How Vain, Great God

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8931 Meter: 8.8.6 D First Line: How vain, great God, and worse than vain Lyrics: 1 How vain, great God, and worse than vain, How sinful our pretended pain In this our evil day! Unless we to our Smiter turn, The cause of all our evils mourn, And cast our sins away. 2 ’Gainst vice we partially declaim, With undiscerning censure blame Our nation’s wickedness: But O! The sin that loudest cries For all the vengeance of the skies, We never once confess. 3 O might we from our hearts repent Of scorning Him Thy pity sent To heal our sin and grief! Assist us through Thy Spirit’s power, To own, and feelingly deplore Our damning unbelief. 4 Convince the wretches who deny Their Lord, that stooped for them to die, Who triumph in His pain, Who trample on His precious blood, And hate, and scoff the dying God, And crucify again. 5 Confound the misbelieving pride Of those that impiously divide Thy dearest Son and Thee, Who will not Him Thine equal own, But madly threaten to dethrone The filial Deity. 6 And O! Almighty Son of God, Into the blind self righteous crowd Thy sharpest arrows dart; The men who infidels condemn, Nor ever knew themselves the same, Mere infidels in heart. 7 A formal self deceiving race, Who mock the counsel of Thy grace, The sense of sins forgiven, The power of godliness explode, The witness, and the peace of God, And faith that leads to Heaven. 8 Forgive us, Lord, for such we were, And all our guilty brethren spare, Our unbelief reprove, Give us that root of sins to own, And make our wounded spirits groan Beneath their want of love. 9 Let all the faithless nation cry, Redeem us, Savior, or we die, A second death to feel: O Jesus, Thine only name and blood Can save us from the wrath of God, Can ransom us from hell. 10 On Thee our dying souls we cast, Our dying souls receive at last, And in Thy arms embrace, To triumph in Thy pardoning love, And sing with all the saved above Thine everlasting praise.

Righteous Lord, Thy People Spare

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8932 Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 First Line: Righteous Lord, Thy people spare! Lyrics: 1 Righteous Lord, Thy people spare! Lo! We turn at last to Thee, Humbly the correction bear Of our past iniquity, Own the cause of our distress, Mournfully our sins confess. 2 We Thy judgments have abhorred, We Thy covenant have broke, Daringly denied our Lord, Cast away His easy yoke, Would not cast our sins away, Would not know our gracious day. 3 Therefore is the plague begun, Therefore doth it still proceed, Wrath divine by means unknown, Wrath divine hath done the deed, Made the stalls and pastures void, God our cattle hath destroyed. 4 Heavier woes He keeps in store, If we still refuse to turn, Dare His anger’s utmost power, All His lingering pity scorn; But beneath Thy hand we bow, Stay Thy plague, and save us now. 5 Jesu, save us from our sins, Save us from our plague of heart; All of unbelief convince, All unto Thyself convert; Let our sin-sick spirits find Thee the healer of mankind. 6 No delight Thy goodness hath In the death of him who dies; Grant us then the living faith, Faith that on Thy blood relies, Faith that all Thy grace receives, Faith that all Thy fullness gives.

Righteous, O Lord, Are All Thy Ways!

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8933 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 D Lyrics: 1 Righteous, O Lord, are all Thy ways! Thy judgments in the ancient days On unrepenting sinners fell; Thy wrath descended, in a flood, On a whole world that knew not God, And swept their thoughtless souls to hell. Yet in the universal wreck, Thou didst a kind exception make, In favor of a child of Thine: Thou didst for him an ark provide, And safely with his household hide The heir of righteousness divine. 2 Thou art in every age the same, And when our crimes the vengeance claim, And when our measure is filled up; Thine anger yet again shall burn, And force them who Thy mercies spurn, To drink the bitter trembling cup. Thou, Lord, out of Thy place shalt rise, Open the windows of the skies, To plague the people of Thine ire, Thy flaming ministers employ, And terribly at last destroy, The wicked with a flood of fire. 3 Great God, if now Thy day is near, Alarm us with a sacred fear, And snatch from a devoted race, A world, who, as Thy Son foretold, Harden their hearts like those of old, And live corrupt in all their ways. They eat, they drink, they plant, they build, Their hearts, with cares and pleasures filled, No room can find for thoughts of Thee, Till the last dreadful plagues commence, And sweep their careless spirits hence Into a sad eternity. 4 But wilt Thou not Thine own secure? The men, who great distress endure, And cruel mockings for Thy sake, Who tremble at Thy tokens nigh, And to the ark of mercy fly, And Jesu’s wounds their refuge make! Surely Thou wilt Thy word fulfill, And give Thy cautioned people still, Within the sacred ark to rest; E’en now by faith we enter in, And mount above the floods of sin, Secure in our Redeemer’s breast. 5 Superior to the storms below, The various storms of human woe, Shut up in Christ we mount, we rise, Buoyed by His mighty Spirit up, Above the highest mountain’s top, Above the ruined earth, and skies. When earth and skies are all on fire, We then shall mount divinely higher, As by Elijah’s whirlwind driv’n, Triumphant o’er the blazing flood, The church, and family of God, Our ark and we shall rest in Heav’n.

