Blest are the undefiled in heart

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #439 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christians their life and experience Lyrics: 1 Blest are the undefiled in heart, Whose ways are right and clean, Who never from Thy law depart, But flee from ev'ry sin. 2 Blest are the men that keep Thy word, And practice Thy commands; With their whole heart they seek the Lord, And serve Thee with their hands. 3 Great is their peace who love Thy law; How firm their souls abide! Nor can a bold temptation draw Their steady feet aside. 4 Then shall my heart have inward joy And keep my face from shame, When all Thy statutes I obey, And honor all Thy name. Languages: English

The man is ever blest

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #440 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christians their life and experience Lyrics: 1 That one is ever blest Who shuns the sinners’ ways, Among their councils never stands, Nor takes a scorner's place. 2 But makes the law of God His study and delight, Amidst the labors of the day And watches of the night. 3 He like a tree shall thrive, With waters near the root: Fresh as the leaf, his name shall live, His works are heavenly fruit. 4 Not so th'ungodly race, They no such blessings find; Their hopes shall flee like empty chaff Before the driving wind. 5 How will they bear to stand Before the judgment-seat, Where all the saints at Christ's right hand In full assembly meet? 6 He knows and He approves The way the righteous go: But sinners and their works shall meet A dreadful overthrow.

What cheering words are these?

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #441 (1870) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Christians their life and experience Lyrics: 1 What cheering words are these? Their sweetness who can tell? In time and to eternity, ’Tis with the righteous well. 2 In ev'ry state secure, Kept by Jehovah’s eye, ’Tis well with them while life endures, And well when call'd to die. 3 ’Tis well when joys arise, ’Tis well when sorrows flow; ’Tis well when darkness veils the skies, And strong temptations blow. 4 ’Tis well when on the mount They feast on dying love; And ’tis as well, in God’s account, When they the furnace prove. 5 'Tis well when at His throne They wrestle, weep, and pray; 'Tis well when at His feet they groan, Yet bring their wants away. 6 'Tis well when Jesus calls: "From earth and sin, arise, Join with the hosts of virgin souls, Made to salvation wise!"

Oh, happy soul that lives on high

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #442 (1870) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Christians their life and experience Lyrics: 1 Oh, happy soul that lives on high, While men lie grov'ling here, His hopes are fix'd above the sky, And faith forbids his fear. 2 His conscience knows no secret stings, While grace and joy combine To form a life whose holy springs Are hidden and divine. 3 He waits in secret on his God; His God in secret sees: Let earth be all in arms abroad, He dwells in heavenly peace. 4 His pleasures rise from things unseen, Beyond this world and time, Where neither eyes nor ears have been, Nor thoughts of mortals climb. 5 He looks to heaven's eternal hill, To meet that glorious day When Christ His promise shall fulfil And call his soul away.

The path that Jesus trod, Though rough and strait and dark it be, Leads home to heaven and God. Languages: English

How do Thy mercies close me round!

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #448 (1870) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christians their life and experience Lyrics: 1 How do Thy mercies close me round! For ever be Thy name adored; I blush in all things to abound; The servant is above his Lord! 2 Inured to poverty and pain, A suff'ring life my Master led: The Son of God, the Son of man, He had not where to lay His head. 3 But lo! a place He hath prepared For me, whom watchful angels keep; Yea, He himself becomes my guard; He smooths my bed and gives me sleep. 4 Jesus protects; my fears, begone: What can the Rock of Ages move? Safe in Thine arms I lay me down, Thine everlasting arms of love. 5 I rest beneath th'Almighty's shade, My griefs expire, my troubles cease; Thou, Lord, on whom my soul is stay'd, Wilt keep me still in perfect peace. 6 Me for Thine own Thou lov'st to take In time and in eternity; Thou never, never wilt forsake A helpless worm that trusts in Thee.
