Jeremiah 9:22-23

• [Jer 9:23] Let Not The Wise His Wisdom Boast

  Let not the wise his wisdom boast, The mighty glory in his might, The rich in flattering riches trust, Which take their everlasting flight. The rush of numerous years bears down The most gigantic strength of man; And where is all his wisdom gone, When dust he turns to dust again? One only gift can justify The boasting soul that knows his God; When Jesus doth His blood apply, I glory in His sprinkled blood. The Lord, my Righteousness, I praise, I triumph in the love divine, The wisdom, wealth, and strength of grace, In Christ through endless ages mine.

Jeremiah 18:6

• [Jer 18:6] Behold The Servant Of The Lord

  Behold the servant of the Lord! I wait Thy guiding eye to feel, To hear and keep Thy every word, To prove and do Thy perfect will, Joyful from my own works to cease, Glad to fulfill all righteousness. Me if Thy grace vouchsafe to use, Meanest of all Thy creatures, me, The deed, the time, the manner choose, Let all my fruit be found of Thee; Let all my works in Thee be wrought, By Thee to full perfection brought. My every weak, though good design, O’errule, or change, as seems Thee meet; Jesus, let all my work be Thine! Thy work, O Lord, is all complete, And pleasing in Thy Father’s sight; Thou only hast done all things right. Here then to Thee Thy own I leave; Mold as Thou wilt Thy passive clay; But let me all Thy stamp receive, But let me all Thy words obey, Serve with a single heart and eye, And to Thy glory live and die.

Jeremiah 23:5

• [Jer 23:5] Birthday Of A King, The

  In the little village of Bethlehem, There lay a Child one day; And the sky was bright with a holy light O’er the place where Jesus lay. Refrain Alleluia! O how the angels sang. Alleluia! How it rang! And the sky was bright with a holy light ’Twas the birthday of a King. ’Twas a humble birthplace, but O how much God gave to us that day, From the manger bed what a path has led, What a perfect, holy way.

• [Jer 23:5] My God! How Perfect Are Thy Ways!

  My God! how perfect are Thy ways! But mine polluted are; Sin twines itself about my praise, And slides into my prayer. When I would speak what Thou hast done To save me from my sin; I cannot make Thy mercies known But self-applause creeps in. Divine desire, that holy flame Thy grace creates in me; Alas! impatience is its name, When it returns to Thee. This heart, a fountain of vile thoughts, How does it overflow? While self upon the surface floats Still bubbling from below. Let others in the gaudy dress Of fancied merit shine; The Lord shall be my righteousness The Lord for ever mine.

• [Jer 30:21] Close To Thee

  Thou my everlasting Portion, more than friend or life to me, All along my pilgrim journey, Savior, let me walk with Thee. Close to Thee, close to Thee, close to Thee, close to Thee, All along my pilgrim journey, Savior, let me walk with Thee. Not for ease or worldly pleasure, nor for fame my prayer shall be; Gladly will I toil and suffer, only let me walk with Thee. Close to Thee, close to Thee, close to Thee, close to Thee, Gladly will I toil and suffer, only let me walk with Thee. Lead me through the vale of shadows, bear me over life’s fitful sea; Then the gate of life eternal may I enter, Lord, with Thee. Close to Thee, close to Thee, close to Thee, close to Thee, Then the gate of life eternal may I enter, Lord, with Thee.

