• [Psa 4:7] Holy Spirit, Source Of Gladness

  Holy Spirit, source of gladness, Come with all Thy radiance bright; O’er our weariness and sadness Breathe Thy life and shed Thy light! Send us Thine illumination, Banish all our fears at length; Rest upon this congregation, Spirit of unfailing strength. Let that love which knows no measure, Now in quickening showers descend, Bringing us the richest treasures Man can wish or God can send; Hear our earnest supplication, Every struggling heart release; Rest upon this congregation, Spirit of untroubled peace!

  Through the day Thy love has spared us; Now we lay us down to rest; Through the silent watches guard us, Let no foe our peace molest; Jesus, Thou our Guardian be; Sweet it is to trust in Thee. Pilgrims here on earth, and strangers, Dwelling in the midst of foes; Us and ours preserve from dangers; In Thine arms may we repose. And, when life’s sad day is past, Rest with Thee in Heav’n at last.

• [Psa 6:3] Return To Bless My Waiting Eyes

  Return to bless my waiting eyes, And cheer my mourning heart, O Lord! Without Thee, all beneath the skies No real pleasure can afford. When Thy loved presence meets my sight, It softens care, and sweetens toil; The sun shines forth with double light, The whole creation wears a smile. Upon thine arm of love I rest, Thy gracious voice forbids my fear; No storms disturb my peaceful breast, No foes assault when Thou art near. But ah! since Thou hast been away, Nothing but trouble have I known; And Satan marks me for his prey Because he sees me left alone. My sun is hid, my comforts lost, My graces droop, my sins revive; Distressed, dismayed, and tempest tossed, My soul is only just alive! Lord, hear my cry and come again! Put all mine enemies to shame, And let them see, ’tis not in vain That I have trusted in Thy Name.

• [Psa 8:5] Go Forth To Life, O Child Of Earth

  Go forth to life, O child of earth! Still mindful of thy heav’nly birth; Thou art not here for ease, or sin, But manhood’s noble crown to win. Tho’ passion’s fires are in thy soul, Thy spirit can their flames control; Tho’ tempters strong beset thy way, Thy spirit is more strong than they. Go on from innocence of youth To manly purity and truth; God’s angels still are near to save, And God Himself doth help the brave. Then forth to life, O child of earth! Be worthy of thy heav’nly birth! For noble service thou art here; Thy brothers help, thy God revere!

  God, keep me safe; in You I refuge take. You are my Lord; I have no good elsewhere. The hearts of all idolaters will ache; In all their sacrifices I’ll not share. Lord, my inheritance You have assigned; You guard what’s mine and make me feel secure. Your boundary lines are pleasant to my mind; Your future blessings will bring joy for sure. Lord, I will praise You for Your counsel wise; Even at night my heart tells me Your way. I’ll always set You first before my eyes; You’re right beside me; I won’t be afraid.

So freshly falls Thy heaven sent grace As morning’s gladdening breath; Gives light to all to seek Thy face, And guides in life and death. O holy light! O light of God! O light unseen below, Which fills the courts of Thine abode, Which there the blest shall know! Swift comes the hour when none can toil, Short is the rugged way: Teach us our lamps to fill with oil, Whilst it is called today. Then we shall see that glorious light Which to the saints is given, So sweet, so fair, so passing bright, The eternal morn of heaven.

