What happy Men, or Angels, these

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.XL (1766) Topics: Blessedness and Business of Heaven Lyrics: 1 What happy Men, or Angels, these, That all their Robes are spotless white? Whence did this glorious Troop arrive At the pure Realms of Heav'nly Light? 2 From tott'ring Racks and burning Fires, And Seas of their own Blood they came: But nobler Blood has wash'd their Robes, Flowing from Christ the dying Lamb. 3 Now they approach th' Almighty Throne With loud Hosannas Night and Day; Sweet Anthems to the Great Three One, Measure their blest Eternity. 4 No more shall Hunger pain their Souls, He bids their parching Thirst be gone, And spreads the Shadow of his Wings, To screen 'em from the scorching Sun. 5 The Lamb that fills the Middle Throne Shall shed around his milder Beams; There shall they feast on his rich Love, And drink full Joys from living Streams. 6 Thus shall their mighty Bliss renew Through the vast Round of endless Years, And the soft Hand of Sov'reign Grace Heals all their Wounds, and wipes their Tears. Scripture: Revelation 7:13-17 Languages: English

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.XLI (1766) Topics: Blessedness and Business of Heaven Lyrics: 1 These glorious Minds how bright they shine! Whence all their white Array? How came they to the happy Seats Of Everlasting Day? 2 From tott'ring Pains to endless Joys On fiery Wheels they rode, And strangely wash'd their Raiment white In Jesus dying Blood. 3 Now they approach a spotless God, And bow before his Throne, Their warbling Harps and sacred Songs Adore the Holy One. 4 The unveil'd Glories of his Face Amongst his Saints reside, While the rich Treasure of his Grace Sees all their Wants supply'd. 5 Tormenting Thirst shall leave their Souls, And Hunger flee as fast; The Fruit of Life's immortal Tree Shall be their sweet Repast. 6 The Lamb shall lead his heav'nly Flock Where living Fountains rise, And Love divine shall wipe away The Sorrows of their Eyes. Scripture: Revelation 7:13-17 Languages: English

Not to condemn the Sons of Men

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.C (1766) Topics: Gospel Times Their Blessedness Lyrics: 1 Not to condemn the Sons of Men, Did Christ the Son of God, appear; No Weapons in his Hands are seen, No flaming Sword, nor Thunder there. 2 Such was the Pity of our God, He lov'd the Race of Man so well, He sent his Son to bear our Load, Of Sins, and save our Souls from Hell. 3 Sinners believe the Saviour's Word, Trust in his mighty Name, and live; A thousand Joys his Lips afford, His Hands a thousand Blessings give. 4 But Vengeance and Damnation lies On Rebels who refuse the Grace; Who God's eternal Son despise, The hottest Hell shall be their Place. Scripture: John 3:16-18 Languages: English

Our Sins, alas, how strong they be!

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LXXXVI (1766) Topics: Blessedness and Business of Heaven Lyrics: 1 Our Sins, alas, how strong they be! And like a violent Sea, They break our Duty, Lord, to Thee, And hurry us away. 2 The Waves of Trouble, how they rise! How loud the Tempests roar! But Death shall land our weary Souls Safe on the heav'nly Shore. 3 There, to fulfil his sweet Commands, Our speedy Feet shall move, No Sin shall clog our winged Zeal, Or cool our burning Love. 4 There shall we sit, and sing, and tell The Wonders of his Grace, Till heav'nly Raptures fire our Hearts, And smile in every Face. 5 For ever his dear sacred Name Shall dwell upon our Tongue, And Jesus and Salvation be The Close of ev'ry Song.

'Tis Heav'n to rest in thine Embrace, And no where else but there.] [4 To Thee, and Thee alone, The Angels owe their Bliss; They sit around thy gracious Throne, And dwell where Jesus is.] [5 Not all the Harps above Can make a heav'nly Place, If God his Residence remove, Or but conceal his Face.] 6 Nor Earth, nor all the sky, Can one Delight afford, No, not a Drop of real Joy Without thy Presence, Lord. [7 Thou art the Sea of Love, Where all my Pleasures roll, The Circle where my Passions move, And Center of my Soul. [8 To Thee my Spirits fly With infinite Desire, And yet how far from Thee I lie! Dear Jesus, raise me higher. Languages: English

My God, my Portion, and my Love

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.XCIV (1766) Topics: Blessedness only in God Lyrics: 1 My God, my Portion, and my Love, My everlasting All, I've none but Thee in Heav'n above, Or on this earthly Ball. [2 What empty Things are all the Skies, And this inferior Clod? There's nothing here deserves my Joys, There's nothing like my God.] [3 In vain the bright, the burning sun Scatters his feeble Light; 'Tis thy sweet Beams create my Noon; If thou withdraw, 'tis Night. 4 And whilst upon my restless Bed, Amongst the Shades, I roll, If my Redeemer shew his Head, 'Tis Morning with my Soul.] 5 To Thee we owe our Wealth and friends, And Health and safe Abode; Thanks to thy Name for meaner Things, But they are not my God. 6 How vain a Toy is glitt'ring Wealth, If once compar'd to Thee? Or what's my Safety, or my Health, Or all my Friends to me? 7 Were I Possessor of the Earth, And call'd the Stars my own, Without thy Graces and thyself I were a Wretch undone. 8 Let others stretch their Arms like Seas And grasp in all the Shore, Grant me the Visits of thy Face, And I desire no more.
