Psalm 22

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.52 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: Now let our mournful songs record Lyrics: Now let our mournful songs record The dying sorrows of our Lord, When he complained in tears and blood, As one forsaken of his God. The Jews beheld him thus forlorn, And shake their heads, and laugh in scorn: "He rescued others from the grave; Now let him try himself to save. "This is the man did once pretend God was his Father and his Friend; If God, the blessed, loved him so, Why doth he fail to help him now?" Barbarous people! cruel priests! How they stood round like savage beasts! Like lions gaping to devour, When God had left him in their power. They wound his head, his hands, his feet, Till streams of blood each other meet; By lot his garments they divide, And mock the pangs in which he died. But God, his Father, heard his cry; Raised from the dead, he reigns on high, The nations learn his righteousness, And humble sinners taste his grace. Scripture: Psalm 22:1 Languages: English

Bestir thyself, my soul! Where Jesus Christ has entered, There let thy hope be centered; Press onward toward the goal. 4 Let all our thoughts be winging To where thou didst ascend, And let our hearts be singing: "We seek thee, Christ, our Friend, Thee, God's exalted Son, Our Life, and Way to heaven, To whom all pow'r is given, Our Joy and Hope and Crown."

'Twas the commission of the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #525 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: 'Twas the commission of our Lord, "Go teach the nations, and baptize:" The nations have received the word Since he ascended to the skies. He sits upon th' eternal hills, With grace and pardon in his hands; And sends his cov'nant with the seals, To bless the distant British lands. "Repent, and be baptized," he saith, For the remission of your sins:" And thus our sense assists our faith, And shows us what his gospel means. Our souls he washes in his blood, As water makes the body clean; And the good Spirit from our God Descends like purifying rain. Thus we engage ourselves to thee, And seal our cov'nant with the Lord; O may the great eternal Three In heav'n our solemn vows record! Scripture: Matthew 28:19 Languages: English

Come, all harmonious Tongues

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LXXXIV (1766) Topics: The Passion and Exaltation of Christ Lyrics: 1 Come, all harmonious Tongues, Your noblest Music bring, 'Tis Christ, the everlasting God, And Christ, the Man, we sing. 2 Tell how he took our Flesh, To take away our Guilt, Sing the dear Drops of sacred Blood That hellish Monster spilt. [2 Alas, the cruel Spear Went deep into his Side, And the rich Flood of purple Gore Their murd'rous Weapons dyed.] [4 The Waves of swelling Grief Did o'er his Bosom roll, And Mountains of Almighty Wrath Lay heavy on his Soul.] 5 Down to the Shades of Death He bow'd his awful Head; Yet he arose to live and reign, When Death itself is dead. 6 No more the bloody Spear, The Cross and Nails no more; For Hell itself shakes at his Name, And all the Heav'ns adore. 7 There the Redeemer sits High on the Father's Throne; The Father lays his Vengeance by, And smiles upon his Son. 8 There his full Glories shine With uncreated Rays, And bless his Saints and Angels Eyes To everlasting Days.

I hate the tempter and his charms

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #92 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: I hate the tempter and his charms, I hate his flatt'ring breath; The serpent takes a thousand forms To cheat our souls to death. He feeds our hopes with airy dreams, Or kills with slavish fear; And holds us still in wide extremes, Presumption or despair. Now he persuades, "How easy 'tis To walk the road to heav'n;" Anon he swells our sins, and cries, "They cannot be forgiv'n." [He bids young sinners "yet forbear To think of God, or death; For prayer and devotion are But melancholy breath." He tells the aged, "they must die, "And 'tis too late to pray; In vain for mercy now they cry, For they have lost their day."] Thus he supports his cruel throne By mischief and deceit, And drags the sons of Adam down To darkness and the pit. Almighty God, cut short his power, Let him in darkness dwell And that he vex the earth no more, Confine him down to hell. Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.156 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Lyrics: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane no more. [Behold the islands with their kings, And Europe her best tribute brings; From north to south the princes meet, To pay their homage at his feet. There Persia, glorious to behold, There India shines in eastern gold; And barb'rous nations at his word Submit, and bow, and own their Lord.] For him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown his head; His name like sweet perfume shall rise With every morning sacrifice. People and realms of every tongue Dwell on his love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on his name. Blessings abound where'er he reigns, The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. [Where he displays his healing power Death and the curse are known no more; In him the tribes of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost. Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honors to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the long Amen.] Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English
