Submission

Author: Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 260 hymnals Topics: Contentment First Line: O Lord, my best desires fulfill Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my best desires fulfil, And help me to resign Life, health, and comfort to thy will, And make thy pleasure mine. 2 Why should I shrink at thy command Whose love forbids my fears? Or tremble at the gracious hand That wipes away my tears? 3 No, let me rather freely yield What most I prize to thee; Who never hast a good withheld, Or wilt withhold from me. 4 Thy favor, all my journey thro' Thou art engag'd to grant; What else i want, or think I do, Tis better still to want. 5 Wisdom and mercy guide my way, Shall I resist them both? A poor blind creature of a day, And crush'd before the moth! 6 But ah! my inward spirit cries, Still bind me to thy sway; Else the next cloud that veils my skies, Drives all these thoughts away.

Sincerity and truth

Author: Dr. Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 36 hymnals Topics: Contentment First Line: Let those who bear the Christian name Lyrics: 1 Let those who bear the christian name Their holy vows fulfill: The saints, the followers of the lamb, Are men of honor still. 2 True to the solemn oaths they take, Tho' to their hurt they swear: Constant and just to all they speak, For God and angels hear. 3 Still with their lips their hearts agree, Nor flattering words devise: They know the God of truth can see Thro' every false disguise. 4 They hate the appearance of a lie, In all the shapes it wears; Firm to the truth—and when they die, Eternal life is theirs. 5 Lo! from afar the Lord descends, And brings the judgment down; He bids his saints, hi faithful friends, Rise and possess their crown. 6 While satan trembles at the sight, And devils wish to die, Where will the faithless hypocrite And guilty liar fly? Scripture: Philippians 4:8 Text Sources: Dr. Watt's Sermons
