Salvation, oh! The joyful sound -- Ye nations round the earth rejoice -- Sweet is the work, my God my King -- Come children, learn to fear the Lord -- Blow ye the trumpet, blow -- In God's own house pronounce His praise -- O come, loud anthems let us sing -- Look from on high, great God, and see, Thy saints lamenting after Thee -- Once more my soul the rising day -- Broad is the road that leads to death -- Show pity, Lord, O Lord forgive -- Look what is man, poor feeble man -- The Lord my Shepherd is -- Why do we mourn departing friends? -- Return, O God of love return -- Come humble sinner, in whose breast a thousand thoughts revolve -- Hail sov'reign love, that first began -- Teach me the measure of my days -- Arise my tender thoughts arise -- With cheerful notes let all the earth -- My Saviour and my King -- Death, what a solemn word to all! -- Why do we mourn departing friends -- Hark, it is wisdom's voice -- Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing -- Sweet is the day of sacred rest -- How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord -- O Thou whose presence my soul takes delight -- On Jordan's stormy banks I stand -- Oh when shall I see Jesus -- Who should vain mortals tremble at the sight of death and destruction -- Lo what an entertaining sight -- Behold the man of three score and ten -- My God, my life, my love -- Let Zion and her sons rejoice -- Thus saith the mercy of the Lord -- In vain the healthy mortals toil -- 'Twas on that dark, that doleful night -- Awake, my heart, arise my tongue -- Thy words the raging winds control -- Before the rosy dawn of day -- With joy the people stand -- Father, I long, I faint to see -- With rev'rence let the saints appear -- How condescending and how kind -- O sleep nor slumber to his eyes -- O, were I like a feathered dove -- Death! 'tis a melancholy day -- Death, like an overflowing stream -- He dies! The friend of sinners dies! -- This life's a dream, an empty show -- Forbear, my friends, forbear, and ask no more -- When I can read my title clear -- Come ye that love the Lord -- My soul repent His praise -- Come Thou fount of ev'ry blessing -- On the fair heav'nly hills -- Come, Thou Almighty King -- His hoary frost, His fleecy snow -- How does my heart rejoice -- How tedious and tasteless the hours -- False are the men of high degree -- With inward pain my heart strings sound -- While beauty and youth are in their full prime -- Glorious things of Thee are spoken -- Come, O! Thou traveler unknown -- The day is pass'd and gone -- Thy mercy my God is the theme of my song -- Tho' all the world below -- Awak'd by Sinai's awful sound -- And let this feeble body fail -- Behold the lep'rous Jew -- 'Twas on that dark, that doleful night -- Praise to the Lord of boundless might -- So fades the lovely blooming flow'r -- From all who dwell below the skies -- Thou we adore eternal name -- This spacious earth is all the Lord's -- Agonizing in the garden -- How long, dear Saviour -- Hark! From the tombs a doleful sound -- O Thou in whose presence my soul takes delight -- Grace! 'tis a charming sound -- Of tyranny we mourn -- My God, how many are my fears. |

'Tis night and the landscape is lovely no more -- My soul forsakes not vain delight -- In vain we lavish out our lives -- See the leaves ye falling -- This spacious earth is all the Lord's -- Stoop down my thoughts that used to rise -- Our souls by love together knit -- Sacred to heav'n behold the dome appears -- The morning sun shines from the east -- Vain, delusive world adieu -- Hail! Columbia, happy land -- God of my life, whose bounteous care -- When God reveal'd His gracious name -- I cannot bear Thine absence, Lord -- I love Thee my Saviour -- Come all ye mourning pilgrims dear -- Through ev'ry age eternal God -- When in death I shall calm recline -- Come friends and relations let's join heart and hand -- I'm tir'd of visits modes and forms -- Bright scenes of glory strike my sense -- That awful day will surely come -- Vital spark of heav'nly flame -- Cease fond nature -- Before Jehovah's awful throne -- David the King was grieved and moved -- The Lord is ris'n indeed! -- Hark, hark, hark, ye mortals hear the trumpet -- I heard a great voice from heav'n saying unto me -- I am the rose of Sharon -- Behold! Behold the wretch whose lust and wine -- I behold, and lo a great multitude which no man could number -- Our Lord is risen from the dead -- Vital spark of heav'nly flame -- There is a house not made with hands -- He leads me to the place, where heav'nly pastures grow -- Grace 'tis a charming sound -- Thy name, Almighty Lord -- Sweet to rejoice in lively hope -- The Lord of glory is my light -- Now shall my head be lifted high -- Awake, my soul, arise my tongue -- O render thanks and bless the Lord -- Come let us join our cheerful songs -- My God, the spring of all my joys -- The heav'ns declare Thy glory Lord -- The King of Saints how fair His face -- With all my pow'r of heart and tongue -- Come hither all ye weary souls -- Now to the Lord a noble song -- From all that dwell below the skies -- Now we'd all with grateful spirits -- Great God, the heav'ns well order'd frame -- Glory to God on high -- Begin my soul th' exalted lay -- Great God, we sing Thy mighty hand -- Children of the heav'nly King -- Guide me O Thou great Jehovah -- O praise the Lord in that blest place -- Beyond, beyond the glitt'ring starry skies -- From Greenland's icy mountains -- All things fair and bright are Thine -- There's nothing true but heav'n -- Blessed be the Lord forevermore. |
