Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 91 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Consider all my sorrows, Lord, And Thy deliverance send; My soul for Thy salvation faints; When will my troubles end? 2 Yet I have found ’tis good for me To bear my Father’s rod; Afflictions make me learn Thy law, And live upon my God. 3 This is the comfort I enjoy When new distress begins— I read Thy Word, I run Thy way, And hate my former sins. 4 Had not Thy Word been my delight When earthly joys were fled, My soul, oppressed with sorrow’s weight, Had sunk amongst the dead. 5 I know Thy judgments, Lord, are right, Though they may seem severe; The sharpest sufferings I endure Flow from Thy faithful care. 6 Before I knew Thy chastening rod My feet were apt to stray; But now I learn to keep Thy Word Nor wander from Thy way.

Not all the outward forms on earth

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 155 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Not all the outward forms on earth, Nor rites that God has given, Nor will of man, nor blood, nor birth, Can raise a soul to heaven. 2 The sovereign will of God alone, Creates us heirs of grace; Born in the image of his Son, A new, peculiar race. 3 The Spirit, like some heavenly wind, Breathes on the sons of flesh, New-models all the carnal mind, And forms the man afresh. 4 Our quickened souls awake and rise From the long sleep of death; On heavenly things we fix our eyes, And praise employs our breath.
