Let me but hear my Saviour say

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #201 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Glorification and condescension of Christ Lyrics: Let me but hear my Savior say, "Strength shall be equal to thy day," Then I rejoice in deep distress, Leaning on all-sufficient grace. I glory in infirmity, That Christ's own power may rest on me: When I am weak, then am I strong, Grace is my shield, and Christ my song. I can do all things, or can bear All suff'rings, if my Lord be there; Sweet pleasures mingle with the pains, While his left hand my head sustains. But if the Lord be once withdrawn, And we attempt the work alone, When new temptations spring and rise, We find how great our weakness is. [So Samson, when his hair was lost, Met the Philistines to his cost; Shook his vain limbs with sad surprise, Made feeble fight, and lost his eyes.] Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:10 Languages: English

Not to condemn the sons of men

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #283 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Glorification and condescension of Christ Lyrics: Not to condemn the sons of men, Did Christ, the Son of God, appear; No weapons in his hands are seen, No flaming sword nor thunder there. Such was the pity of our God, He loved the race of man so well, He sent his Son to bear our load Of sins, and save our souls from hell. Sinners, believe the Savior's word, Trust in his mighty name and live; A thousand joys his lips afford, His hands a thousand blessings give. But vengeance and damnation lies On rebels who refuse the grace; Who God's eternal Son despise, The hottest hell shall be their place. Scripture: John 3:16-18 Languages: English

Who can describe the joys that rise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #328 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Glorification and condescension of Christ Lyrics: Who can describe the joys that rise Through all the courts of Paradise, To see a prodigal return, To see an heir of glory born?

The Spirit takes delight to view The holy soul he formed anew; And saints and angels join to sing, The growing empire of their King. Scripture: Luke 15:7 Languages: English

Firm as his throne his promise stands, And he can well secure What I've committed to his hands Till the decisive hour. Then will he own my worthless name Before his Father's face, And in the new Jerusalem Appoint my soul a place. Scripture: 2 Timothy 1:12 Languages: English
