Author: D. Turner Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CXXXVII (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: Holy wonder, heav'nly grace Lyrics: 1 Holy wonder, heav'nly grace,
Come inspire our humble lays,
While the Savior's love we sing,
Whence our hopes and comforts spring.
2 Man, involv'd in guilt and woe,
Touch'd his tender bosom so,
That, when justice death demands,
Forth the great deliv'rer stands;
3 Cries to God, "Thy mercy shew,
Lo! I come thy will to do;
I the sacrifice will be,
Death shall plunge his dart in me."
4 Tho' the form of God he bore,
Great in glory, great in pow'r,
See him in our flesh array'd,
Lower than his Angels made.
5 He that Heav'n itself possess'd,
Now and infant at the breast!
Angels from the world above,
See and sing th' amazing love!
6 Thro' the shining hours of day,
Toil and danger mark his way;
Lonely mounts, and chilling air,
Witness oft his midnight prayer.
7 Now the heav'nly lover dies!
Darkness veils the mid day skies!
Angels round the bloody tree,
Throng and gaze in ecstacy!
8 Pow'r unseen earth's bosom heaves,
Rocks and tombs asunder cleave;
While the temple's rending veil
Tells the pries the awful tale.
9 But, the third day's dawning come,
Lo! the Saviour leaves the tomb!
Reascends his native sky,
Where he lives no more to die.
10 On his cross he builds his throne,
Whence he makes his glories known,
Sends his spirit down to give
Dying sinners, grace to live.

I'll praise my Maker while I've breath
In boundless mercy, gracious Lord appear
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns, from Various Authors, Supplementary for the Use of Christians. 1st ed. #LIII (1816) Meter: Irregular Lyrics: 1 In boundless mercy, gracious Lord, appear,
Darkness dispel, the humble mourner cheer;
Vain thoughts remove, melt down this flinty heart;
Cause ev'ry soul to choose the better part.
2 Thy presence fills the universal space;
Thy grace appears to all the fallen race;
O visit us with light and life divine,
Fill ev'ry souls for ev'ry soul is thine.
3 Thy blessed Jesus is my Lord, my love;
He is my King from him I would not move,
Away then all ye objects that divert,
Nor seek to draw from my dear Lord my heart.
4 That uncreated beauty which hath gain'd
My ravish'd heart, hath all your glory stain'd;
His loveliness my soul hath prepossess'd
And left no room for any guest. Languages: English
In boundless mercy, gracious Lord appear
Jesus Christ, the Redeemer
Author: John Relly Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCLVI (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: In mine own flesh I see Lyrics: 1 In mine own flesh I see
My dear Redeemer, God:
And in that body he
Redeem'd me by his blood:
Made one, no more to part again,
With him I ever shall remain.
2 Bone of his bone I am,
And evermore shall be;
One great immortal name
Is nam'd on him and me:
In him, complete, I now possess
The fulness of redeeming grace.
3 When from his pierced side
Came forth, in bleeding love,
His lov'd, his royal bride,
The life divine to prove;
To her this sacred truth he seal'd,
That all her maladies were heal'd.
4 What tho' I mortal am,
And shall to dust return:
In the prevailing Lamb
I unto God am born:
In him I live above all fear,
Nor sin, nor death, can reach me there.

Jesus Christ, the Redeemer
The Ceremonial Law points to Christ
Author: Cowper Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #X (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: Israel in ancient days Lyrics: 1 Israel in ancient days,
Not only had a view
Of Sinai in a blaze,
But learn'd the gospel too:
The types and figures were a glass,
In which they saw the Saviour's face.
2 The Paschal sacrifice
And blood-besprinkled door,
Seen with enlighten'd eyes,
And once apply'd with pow'r,
Would teach the need of other blood,
To reconcile an angry God.
3 The lamb, the dove, set forth
His perfect innocence,
Whose blood of matchless worth,
Should be the soul's defence;
For he who can for sin atone,
Must have no failings of his own.
4 The scape-goat on his head
The people's trespass bore,
And to the desert led,
Was to be seen no more:
In him our surety seem'd to say,
"Behold I bear your sins away."
5 Dipt in his fellow's blood,
The living bird went free;
The type well understood,
Express'd the sinners plea;
Describ'd a guilty soul enlarg'd,
And by a Saviour's death discharg'd.
6 Jesus, I love to trace
Throughout the sacred page;
The footsteps of thy grace,
The same in ev'ry age!
O grant that I may faithful be
To clearer light, vouchsaf'd to me. Topics: The Scriptures, Legal, Prophetic, and Evangelical, collectively testify of the Savior Scripture: Hebrews 10:1 Languages: English
The Ceremonial Law points to Christ
Christ, and him Crucified
Author: John Relly Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CXLVIII (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: Jesus and him crucified Lyrics: 1 Jesus, and him crucify'd,
Is mine, I want no more;
In his wounds I'm deep inlaid;
My name there standeth sure;
I am his, and he is mine;
My root is in the promis'd land;
I'm a branch of the true vine,
The plant of God's right hand.
2 In the Lamb, my fallow ground
Was plough'd with painful roil,
That which did with thorns abound
Is now a nobler soil:
Christ's the soil that's rich and good;
In him the lov'd plantation grows;
Water'd by his heav'nly blood,
Its merit always flows.

Christ, and him Crucified
Jesus, in the Garden of Gethsemane
Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CXLIV (1792) Meter: Irregular First Line: Jesus, bow'd down by mighty woe Lyrics: 1 Jesus, bow'd down by mighty woe,
Unfelt, unknown, to all below,
Except the Son of God;
In agonistic pangs of soul,
Drinks deep from wormwood's bitt'rest bowl,
And sweats great drops of blood.
2 See, his disciples slumb'ring round;
Nor pitying friend on earth is found;
He treads the press alone:
In vain to Heav'n he turns his eyes;
No pardon waits him from the skies;
His death it must atone.
3 "O Father hear! this cup remove—
Save thou the darling of thy love,
(The prostrate victim said)
Yet not my will, but thine be done,
Should that exted, to count thy Son,
Amid the sleeping dead."
4 His earnest prayers, his deep'ning groans,
Were heard before angelic thrones;
Amazement wrapt the sky.
"Go strengthen Christ," Jehovah said;
Th' astonish'd Seraph bow'd his head,
And left the realms on high.
5 Made strong in strength rene'd from heav'n,
Jesus receives the cup as giv'n;
Submiss, resign'd in all,
He drink;—nor leaves a dreg behind;
And bears away from human kind,
The wormwood mix'd with gall.
