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.) #245 (1786) Topics: Perseverance; Perseverance First Line: With all my powers of heart and tongue Lyrics: 1 With all my powers of heart and tongue
I'll praise my Maker in my song;
Angels shall hear the notes I raise,
Approve the song, and join the praise.
2 [Angels that make thy church their care
Shall witness my devotions there,
While holy zeal directs my eyes
To thy fair temple in the skies.]
3 I'll sing thy truth and mercy, Lord,
I'll sing the wonders of thy word;
Not all the works and names below
So much thy power and glory show.
4 To God I cry'd when troubles rose;
He heard me, and subdu'd my foes:
He did my rising fears controul,
And strength diffus'd through all my soul.
5 The God of heaven maintains his state,
Frowns on the proud, and scorns the great;
But from his throne descends to bless
The humble souls that trust his grace.
6 Amidst a thousand snares I stand
Upheld and guarded by thy hand;
Thy words my fainting soul revive,
And keep my dying faith alive.
7 Grace will complete what grace begins,
To save from sorrows or from sins;
The work that wisdom undertakes,
Eternal mercy ne'er forsakes. Scripture: Psalm 138 Languages: English

That calls thee from on high,
'Tis his own hand presents the prize
To thine aspiring eye.

Am I a soldier of the cross
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #352 (1917) Topics: Perseverance; Perseverance Lyrics: 1 Am I a soldier of the cross,
A follower of the Lamb,
And shall I fear to own His cause,
Or blush to speak His name?
2 Must I be carried to the skies
On flowery beds of ease,
While others fought to win the prize,
Or sailed through blood seas?
3 Are there no foes for me to face?
Must I not stem the flood?
Is this vile world a friend to grace,
To help me on to God?
4 Sure I must fight, if I would reign;
Increase my courage, Lord;
I'll bear the toil, endure the pain,
Supported by Thy word.
5 Thy saints in all this glorious war
Shall conquer, though they die;
They see the triumph from afar,
By faith they bring it nigh.
6 When that illustrious day shall rise,
And all Thy armies shine
In robes of victory through the skies,
The glory shall be Thine. Languages: English Tune Title: ARLINGTON

Accepts the peace his pardon gives;
Receives the grace his death secured,
And pleads the anguish he endured.

And cries 'Tis God that justifies!

Shall Christ, who died their peace to win?

To our eternal, glorious King!
Shall worship humbly at his feet,
In whom alone it stands complete. Languages: English

"The burden rolled away"
Author: Ellen H. Willis Hymnal: Laudes Domini #430 (1890) Topics: Perseverance; Perseverance First Line: I left it all with Jesus long ago Lyrics: 1 I left it all with Jesus long ago,
All my sins I brought him and my woe;
When by faith I saw him on the tree,
Heard his small, still whisper, "'Tis for thee."
From my heart the burden rolled away!
Happy day.
2 I leave it all with Jesus, for he knows
How to steal the bitter from life's woes;
How to gild the tear-drop with his smile,
Make the desert garden bloom awhile:
When my weakness leaneth on his might,
All seems light.
3 I leave it all with Jesus day by day;
Faith can firmly trust him, come what may.
Hope has dropped her anchor, found her rest,
In the calm sure haven of his breast;
Love esteems it heaven to abide
At his side. Languages: English Tune Title: SECURITY
