Hymn. 1 YE glittring toys of earth, adieu; . A nobler choice be mine: A treasure all divine. 2 Be gone, unworthy of my cares, Ye specious baits of 'sense;- The Pearl of Price immense!... 3 JESUS, to multitudes unknown, O Name divinely sweet! Wealth, honour, pleasure, meet. 4. Should both the Indies, at my call, Their boasted stores resign; For leave to call Thee mine. 5 Should earth's vain treasures all depart; Of this dear gift possess'd, ! And be for ever bless'd. . 6 Dear Sov’reign of my soul's desires, Thy love is bliss divine; And bid me call Thee mine. Hymn. i DEEP are the wounds which sin has made; Where shall the sinner find a cure ? In vain, alas! is nature's aid; The work exceeds all nature's pow'r. 2 Sin, like a raging fever, reigns With fatal strength in ev'ry part; And spreads it's poison to the heart. 3 And can no sov'reign balm be found? And is no kind physician nigh Ere life and hope for ever fly? 4 There is a great Physician near; Look up, O faiņting soul, and live; See, in His heav'nly smiles appear Such ease as nature cannot give! 5 See in the SAVIOUR's dying blood Life, health, and bliss, abundant flow! "Tis only this dear sacred flood Can ease thy pain, and heal thy woe. 6 Sin throws in vain it's pointed dart; - For here a sov'reign cure is found, A cordial for the fainting heart, A balm for every painful wound., 1 HAIL, sov'reign Love, that first began The scheme to rescue fall'n man; That gave my soul a hiding-place. I fought with hands uplifted high; 3 'Ere long the Gospel voice I heard, 4. Should storms of seven-fold thunder roll, And shake the globe from pole to pole, No flaming bolt could daunt my face, For Jesus is my hiding-place. 5 On Him Almighty vengeance fell; Thus must have sunk a world to hell: 6 A few more rolling suns at most, Will land me on fair Canaan's coast, Where I shall sing the song of grace, .. And see my glorious hiding-place! i "I AM,” saith Christ our glorious Head, (May we attention give,) The Life of all that live. 2 " By faith in Me, the soul receives New life, though dead before ; Shall live, to die no more,” 3 Fulfil Thy promise, gracious LORD, On us assembled here ; And cause the dead to hear. 4 Preserve the power of faith alive In those who love Thy Name; For sin and Satan daily strive To quench the sacred flame. 5 Thy power and mercy first prevail'd, From death to set us free; If not renew'd by Thee.. 6 To Thee we look, to Thee we bow, To Thee for help we call;, . Our Hope, our Joy, our All, Hymn. Christ our Wisdom, Righteousness, Sanctification, and Redemption. We lie till CHRIST restores the light; And chase the darkness of the mind. 2 Our guilty souls are drown'd in tears Till His atoning blood appears; 3 Our very frame is mix'd with sin; His Spirit makes our natures clean; 4 JESUS beholds where Satan reigns, Binding his slaves in heavy chains; 5 Poor helpless worms in Thee possess |
