A Funeral Hymn
Author: James Relly Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCCXVIII (1792) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Miscellaneous Hymns for Sundry Occasions First Line: Most precious in our Saviour's sight Lyrics: 1 Most precious in our Saviour's sight,
Are all his saints unnotic'd death!
He bears them to eternal light,
When they resign their mortal breath.
2 Precious the soul by him redeem'd;
From threat'ning evils snatch'd away,
Precious their dust, by him esteem'd,
He'll raise it at the latter day.
3 Free from this world's unnumber'd cares,
From Satan's rage, and human spite,
From sin's distress, and gloomy fears;
How precious this in Jesus' sight!
4 All this, and more, our brother proves;
Now he the Son of man can see;
He sees, he feels, he joys, he loves,
And all from intermission free.

To grace a marriage feast;

To make a wedding guest.

Their union with thy favour crown,
And bless their nuptial bands.

Of all rich dowries best!
Their substance bless, and peace bestow,
To sweeten all the rest.
4 In purest love their souls unite,
That they with christian care,
May make domestic burdens light,
By taking mutual share.
5 True helpers may thy prove indeed,
In prayer, and faith, and hope;
And see with joy a godly seed
To build their household up.
6 As Isaac and Rebecca give
A pattern chaste and kind;
So may this married couple live,
And die in friendship join'd.
7 On ev'ry soul assembled here,
O make thy face to shine;
Thy goodness more our hearts can cheer,
Than richest food or wine. Scripture: John 2:10 Languages: English

New Year's Day
Author: Robinson Hymnal: Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs #CCCXVI (1792) Meter: Irregular Topics: Miscellaneous Hymns for Sundry Occasions First Line: Come, thou fount of every blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, thou fount of every blessing,
Tune my heart to sing thy grace!
Streams of mercy never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise:
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount!—O fix me on it,
Mount of God's unchanging love.
2 Here I raise mine Ebenezer,
Hither by thy help I'm come;
And I hope by thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home:
Jesus sought me, when a stranger,
Wand'ring from the fold of God;
He to save my soul from danger,
Interpos'd with precious blood.
3 O! to grace how great a debtor,
Daily I'm constrain'd to be!
Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wand'ring heart to thee!
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it;
Prone to leave the God I love—
Here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it from thy courts above.
Scripture: Genesis 9:22 Languages: English

The gen'rous pleasure know;
Kindly to share in other's joy,
And weep for other's woe.
3 When the most helpless sons of grief
In low distress are laid,
Soft be our hearts, their pains to feel,
And swift our hands to aid.

When thron'd above the skies;
And mid'st th' embraces of his God,
He felt compassion rise.

To raise us from the ground,
And shed the richest of his blood,
A balm for ev'ry wound. Scripture: Matthew 5:42 Languages: English

The partners of thy grace;
And wilt confess their humble names
Before thy Father's face.

And visited and cheer'd;
And, in their accents of distress,
My Saviour's voice is heard.

We in thy poor would see;

Than keep it back from thee. Scripture: Proverbs 3:27-28 Languages: English

Thine let our offspring be.

Ye children, seek his face;
And fly with transport to receive
The blessings of his grace.

Thy guardian care we trust:
That care shall heal our bleeding hearts,
If weeping o'er their dust. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 7:14 Languages: English