• [Psa 30:4] From All Thy Saints In Warfare

  From all Thy saints in warfare, for all Thy saints at rest, To Thee, O blessèd Jesus, all praises be addressed; Thou, Lord, didst win the battle, that they might conquerors be; Their crowns of living glory are lit with rays from Thee. Praise, Lord, for Thine apostle, the first to welcome Thee, The first to lead his brother the very Christ to see. With hearts for Thee made ready, watch we throughout the year, Forward to lead our brethren to own Thine Advent near. All praise for Thine apostle, whose short lived doubtings prove Thy perfect twofold nature, the fullness of Thy love. On all who wait Thy coming shed forth Thy peace, O Lord, And grant us faith to know Thee, true Man, true God, adored. Praise for the first of martyrs, who saw Thee ready stand To aid in midst of torments, to plead at God’s right hand. Share we with him, if summoned by death our Lord to own, On earth the faithful witness, in heaven the martyr’s crown. Praise for the loved disciple, exiled on Patmos’ shore; Praise for the faithful record he to Thy Godhead bore, Praise for the mystic vision through him to us revealed. May we, in patience waiting, with Thine elect be sealed. Praise for Thine infant martyrs, by Thee with tenderest love Called early from the warfare to share the rest above. O Rachel! cease thy weeping: they rest from pains and cares. Lord, grant us hearts as guileless and crowns as bright as theirs. Praise for the light from heaven, praise for the voice of awe, Praise for the glorious vision the persecutor saw. Thee, Lord, for his conversion, we glorify today; So lighten all our darkness with Thy true Spirit’s ray. Lord, Thine abiding presence directs the wondrous choice For one in place of Judas the faithful now rejoice. Thy Church from false apostles forevermore defend, And by Thy parting promise be with her to the end. For him, O Lord, we praise Thee, the weak by grace made strong, Whose labors and whose Gospel enrich our triumph song. May we in all our weakness find strength from Thee supplied, And all, as fruitful branches, in Thee, the Vine, abide. All praise for Thine apostle, blest guide to Greek and Jew, And him surnamed Thy brother; keep us Thy brethren true, And grant us grace to know Thee, the Way, the Truth, the Life; To wrestle with temptations still victors in the strife. The son of consolation, moved by Thy law of love, Forsaking earthly treasures, sought riches from above. As earth now teems with increase, let gifts of grace descend, That Thy true consolations may through the world extend. We praise Thee for the Baptist, forerunner of the Word, Our true Elias, making a highway for the Lord. Of prophets last and greatest, we saw Thy dawning ray: Make us the rather blessèd who love Thy glorious day. Praise for thy great apostle, the eager and the bold; Thrice falling, yet repentant, thrice charged to keep Thy fold. Lord, make Thy pastors faithful to guard their flocks from ill, And grant them dauntless courage, with humble, earnest will. For him, O Lord, we praise Thee, who, slain by Herod’s sword Drank of Thy cup of suffering, fulfilling thus Thy word. Curb we all vain impatience to read Thy veiled decree, And count it joy to suffer, if so brought nearer Thee. All praise for Thine apostle, the faithful, pure, and true, Whom underneath the fig tree Thine eye all seeing knew. Like him may we be guileless, true Israelites indeed, That Thy abiding presence our longing souls may feed. Praise, Lord, for Him whose Gospel Thy human life declared, Who, worldly gains forsaking, Thy path of suffering shared. From all unrighteous Mammon O give us hearts set free, That we, whate’er our calling, may rise and follow Thee. For that “beloved Physician,” all praise, whose Gospel shows The Healer of the nations, The Sharer of our woes. Thy wine and oil, O Savior, and bruised hearts deign to pour, And with true balm of Gilead anoint us evermore. Praise, Lord, for Thine apostles, who sealed their faith today: One love, one zeal impelled them to tread the sacred way. May we with zeal as earnest the faith of Christ maintain, And, bound in love as brethren, at length Thy rest attain. Apostles, prophets, martyrs, and all the sacred throng, Who wear the spotless raiment, who raise the ceaseless song, For these, passed on before us, Savior, we Thee adore, And, walking in their footsteps, would serve Thee more and more. Then praise we God the Father, and praise we God the Son, And God the Holy Spirit, eternal Three in One; Till all the ransomed number fall down before the throne, And honor, power, and glory, ascribe to God alone.

The passions of my hope and fear Maintained a doubtful strife, While sorrow, pain, and sin conspired To take away my life. “My times are in Thine hand,” I cried, “Though I draw near the dust”; Thou art the Refuge where I hide, The God in Whom I trust. O make Thy reconcilèd face Upon Thy servant shine, And save me for Thy mercy’s sake, For I’m entirely Thine. ’Twas in my haste my spirit said, “I must despair and die, I am cut off before Thine eyes”; But Thou hast heard my cry.

Psalms 44:23-24

• [Psa 44:24] God, Who Omniscient Art

  God, who omniscient art, Could we from Thee depart, Hide aught from Thee, Thou, Lord, would search it out, Know all our sin and doubt, Searching within, without, Our secrets see. Sorely oppressed are we, Naught but affliction see, O Lord, awake! Lord, from Thy sleep arise, No longer close Thine eyes; See how we are despised, All for Thy sake. Humbled unto the dust, In Thee alone we trust; Thy love we plead. Refuge in Thee to take, Lord, for Thy mercy’s sake, Our humble plea we make: Thy help we need.

  Early, my God, without delay, I haste to seek Thy face; My thirsty spirit faints away Without Thy cheering grace. So pilgrims on the scorching sand, Beneath a burning sky, Long for a cooling stream at hand, And they must drink or die. I’ve seen Thy glory and Thy power Through all Thy temple shine; My God, repeat that heav’nly hour, That vision so divine. Not all the blessings of a feast Can please my soul so well, As when Thy richer grace I taste, And in Thy presence dwell. Not life itself, with all her joys, Can my best passions move, Or raise so high my cheerful voice, As Thy forgiving love. Thus till my last expiring day I’ll bless my God and King; Thus will I lift my hands to pray, And tune my lips to sing.

