The World's three chief Temptations

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #57 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fall and Depravity of Man First Line: When in the light of faith divine Lyrics: 1 When in the light of faith divine We look on things below, Honor, and gold, and sensual joy, How vain and dangerous too! 2 Honor's a puff of noisy breath; Yet men expose their blood, And venture everlasting deat To gain that airy good. 3 Whilst others starve the nobler mind, And feed on shining dust, They rob the serpent of his food T'indulge a sordid lust. 4 The pleasures that allure our sense Are dangerous snares to souls; There's but a drop of flattering sweet, And dash'd with bitter bowls. 5 God is mine all-sufficient good, My portion and my choice; In him my vast desires are fill'd, And all my powers rejoice. 6 In vain the world accosts my ear, And tempts my heart anew; I cannot buy your bliss so dear, Nor part with heaven for you.

The End of the World

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #58 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Fall and Depravity of Man First Line: Why should this earth delight us so? Lyrics: 1 Why should this earth delight us so? Why should we fix our eyes On these low grounds where sorrows grow, And every pleasure dies ? 2 While time his sharpest teeth prepares, Our comforts to devour, There is a land above the stars, And joys above his power. 3 Nature shall be dissolv'd and die, The sun must end his race, The earth and sea for ever fly Before the Savior's face. 4 When will that glorious morning rise? When the last trumpet sound, And call the nations to the skies, From underneath the ground? Languages: English

The Vanity of earthly Things

Hymnal: A Collection of Hymns and Prayers, for Public and Private Worship #59 (1845) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Fall and Depravity of Man First Line: What are possessions, fame, and power Lyrics: 1 What are possessions, fame, and power The boasted splendour of the great? What gold, which dazzled eyes adore, And seek with endless toils and sweat? 2 Express their charms, declare their use, That we their merits may descry; Tell us what good they can produce, Or what important wants supply. 3 If, wounded with the sense of sin, To them for pardon we should pray, Will they restore our peace within, And wash our guilty stains away? 4 Can they celestial life inspire, Nature with power divine renew, With pure and sacred transports fire Our bosom, and our lusts subdue? 5 When with the pangs of death we strive, And yield all comforts here for lost, Will they support us, will they give Kind succor, when we need it most? 6 When at th'Almighty's awful bar To hear our final doom we stand, Can they incline the Judge to spare, Or wrest the vengeance from his hand? 7 Can they protect us from despair, From the dark reign of death and hell, Crown us with bliss, and throne us where The just, in joys immortal, dwell? 8 Sinners, your idols we despise, If these reliefs they cannot grant; Why should we such delusions prize, And pine in everlasting want?
