Our Children Thou Dost Claim
Author: Benjamin Williams, 1725-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16036 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Our children Thou dost claim,
And mark them out for Thine:
Ten thousand blessings to Thy name
For goodness so divine.

And Thee the sons adore,
Joined to the Lord in solemn vow,
To be forgot no more.
3 How great Thy mercies, Lord!
How plenteous is Thy grace,
Which in Thy love and promised word
Includes our rising race.
4 Our offspring, still Thy care,
Shall own their fathers’ God,
To latest times Thy blessings share,
And sound Thy praise abroad. Languages: English Tune Title: AYLESBURY

And there your homage pay.

The mercy, love and grace,
Attested now, decreed before,
For Adam’s ruined race.
4 Glory to God in lofty strains,
At the Redeemer’s birth;
Let joy spread thro’ the heav’nly plains,
And peace abound on earth.
5 Let every heart and every tongue
Diffuse His praise abroad;
Shepherds, begin the rapturous song,
All hail, incarnate Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: MANOAH

Quickly My Days Have Passed Away
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16085 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Quickly my days have passed away,
[or, How quick my days have passed away,]
How soon alas, they’re gone!
Life’s gayest scenes decline in haste,
Just like the setting sun.
2 Always in motion, ne’er at rest,
My minutes onward roll;
Swift to pursue their destined course,
And soon will reach the goal.
3 Eternal pains or endless joys
Stand waiting at the door;
The moments past or those to come,
Are not within my power.
4 God of my strength and of my hope,
In whom I live and move,
Help me by Thine instructive grace
The present to improve.
5 And if through this revolving year,
Thou shouldst my life prolong,
Oh may Thy wisdom guide my steps,
Thy praise employ my tongue. Languages: English Tune Title: OLD MARTYRS
Quickly My Days Have Passed Away
Our Like Is Like A Vapor, Gone
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16086 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Our life is like a vapor, gone Lyrics: 1 Our life is like a vapor, gone,
Our moments swiftly fly;
Lo, scarce our sands begin to run,
Ere we begin to die.
2 Our days on earth are but a span,
A sudden breath of air;
Lord, what a brittle thing is man,
How vain is mortal care.
3 Various unnumbered ills attend
Our weak and helpless frame,
Our fleeting life, so soon it ends,
lt scarce deserves the name.
4 No weaver’s shuttle moves so fast,
No stream so swiftly flows;
Time bears us on with rapid haste,
To endless joys or woes.
5 See, sickness, sorrow round us wait,
And nature is infirm;
Our age to seventy years is set,
Alas, how short the term!
6 Or, should we by uncommon strength
To fourscore years attain,
Yet feebleness will come at length,
And bring disease and pain.
7 Oh may I learn the heav’nly art,
T’improve each passing hour;
And what my hands shall find to do,
Dispatch with all my power. Languages: English Tune Title: CAMPMEETING

Awake, Believing Souls, Awake
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16087 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Awake, believing souls, awake Lyrics: 1 Awake, believing souls, awake,
Your solemn vows renew,
To Him who died upon the cross,
And pleads in Heav’n for you.
2 Awake, my dull inactive soul,
Nor more indulge delay;
Let acts of piety and love
Mark each revolving day.
3 Each day of this new year, would I
Devote, oh God to Thee;
Each day of this new year, do Thou
Impart new strength to me. Languages: English Tune Title: EAGLEY

Another Year Is Quickly Gone
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16088 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Another year is quickly gone Lyrics: 1 Another year is quickly gone,
With its revolving days,
And yet how little have I done,
For my creator’s praise!
2 I have a warfare to maintain,
Against the world and sin;
But oh, what little ground I gain,
How slothful have I been.
3 My sands, alas, how fast they run,
How swift my moments fly;
And yet my work is scarce begun,
Now death approaches nigh.
4 My heart is hard and stubborn still,
My wild affections rove;
Grace has but half subdued my will,
But half obtained my love.
5 God’s holy laws I still transgress,
His righteous will oppose;
My follies every day increase,
My debt still larger grows.
6 Impartial Judge, how shall I bear
Thy scrutinizing view?
Oh may I better live this year,
Or never live it through! Languages: English Tune Title: EVAN
Another Year Is Quickly Gone
Thy Greatness, Lord

What mortal tongue can tell?
Thy throne is fixed, Thy power extends,
O’er Heaven and earth and hell.
2 Who can evade or who resist,
The vengeance of a God?
Thy wrath vindictive, once provoked,
Spreads terror all abroad.
3 The wide dominion and the power,
The sovereignty is Thine;
‘Tis Thine the universe to rule,
With majesty divine.
4 To Thee, by all the hosts of Heaven,
By all the human race,
Be everlasting honors given,
And universal praise. Languages: English Tune Title: MAITLAND
Thy Greatness, Lord
I Know That My Redeemer Lives

The Lord of liberty;
I trust the pledge of life He gives
For all eternity.
2 O Lord, I would that I might live
A fearless life and free;
Rich in the joy that Thou dost give,
Now and eternally.
3 O Lord, I would live straight and strong
In body, soul, and mind;
Unbound by habits that are wrong;
Joyous, and true, and kind.
4 O Lord, my God, I would love Thee
With all my strength, each day;
And in Thy Son, my Savior see
The Life, the Truth, the Way.
5 I trust the pledge of life He gives—
Eternal, full, and free;
I know that my Redeemer lives,
And shares His life with me. Languages: English Tune Title: BRADFORD

When God Comes Forth
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #16115 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: When God comes forth, with terrors clad Lyrics:
1 When God comes forth, with terrors clad,
From His resplendent seat,
What mortal can His power evade,
His arm of vengeance meet?
2 Impetuous lightnings swiftly glide,
Hoarse thunders round Him roar;
Lo, tempests, storms rage far and wide,
And spread from shore to shore.
3 The sea its wonted bed forsakes,
And stars come rushing down;
The earth to its foundation shakes,
And sinks beneath His frown.
4 Now sinners, pierced with guilty stings,
Dread His avenging eye;
And mighty conquerors, potent kings,
To rocks and caverns fly.
5 In Jesus’ spotless righteousness,
Oh may I then appear;
And ’midst the terror and distress,
I need not yield to fear.
