Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CLXIII (1791) Topics: Christian Consolation Lyrics: 1 Lord, I am thine; but thou wilt prove
My Faith, my Patience, and my Love:
When Men of Spight against me join,
They are the Sword, the Hand is thine.
2 their Hope and Portion lies below:
'Tis all the Happiness they know,
'Tis all they seek; they take their Shares,
And leave the rest among their Heirs.
3 What Sinners Value, I resign;
LORD, 'tis enough that thou art mine:
I shall behold thy blissful Face,
And stand complete in Righteousness.
4 This Life's a Dream, an empty Show;
But the bright World to which I go
Hath Joys substantial and sincere:
When shall I wake and find me there!
5 O Glorious Hour! O blest Abode!
I shall be near and like my God!
And Flesh and Sin no more controul
The sacred Pleasures of the Soul.
6 My Flesh shall slumber in the Ground
'Till the last Trumpet's joyful Sound;
Then burst the Chains with sweet Surprize
And in my SAVIOUR's image rise. Scripture: Titus 3:3-7 Languages: English

The Presence of GOD worth dying for
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CLXXI (1791) Topics: Christian Consolation First Line: Lord, 'tis an infinite Delight Lyrics: 1 Lord, 'tis an infinite Delight
To see thy lovely Face,
To dwell whole Ages in thy Sight,
And feel thy vital Rays.
2 This Gabriel knows; and sings thy Name
With Raptures on his Tongue;
Moses the Saint enjoys the same,
And Heav'n repeats the Song.
3 While the bright Nation Sounds thy Praise
From each Eternal Hill,
Sweet Odours of exhaling Grace
The happy Region fill.
4 Thy love, a Sea without a Shore,
Spreads Life and Joy abroad;
O 'tis a Heav'n worth dying for
To see a smiling GOD.
3 Show me thy Face, and I'll away
From all inferior Things;
Speak, LORD, and here I quit my Clay,
And stretch my airy wings.
6 Sweet was the Journey to the Sky
And wondrous Prophet try'd;
"Climb up the Mount (says GOD) and die;"
The Prophet climb'd and dy'd.
7 Softly his fainting Head he lay
Upon his Maker's Breast;
His Maker kiss'd his Soul away,
And laid his Flesh to rest.
8 In GOD's own Arms he left the Breath
That GOD"S own Spirit gave;
His was the noblest Road to Death,
And his the sweetest Grave. Languages: English

Mercy comes to the Miserable
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CLXXVIII (1791) Topics: Christian Consolation First Line: Mercy is welcome News indeed Lyrics: 1 Mercy is welcome News indeed,
To those that guilty stand:
Wretches that feel what Help they need,
Will bless the helping Hand.
2 Who rightly would his Alms dispose,
Must give them to the Poor:
None but the wounded Patient knows
That Comfort of his Cure.
3 We all have sinn'd against our GOD:
Exception none can boast:
But he that feels the heaviest Load,
Will prize Forgiveness most.
4 No Reck'ning can we rightly keep;
For who the Sums can know?
Some Souls are fifty Pieces deep;
And some Five Hundred owe.
5 But let out Debts be what they may,
However great, or small;
As soon as we have nought to pay,
Our LORD forgives us all.
6 'Tis perfect Poverty alone,
That sets the Soul at large;
While we can call one Mite our own,
We have no full Discharge.

Heaven invisible and Holy
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CLXXXIX (1791) Topics: Christian Consolation First Line: Nor Eye has seen, nor Ear has heard Lyrics: 1 Nor Eye has seen, nor Ear has heard,
Nor Sense nor Reason known,
What Joys the Father hath prepar'd
For those that Love the Son.
2 But the good Spirit of the Lord
Reveals A Heav'n to come:
The Beams of Glory in his Word
Allure and guide us home.
3 Pure are the Joys above the Sky,
And all the Region Peace;
No wanton Lips, nor envious Eye
Can see or taste the Bliss.
4 Those holy Gates for ever bar
Pollution, Sin, and Shame;
None shall obtain Admittance there,
But Foll'wers of the Lamb.
5 He keeps the Father's Book of Life,
There all their Names are found;
The Hypocrite in vain shall strive
To tread the heav'nly Ground. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:9-10 Languages: English

The Church, the Garden of Christ
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCCIV (1791) Topics: Christian Consolation First Line: We are a Garden wall'd around Lyrics: 1 We are a Garden wall'd around,
Chosen and made peculiar Ground;
A little Spot, enclos'd by Grace
Out of the World's wide Wilderness.
2 Like Trees of Myrrh and Spice we stand,
Planted by God the Father's Hand;
And all his Springs in Sion flow,
To make the young Plantation grow.
3 Awake, O, heav'nly Wind, and come,
Blow on this Garden of Perfume;
Spirit Divine! descend and breathe
A gracious Gale on Plants beneath.
4 Make our best Spices flow abroad,
To entertain our Saviour God;
And Faith, and Love, and Joy appear,
And ev'ry Grace be active here.
[5 Let my Beloved come and taste
His pleasant Fruits at his own Feast;
I come, my Spouse, I come, he cries,
With Love and Pleasure in his Eyes.
6 Our Lord into his Garden comes,
Well pleas'd to smell our poor Perfumes,
And calls us to a Feast Divine,
Sweeter than Honey, Milk, or Wine.
7 Eat of the Tree of Life, my Friends,
The Blessings that my Father sends;
Your Taste shall all my Dainties prove,
And drink abundance of my Love.
8 Jesus, we will frequent thy Board,
And sing the Bounties of our Lord;
But the rich Food on which we live
Demands more Praise than Tongues can give.] Scripture: Song of Solomon 4:12-15 Languages: English
