Grace above Riches; or, The Happy Nation
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #265a (1740) Topics: Assistance from God First Line: Happy the City, where their Sons Lyrics: 1 Happy the City, where their Sons,
Like Pillars round a Palace set,
And Daughters, bright as polish'd Stones,
Give Strength and Beauty to the State.
2 Happy the Country, where the Sheep,
Cattle and Corn, have large Increase;
Where Men securely work or sleep,
Nor Sons of Plunder break the Peace.
3 Happy the Nation thus endow'd,
But more divinely blest are those
On whom the All-Sufficient GOD
Himself with all his Grace bestows. Scripture: Psalm 144:12-15 Languages: English
Grace above Riches; or, The Happy Nation
For ever blessed be the Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #359 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Assistance from God Lyrics:
For ever blessed be the Lord,
My Savior and my shield;
He sends his Spirit with his word,
To arm me for the field.
When sin and hell their force unite,
He makes my soul his care,
Instructs me to the heav'nly fight,
And guards me through the war.
A friend and helper so divine
Does my weak courage raise;
He makes the glorious vict'ry mine,
And his shall be the praise.

When I can read my Title clear
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LXV (1766) Topics: Assistance against Temptations; Assurance of Heven; Comfort in Sorrows of Mind and Body; Courage and Constancy; Deliverance from Spiritual Enemy; Hope of Heaven our Support under Trials; Light in Darkness by the Presence of God; Temptations of the Devil Lyrics: 1 When I can read my Title clear
To Mansions in the Skies,
I bid Farewel to ev'ry Fear,
And wipe my weeping Eyes.
2 Should Earth against my Soul engage,
And hellish Darts be hurl'd,
Then I can smile at Satan's Rage,
And face a frowning World.
3 Let Cares like a wild Deluge come,
And Storms of Sorrow fall;
May I but safely reach my Home,
My God, my Heav'n my All.
4 There shall I bathe my weary Soul
In Seas of heav'nly Rest;
And not a Wave of Trouble roll
Across my peaceful Breast. Languages: English
When I can read my Title clear
