Ye nations, who on earth do dwell

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #X (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye nations, who on earth do dwell, Hear what the Saviour doth fore-tell! Great signs and wonders there shall be; Distress and great perplexity. 2 Darkness shall hide the glorious Sun, And blackness shall obscure the Moon! Yea, every star will cease to shine, And all their glitt'ring rays decline. 3 The hearts of men shall fail with fear, Waiting for things that shall appear: The seas with great convulsion roar, The heavens shake with all her pow'r. 4 Then shall the mighty Saviour come In glory power and wisdom; Ye faithful then look up on high, And see your great redemption nigh. 5 Notice the Saviour's Parable, Behold the fig-tree shews full well: When she puts forth her tender bough, The summer then is near ye know. 6 Thus when these noted signs ye see With all the Saviour's words agree, Then may ye fully understand: The Saviour's kingdom is at hand. 7 Dear Lord, prepare us for the day, May we be wise to watch and pray! Prepare us Lord, to stand the test, And share the blessing with the bless'd. Topics: Second Sunday in Advent For the Gospel Scripture: Luke 21:25-36 Languages: English

Ye servants of th' almighty King

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #P.CXIII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye servants of th'almighty King, In ev'ry age his praises sing; Where'er the sun shall rise or set, The nations shall his praise repeat. 2 Above the earth, beyond the sky, His throne of Glory stands on high; Nor time nor place his power restrain, Nor bound his universal reign. 3 Which of the sons of Adam dare, Or angels with their God compare? His glories how divinely bright, Who dwells in uncreated light. 4 Behold his love; he stoops to view What saints above and angels do; And condescends yet more to know The mean affairs of men below. 5 From dust and cottages obscure His grace exalts the humble poor! Gives them the honour of his sons, And fits them for their heav'nly thrones. 6 [A word of his creating voice Can make the barren house rejoice; Tho' Sarah's ninety years were past, The promis'd seed is born at last. 7 With joy the mother views her son, And tells the wonders God has done: Faith may grow strong when sense despairs: If nature fails, the promise bears.] Topics: God sovereign and gracious Scripture: Psalm 113 Languages: English

Ye sons of men, a feeble race

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #P.XCI.II (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 11 Ye sons of men, a feeble race, Expos'd to ev'ry snare, Come make the Lord your dwelling place, And try and trust his care. 12 No ill shall enter where you dwell; Or if the plague come nigh, And sweep the wicked down to hell, 'Twill raise the saints on high. 13 He'll give his angels charge to keep Your feet in all their ways; To watch your pillow while you sleep, And guard your happy days. 14 Their hands shall bear you lest you fall And dash against the stones; Are they not servants at his call, And sent t'attend his sons? 15 Adders and lions ye shall tread; The tempter's wiles defeat" He that hath bruis'd the serpent's head Puts him beneath your feet. 16 "Because on me they set their love, I'll save them saith the Lord: I'll bear their joyful souls above, Destruction and the sword. 17 My grace shall answer when they call, In trouble I'll be nigh; My pow'r shall help them when they fall, And raise them when they die. 18 Those that on earth my name have known, I'll honour them in heav'n; There my salvation shall be shown, And endless life be giv'n."

Ye sons of men, come one and all!

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #C (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Ye sons of men, come one and all! Come to the Gospel feast; Obey your blessed Saviours call: O come and be his guest! 2 We bear his message unto you, Commission'd by the Lord-- His promises, come prove them true, And trust unto his word. 3 All things for you are ready now, And precious is the treat! And all you need he will bestow, To make your joys complete. 4 We pray that you may all draw near, And to the call attend; They who refuse our call to hear, Cannot be Jesus' friend. 5 Nothing pertaining to this life, Should cause you to delay-- Not Land or Oxen, or a wife, Keep you from Christ away. 6 Be ye not like the stubborn Jews, Who all his calls disdain'd! Because they did his grace refuse! His curse on them remain'd. 7 He calleth not the Jews alone, But all who will receive; Come poor and needy, ev'ry one Come ye to him and live. 8 But some ye, mow make no delay! O come with speed and haste: Lest he should in displeasure say-- My feast ye shall not taste. Topics: Second Sunday after Trinity Scripture: Luke 14:16-24 Languages: English

Ye who profess the Lord to love

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #LVIII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye who profess the Lord to love, Let all your lives and actions prove, With pure desires and ardent zeal, Attach'd to Christ to do his will. 2 Walk ye in love as christians ought, Remember ye are dearly bought, And ransom'd with the greatest price, When Jesus died our sacrifice. 3 A sacrifice of sweetest smell As pleas'd the righteous father well, When his dear precious blood was spilt, It then atton'd for all our guilt. 4 Amazing love beyond degree! No great love could ever be, O christians take this love in view! And learn what sovereign love can do. 5 This love renews the soul within, And makes the mind avers'd to sin; All works of darkness are denied Reprov'd, condemn'd and mortified.

Ye who profess to love the Lord

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #CCLXXXIV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Ye who profess to love the Lord, Be wise to watch and pray: Remember, Satan stands prepar'd To steal your minds away. 2 O see that ye live circumspect! And not as the unwise; Your chief concerns do not neglect, Lest Satan gain your prize. 3 O watch ye unto constant pray'r, Be fervently employ'd: Ye are in danger ev'ry where To have your peace destroy'd. 4 The tempter tries a thousand ways, To take you of the path; Ye need to pray for saving grace, And true and living faith. 5 The world is evermore engag'd, Your fancies to allure! And Satan sometimes is enrag'd To execute his pow'r. 6 Then let us watch, and pray and strive, To walk the narrow road; And seek to keep our souls alive To serve the living God.

Ye wretched sons of men draw near

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #LXVII (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye wretched sons of men draw near, The cries and groans of Jesus hear; Come see the blessed lamb of God, There shedding of his precious Blood, 2 Behold him wounded scourg'd & bruis'd Mock'd, and slander'd, and abus'd; O hear his cries upon the tree: Why hath my God forsaken me! 3 His pain, his anguish, and distress, No heart can feel, no tongue express; When all the powers of Hell broke in, And Christ bore all the weight of sin. 4 When Jesus to the Cross was nail'd, The Sun was all in darkness vail'd; The Rocks were rent when Jesus cried! The earth was shaken when he died. 5 The heavens their black curtains drew, Such mournful scenes they could not view; It was too much for human eye, To see the King of Glory die. 6 How dark and awful was the day, When Jesus died to take away; Our curse and punishment and pain, For which he died and rose again.

Zion receive thy glorious king!

Hymnal: CHBC1816 #LXIII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Zion receive thy glorious king! Behold, he comes to thee: Thy songs of thanks andpraises sing; He comes to set thee free. 2 Behold he comes from heav'n above, To thee He doth decend; He comes with pitty, grace and love, As brother, lord and friend. 3 Yes, true! he comes in meanest state, To dwell a while below; And yet the work is wond'rous great For him on earth to do. 4 He comes to save all Adam's race, By shedding of his blood; And thereby makes them heirs of grace, And also sons of God. 5 His grace divine, and spirits aid, Tho' we are prone to ill-- Can soon effect the change we need To sanctify our will. 6 And thus it is that we receive The Saviour in our heart; Then we desire with him to live And ne'er with him to part.
