O for a thousand tongues to sing

Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #I (1788) Topics: Awakening and Inviting Lyrics: 1 O for a thousand tongues to sing, My dear Redeemer's praise! The glories of my God and King, The triumphs of his grace! 2 My gracious Master, and my God, Assist me to proclaim, To spread through all the earth abroad, The honours of thy name. 3 Jesus, the name that charms our fears, That bids our sorrows cease; 'Tis music in the sinner's ears, 'Tis life, and health, and peace. 4 He breaks the Power of cancell'd sin, He sets the pris'ner free; His blood can make the foulest clean; His blood availed me. 5 Look unto him, ye nations, own Your God, ye fallen race; Look, and be sav'd through faith alone, Be justify'd by grace! 6 See all your sins on Jesus laid; The Lamb of God was slain, His soul was once an off'ring made For every soul of man. 7 With me, your Chief ye then shall know, Shall feel your sins forgiv'n; Anticipate your heav'n below, And own that love is heav'n.

Come, ye sinners, poor and needy

Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #II (1788) Topics: Awakening and Inviting Lyrics: 1 Come, ye sinners, poor and needy, Weak and wounded, sick and sore, Jesus ready stands to save you, Full of pity, love and pow'r; He is able, He is willing, doubt no more. 2 Now ye needy, come and welcome, God's free bounty glorify; True belief and true repentance, Every grace that brings you nigh; Without money, Come to Jesus Christ and buy. 3 Let not conscience make you linger, Nor of fitness fondly dream, All the fitness he requires, Is to feel you need of him; This he gives you, 'Tis the Spirit's glimm'ring beam. 4 Agonizing in the garden, Lo! your Maker prostrate lies! On the bloody tree behold him! Hear him cry before he dies, "It is finish'd!" Sinner, will not this suffice? 5 Lo! th' incarnate God ascending, Pleads the merit of his blood; Venture on him, venture freely, Let no other trust intrude; None but Jesus Can do helpless sinners good. 6 Saints and angels join'd in concert, Sing the praises of the Lamb; While the blissful seats of heaven, Sweetly echo with his mame; Hallelujah! Sinners here may do the same. Languages: English

Sinners, turn, why will ye die?

Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #IV (1788) Topics: Awakening and Inviting Lyrics: 1 Sinners! turn, why will ye die? God, your Maker, asks you why? God, who did your being give, Made you with himself to live: He the fatal cause demands, Asks the works of his own hands; Why, ye thankless creatures, why Will ye cross his love and die? 2 Sinners, turn, why will ye die? God, your Saviour, asks you why? God, who did our souls retrive, Dy'd himself, that you might live, Will you let him die in vain? Crucify your Lord again? Why, ye ransom'd sinners, why Will ye slight his grace, and die? 3 Sinners, turn, why will ye die? God the Spirit, asks you why? He, who all your lives hath strove, Woo'd you to embrace his love; Will you not the grace receive? Will you still refuse to live? Why, ye long-sought sinners, why Will you grieve your God, and die? 4 Dead, already dead within, Spiritually dead in sin, Dead to God, while here you breathe, Pant ye after second death? Will you still in sin remain, Greedy of eternal pain? O ye dying sinners, why, Why will you for ever die? Scripture: Ezekiel 18:31 Languages: English

Thee we adore, eternal name

Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #VIII (1788) Topics: Awakening and Inviting Lyrics: 1 Thee, we adore, eternal name, And humbly own to thee, How feeble is our mortal frame, What dying worms we be! 2 Our wasting lives grow shorter still, As days and months increase; And ev'ry beating pulse we tell, Leaves but the number less. 3 The year rolls round and steals away The breath that first it gave: Whate'er we do, where'er we be, We're trav'ling to the grave. 4 Dangers stand thick through all the ground, To push us to the tomb; And fierce diseases wait around, To hurry mortals home. 5 Great God! on what a slender thread Hang everlasting things! Th' eternal states of all the dead, Upon life's feeble strings! 6 Infinite joy, or endless woe, Attends on ev'ry breath; And yet how unconcern'd we go Upon the brink of death! 7 Waken, O Lord, our drowsy sense, To walk this dang'rous road; And if our souls are hurry'd hence, May they be found with God!

When rising from the bed of death

Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #IX (1788) Topics: Awakening and Inviting Lyrics: 1 When rising from the bed of death, O’erwhelmed with guilt and fear, I view my Maker face to face O how shall I appear! 2 If yet while pardon may be found, And mercy may be sought; My soul with inward horror shrinks, And trembles at the thought! 3 When thou, O Lord shalt stand disclos'd In majesty severe, And sit in judgment on my soul, O how shall I appear! 4 O may my broken contrite heart, Timely my sins lament, And early with repentant tears, Eternal woe prevent. 5 Behold the sorrows of my Heart, Ere yet it be too late; And hear my Saviour’s dying groan; To give those sorrows weight. 6 For never shall my soul despair Her Pardon to secure, Who knows the only Son hath dy'd To make that pardon sure.

And am I born to die?

Hymnal: A Pocket hymn book, designed as a constant companion for the pious #X (1788) Topics: Awakening and Inviting Lyrics: 1 And am I born to die? To lay this body down? And must my trembling spirit fly Into a world unknown? A land of deepest shade, Unpierc'd by human thought! The dreary regions of the dead, Where all things are forgot. 2 Soon as from earth I go, What will become of me? Eternal happiness or woe Must then my portion be! Wak'd by the trumpet's sound, I from my grave must rise, And see the Judge with glory crown'd, And see the flaming skies! 3 How shall I leave my tomb! With triumph or regret? A fearful or a joyful doom, A curse or blessing meet? Will angel-bands convey Their brother to the bar? Or devils drag my soul away To meet its sentence there? 4 Who can resolve the doubt That tears my anxious breast? Shall I be with the damn'd cast out, Or number'd with the blest? I must from God be driv'n, Or with my Saviour dwell: Must come at his command to heav'n, Or else depart to hell. 5 O thou that wouldst not have One wretched sinner die, Who dy'dst thyself, my soul to save From endless misery! Shew me the way to shun Thy dreadful wrath severe, That when thou comest on thy throne, I may with joy appear. 6 Thou art thyself the way, Thyself in me reveal; So shall I spend my life's short day Obedient to thy will; So shall I love my God, Because he first lov'd me, And praise thee in thy bright abode, To all eternity.
