Chrstians endangered by the cares of the world

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Luke 10:38-42 First Line: Bless'd Martha love and joy express'd Lyrics: 1 Bless'd Martha love and joy express'd, To entertain her heav'nly guest; While Mary, ravish'd with her Lord, Sat at his feet, and heard his word. 2 True love divine, in both the same, Let each to glorify his name; Each met her Lord with joyful heart, "But Mary chose the better part." 3 While one prepar'd her earthly bread, The other wanted to be fed; One toil'd with care to spread a feast, The other lean'd on Jesu's breast. 4 Both met the favor of their Lord, His grace for each prepar'd a word; While Mary drank full draughts of love, Grace, careful Martha, did reprove. 5 Thus Christians with the world are vex'd, Oft are encumber'd and perplex'd; Vain tribes so engross their thought, The one thing needful is forgot. 6 Teach us, dear Lord, that part to choose, Which through thy grace we ne'er shall lose; Then could we call the world our own, We'd leave it all to see thy throne.

The duty first on us enjoin'd

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Luke 10:23-37 Lyrics: 1 The duty first on us enjoin'd, That is to love the Lord: With all our hearts, and all our mind, And all we can afford. 2 The next command is full as great, To love our neighbours too-- Of like importance, and of weight, As all the scriptures shew. 3 If we love God with all our heart; Then sure it must succeed; We ne'er neglect to act our part, To those who are in need. 4 All acts of mercy God respects! Far more than sacrifice; For such are they which he directs: And ever highly prize. 5 That soul can never be impress'd, With love and grace divine; Who will not feel for the distress'd, To bear them on their mind. 6 Where words and actions don't agree, Profession is in vain. For love to God there cannot be, Where there is none to men. 7 All such religion is but mock, A tree without a root: Where it consists of only talk, And not of genuine fruit.
