Happy the man, whose wishes climb

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 Happy the man, whose wishes climb To mansions in the skies! He looks on all the joys of time With undesiring eyes. 2 In vain soft pleasure spreads her charms, And throws her silken chain; And wealth and fame invite his arms, And tempt his ear in vain. 3 He knows, that all these glitt'ring things Must yield to sure decay; And sees on time's extended wings How swift they flee away! 4 To things unseen by mortal eyes, A beam of sacred light Directs his view; his prospects rise All permanent and bright. 5 His hopes are fix'd on joys to come: Those blissful scenes on high Shall flourish in immortal bloom, When time and nature die.

The new-born child of gospel grace

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 37 hymnals Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon; The New Convert Lyrics: 1 The new-born child of gospel grace, Like some fair tree when summer's nigh, Beneath Emmanuel's shining face, Lifts up his blooming branch on high. 2 No fear he feels, he sees no foes, no conflict yet his faith employs, Nor has he learnt to whom he owes The strength and peace his soul enjoys. 3 But sin soon darts its cruel sting, And comforts sink from day by day: What seem'd his own, a self-fed spring, Proves but a brook that glides away. 4 When Gideon arm'd his numerous host, The Lord soon made his numbers less: And said, lest Israel vainly boast, "My arm procured me this success." 5 Thus will he bring our spirits down, And draw our ebbing comforts low, That saved by grace, but not our own, We may not claim the praise we owe.

On the brink of fi'ry ruin

Meter: Irregular Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 On the brink of fi'ry ruin, Justice, with a flaming sword, Was my guilty soul pursuing When I first beheld my Lord. 2 Terrify'd with Sinai's thunder, Straight I flew to Calvary, Where I saw with love and wonder, Hi by faith who died for me. 3 "Sinner," he exclaim'd, "I've lov'd thee With an everlasting love; Justice has in me approv'd thee; Thou shalt dwell with me above." 4 Sweet as angels' notes in heaven, When to golden harps they sound, Is the voice of sins forgiven, To the soul by satan bound. 5 Sweet as angels' harps in glory, Was that heavenly voice to me, When I saw my Lord before me Bleed and die to set me free! 6 Saints, attend with holy wonder! Sinners, hear and sing his praise! 'Tis the God that holds the thunder Shows himself the God of grace! Scripture: Jeremiah 31:3

When gloomy thoughts and fears

Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 56 hymnals Topics: Christian experience The convert entertaining hope of pardon Lyrics: 1 When gloomy thoughts and fears The trembling heart invade, And all the face of nature wears A universal shade: 2 Religion can assuage The tempest of the soul; And ev'ry fear shall lose its rage At her divine control. 3 Through life's bewilder'd way, Her hand unerring leads; And o'er the path her heav'nly ray A cheering lustre sheds. 4 When reason, tir'd and blind, Sinks helpless and afraid; Thou blest supporter of the mind, How pow'rful is thine aid! 5 O let me feel thy pow'r, And find thy sweet relief, To brighten ev'ry gloomy hour, And soften ev'ry grief.

Come unto Me, Ye Weary

Author: William C. Dix Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 261 hymnals Topics: Grace Converting Lyrics: 1 "Come unto me, ye weary, and I will give you rest." O blessed voice of Jesus which comes to hearts oppressed! It tells of benediction, of pardon, grace, and peace, of joy that hath no ending, of love which cannot cease. 2 "Come unto me, dear children, and I will give you light." O loving voice of Jesus which comes to cheer the night! Our hearts were filled with sadness, and we had lost our way; but morning brings us gladness, and songs the break of day. 3 "Come unto me, ye fainting, and I will give you life." O peaceful voice of Jesus which comes to end our strife! The foe is stern and eager, the fight is fierce and long; but thou hast made us mighty, and stronger than the strong. 4 "And whosoever cometh I will not cast him out." O patient love of Jesus which drives away our doubt; which calls us, very sinners, unworthy though we be of love so free and boundless, to come, dear Lord, to thee! Scripture: Matthew 11:28-30 Used With Tune: LLANGLOFFAN
Come unto Me, Ye Weary
