By self and Satan taught to paint HYMN 66. (C. M.) 1 THE men who slight thy faithful word, In their own lies confide: These are the temple of the Lord, 2 The temple of the Lord are these, Who live in pomp, and wealth, and ease, 3 O wou'dst thou, Lord, reveal their sins! And turn their joy to grief! The world, the christian world, convince 4 The formalist confound, convert, 1 And break, and fill the broken heart, With confidence divine! C HYMN 67. (P. M.) Acknowledging God. OMFORT, ye ministers of grace, Ye soon shall see his smiling face, His golden sceptre, not his rod; And own when now the cloud's remov'd, 2 Who sow in tears, in joy shall reap; With joy they doubtless shall return; 'L HYMN 68. (C. M.) ONG have I seem'd to serve thee, Lord, Fasted, and pray'd, and read thy word, 2 Oft did I with th' assembly join, The power 3 I rested in the outward law; 4 To please thee thus, at length I see, 5 I see the perfect law requires Our full consent, oùr whole desires, But I of means have made my boast, Of means an idol made! The spirit in the letter lost, HYMN 69. (C. M.) Desires. FOR a heart to praise my God, A heart that always feels thy blood, 2 A heart, resign'd, submissive, meek, 3 O for a lowly, contrite heart, Which neither life nor death can part 4 A heart in every thought renew'd, Perfect, and right, and pure, and good, 5 Thy tender heart, is still the same, 6 Thy nature, gracious Lord, impart, Write thy new name upon my heart, 1 TALK HYMN 70. (C. M.) Desires. ALK with us, Lord, thyself reveal, 2 With thee conversing, we forget 3 Here then, my God, vouchsafe to stay, And bid my heart rejoice; My bounding heart shall own thy sway, 4. Thou callest me to seek thy face; To' attend the whispers of thy grace, 5 Let this my ev'ry hour employ, Enter into my Master's joy, And find my heaven in thee. HYMN 71. (C. M.) Describing. 1 TERRIBLE thought! shall I alone, Who may be sav'd-shall I Of all, alas! whom I have known, 2 While all my old companions dear, 4 Ah! no: I still may turn and live; 5 I will accept his offers know, 6 I will improve what I receive, HYMN 72, (All 10s.) Goodness. 1 1 THY faithfulness, Lord, each moment we find, grace. So true to thy word, so loving and kind! |
