Blessings of the Gospel

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CL (1791) Topics: Blessedness of the Gospel First Line: Let ev'ry Mortal Ear attend Lyrics: 1 Let ev'ry Mortal Ear attend, And ev'ry Heart rejoice, The Trumpet of the Gospel Sounds, With an inviting Voice. 2 Come all ye hungry starving Souls. That feed upon the Wind, And vainly strive, with earthly Toys To fill an empty Mind. 3 Eternal Wisdom has prepar'd A Soul-reviving Feast; And bids your longing Appetites The rich Provision taste. 4 Ho! ye that pant for living Streams, And pine away and die; here you may quench your raging Thirst With Springs that never dry. 5 Rivers of Love and Mercy here In a rich Ocean join; Salvation in abundance flows, Like Floods of Milk and Wine. 6 Dear God! the Treasures of thy Love Are everlasting Mines; Deep as our helpless Mis'ries are, And boundless as our Sins. 7 The happy Gates of Gospel Grace Stand open Night and Day; Lord, we are come to seek Supplies, And drive our Wants away.

Lord, thou hast planted me a Vine

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CLXIX (1791) Topics: Blessedness of the Gospel Lyrics: 1 Lord, thou hast planted me a Vine In fertile Soil and Air: Now tend and water me as thine, And make me still thy Care. 2 My Christ I'm wholly thine, direct My Goings, for I'm dark; O may my constant Aims be right! Thine Honour be my mark! 3 Shall Simon bear thy Cross alone, And other Saints be free? Each Saint of thine shall find his Own, And there is One for me: 4 Whene'er it falls unto my Lot, Let it not frighten me; Nor drive me from my gracious GOD, But bring me home to thee. 5 O happy Christians, be not loth To have a courser Fare; Saints that have had no Table-Cloth Had Christ at Dinner there. 6 To do or suffer I am pleas'd, So long as Christ stands by; Support me with thy constant Aid, Lest all thy Graces die. 7 Thy Way is to the Upright Strength; Lord, make it so to me, That never tiring with the Length, My soul may reach to thee.

Saw ye not the Cloud arise

Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCLII (1791) Topics: Blessedness of the Gospel Lyrics: 1 Saw ye not the Cloud arise, Little as an Human Hand? Now it spreads along the Skies, Hangs o'er all the thirsty Land, Lo! the Promise of a Flow'r Drops already from above, But the Lord shall shortly pour All the spirit of his Love. 2 Sons of God your Saviour praise, He a Door hath open'd wide He hath giv'n the word of Grace, Jesu's Word is glorify'd: Jesu's mighty to redeem, He alone the Work hath wrought, Worthy is the Work of him, Who all Things to Being brought. 3 When he first the Work begun Small and feeble was his Day, Now the Word doth sweeftly run, Now it spreads its glorious Way; More and more it shines and grows, Ever mighty to prevail; Sins's strong Holds it now o'erthrows, Shakes the trembling Gates of Hell.

Open mine Eyes to read thy Word, And see thy Wonders there. 2 My Heart was fashion'd by thy Hand, My Service is thy Due; O make thy Servant understand The Duties he must do. 3 Since I'm a Stranger here below, Let not thy Path be hid; But mark the Road my Feet should go, And be my constant Guide 4 When I confess'd my wand'ring Ways, Thou heard'st my Soul complain; Grant me the teachings of thy Grace, Or I shall stray again. 5 If God to me his Statutes shew, And heav'nly Truths impart, His Work for Ever I'll pursue, His Law shall rule my Heart. 6 This was my Comfort when I bore Variety of Grief; It made me learn thy Word the more, And fly to that relief. [7 In vain the Proud deride me now; I'll ne'er forget thy Law, Nor let that blessed Gospel go, Whence all my Hopes I draw. 8 When I have learn'd my Father's Will, I'll teach the World his Ways; My thankful Lips, inspir'd with Zeal, Shall loud pronounce his Praise.] Languages: English
