How shall the young secure their hearts

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #76 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts, And guard their lives from sin? Thy Word the choicest rules imparts To keep the conscience clean. 2 'Tis, like the sun, a heavenly light, That guides us all the day; And through the dangers of the night A lamp to lead our way. 3 The starry heavens Thy rule obey, The earth maintains her place; And these Thy servants, night and day, Thy skill and power express. 4 But still Thy Law and Gospel, Lord, Have lessons more divine; Not earth stands firmer than Thy Word, Nor stars so nobly shine. 5 Thy Word is everlasting truth: How pure is every page! That holy Book shall guide our youth, And well support our age. Topics: Holy Ghost Works Regeneration; Word of God Languages: English Tune Title: LANCASTER

How helpless guilty nature lies

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #77 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 How helpless guilty nature lies, Unconscious of its load! The heart, unchanged, can never rise To happiness and God. 2 Can aught beneath a power divine The stubborn will subdue? ’Tis Thine, O Holy Spirit, Thine To form the heart anew. 3 ’Tis Thine the passions to recall, And upwards bid them rise, To make the scales of error fall From reason’s darkened eyes; 4 To chase the shades of death away, And bid the sinner live; A beam of heaven, a vital ray, ’Tis Thine alone to give. 5 O change these wretched hearts of ours, And give them life divine! Then shall our passions and our powers, Almighty Lord, be Thine. Topics: Natural Depravity; Holy Ghost Works Regeneration; Regeneration Languages: English Tune Title: LANCASTER

Deluded souls that dream of heaven

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #78 (1898) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Christian Hymns Lyrics: 1 Deluded souls that dream of heaven, And make their empty boast Of inward joys and sins forgiven, While they are slaves to lust! 2 Vain are our fancies' airy flights, If faith be cold and dead; None but a living power unites To Christ, the living Head; 3 A faith that changes all the heart, A faith that works by love; That bids all sinful joys depart, And lifts the thoughts above. 4 Faith must obey our Father’s will, As well as trust His grace: A pardoning God requires us still To perfect holiness.
