Exhortation to Prayer

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCXII (1791) Topics: Supplicatory Hymns First Line: What various Hindrances we meet Lyrics: 1 What various Hindrances we meet, In coming to the Mercy Seat! Yet who that knows the Worth of Pray'r But wishes to be often there. 2 Pray'r makes the dark'ned Cloud withdraw, Pray'r climbs the Ladder Jacob say; Gives exercise to Faith and Love, Brings ev'ry Blessing from above. 3 Restraining Pray'r we cease to fight; Pray'r makes the Christian Armour bright; And Satan trembles, when he sees The weakest Saint upon his Knees. 4 While Moses stood with Arms spread wide, Success was found on Israel's Sde; But when thro' Weariness they fail'd, That Moment Amelek prevail'd. 5 Have you no Words? Ah, think again, Words flows apace when you complain, And fill your Fellow Creatures Ear With the sad Tale of all your Care. 6 Were half the Breath thus vainly spent, To Heav'n in Supplication sent! Our cheerful Song would oft'ner be, "Hear what the LORD has done for me Languages: English

Hannah; Or the Throne of Grace

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCXXI (1791) Topics: Supplicatory Hymns First Line: When Hannah press'd with Grief Lyrics: 1 When Hannah press'd with Grief, Pour'd forth her Soul in Pray'r; She quickly found Relief, And left her Burthen there: Like her in ev'ry trying Case, Let us approach the Throne of Grace. 2 When she began to pray, Here Heart was pain'd and Sad; But ere she went away, Was comforted, and glad: In Trouble, what a resting Place Have they who know the Throne of Grace. 3 Tho' Men, and Devils rage, And threaten to devour; The Saints from Age to Age, Are safe from all their Pow'r; Fresh Strength they gain to run their Race, By waiting at the Throne of Grace. 4 Eli her Case mistook, How was her Spirit mov'd, By his unkind Rebuke? But God her Cause approv'd, We need not fear a Creature's Face, While welcome at the Throne of Wrace. 5 She was not fill'd with wine, (As Eli rashly thought) But with a Faith Divine, And found the Help she sought: Tho Men despise and call us Base, Still let us ply the Throne of Grace. 6 Men have not Pow'r or Skill, With troubled Souls to bear; Tho' they express Good-will, Poor Comforters they are: But swelling Sorrows sink apace, When we approach the Throne of Grace. 7 Numbers before have try'd, And found the Promise true; Nor One been yet deny'd, Then why should I, or you? Let us by Faith, their Footsteps trace, And hasten to the Throne of Grace. 8 As Fogs obscure the Light, And taint the morning Air, But soon are put to fFight, If the bright Sun appear; Thus Jesus will our Sorrows chase, By shining from the Throne of Grace.
