My Soul, with grateful Thoughts of Love

Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116 Lyrics: 1 My Soul, with grateful Thoughts of Love entirely is possest Because the Lord vouchsaf'd to hear the Voice of my Request. 2 Since He has now his Ear inclin'd, I never will despair; But still in all the Straits of Life to Him address my Pray'r. 3 With deadly Sorrows compass'd round, with Pains of hell oppress'd; When Troubles seiz'd my aking Heart, and Anguish rack'd my Breast: 4 On God's almighty Name I call'd, and thus to Him I pray'd; "Lord, I beseech Thee, save my Soul, "with Sorrows quite dismay'd; 5,6 How just and merciful is God, how gracious is the Lord! Who saves the Harmless, and to me does timely Help afford. 7 Then free from pensive Cares, my Soul resume thy wonted Rest; For God has wond'rously to thee his bounteous Love exprest. 8 When Death alarm'd me, He remov'd my Dangers and my Fears; My Feet from falling He secur'd, and dry'd my Eyes from Tears. 9 Therefore my Life's remaining Years, which God to me shall lend, Will I in Praise to his Name, and in his Service spend. 10,11 In God I trusted, and of Him in greatest Straits did boast; (For in my Flight all Hopes of Aid from faithless Men were lost:) 12,13 Then what Return to him shall I for all his Goodness make? I'll praise his Name, and with glad Zeal the Cup of Blessing take. 14,15 I'll pay my Vows amongst his Saints, whose Blood (how'er despis'd By wicked Men) in God's Account is always highly priz'd: 16 By various Ties, O Lord, must I to thy Dominion bow; Thy humble Handmaid's Son before, thy ransom'd Captive now! 17,18 To Thee I'll Off'rings bring of Praise; and whilst I bless thy Name, The just Performance of my Vows to all thy Saints proclaim. 19 They in Jerusalem shall meet, and in thy House shall join, To bless thy Name with one Consent, and mix their Songs with mine.

Most precious in our Saviour's Sight

Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116:15 Lyrics: 1 Most precious, in our Saviour's Sight, Are all his Saints unnotic'd Death! He bears them to eternal Light, When they resign their mortal Breath. 2 Precious the soul by him redeem'd; From threat'ning Evils snatch'd away, Precious their Dust, by him esteem'd, He'll raise it at the latter Day. 3 Free from this World's unnumber'd Cares, From Satan's Rage, and human Spite, From Sin's Distress, and gloomy Fears; How precious this in Jesu's Sight! 4 From all their Labours now they rest; Their weary Souls, with Joy and Peace, Leans on their faithful Abra'm's Breast, Where all the wicked Troublers cease. 5 All this, and more, our Brother proves; Now he the son of Man can see; He sees, he feels, he joys, he loves, And all from Intermission free. 6 No more, as darkly thro' a Glass, His Eye-sight purg'd by Jesu's Blood, Now clearly sees Immanuel's Face, The bright, uncluded Face of God! 7 Whilst here below, he knew, in part, That deep, that boundless, heav'nly Theme; The Pow'r of Jesu's Blood and Smart, Completely cleansing us in him. 8 Feeling his Heart and Flesh decay, He languished beneath thine Hand, In patient Longings for the Day, When he should see Immanuel's Land. 9 Now is the perfect Day his own; No darkning Vail remains between; He knows the Lord as he is known, And sees his Myst'ry as he's seen.
