Come, Let Our Souls Adore the Lord

Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 42 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Come, let our souls adore the Lord Whose judgments yet delay; Who yet suspends the lifted sword, And gives us time to pray. 2. Great is our guilt, our fears are great, But let us not despair; Still open is the mercy seat To penitence and prayer. 3. Kind Intercessor, to Thy love This blessèd hope we owe; O let Thy mercies plead above, While we implore below! 4. Though justice near Thy awful throne Attends Thy dread command, Lord, hear Thy servants, hear Thy Son, And save a guilty land.

The Ten Commandments

Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: God spake these Words, O Isr'el, hear Lyrics: 1 GOD spake these Words, O Isr'el, hear, What I shall now command; Thy LORD and only GOD am I, Who with Almighty Hand 2 From Egy't's Land, and from the House OfBondag set thee free; And therefore, Isr'el, thou shlat hve No other Gods but me. II 3 Thou shalt no graven Image make, Nor Likeness shalt thou feign, Of any Thing that Heav'n or Earth, Or watry Deeps contain. 4 Thou shalt not bow thyself to them, Nor outward Worship pay; Much less shalt thou in Heart adore, And to an Idol pray. 5 For I, thy GOD, a jealous GOD, The Father's Sins chastise, To third and fourth Descent, of all Who are my Enemies. 6 But Mercy do to Thousands shew, And bounteously repay, All those who me sincerely love, And my Commands obey. III 7 The sacred Name of GOD, thy LORD, Thou never shalt profane; For GOD will them not guiltless hold, Who take his Name in vain. IV 8 Remember thou the Sabbath-Day To keep with holy Care; Six Days for Labour thou shalt take; The seventh shalt revere. 9 The LORD thy GOD the seventh Day His Sabbath doth ordain; In which thou shalt from ev'ry Kind Of worldly Work refrain. 10 Thyself, thy Children, Servants then From Labour shall be free; Thy Cattle, and the Stranger whom Thou tak'st to dwell with thee. 11 For GOD thy LORD was pleas'd the Space Of six whole Days to take, The Heav'ns, the Earth and Seas, and all Therein contain'd, to make; 12 But rested on the seventh Day, Which for that Case he bless'd, And sanctifi'd it to be kpet A Day of holy Rest. V 13 Honour thy Parents, that thou may'st Both long and happy live, In that bless'd Land, which GOD thy LORD Did for thy Dwelling give. VI 14 Thou shalt not kill; avoid whate'er To Life would hurtful prove; To all Mankind thou shalt perform The Offices of Love. VII 15 Adult'ry thou shalt not commit, But keep thee chaste and clean; The Temples of the LORD must not Defiled be with Sin. VIII 16 Thou shalt not steal; detest all Fraud, And never seek by Wrong To take unto thyself, what to Another doth belong. IX 17 False Witness thou shalt never bear, Against another's Name. Hate Lies, love Truth, thou shalt defend, Thy Neighbour's honest Fame. X 18 Thou shalt not covet House, or Wife, Or Man, or Maid of his, Or Ox, or Ass, or aught whereof He rightful Owner is. 19 Have Mercy therefore on us, LORD< And all our Hearts incline, With Diligence and Care to keep Those righteous Laws of thine.

Father of Mercies, in Thy Word

Author: Anne Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 763 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Father of mercies, in Thy Word What endless glory shines! Forever be Thy name adored For these celestial lines. 2 Here may the blind and hungry come And light and food receive; Here shall the lowliest guest have room And taste and see and live. 3 Here springs of consolation rise To cheer the fainting mind, And thirsty souls receive supplies And sweet refreshment find. 4 Here the Redeemer’s welcome voice Spreads heav'nly peace around, And life and everlasting joys Attend the blissful sound. 5 Oh, may these hallowed pages be My ever dear delight; And still new beauties may I see And still increasing light! 6 Divine Instructor, gracious Lord, Be Thou forever near; Teach me to love Thy sacred Word, And view my Savior here. Amen. Topics: The Word Law and Gospel Scripture: Psalm 119:127 Used With Tune: BEDFORD
