Everlasting Love and electing Grace

Author: Toplady Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings God's Everlasting Love; Election; Everlasting love; Holiness desired; Love of God, electing everlasting First Line: How happy are we Lyrics: 1 How happy are we Our election who see, And venture, O Lord, for salvation on thee! In Jesus approv'd, Eternally lov'd, Upheld by thy power we cannot be mov'd. 2 'Tis sweet to recline On the bosom divine, And experience the comforts peculiar to thine; While, born from above, And upheld by thy love With singing and triumph to Zion we move. 3 Our seeking thy face, Was all of thy grace; Thy mercy demands and shall have all the praise. No sinner can be Beforehand with thee, Thy grace is preventing, almighty and free. 4 Our Savior and friend His love shall extend, It knew no beginning, and never shall end. Whom once he receives is spirit ne'er leaves, Nor ever repents of the grace that he gives. 5 This proof we would give, That thee we receive, Thou art precious alone to the souls that believe. Be precious to us! All beside is as dross, Compar'd with thy love and the blood of thy Cross. Part the second: 6 Yet, one thing we want More holiness grant! For more of thy mind, and thine image we pant; Thine image impress On thy favorite race, O fashion and polish thy vessels of grace. 7 Thy workmanship we More fully would be, Lord, stretch out thy hand and conform us to thee; While outward we move To Canaan above, Come fill us with holiness, fill us with love. 8 Vouchsafe us to know More of thee below Thus fit us for heaven, and glory bestow Our harps shall be tun'd, The Lamb shall be crown'd; Salvation to Jesus thro' heaven shall resound.

O that I knew where I might find him; or, sins and Sorrows laid before God

Author: Watts Appears in 223 hymnals Topics: Scripture Doctrines and Blessings Communion with God; Communion with Christ Desired; Sin and sorrow laid before God; Sorrow laid before God First Line: O that I knew the secret place Lyrics: 1 O that I knew the secret place Where I might find my God! I'd spread my wants before his face, And pour my woes abroad. 2 I'd tell him how my sins arise, What sorrows I sustain; How grace decays, and comfort dies, And leaves my heart in pain. 3 He knows what arguments I'd take To wrestle with my God; I'd plead for his own mercy's sake, And for my Savior's blood. 4 My God will pity my complaints, And heal my broken bones; He takes the meaning of his saints, The language of their groans. 5 Arise, my soul, from deep distress, And banish every fear; He calls thee to his throne of grace, To spread thy sorrows there. Scripture: Job 23:3-4 Text Sources: Dr. Watts's Sermons
