When Adam fell, the Frame entire

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #86 (1732) Lyrics: I. When Adam fell, the Frame entire Of Nature was infected, The Source, whence came the Poison dire, Was not to be corrected, But by God's Grace, which saves our Race From its entire Destruction. The fatal Lust, indulg'd at first, Of Death was the Production. II. Since EVE by Satan was intic'd T'indulge her Deviation From GOD'S Command (which she despis'd," And ruin the Creation; What shou'd be done? but GOD the SON Must in our very Nature Retrieve our Loss by's Blood and Cross, And save the Rebel-Creature. III. By one Man's Guilt we are enslav'd To Sin, Death, Hell and Devil; But by another's Grace was sav'd Mankind from all this Evil: And as we all, by ADAM'S Fall Were sentenc'd to Damnation; So the Nam-God has by his Blood Regain'd our lost Salvation. IV. Has God bestow'd his only Son On us rebellious Creatures, To save our Souls, which were undone, And wash our sinful Natures From all their Guilt by th' Blood he spilt; By's Death and Resurrection? Then no Delay; this is the Day T'insure thy own Election. V. CHRIST is the Way, the Light, the Door, The Hope and Life eternal, The Father's Word and Counsellor To conquer Pow'rs infernal; Our strongest Shield, t'obtain the Field; The Helmet of Salvation. Have we a Share in him, who dare Assign us to Damnation? VI. That Man is impious and unjust, His Hope's Abomination, Who does in God not put his Trust, For Help and for Salvation: He that will frame another Name Than CHRIST'S, to justifie him, Will soon renounce his Confidence, When SATAN comes to try him. VII. But who makes God his Hope and Trust, Shall never be confounded, No Cleaver to this Rock is lost, Tho' ev'ry where surrounded With daring Foes and trying Woes; His Faith yet stands unshaken. Who loves the Lord, shall by no Sword Nor Woe be overtaken. VIII. I send my Cries unto the Lord, My Heart implores his Favour, To grant me of his living Word A never failing Savour; That Sin and Shame may lose the Claim To hinder my Salvation; In CHRIST, the Scope of all my Hope, I 'scape Death and Damnation. IX. Thy Word's a Lanthorn to my Feet; My Soul's best Information; My surest Guide and Path to meet The Morning of Salvation: This leading Star, where't doth appear, Reveals those heav'nly Graces, Which are laid up for all that hope To taste the Lord's Embraces.

O God, my Lord!

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #89 (1732) Lyrics: I. O God, my Lord! How great's my Hoard Of Sin to Condemnation! And where's the Means In these sad Scenes To make Propitiation? II. Shall I, to cleanse Me from my Sins, Traverse all Lands and Oceans? Run to and fro To lose my Woe? Oh! fruitless empty Notions! III. No, I will fly To God, and cry, O, save me from Damnation; For what thy Son Has freely done Is full Propitiation. IV. But if thou wilt Chastise my Guilt, And make me feel thine Arrows; Chastise me here; But keep me clear Of everlasting Sorrows. V. And while, Most High, Thy Arrows flie, O, grant me Resignation To thy blest Will, That ne'er did ill, And bring me to Salvation. VI. And deal with me As seems to Thee Most good, O, Thou Most Holy! Do but avert Th'eternal Smart That's due unto my Folly. VII. As a poor Worm Before a Storm (Clouds gath'ring, Thunder growling) In the Earth hides; And there abides, While smoaking Show'rs are falling; VII. So I, when Sin And Hell begin To threaten my Undoing, Run to the side Of CHRIST, and hide Me from the threaten'd Ruin. IX. His wounded Side My Soul shall hide, When Death shall draw his Arrow. In CHRIST true Faith Redeems from Death And Hell and Sin and Sorrow. X. O! Blessed be Th'Eternal Three The Father, Son, and Spirit; Blest Three in One, To whom the Son Restores us by his Merit.