• [Jer 30:21] O God, Of Good The Unfathomed Sea

  O God, of good the unfathomed Sea! Who would not give his heart to Thee? Who would not love Thee with his might? O Jesus, Lover of mankind, Who would not his whole soul and mind, With all his strength, to Thee unite? Thou shin’st with everlasting rays; Before the insufferable blaze Angels with both wings veil their eyes; Yet free as air Thy bounty streams On all thy works; Thy mercy’s beams Diffusive as Thy sun’s arise. Astonished at thy frowning brow, Earth, hell, and Heaven’s strong pillars bow; Terrible majesty is Thine! Who then can that vast love express Which bows Thee down to me, who less Than nothing am, till Thou art mine? High throned upon Heaven’s eternal hill, In number, weight, and measure still Thou sweetly orderest all that is: And yet Thou deign’st to come to me, And guide my steps, that I, with Thee Enthroned, may reign in endless bliss. Fountain of good, all blessing flows From Thee; no want Thy fullness knows; What but Thyself canst Thou desire? Yet, self-sufficient as Thou art, Thou dost desire my worthless heart; This, only this, dost Thou require. Primeval Beauty! in Thy sight The first-born, fairest sons of light See all their brightest glories fade: What then to me Thine eyes could turn, In sin conceived, of woman born, A worm, a leaf, a blast, a shade? Hell’s armies tremble at Thy nod, And trembling own the almighty God, Sovereign of earth, hell, air, and sky: But who is this that comes from far, Whose garments rolled in blood appear? ’Tis God made man, for man to die! O God, of good the unfathomed Sea! Who would not give his heart to Thee? Who would not love Thee with his might? O Jesus, Lover of mankind, Who would not his whole soul and mind, With all his strength, to Thee unite?

  O to abide in Jesus, O to be His alone; Close to the fount of blessing, Close to my Savior’s throne.

O for a heart to praise Him, O for a tongue to sing Glory to Him Who saves me, Jesus my Lord and King. O to be more like Jesus, Earnest whene’er I pray; Into His perfect likeness Growing from day to day, O for a faith to bear me, Ever with tireless wing, Home where the blest are waiting, Home where the angels sing.

• [Jer 30:21] Still With Thee, O My God

  Still with Thee, O my God, I would desire to be; By day, by night, at home, abroad, I would be still with Thee. With Thee when dawn comes in And calls me back to care, Each day returning to begin With Thee, my God, in prayer. With Thee amid the crowd That throngs the busy mart, To hear Thy voice, where time’s is loud, Speak softly to my heart. With Thee when day is done, And evening calms the mind; The setting as the rising sun With Thee my heart would find. With Thee when darkness brings The signal of repose, Calm in the shadow of Thy wings, Mine eyelids I would close. With Thee, in Thee, by faith Abiding, I would be; By day, by night, in life, in death, I would be still with Thee.

Jeremiah 31:10

• [Jer 31:10] Come, All Ye Sons Of God

  Come, all ye sons of God, who have received the priesthood, Go spread the Gospel wide, and gather in His people, The latter day work has begun, to gather scattered Israel in And bring them back to Zion to praise the Lamb. Come, all ye scattered sheep, and listen to your Shepherd, While you the blessing reap, which long have been predicted; By prophets long it’s been foretold He’ll gather you into His fold And bring you home to Zion to praise the Lamb. Repent and be baptized, and have your sins remitted, And get the Spirit’s zeal; O then you’ll be united; Go cast upon Him all your cares; He will regard your humble prayer And bring you home to Zion to praise the Lamb. And when your grief is o’er and ended your affliction, Your spirits then will soar to await the resurrection; And then His presence you’ll enjoy, in heavenly bliss your time employ, A thousand years in Zion to praise the Lamb.

Jeremiah 31:15

• [Jer 31:15] The Hymn For Conquering Martyrs Raise

  The hymn for conquering martyrs raise, The victor innocents we praise, Whom in their woe earth cast away, But Heav’n with joy received today; Whose angels see the Father’s face World without end, and hymn His grace; And while they chant unceasing lays, The hymn for conquering martyrs raise. A voice from Ramah was there sent, A voice of weeping and lament, When Rachel mourned the children’s care Whom for the tyrant’s sword she bare. Triumphal is their glory now, Whom earthly torments could not bow, What time, both far and near that went, A voice from Ramah there was sent. Fear not, O little flock and blest, The lion that your life opprest! To heavenly pastures ever new The heavenly Shepherd leadeth you; Who, dwelling now on Zion’s hill, The Lamb’s dear footsteps follow still; By tyrant there no more distrest, Fear not, O little flock and blest. And every tear is wiped away By your dear Father’s hands for ay; Death hath no power to hurt you more, Whose own is life’s eternal store. Who sow their seed, and sowing weep, In everlasting joy shall reap, What time they shine in heavenly day, And every tear is wiped away. O city blest o’er all the earth, Who gloriest in the Savior’s birth, Who are His earliest martyrs dear, By kindred and by triumph here; None from henceforth may call thee small, Of rival towns thou passest all: In whom our Monarch had His birth, O city blest o’er all the earth!