To the land where the Savior of sinners once trod, Where He labored and languished and died; Where He triumphed o’er death and ascended to God, As He captive captivity led. They have gone to the land where the Gospel’s glad sound Sweetly tuned by the angels above Was re-echoed on earth thro’ the regions around, In the accents of heavenly love. Where the Spirit descended in tokens of flame, The rich gifts of His grace to reveal; Where apostles wrought signs in Immanuel’s name, For the truth of their mission to seal. They have gone—the glad heralds of mercy—have gone, To the land where the martyrs once bled; Where the beasts and false prophet have since trodden down, The fair fabric that Zion had reared. Where the churches once planted, and watered, and blessed, With the dews of the Spirit distilled, Have been smitten, despoiled! and by heathen possessed, And the places that knew them defiled. They have gone, O Thou Shepherd of Israel! have gone, The glad mission in love to restore; Thou wilt never forsake them or leave them alone, Thy rich blessings we humbly implore.

  Hallelujah! raise, O raise To our God the song of praise; All His servants join to sing God our Savior and our King. Blessèd be forevermore That dread Name which we adore; Round the world His praise be sung Through all lands, in every tongue. O’er all nations God alone, Higher than the heav’ns His throne; Who is like to God most high, Infinite in majesty! Yet to view the heav’ns He bends; Yea, to earth He condescends; Passing by the rich and great, For the low and desolate. He can raise the poor to stand With the princes of the land; Wealth upon the needy shower; Set him with the high in power. He the broken spirit cheers: Turns to joy the mourner’s tears; Such the wonders of His ways; Praise His Name, forever praise!

  Praise God, ye servants of the Lord, O praise His Name with one accord; Bless ye the Lord, His Name adore From this time forth forevermore, From this time forth forevermore. From rising unto setting sun Praised be the Lord, the Mighty One; He reigns o’er all, supreme in might, Above the heavens in glory bright, Above the heavens in glory bright. On whom but God can we rely, The Lord our God Who reigns on high, Who condescends to see and know The things of heaven and earth below, The things of heaven and earth below? He lifts the poor and makes them great, With joy He fills the desolate; Praise ye the Lord and bless His Name, His mercy and His might proclaim, His mercy and His might proclaim. The barren woman feels His power And comes to sacred motherhood, Adorns with grace the home of man. Sing hallelujah! God is good.

  Servants of God, in joyful lays, Sing ye the Lord Jehovah’s praise; His glorious Name let all adore, From age to age, forevermore. Blest be that Name, supremely blest, From the sun’s rising to its rest; Above the heav’ns His pow’r is known, Through all the earth His goodness shown. Who is like God? so great, so high, He bows Himself to view the sky; And yet, with condescending grace, Looks down upon the human race. He hears the uncomplaining moan Of those who sit and weep alone; He lifts the mourner from the dust; In Him the poor may safely trust. O then, aloud, in joyful lays, Sing to the Lord Jehovah’s praise; His saving Name let all adore, From age to age, forevermore.

• [Psa 119:41] Let Everlasting Glories Crown

  Let everlasting glories crown Thy head, my Savior and my Lord; Thy hands have brought salvation down, And writ the blessings in Thy Word. What if we trace the globe around, And search from Britain to Japan, There shall be no religion found So just to God, so safe for man. In vain the trembling conscience seeks Some solid ground to rest upon; With long despair the spirit breaks, Till we apply to Christ alone. How well Thy blessèd truths agree! How wise and holy Thy commands! Thy promises, how firm they be! How firm our hope and comfort stands. Not the feigned fields of heath’nish bliss Could raise such pleasures in the mind; Nor does the Turkish paradise Pretend to joys so well refined. Should all the forms that men devise Assault my faith with treach’rous art, I’d call them vanity and lies, And bind the Gospel to my heart.

Psalms 119:93-94

• [Psa 119:94] Peace, Doubting Heart!

