Canaan lost thro' Unbelief; or, a Warning to delaying Sinners

Hymnal: DWIP1785 #XCVc (1785) First Line: Come let our voices join to raise Lyrics: 1 Come let our voices join to raise A sacred song of solemn praise: GOD is a sovereign King; rehearse His honour in exalted verse. 2 Come, let our souls address the Lord, Who fram'd our natures with his word, He is our shepherd; we the sheep His mercy chose, his pastures keep. 3 Come, let us hear his voice to-day, The counsels of his love obey, Nor let our harden'd hearts renew The sins and plagues that Israel knew. 4 Israel, that saw his works of grace Yet tempt their Maker to his face; A faithless unbelieving brood, That tir'd the patience of their GOD. 5 Thus saith the Lord, "How false they prove! "Forget my power, abuse my love; "Since they despise my rest, I swear, "Their feet shall never enter there." 6 [Look back, my soul, with holy dread, And view those antient rebels dead; Attend the offer'd grace to day, Nor lose the blessings by delay. 7 Seize the kind promise while it waits, And march to Zion’s heavenly gates; Believe, and take the promis'd rest; Obey, and be forever blest.] Scripture: Psalm 95:1-3 Languages: English

Our Saviour present at his Table

Hymnal: DWIP1785 #H.LXIII (1785) First Line: Come, let us join the sacred song Lyrics: 1 Come let us join the sacred song To our ascended Lord; Ye saints and angels round the throne, And we around his board. 2 Tho' rais'd beyond the worlds of light, His brighter glories shine, Where purer souls enjoy the light And presence more divine. 3 Yet here, unseen by mortal eyes, The boundless God resides, Renews the atoning sacrifice And o'er the feast presides. 4 Let every hand that shares the food And every heart with fear, Feel the full presence of the God, That spreads his bounties here. 5 But Oh, the love, the wondrous love The bleeding Lord displays, Shall earth's united songs improve, And heaven's eternal praise.

Benefit of Afflictions, and Support under them

Hymnal: DWIP1785 #CXIXn (1785) First Line: Consider all my sorrows, Lord Lyrics: 1 Consider all my sorrows, Lord, And thy deliverance send; My soul for thy salvation faints, When will my troubles end? 2 Yet I have found 'tis good for me To bear my Father's rod; Afflictions make me learn thy law, And live upon my GOD. 3 This is the comfort I enjoy When new distress begins: I read thy word, I run thy way, And hate my former sins. 4 Had not thy word been my delight When earthly joys were fled, My soul, opprest with sorrow's weight Had sunk amongst the dead. 5 I know thy judgments, Lord, are right, Though they may seem severe; The sharpest sufferings I endure Flow from thy faithful care. 6 Before I knew thy chastening rod My feet were apt to stray; But now I learn to keep thy word, Nor wander from thy way.

Lord, thou hast rais'd his kingdom high, And given the world to his command. 3 Thy goodness grants whate'er he will, Nor doth the least request with-hold: Blessings of love prevent him still, And crowns of glory, not of gold. 4 Honour and majesty divine Around his sacred temples shine: Blest with the favour of thy face, And length of everlasting days. 5 Thine hand shall find out all his foes; And as a firey oven glows With raging heat and living coals, So shall thy wrath devour their souls.
