Jehovah speaks, "Seek ye my face"
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #226 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Holy Spirit Vanity and uncertainty of life Lyrics: 1 Jehovah speaks, "Seek ye my face,"
My soul admires the wondrous grace;
I'll seek thy face--thy Spirit give!
O let me see thy face and live.
2 I'll wait; perhaps my Lord may come;
(If I turn back, how sad my doom!)
And begging, in his way I'll lie,
Till the sweet hour he passeth by.
3 Daily I'll seek, with cries and tears,
With secret sighs, and fervent pray'rs;
And, if not hear--I'll weeping sit,
And perish at the Saviour's feet.
4 But canst thou, Lord! see all my pain,
And bid me seek thy face in vain?
Thou wilt not, canst not, me deceive--
The soul that seeks thy face shall live. Scripture: Psalm 27:8
Jehovah speaks, "Seek ye my face"
The time is short! the season near
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #227 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Holy Spirit Vanity and uncertainty of life Lyrics: 1 The time is short! the season near,
When death will us remove;
To leave our friends, however dear,
And all we fondly love.
2 The time is short! sinners beware,
Nor trifle time away;
The word of great salvation hear,
While it is call'd to-day.
3 The time is short! ye rebels, now
To Christ the Lord submit;
To mercy's golden sceptre bow,
And fall at Jesus' feet.
4 The time is short! ye saints rejoice--
The Lord will quickly come:
Cure the vile fever of the mind,
And feed our soul with joys refin'd. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 7:29
The time is short! the season near

The Great Teacher
God the Righteous Judge
Hymnal: The Psalter #253 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Vanity Of Men and Riches First Line: O Lord, Thou Judge of all the earth Lyrics: 1 O Lord, Thou Judge of all the earth,
To Whom all vengeance doth belong,
Arise and show Thy glory forth,
Requite the proud, condemn the wrong.
2 How long, O Lord, in boastful pride
Shall wicked men triumphant stand?
How long shall they afflict Thy saints
And devastate Thy chosen land?
3 The widow and the fatherless
They slay, and helpless strangers smith;
The faithful God they do not fear,
They say the Lord will not requite.
4 Be wise, ye fools and brutish men;
Shall not He see Who formed the eye?
Shall not He hear Who formed the ear,
And judge, Who reigneth, God Most High?
5 The Lord will judge in righteousness,
From Him all truth and knowledge flow;
The foolish thoughts of wicked men,
How vain they are the Lord doth know.
6 That man is blest whom Thou, O Lord,
With chastening hand dost teach Thy will,
For in the day when sinners fall
That man in peace abideth still.
7 The Lord will not cast off His own,
Nor His inheritance forsake;
Just judgment shall at length prevail,
And upright hearts shall courage take.
8 Who will arise for my defense
Against the wicked in the land?
Against iniquity and wrong
What man for me will valiant stand?
9 Unless the Lord had been my help,
My life had quickly passed away;
But when my foot had almost slipped,
O Lord, Thy mercy was my stay.
10 Amid the doubts that fill my mind
Thy comforts, Lord, bring joy to me;
Can wickedness, though throned in might,
Have fellowship, O Lord, with Thee?
11 The wicked, in their might arrayed,
Against the righteous join their power,
But to the Lord I flee for help,
He is my refuge and my tower.
12 Our God, the refuge of His saints,
Will fight against iniquity;
Avenger of the innocent
The Lord omnipotent will be. Scripture: Psalm 94 Languages: English Tune Title: LYTHAM
God the Righteous Judge

Born of the Earth at first?
His Life a Shadow, light and vain,

To visit him with Grace?

Who shakes the Worlds above,
And Mountains tremble at his Frown,
How wond'rous is his Love!

Nor Sons of Plunder break the Peace.

Himself with all his Grace bestows. Scripture: Psalm 144:12-15 Languages: English

And speak thy Majesty divine;
Let Britain round her Shores proclaim
The Sound and Honour of thy Name.

The long Succession of thy Praise,
And unborn Ages make my Song

Vast and unsearchable thy Ways,
Vast and immortal be thy Praise. Scripture: Psalm 144 Languages: English
