'Twas well, my soul, he died for thee, And shed his vital blood; Appeased stern justice on the tree, And then arose to God. Petitions now, and praise may rise, And saints their off'rings bring; The Priest, with his own sacrifice, Presents them to the King. [Let papists trust what names they please, Their saints and angels boast; We've no such advocates as these, Nor pray to th' heav'nly host.] Jesus alone shall bear my cries Up to his Father's throne; He, dearest Lord! perfumes my sighs, And sweetens every groan. [Ten thousand praises to the King, "Hosannah in the highest!" Ten thousand thanks our spirits bring To God and to his Christ.] Scripture: Psalm 17 Languages: English

When envy, strife, and wars begin In little angry souls, Mark how the sons of peace come in, And quench the kindling coals. Their minds are humble, mild, and meek, Nor let their fury rise; Nor passion moves their lips to speak, Nor pride exalts their eyes. Their frame is prudence mixed with love, Good works fulfil their day; They join the serpent with the dove, But cast the sting away. Such was the Savior of mankind, Such pleasures he pursued; His flesh and blood were all refined, His soul divinely good. Lord, can these plants of virtue grow In such a heart as mine? Thy grace my nature can renew, And make my soul like thine. Scripture: Matthew 10:16 Languages: English