In Thee, Lord CHRIST, is fix'd my Hope

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #91 (1732) Lyrics: I. In Thee, Lord CHRIST, is fix'd my Hope And only Consolation; I know, thy Mercy bears me up, Whilst in this mortal Station: None of the Holiest round thy Throne, Nor any Saint on Earth, I own, Can here relieve me in Distress. To Thee I press, The Center of my Happiness. II. I feel the Load of Sin, and grieve My Guilt beyond Expression; Bur for thy Blood's sake, Lord, forgive My numberless Transgression; And, cloathed with thy Righteousness, Restore me to thy Father's Grace, To taste his condescending Love: Lord, still improve Thy Promise made me from above. III. A living Faith, O Lord, bestow On me thy feeble Creature, That I may taste and see and know The Sweetness of thy Nature, And love my God in Word and Thought, And ll my Neighbours as I ought; And when I leave this mortal Clay, Oh, chace away The Pow'rs of SATAN in that Day. IV. To our Almighty God above, The Father everlasting, To God made Man, his Son and Love, Whose Merit's never wasting, And to the HOLY GHOST be giv'n Immortal Praise in Earth and Heav'n: To Thee, the Holy God alone, Great Three in One, All Honour be for ever done.

Sure as I live, thy Maker saith

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #93 (1732) Lyrics: I. Sure as I live, thy Maker saith, I ne'er desire the Sinner's Death, But rather that he turn betimes From all his former Ways and Crimes, With true Repentance come to me, And live to all Eternity. II. O Man! let this Word comfort thee: Sink not, great as thy Sins may be: Lay hold on this free-offer'd Grace, That's here comfirm'd by Promises, Nay, seal'd with God's most solemn Oath, They're blest who their Transgressions loath. III. But hate presuming Carelessness; Think not, there's Time enough for Grace; I'll first partake of youthful Mirth, Till I'm convinc'd, how vain's the Earth' Then shall my serious Thoughts begin To seek Forgiveness for my Sin. IV. True, God is ready with his Grace Repenting Sinners to embrace; Yet, who runs up his Sinful Score On Grace, till he can sin no more, May find, to his amazing cost, Long suff'ring Mercy wholly lost. V. Mercy thy God has promis'd thee, For CHRIST his Blood and Agony; Yet in his Word did never say, That thou shou'dst live another Day: That thou must die, he has reveal'd; But th' Hour of Death lies still conceal'd. VI. To Day thou liv'st; To Day repent, Lest all thy Life shou'd be mispent: Who's brisk to Day; looks fair and red; May lie to morrow sick and dead: Who dies in his Impenitence, Will ever curse his Negligence. VII. O blessed JESU! grant I may Return to Thee this very Day, And live in constant Penitence, Till Death repears to call me hence, That I, in ev'ry Time and Place, Be well prepar'd to end my Race.

Shew Pity LORD! O LORD, forgive!

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #95 (1732) Lyrics: I. Shew Pity, LORD! O LORD, forgive! Is not thy Mercy still the same? Let a repenting Sinner live: Pardon his Guilt who owns his Shame. If Thou thy Judgments should'st display; I die; and Righteous is thy Name. But, O my God, thy Judgments stay; For I confess my Sin and Shame. II. I from the Stock of ADAM came; And my Conception was unclean; My whole Original is Shame; My Nature Nothing else but Sin. No bleeding bird, nor bleeding Beast, Nor running Brook, nor Flood, nor Sea, Nor Hyssop-Branch, nor sprinkling Priest, Can wash my native Stain away. III. O, cleanse my Heart, and chear my Soul; O, chear me with Forgiving Love; And make my broken Spirit whole; And all my Sin and Shame remove. Let not thy Spirit quite depart; Hide not thy Love: hide not thy Face. O, cleanse again my vicious Heart, Ad fill it with thy saving Grace. IV. The Wicked will I teach thy Ways; And to confess their Saviour bring; And shew the Wonders of thy Grace; And teach 'em all thy Praise to sing. O, Gracious God! my Heart inspire With ev'ry Movement of thy Grace; And touch my Tongue with hallow'd Fire, To praise the Lord my Righteousness. V. No Sacrifice dost Thou require, Besides a Heart that's broke for Sin; I bring it then, at thy Desire; And it is All that I can bring. Thy own JERUSALEM rebuild; And raise her broken Walls again; And be she with thy Glory fill'd, To joy all Those that love thy Name.

