A prayer

Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CLIV (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Be with me, Lord, where'ere I go Lyrics: 1 Be with me, Lord, where'ere I go; Learn me what thou would'st have me do: Suggest whate'ere I think or say; Direct me in the narrow way. 2 Prevent me, lest I harbour pride; Lest I in my own strength confide; Shew me my weakness let me see, I have my pow'r my All from thee, 3 Enrich me always with thy love; My kind protector ever prove; Thy signet put upon my brest; And let thy Spirit on me rest. 4 Assist, and teach me how to pray; Incline my nature to obey, What thou abhor'st, that let me flee, And only love what pleases thee. 5 O may I never do my will, But thine, and only thine fulfill; Let all my time and all my ways, Be spent and ended in thy praise.

Choosing the better part

Author: Doddridge Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CXXIX (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Beset with snares on every hand Lyrics: 1 Beset with snares on every hand, In life’s uncertain path I stand: Saviour divine, diffuse thy light, To guide my doubtful footsteps right. 2 Engage this roving treacherous heart, To fix on Mary's better part; To scorn the trifles of a day, For joys, that none can take away. 3 Then let the wildest storms arise: Let tempests mingle earth and skies; No fatal shipwreck shall I fear, But all my treasures with me bear. 4 If thou, my JESUS, still be nigh, Cheerful I live, and joyful die; Secure, when mortal comforts flee, To find ten thousand worlds in thee.

Pardon

Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CXXXII (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Blest is the man, for ever bless'd Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man, forever bless'd, Whose guilt is pardon'd by his GOD, Whose sins with sorrow are confess'd, And cover'd with his Saviour's blood. 2 Bless'd is the man to whom the Lord Imputes not his iniquities, He pleads no merit of reward, And not on works, bu grace relies. 3 From guile his heart and lips are free, His humble joy, his holy fear With deep repentance well agree, And join to prove his faith sincere. 4 How glorious is that righteousness That hides and cancels all his sins! While a bright evidence of grace Thro' all his life appears and shines. Scripture: Psalm 32 Languages: English

The way and end of the righteous and wicked

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #XCIX (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Blest is the man, who shuns the place Lyrics: 1 Blest is the man, who shuns the place Where sinners love to meet; Who fears to tread their wicked ways, And hates the scoffer’s seat. 2 But in the statutes of the Lord Has plac'd his chief delight; By day he reads or hears the word, And meditates by night. 3 Green as the leaf and ever fair, Shall his profession shine; While fruits of holiness appear Like clusters on the vine. 4 Not so the impious and unjust; What vain designs they form! Their hopes are blown away like dust, Or chaff before the storm. 5 Sinners in judgment shall not stand Among the sons of grace, When Christ the judge at his right hand Appoints his saints a place. 6 His eye beholds the path they tread, His heart approves it well; But crooked ways of sinners lead Down to the gates of hell. Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English

The almost Christian

Author: Dr. Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CXLVI (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Broad is the road that leads to death Lyrics: 1 Broad is the road that leads to death, And thousands walk together there; But wisdom shews a narrow'r path, With here and there a traveller. 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 heavenly 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. Languages: English

The Law and Gospel

Hymnal: A Selection of Psalms and Hymns #CXLIV (1790) Topics: After Sermon First Line: Curst be the man for ever curst Lyrics: 1 Curst be the man for ever curst, "That doth one wilful sin commit; "Death and damnation for the first, Without relief, and infinite." 2 Thus Sinai roars; and round the earth Thunder, and fire, and vengeance flings; But Jesus thy dear gasping breath, And Calvary say gentler things. 3 "Pardon and grace, and boundless love "Streaming along a Saviour's blood, "And life, and joys, and crowns above, "Ordain'd by a dear bleeding God." 4 Hark how he prays, (the charming sound, Dwells on his dying lips) forgive; And every groan, and gaping wound, Cries, "Father, let the rebels live." 5 Go, you that rest upon the law, And toil and seek salvation there, Look to the flame that Moses saw, And shrink, and tremble, and despair. 6 But I'll retire beneath the cross, Saviour at thy dear feet I'll lie; And the keen sword that justice draws, Flaming and red, shall pass me by.
