Hope encouraged by a view of the divine perfections
Hymnal: The Hartford Selection of Hymns from the Most Approved Authors #CXXXII (1799) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Hope From the divine perfections; Hope From the divine perfections First Line: Why sinks my weak desponding mind? Lyrics: 1 Why sinks my weak desponding mind?
Why heaves my heart the anxious sigh?
Can sov'reign goodness be unkind?
Am I not safe when God is nigh?
2 He holds all nature in his hand:
That gracious hand on which I live,
Does life, and time, and death command,
And has immortal joys to give.
3 'Tis he supports this fainting frame,
On him alone my hopes recline;
the wond'rous glories of his name,
How side they spread, how bright they shine1
4 Infinite wisdom! boundless pow'r!
Unchanging faithfulness and love!
Here let me trust, while I adore,
And from my refuge ne'er remove.
5 My God, if thou art mine indeed,
Then I have all my heart can crave;
A present help in times of need,
Still kind to hear and strong to save.
6 Forgive my doubts, o gracious Lord,
And ease the sorrows of my breast;
Speak to my heart the healing word,
That thou art mine--and I am blest.
Scripture: 1 Samuel 30:6 Languages: English

Disclos'd his kind design,
To rescue our apostate race
From misery, shame and sin;
2 Quick, through the realms of light and bliss,
The joyful tidings ran,
Each heart exulted at the news,
That God would dwell with man.
3 Yet 'midst their joys they paus'd a while,
And ask'd with strange surprise,
"But how can injur'd justice smile,
"Or look with pitying eyes?
4 ["Will the almighty deign again,
"To visit yonder world;
"And hither bring rebellious men,
"Whence rebels once were hurl'd?
5 "Their tears, and groans, and deep distress,
"Aloud for mercy call;
"But ah! must truth and righteousness
To mercy victims fall?"
6 So spake the friends of God and man,
Delighted, yet surpris'd;
Eager to know the wond'rous plan,
That wisdom had devis'd.]
7 The son of God attentive heard,
And quickly thus reply'd,
"In me let mercy be rever'd,
"And justice satisfy'd.
8 "Behold! my vital blood I pour,
"A sacrifice to God;
"Let angry justice now no more
"Demand the sinner's blood."
9 He spake, and heaven's high arches rung,
With shouts and loud applause;
"He dy'd," the friendly angels sung,
Nor cease their rapturous joys. Scripture: Psalm 65:10 Languages: English

Great God, to thee, the mighty King
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #VI (1789) Topics: The divine Perfections The Justice of God Lyrics: 1 Great God, to thee, the mighty King,
Whose sovereign rule the world obeys,
With reverent hearts thy people bring
The tribute of their humble praise.
2 The earth's great sceptre fills thy hand;
And, high enthron'd in majesty,
Thou givest thence to every land
The laws of truth and equity.
3 Unerring justice, Lord, is thine;
And every nation shall confess,
That thy decrees are all divine,
And all thy ways are righteousness.
4 In judgment wise, thou wilt bestow
To eery soul its due reward;
Unceasing joy the good shall know,
And live forever with their Lord.
5 But they who tread the sinner's path,
And dare thy righteous laws disown,
Shall meet with due returns from thee,
And reap the fruit which they have sown. Languages: English

The spacious firmament on high
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #II (1789) Topics: The divine Perfections The Heavens declare the Glory of God Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high,
With all the blue ethereal sky,
And spangled heav’ns (a shining frame!)
Their Great Original proclaim.
2 Th’ unwearied sun, from day to day,
Does his Creator’s pow'r display,
And publishes, to ev'ry Land
The work of an Almighty Hand.
3 Soon as the ev'ning shades prevail
The moon takes up the wond'rous tale,
And nightly to the list'ning earth,
Repeats the story of her birth:
4 Whilst all the stars that round her burn,
And all the planets in their turn,
Confirm the tidings as they roll,
And spread the truth from pole to pole.
5 What though, in solemn silence, all
Move round the dark terrestrial ball?
What though nor real voice nor sound,
Amidst their radiant orbs be found?
6 In Reasons ear they all rejoice,
And utter forth a glorious voice;
Forever singing, as they shine,
"The Hand that made us is divine." Languages: English

The springs whence wrong opinions flow;
To judge, from principles within,
When frailty errs, and when we sin.
2 Who, among men, high Lord of all,
Thy servants to his bar may call?
Decide of heresy, and shake
A brother o'er the flaming lake?
3 Who with another's eye can read?
Or worship by another's creed?
Revering thy command alone,
We humbly seek and use our own.
4 If wrong, forgive; accept, if right;
While faithful we obey our light;
And, cens'uring none, are zealous still,
To follow as to learn thy will.
5 When shall our happy eyes behold
Thy people fashion'd in thy mould?
And charity our lineage prove
Deriv'd from thee, O God of love? Languages: English
All knowing God, 'tis thine to know
