Beauty soon to fade; It wastes away ev'n like a Cloth, That is by fretting Moths decay'd: So vain in ev'ry earthly Joy, And Life itself is but a Toy. 7 LORD, hear my Cry, accept my Tears, And listen to my humble Pray'r, Who sojourn like a Stranger here, As all my Fore-fathers likewise were. Oh spare me, and my Strength restore, Before I shall be seen no more! Scripture: Psalm 39 Languages: English Tune Title: [Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways]

To me impart Thy merit; My pardon seal, my sins forgive, And cleanse me by Thy Spirit. Beneath Thy cross I view the day When heaven and earth shall pass away, And thus prepare to meet Thee.