Rise Every Soul In Jesus' Name

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8934 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Rise every soul in Jesus’ name Lyrics: 1 Rise every soul in Jesus’ name, Who after Him aspires; The wonders of His love proclaim, And praise Him in the fires. 2 Amidst impending plagues and woes, Extol His saving power: Earth hath not yawned on us to close, Or opened to devour. 3 Howe’er the wisdom of our God With us tomorrow deal, We were not yesterday destroyed, We now are out of hell. 4 Wherefore our lives shall show His praise, Long as our lives are giv’n, Or snatched from earth obtain a place Immoveable in Heav’n.

Lord Of Hosts, We Bow Before Thee

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8936 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Lord of hosts, we bow before Thee, The prophetic word receive, Now our prostrate souls adore Thee, Now we tremble, and believe: Thou the promised sign hast given— O that all might understand! "I will shake the earth and heaven; I will shake the sea and land." 2 Wars, and plagues, and great distresses, The tremendous day forerun; Earthquakes felt in divers places Show the latter times begun; Want and national confusion, Boding grief, and panic, fear, Mark the times of restitution, Speak the great Restorer near. 3 Never can Thy word be broken, Though the world shall pass away; Quickened by another token, Lord, we wait to see Thy day, Big with earnest expectation, Swells our heart to make Thee room, Come, desire of every nation, To Thy human temple come! 4 Bring the kingdom of Thy Spirit, Joy, and righteousness, and peace; Purchased by Thy dying merit, Every child of man possess; Come to us, who languish for Thee, Us, who long Thy face to see, Fill the latter house with glory, Then receive us up to Thee.

Ye Servants Of The Lord

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8937 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Ye servants of the Lord, In Jesu’s praises join, Who now confirms His word, And sends another sign, Sign of His day, and kingdom near: Look up, and see your Lord appear! 2 His coming He foreshows By famine, plague, and war, And epidemic woes His swift approach declare, Trembles the earth to find Him near: Look up, and see your Lord appear! 3 Hark how all nature groans In pangs of second birth! Expect, ye ransomed ones, A new created earth, The ruin of the old is near: Look up, and see your Lord appear! 4 His tokens we espy, And now lift up our head, And in the earthquake cry, It is my Savior’s tread! He comes to save His servants here: Look up, and see your Lord appear. 5 We do with joy look up, In national distress, With confidence of hope, To meet the Prince of Peace, We, unappalled in general fear, Look up, and see our Lord appear. 6 Our Lord appears again, His glorious power to show, He comes, He comes to reign, With all His saints below, Judgment is mercy’s harbinger; The earth is gone—and Christ is here!

The Sinners How Blest

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: CYBER #8938 Meter: 10.10.10.10 First Line: The sinners how blest who pardon receive! Lyrics: 1 The sinners how blest, who pardon receive! In trouble we rest, in dying we live, In danger secure, whom Jesus hath loved, Our footing is sure, though earth is removed. 2 The hairs of our head, are registered all, Not one, He hath said, shall perish, or fall, Without the permission of infinite grace, Whose blessèd decision we gladly embrace. 3 While thus we confide in Jesus’ blood, Whatever betide, shall turn to our good, When sorrows surround us, our joys shall increase, And earthquakes shall ground us in permanent peace. 5 Plague, famine, and war but quicken our hope, And bid us prepare, and bid us look up; Assured by each warning, His kingdom is near, The Lord is returning, and soon shall appear. 6 Appear in the skies, thou Savior of men, Our bodies shall rise to meet Thee again, Entombed in the center, we shall be restored, And gloriously enter the joy of our Lord.

Haste, for the reapers, alas! are so few, And in His service be true.

Trusting and praying, oh! make no delay, Forth to the harvest away! [Refrain] 3 Haste, oh! reapers, ere the daylight flies, Glean some sheaves eternal for the skies.

All who are faithful in serving the Lord, Surely obtain their reward. [Refrain] Languages: English Tune Title: [Rouse, oh! reapers, up and haste away]