  Peace, doubting heart! my God’s I am; Who formed me man, forbids my fear; The Lord hath called me by my name; The Lord protects, for ever near; His blood for me did once atone, And still He loves and guards His own. When passing through the watery deep, I ask in faith He promised aid, The waves all awful distance keep, And shrink from my devoted head; Fearless their violence I dare; They cannot harm, for God is there! To Him mine eye of faith I turn, And through the fire pursue my way; The fire forgets its power to burn, The lambent flames around me play; I own His power, accept the sign, And shout to prove the Savior mine. Still nigh me, O my Savior, stand! And guard in fierce temptation’s hour; Hide in the hollow of Thy hand, Show forth in me Thy saving power, Still be Thy arms my sure defense, Nor earth nor hell shall pluck me thence. Since Thou hast bid me come to Thee, Good as Thou art, and strong to save I’ll walk o’er life’s tempestuous sea, Upborne by the unyielding wave, Dauntless, though rocks of pride be near, And yawning whirlpools of despair. When darkness intercepts the skies, And sorrow’s waves around me roll, When high the storms of passion rise, And half o’erwhelm my sinking soul, My soul a sudden calm shall feel, And hear a whisper, “Peace; be still!” Though in affliction’s furnace tried, Unhurt on snares and death I’ll tread; Though sin assail, and hell, thrown wide, Pour all its flames upon my head, Like Moses’ bush, I’ll mount the higher, And flourish unconsumed in fire.

Psalms 119:114

• [Psa 119:114] Hail, Sovereign Love

  Hail, sovereign love that first began, The scheme to rescue fallen man; Hail matchless free eternal grace, That gave my soul a hiding place. Against the God who rules the sky, I fought with hand uplifted high, Despised the mention of His grace, Too proud to seek a hiding place. Enwrapped in thick Egyptian night, And fond of darkness more than light, Madly I ran the sinful race, Secure without a hiding place. But thus th’ eternal counsel ran, “Almighty Love, arrest that man!” I felt the arrows of distress, And found I had no hiding place. Indignant justice stood in view, To Sinai’s fiery mount I flew, But Justice cried with frowning face, “This mountain is no hiding place!” Ere long a heavenly voice I heard, And Mercy’s angel form appeared. Who led me on with gentle pace, To Jesus Christ, my hiding place. On Him Almighty vengeance fell, That must have sunk a world to hell; He bore it for a chosen race, And thus became their hiding place. Should storms of sevenfold vengeance roll, And shake this earth from pole to pole; No flaming bolt could daunt my face, For Jesus is my hiding place. A few more rolling suns at most, Shall land me safe on Heaven’s coast. There I shall sing the song of grace, To Jesus Christ, my hiding place!

Psalms 119:118-120

• [Psa 119:120] Ah, What Can I Do?

  Ah, what can I do, or where be secure? If justice pursue, what heart can endure? When God speaks in thunder and makes Himself known, The heart breaks asunder though hard as a stone. With terror I read my sins’ heavy score, The numbers exceed the sands on the shore; Guilt makes me unable to stand or to flee, So Cain murdered Abel, and trembled like me. Each sin, like his blood, with terrible cry, Calls loudly on God to strike from on high: Nor can my repentance, extorted by fear, Reverse the just sentence;’tis just, though severe. The case is too plain,I have my own choice; Again, and againI slighted His voice; His warnings neglected,His patience abused, His Gospel rejected,His mercy refused. And must I then go, forever to dwell In torments and woe with devils in hell? Oh where is the SaviorI scorned in times past? His word in my favor would save me at last. Lord Jesus, on TheeI venture to call, Oh look upon me, the vilest of all! For whom didst Thou languish and bleed on the tree? Oh pity my anguish, and say, “’Twas for thee.” A case such as mine will honor Thy power; All hell will repine, all Heav’n will adore; If in condemnation strict justice takes place, It shines in salvation more glorious through grace.

Exalt the Lord, His praise proclaim; All ye His servants, praise His Name, Who in the Lord’s house ever stand And humbly serve at His command, Forever praise and bless His Name, And in the church His praise proclaim; In Zion is His dwelling place; Praise ye the Lord, show forth His grace.

• [Psa 135:1] O Praise Ye The Name Of Jehovah

  O praise ye Name of Jehovah, Proclaim ye His glory abroad; O praise Him, ye servants appointed To stand in the house of our God. O praise ye the Lord for His goodness; ’Tis pleasant His praises to sing; His people, His chosen and precious, Your praises with gratitude bring. I know that the Lord is almighty, Supreme in dominion is He, Performing His will and good pleasure In Heaven and in earth and the sea. His hand guides the clouds in their courses, The lightning flames forth at His will, The wind and the rain He releases His sovereign designs to fulfill. To ransom His people from bondage Great wonders and signs He displayed; He smote all the first-born of Egypt, Till Pharaoh made haste and obeyed. Great nations and kings that opposed Him Were smitten by God’s mighty hand; Their riches He gave to His people, And made them inherit the land. Thy Name shall abide, O Jehovah, Through all generations renowned; The Lord is the Judge of His people, His mercies forever abound. Men’s idols of gold and of silver Can speak not, nor hearken, nor see; Like them shall their makers be helpless, Unblest shall their worshippers be. Ye people who worship Jehovah, His praises with gladness proclaim; His servants, and all ye that fear Him, Sing praise to His glorious Name. O Church of our God, sing His praises, For with you and in you He dwells; O sing hallelujahs before Him, Whose glory all praises excels.

