Broad is the road that leads to death

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 456 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death And thousands walk together there; But wisdom shows a narrow path, With here and there a traveler. 2 “Deny thyself, and take thy cross,” Is the Redeemer’s great command; Nature must count her gold but dross, If she would gain this heav’nly land. 3 The fearful soul that tires and faints And walks the ways of God no more, Is but esteemed almost a saint, And makes his own destruction sure. 4 Lord, let not all my hopes be vain, Create my heart entirely new, Which hypocrites could ne’er attain, Which false apostates never knew. Used With Tune: WINDHAM

Brethren, we have met to worship

Author: George Atkin Appears in 248 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Brethren, we have met to worship, And adore the Lord our God; Will you pray with all your power, While we try to preach the Word? All is vain unless the Spirit Of the Holy One comes down; Brethren, pray and holy manna Will be showered all around. 2. Brethren, see poor sinners ’round you, Trembling on the brink of woe; Death is coming, hell is moving, Can you bear to let them go? See our fathers, see our mothers, And our children sinking down; Brethren, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 3. Sisters, will you join and help us? Moses’ sisters aided him; Will you help the trembling mourners, Who are struggling hard with sin? Tell them all about the Savior, Tell them that He will be found; Sisters, pray, and holy manna Will be showered all around. 4. Is there here a trembling jailer, Seeking grace, and filled with tears? Is there here a weeping Mary, Pouring forth a flood of tears? Brethren, join your cries to help them; Sisters, let your prayers abound; Pray, Oh pray that holy manna May be scattered all around. 5. Let us love our God supremely, Let us love each other, too; Let us love and pray for sinners, Till our God makes all things new. Then He’ll call us home to heaven, At His table we’ll sit down; Christ will gird Himself, and serve us With sweet manna all around. Used With Tune: HOLY MANNA
