1. WHEN I survey the wond'rous Cross On which the Prince of Glory died, And pour contempt on all my pride. 2. Forbid it, Lord, that I should boast, Save in the Cross of Christ, my God: I quit them all for Jesus' blood. Sorrow and love flow mingled down : Or thorns compose so rich a crown? 4. Were the whole realm of nature mine, That were an off'ring far too small : Demands my life, my soul, my all. : WATTS. PSALM CLXVI. My grateful pow'rs shall sound Thy praise; And echo to the silent night. And sorrows tear my throbbing breast, Shall check the murmur and the sigh. 3. And oh, when my last conflict's o'er, And I am chain'd to flesh no more, To join the music of the skies! T'hat echo o'er the heav'nly plains, The glowing seraphs round Thy throne.) 6. The cheerful tribute will I give Long as a deathless soul can live; DODDRIDGE. 1. JESUS shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run ; 2. To Him shall endless prayer be made, And princes throng to crown His head; With every morning sacrifice. Dwell on His love with sweetest song; Their early blessings on His name. The pris’ner leaps to lose his chains, 5. Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honours to our King; WATTS., 1. ARM of the Lord, awake, awake! Thine own immortal strength put on ! And cast Thy foes with fury down! 2. As the ancient days appear ! The sacred annals speak Thy fame : To endless ages still the same. To Thee the ransom'd seed shall come; C. WESLEY, |