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #97 (1732) Lyrics: I. Out of the Deeps of dark Distress, The Deeps of Desperation, I cry to Thee, my God, for Grace, For Love and for Salvation.

Ye Sons of ISRAEL, wait the Day; Wait till th' Almighty shall display His Mercy and his Blessing. V. On's Mercy-Seat he issues out, For Sins, on Sins, Remission: There All's forgiven and forgot; For CHRIST makes Intercession. He turns our Feet from sinful Ways. Oh, endless is his Love and Praise. By Him is ISRAEL saved. Topics: Repentance Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English Tune Title: [Out of the Deeps of dark Distress]

Our whole Salvation doth depend

Hymnal: PGTG1756 #100 (1732) Lyrics: I. Our whole Salvation doth depend On God's free Grace and Spirit; all our good Works can ne'er defend A Boast upon our Merit Derived is our Righteousness From Christ and his attoning Grace; He is our Mediator. II. What God commanded in the Law Was far beyond our Doing: There sinful Nature Nothing saw But hopeless Death and Ruin. The fiery Mount spreads black Despair: There's no Reprieve nor Pardon there For us Apostate-Wretches. III. Who can maintain the bold Conceit, That poor Mankind was able T'observe by Means of Nat'ral Light, The first and second Table? The LAW reveals the Root of Sin, Which lay before conceal'd within, With all its hellish Branches. IV. No! t'was beyond all human Art To purge that deep Pollution; All Means to move the poison'd Dart Confirm'd the foul Difusion. The Lord a feigned Work abhors; Mere Flesh increases but the Curse Of our intail'd Corruption. V. The LAW cried, Justice must be done, Or Men doom'd to Damnation: But Mercy sent th'eternal Son, Who purchas'd our Salvation, Fulfill'd the LAW in its Extent, And gave its Wrath a thorough Vent, To pass the Sons of ADAM. VI. Thus having all the LAW fulfill'd Through CHRIST'S blest Cross and Passion, He's now the Rock, whereon we build Our Faith and whole Salvation. We call him Lord, our Righteousness, Whose Death has purchas'd Life and Grace, And ransom'd us for ever. VII. My Faith avoids all Doubt and Fear; Thy Word can ne'er deceive me; Thou say'st no Sinner shall despair, None perish who believes Thee. Who rests on God, and is baptiz'd, Is surely the Redeem'd by CHRIST, And 'scapes eternal Torment. VIII. The Man that bears the Faith that shines In Works of christian Merit, Is justified, and bears the Signs Of a confessing Spirit. A living Faith's what God regards, His Love doth Good without Rewards. Art thou new born in Spirit? IX. The LAW reveals sins Sinfulness. Inhancing th' Accusation, The Gospel tenders saving Grace For Sinners Consolation; Bids all lay hold on JESU"S Cross; The LAW could ne'er retrieve our Loss, With all its best Performance. X. True genuine Gospel-Works denote A Faith of God's inspiring. That Faith is vain, which is remote And from Good Works retiring. Yet Faith alone's what justifies, The Love t'our Neighbour well implies, We are sincere Believers. XI. The living Hope with Patience waits God's promis'd Consolation, Takes all the Turns of Ease and Streights With Christian Resignation. God knows the Time for our Relief, T'asswage our greatest Pain and Grief, In him we have Affiance. XII. Be not cast down, when he delays To crown thine Expectation; He then is nearest, when thy Ways Seem full of Desolation; On his eternal Word rely, E'en tho' thy war'ving Heart deny, And trust in thy Redeemer. XIII. To Father, Son and Holy Ghost Immortal Praise be given; Whose Passion to restore Men lost Is all the Song of heaven. May JEWS and all the Gentile-Race Soon call Thee Lord their Righteousness: Thy Name be ever ahllow'd. XIV. Thy Kingdom come, thy Will be done As 'tis by Saints in Glory; With daily Bread our Tables crown; Forgive our Sins before Thee, As we forgive our Debtors here: Let no Temptation breed Despair: From Ill redeem us, Amen.

According to thy sacred Word, A blessed Amen us afford. Topics: Lord's Prayer Languages: English Tune Title: [Our Father, who from Heav'n above]
