And follows his commands.

Nor slanders with his tongue;
Will scarce believe an ill report,
Nor do his neighbour wrong.

Loves all that fear the Lord;
And tho' to his own hurt he swears,
Still he performs his word.

And never wrong the poor;

And find his heaven secure. Scripture: Psalm 15 Languages: English

No slanders dwell upon his tongue;

Nor vent it to his neighbour's hurt:

And always makes his promise good
Nor dares to change the thing he swears,
Whatever pain or loss he bears.]

And mourns that justice should be sold:
While others scorn and wrong the poor,
Sweet charity attends his door.]

For those that curse him to his face;
And doth to all men still the same
That he would hope or wish from them.

His soul depends on grace alone:
This is the man thy face shall see,
And dwell for ever, Lord, with thee. Scripture: Psalm 15 Languages: English

The Book of Nature and of Scripture
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #34 (1740) Topics: Works and grace First Line: Behold the lofty sky Lyrics: 1 Behold the lofty Sky
Declares its Maker GOD,
And all his starry Works on high
Proclaim his Pow'r abroad.
2 The Darkness and the Light
Still keep their Course the same;
While Night to Day, and Day to Night,
Divinely teach his Name.
3 In ev'ry diff'rent Land
Their gen'ral Voice is known;
They shew the Wonders of his Hand,
And Orders of his Throne.
4 Ye British Lands, rejoice,
Here he reveals his Word,
We are not left to Nature's Voice,
To bid us know the Lord.
5 His Statutes and Commands
Are set before our Eyes,
He puts his Gospel in our Hands,
Where our Salvation lies.
6 His Laws are just and pure,
His Truth without Deceit,
His Promises for ever sure,
And his Rewards are great.
7 [Not Honey to the Taste
Affords so much Delight,
Nor Gold that has the Furnace past,
So much allures the Sight.
8 While of thy Works I sing,
Thy Glory to proclaim,
Accept the Praise, my GOD, my King
In my Redeemer's Name.]

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #37b (1786) Topics: Works and grace; Works and grace First Line: Great God, the heaven's well order'd frame Lyrics: 1 Great God, the heaven's well order'd frame
Declares the glories of thy name:
There thy rich works of wonder shine;
A thousand starry beauties there,
A thousand radiant marks appear
Of boundless power, and skill divine.
2 From night to day, from day to night,
The dawning and the dying light,
Lectures of heavenly wisdom read:
With silent eloquence they raise
Our thoughts to our Creator's praise,
And neither sound nor language need.
3 Yet their divine instructions run
Far as the journies of the sun,
And every nation knows their voice:
The sun, like some young bridegroom drest,
Breaks from the chambers of the east,
Rolls round, and makes the earth rejoice.
4 Where'er he spreads his beams abroad,
He smiles, and speaks his maker God:
All nature joins to shew thy praise:
Thus God in every creature shines;
Fair is the book of nature's lines,
But fairer is thy book of grace.
Pause.
5 I love the volumes of thy word;
What light and joy those leaves afford
To souls benighted and distrest!
Thy precepts guide my doubtful way,
Thy fear forbids my feet to stray,
Thy promise leads my heart to rest.
6 From the discoveries of thy law
The perfect rules of life I draw:
These are my study and delight;
Not honey so invites the taste,
Nor gold that hath the furnace past
Appears so pleasing to the sight.
7 Thy threatenings wake my slumbering eyes,
And warn me where my danger lies;
But 'tis thy blessed gospel, Lord,
That makes my guilty conscience clean,
Converts my soul, subdues my sin,
And gives a free, but large reward.
8 Who knows the errors of his thoughts?
My God, forgive my secret faults,
And from presumptuous sins restrain:
Accept my poor attempts of praise,
That I have read thy book of grace
And book of nature not in vain. Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English
