O mother dear, Jerusalem
Psalm 119
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 484 hymnals First Line: How shall the young secure their hearts Lyrics: 1 How shall the young secure their hearts,
And guard their lives from sin?
Thy word the choicest rules imparts
To keep the conscience clean.
2 When once it enters to the mind,
It spreads such light abroad;
The meanest souls instruction find,
And raise their thoughts to God.
3 'Tis like the sun, a heavenly light,
That guides us all the day;
And, through the dangers of the night,
A lamp to lead our way.
4 Thy precepts make me truly wise;
I hate the sinner's road;
I hate my own vain thoughts that rise,
But love thy law, my God!
5 Thy word is everlasting truth;
How pure is every page!
That holy book shall guide our youth,
And well support our age. Topics: Bible; The Scriptures Scripture: Psalm 119:9 Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL

and bring me peace today.
3 Know me, mind of Jesus,
and show me all my sin;
dispel the memories of guilt,
and bring me peace within.

anxiety shall cease
and heaven's serenity be mine,
for Jesus brings me peace!

How bright these glorious spirits shine!
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 158 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How bright these glorious spirits shine!
whence all their white array?
How came they to the blissful seats
of everlasting day?
2 Lo, these are they from suff'rings great,
who came to realms of light,
and in the blood of Christ have wash'd
those robes that shine so bright.
3 Now, with triumphal palms they stand
before the throne on high,
and serve the God they love, amidst
the glories of the sky.
4 His presence fills each heart with joy,
tunes ev'ry mouth to sing:
by day, by night, the sacred courts
with glad hosannas ring.
5 Hunger and thirst are felt no more,
nor sun with scorching ray:
God is their sun, whose cheering beams
diffuse eternal day.
6 The Lamb, who dwells amidst the throne
shall o'er them still preside,
feed them with nourishment divine,
and all their footsteps guide.
7 'Mong pastures green he'll lead his flock,
where living streams appear;
and God the Lord from every eye
shall wipe off ev'ry tear. Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL (IRONS)

How Sad Our State by Nature Is!
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 291 hymnals First Line: How sad our state by nature is Lyrics: 1. How sad our state by nature is!
Our sin, how deep it stains!
And Satan binds our captive souls
Fast in his slavish chains.
2. But hark! a voice of sovereign grace
Sounds from the sacred Word;
Ho, ye despairing sinners, come,
And trust upon the Lord!
3. My soul obeys the Almighty’s call,
And runs to this relief;
I would believe Thy promise, Lord;
O help my unbelief!
4. To the blest fountain of Thy blood,
Incarnate God, I fly;
Here let me wash my spotted soul
From sins of deepest dye.
5. Stretch out Thine arm, victorious King,
My reigning sins subdue,
Drive the old Dragon from his seat,
With all his hellish crew.
6. A guilty, weak, and helpless worm,
Into Thy hands I fall;
Be Thou my strength and righteousness,
My Savior, and my all. Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL (Irons) Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs, 1707-9, Book II number 90

Psalm 119
Author: William Cowper Appears in 266 hymnals First Line: The Spirit breathes upon the word Lyrics: 1 The Spirit breathes upon the word,
And brings the truth to sight;
Precepts and promises afford
A sanctifying light.
2 A glory gilds the sacred page,
Majestic, like the sun;
It gives a light to every age;
It gives, but borrows none.
3 The hand, that gave it, still supplies
The gracious light and heat;
Its truths upon the nations rise,
They rise, but never set.
4 Let everlasting thanks be thine,
For such a bright display,
As makes a world of darkness shine
With beams of heavenly day.
5 My soul rejoices to pursue
The steps of him I love,
Till glory breaks upon my view,
In brighter worlds above. Topics: The Scriptures; Bible; Inspiration; Bible; Inspiration Used With Tune: SOUTHWELL