• [Psa 135:1] Praise, Praise His Name

  On the desert mountain straying, Far, far from home, Heard I there a sweet voice, saying, “Why wilt Thou roam?” Refrain ’Twas my blessèd Lord that sought me, Out of sin to grace He brought me, Oh the glad, new song He taught me, Praise, praise His Name. At a throne of mercy kneeling, Sad and oppressed, Came that voice, to me revealing Hope, life and rest. Refrain Oft I heard that voice repeating, “I am the Way. Tarry not, the hours are fleeting, Come, come today.” Refrain When from glory unto glory My flight shall be, Still I’ll sing the precious story, Savior, of Thee. Refrain

• [Psa 137:5] I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord

  I love Thy kingdom, Lord, The house of Thine abode, The church our blessed Redeemer saved With His own precious blood. I love Thy church, O God. Her walls before Thee stand, Dear as the apple of Thine eye, And written on Thy hand. If e’er to bless Thy sons My voice or hands deny, These hands let useful skills forsake, This voice in silence die. Should I with scoffers join Her altars to abuse? No! Better far my tongue were dumb, My hand its skill should lose. For her my tears shall fall For her my prayers ascend, To her my cares and toils be given Till toils and cares shall end. Beyond my highest joy I prize her heavenly ways, Her sweet communion, solemn vows, Her hymns of love and praise. Jesus, Thou Friend divine, Our Savior and our King, Thy hand from every snare and foe Shall great deliverance bring. Sure as Thy truth shall last, To Zion shall be given The brightest glories earth can yield And brighter bliss of Heaven.

  Far from my heavenly home, Far from my Father’s breast, Fainting I cry, blest Spirit, come And speed me to my rest. Upon the willows long My harp has silent hung: How should I sing a cheerful song Till Thou inspire my tongue? My spirit homeward turns And fain would thither flee; My heart, O Zion, droops and yearns, When I remember thee. To thee, to thee I press, A dark and toilsome road; When shall I pass the wilderness, And reach the saint’s abode?

Thy all surrounding sight surveys My rising and my rest, My public walks, my private ways, The secrets of my breast. My thoughts lie open to Thee, Lord, Before they’re formed within; And ere my lips pronounce the word, Thou knowest the sense I mean. O wondrous knowledge! deep and high: Where can a creature hide? Within Thy circling arms I lie, Beset on every side. So let Thy grace surround me still, And like a bulwark prove, To guard my soul from every ill, Secured by sovereign love.

• [Psa 139:1] Lord, Thou Hast Searched And Seen Me Through

  Lord, Thou hast searched and seen me through, Thine eye commands with piercing view My rising and my resting hours, My heart and flesh with all their powers. My thoughts, before they are my own, Are to my God distinctly known; He knows the words I mean to speak Ere from my opening lips they break. Within Thy circling power I stand; On every side I find Thy hand; Awake, asleep, at home, abroad, I am surrounded still with God. Amazing knowledge, vast and great! What large extent! what lofty height! My soul, with all the powers I boast, Is in the boundless prospect lost. Could I so false, so faithless prove, To quit Thy service and Thy love, Where, Lord, could I Thy presence shun, Or from Thy dreadful glory run? If up to Heav’n I take my flight, ’Tis there Thou dwell’st enthroned in light Or dive to hell, there vengeance reigns, And Satan groans beneath Thy chains. If, mounted on a morning ray, I fly beyond the western sea, Thy swifter hand would first arrive, And there arrest Thy fugitive. Or should I try to shun Thy sight Beneath the spreading veil of night, One glance of Thine, one piercing ray, Would kindle darkness into day. The veil of night is no disguise, No screen from Thy all-searching eyes; Thy hand can seize Thy foes as soon Through midnight shades as blazing noon. Midnight and noon in this agree, Great God, they’re both alike to Thee; Not death can hide what God will spy, And hell lies naked to His eye. O may these thoughts possess my breast, Where’er I rove, where’er I rest! Nor let my weaker passions dare Consent to sin, for God is there.
