Hymn 31 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 93 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:3 First Line: O happy soul that lives on high Lyrics: O happy soul that lives on high While men lie grov'lling here His hopes are fixed above the sky, And faith forbids his fear. His conscience knows no secret stings, While peace and joy combine To form a life whose holy springs Are hidden and divine. He waits in secret on his God, His God in secret sees; Let earth be all in arms abroad, He dwells in heav'nly peace. His pleasures rise from things unseen, Beyond this world and time; Where neither eyes nor ears have been, Nor thoughts of sinners climb. He wants no pomp nor royal throne To raise his figure here; Content and pleased to live unknown, Till Christ, his life, appear. He looks to heav'n's eternal hill To meet that glorious day; But patient waits his Savior's will To fetch his soul away.

Author: Dr. Doddridge Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 62 hymnals Scripture: Colossians 3:1 First Line: Attend, ye children of your God Lyrics: 1 Attend, ye children of your God Ye heirs of glory hear; Let accents so divine as these, Might charm the dullest ear. 2 Baptiz'd into your Savior's death, Your souls to sin must die; With Christ your Lord, ye live anew, With Christ ascend on high. 3 There by his father's side he sits Enthron'd divinely far; Yet owns himself your brother still, And your forerunner there. 4 Rise from these earthly trifles, rise On wings of faith and love; Above your choicest treasure lies, And be your hearts above. 5 But earth and sin will drag us down, When we attempt to fly; Lord, send thy strong attractive power To raise and fix us high.

Refrain: I’m hid away, yes, hid away, I’m hid with Christ in God; I’m dead to sin, alive in Christ, I’m washed in His blood. 2 The narrow way is now so plain, I’m hid away with Jesus; That fools shall never err therein, I’m hid away with Jesus; The gate that’s strait is just before, Which when we reach we’ll sigh no more, Our sorrows then will all be o’er, I’m hid away with Jesus. [Refrain] 3 Oh, brother dear, to keep good cheer, Be hid away with Jesus; For then you’ll find your Savior near, Keep hid away with Jesus; We’re basking now in heaven’s light, By faith and prayer our way shines bright, We get so near that heav’n’s in sight, When hid away with Jesus. [Refrain] 4 Oh, sinner turn to God and live, Be hid away with Jesus; A crown of life to you He’ll give, When hid away with Jesus; Repent, believe, and love Him too, For He has done so much for you, He’ll wash and cleanse you through and through, Be hid away with Jesus.
