A Song of Praise for the Holy Ghost
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CLXXXVII (1791) Topics: Spiritual Poverty First Line: My Soul doth magnify the Lord Lyrics: 1 My Soul doth magnify the Lord,
My Spirit doth Rejoice
In God my Saviour and my God;
I hear his joyful Voice.
2 I need not go abroad for Joys,
I have a Feast at Home;
My Sighs are turned into Songs,
The Comforter is come.
3 Down from above, the blessed Dove
Is come into my Breast,
To Witness God's eternal Love;
This is my Heav'nly Feast.
4 This makes me Abba Father cry,
With Confidence of Soul;
It makes me cry, My Lord, my God,
And that without Controul.
5 There is a Stream which issues forth
From god's eternal Throne,
And from the Lamb, a living Stream,
Clear as the Crystal Stone:
6 The Stream doth Water Paradise,
It makes the Angels sing:
One Cordial Drop revives my Heart,
Hence all my Joys do spring.
7 Such Joys as are unspeakable,
And full of Glory too;
Such hidden Manna, hidden Pearls,
As Worldlings do not know.
8 Eye hath not seen, nor Ear hath heard,
From Fancy 'tis conceal'd,
What thou, Lord, hast laid up for thine,
And hast to me reveal'd.
9 I see thy Face, I hear thy Voice,
I taste thy sweetest Love;
My Soul doth leap, but Oh for Wings;
The Wings of Noah's Dove.
10 Then would I flee, far hence away,
Leaving this World of Sin;
Then Would my Lord put forth his Hand,
And kindly take me in.
11 Then would my Soul with Angels Feast,
On Joys which always last;
Blest be my God, the God of Joy,
Who gives me here a Taste. Languages: English
A Song of Praise for the Holy Ghost
On thee, O God of Purity
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCXI (1791) Topics: Spiritual Poverty Lyrics: 1 On Thee, O God of Purity,
I wait for hallowing Grace;
None without Holiness shall see
The Glories of thy Face;
In Souls Unholy, and Unclean,
Thou never canst Delight;
Nor shall they, while unsav'd from Sins,
Appear before thy Sight.
2 But as for me, with humble Fear,
I will approach thy Gate;
Though most Unworthy to draw near,
Or in thy courts to wait;
I trust in thine unbounded Grace,
To all so freely giv'n;
And worship t'ward thy Holy Place,
And lift my Soul to Heav'n.
3 Lead me in all thy righteous Ways,
Nor suffer me to slide;
Point out the Path before my Face,
My God be thou my Guide!
O may I ne'er to Evil yield,
Defended from above,
And kept, and cover'd with the Shield
Of thine Almighty Love.

Pardoning Grace
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCXII (1791) Topics: Spiritual Poverty First Line: Out of the depths of long distress Lyrics: 1 Out of the Depths of long distress,
The Borders of Despair,
I sent my Cries to seek thy Grace,
My Groans to move thine Ear.
2 Great! God! should thy severer Eye,
And thine impartial Hand,
Mark and revenge Iniquity,
No mortal Flesh could stand.
3 But there are Pardons with my GOD
For Crimes of high Degree;
Thy Son has bought them with his Blood,
To draw us near to Thee.
4 [I wait for thy Salvation, LORD,
With strong Desires I wait;
My Soul, invited by thy Word,
Stands watching at thy Gate.]
5 [Just as the Guards that keep the Night
Long for the Morning Skies,
Watch the first Beams of breaking Light,
And meet them with their Eyes;
6 So waits my Soul to see thy Grace,
And more intent than they,
Meets the first Op'nings of thy Face,
And finds a brighter Day.]
7 [Then in the LORD let Isra'l trust,
Let Isra'l seek his Face;
The LORD is Good as well as Just,
And plenteous is his Grace.
8 There's full Redemption at his Throne
For Sinners long enslav'd;
The great Redeemer is his Son,
And Isra'l shall be sav'd.] Languages: English

Preserve me, Lord, in time of need
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.XVI.I (1816) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Confession of our Poverty Lyrics: 1 Preserve me, Lord, in time of need;
For succor to thy throne I flee,
But have no merits there to plead:
My goodness cannot reach to thee.
2 Oft have my heart and tongue confest
How empty and how poor I am;
My praise can never make thee blest,
Nor add new glories to thy name.
3 Yet, Lord, thy saints on earth may reap
Some profit by the good we do;
These are the company I keep,
These are the choicest friends I know.
4 Let others choose the songs of mirth
To give a relish to their wine;
I love the men of heav’nly birth,
Whose thoughts and language are divine. Scripture: Psalm 16:1-4 Languages: English
Preserve me, Lord, in time of need
To the Holy Ghost
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCLXIII (1791) Topics: Spiritual Poverty First Line: Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay Lyrics: 1 Stay, thou insulted Spirit, stay,
Tho' I have done thee such despite;
Cast not a Sinner quite away,
Nor take thine everlasting Flight.
2 Tho' I have most unfaithful been,
Of all, whoe'er thy Grace receiv'd;
Ten Thousand Times thy Goodness seen,
Ten Thousand Times thy Goodness griev'd;
3 But O! the chief of Sinners spare,
In Honour of my great High Priest;
Nor in thy righteous Anger swear
T' exclude me from thy People's Rest.
4 If yet thou canst my Sins forgive,
Ev'n now O LORD, relieve my woes;
Me to thy Rest of Love receive,
And bless me with a calm Repose,
5 Ev'n now my weary soul release,
And raise me by thy gracious Hand;
Guide me into thy perfect Peace,
And bring me to the promis'd Land.

The divided Heart lamented
Hymnal: The Christians Duty, exhibited, in a series of Hymns #CCLXVI (1791) Topics: Spiritual Poverty First Line: Strange that so much of Heav'n and Hell Lyrics: 1 Strange that so much of Heav'n and Hell
Should in One Bosom meet;
Lord, can thy Spirit ever dwell
Where Satan ha a Seat?
2 Now I am all transform'd to Love,
And could expire in Praise;
Then soon not all the Joys above
One chearful Note can raise.
3 When I with pensive Thoughts review
The Mazes I have trod,
Astonish'd at the Grace that drew
My wand'ring Soul to God;
4 Oh with what ardent Zeal I Vow
A rectitude within!
What Indignation fires me now,
At the mear Thoughts of Sin!
5 But vain Amusements, hurrying Cares,
Trifles of Loss or Gain,
Or Carnal Joys, or worldly Fears,
Seduce my Heart again.
6 By faithful Hopes, and golden Dreams,
I'm nurtur'd or betray'd,
Still toss'd between the two Extremes,
Too Vain, or too Dismay'd.
7 Decide the dubious awful Case,
By some alluring Sign;
And oh may thy all conqu'ring Grace
Declare that I am Thine! Languages: English
