Blest is the Man, to whom the GOD of Heaven
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XXXII (1767) Topics: Thanksgivings Forgivness of Sins Lyrics: 1 Blest is the Man, to whom the GOD of Heaven,
All his Transgressions freely hath forgiven:
Whose Guilt is cover'd, and shall not appear;
At GOD's Tribunal to condemn him there.
Thrice bless'd is he, who as he has transgressed,
With contrite Heart hath all his Crimes confessed;
To whom the LORD will not impute his Sin,
And whose pure Soul from all Deceit is clean.
2 Whilst I concael'd my Sin, my heart was grieved,
My Bones consuming could not be relieved;
All Day, did I with Anguish roar;
But no Complaints assuag'd my fretting Sore.
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]
Resolv'd to watch o'er all my Ways
Christ, the Life of all the living
Hymnal: Christian Hymns #257 (1898) Meter: 8.7.8.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Forgiveness of Sin; Forgiveness of Sin Wrought by Christ Lyrics: 1 Christ, the Life of all the living,
Christ, the Death of death our foe,
Who, Thyself for us once giving
To the darkest depths of woe,
Patiently didst yield Thy breath
But to save my soul from death:
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Blessed Jesus, unto Thee.
2 Thou, ah Thou, hast taken on Thee
Bitter strokes, a cruel rod;
Pain and scorn were heaped upon Thee,
0 Thou sinless Son of God,
Only thus for me to win
Rescue from the bonds of sin:
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Dearest Jesus, unto Thee.
3 Thou didst bear the smiting only
That it might not fall on me;
Stoodest falsely charged and lonely
That I might be safe and free;
Comfortless, that I might know
Comfort from Thy boundless woe:
Thousand, thousand thanks shall be,
Dearest Jesus, unto Thee.
4 Then, for all that wrought our pardon,
For Thy sorrows deep and sore,
For Thine anguish in the garden,
I will thank Thee evermore,--
Thank Thee with my latest breath
For Thy sad and cruel death;
For that last and bitter cry,
Praise Thee evermore on high.

And all below the sky,
Before Thy feet I prostrate fall,
And for Thy mercy cry.
2 Forgive my follies past,
The crimes which I have done;
Oh, bid a contrite sinner live,
Through Thine incarnate Son.
3 Guilt, like a heavy load,
Upon my conscience lies;
To Thee I make my sorrows known,
And lift my weeping eyes.
4 The burden which I feel,
Thou only canst remove;
Display, O Lord, Thy pard'ning grace,
And Thine unbounded love.
5 One gracious look of Thine
Will ease my troubled breast;
Oh, let me know my sins forgiven,
And I shall then be blest. Languages: English

God of pity, God of grace
Author: Eliza F. Morris Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #466 (1961) Meter: 7.7.7.5 Topics: Christian Life The Forgivness of Sins Lyrics: 1 God of pity, God of grace,
When we humbly seek thy face,
Bend from heav'n, thy dwelling-place;
Hear, forgive, and save.

Spread our wants before thy feet,
Pleading at thy mercy-seat,
Look from heav'n and save.

And we long to do thy will,
Turning to thy holy hill,
Lord, accept and save.
4 Should we wander from thy fold,
And our love to thee grow cold,
With a pitying eye behold;
Lord, forgive and save.
5 Should the hand of sorrow press,
Earthly care and want distress,
May our souls thy peace possess;
Jesus, hear and save.
6 And, whate'er our cry may be,
When we lift our hearts to thee,
From our burden set us free;
Hear, forgive, and save.
