90. S. M. Relief Hymns.

'Tis God that worketh in you.
'T
VIS God the Spirit leads

In paths before unknown;
The work to be perform’d is ours,

The strength is all his own. 2 'Tis he that works to will,

"Tis he that works to do;
His is the power by which we act,

His be the glory too.

91. C. M. Watts. The witnessing and sealing Spirit. Rom. viii. 14

Why should the children of a King
Great Comforter! descend, and bring

Some tokens of thy grace.
2 Dost thou not dwell in all the saints,

And scal the heirs of heaven?
When wilt thou banish my complaints,

And show my sins forgiven?
3 Assure my conscience of her part

In the Redeemer's blood;
And bear thy witness with my heart,

That I am born of God.
4 Thou art the earnest of his love,

The pledge of joys to come;
And thy soft wings, celestial Dove,

Will safe convey me home.

92 C. M. Watts.

Regeneration. John jii. 3.
THE Spirit, like some heavenly wind,
New models all the carnal mind,

And forms the man afresh.

2 Our quicken'd souls awake, and rise,

From the long sleep of death; On heavenly things we fix our eyes, And praise employs our breath.

93. C. M. Doddridge. Divine Drawings Celebrated. Hos. xi.' 4. MY

Y God, what silken cords are thine!

How soft, and yet so strong! While power, and truth, and love combine

To draw our souls along. 2 Thou sawest us crush'd beneath the yoke

Of Satan and of sin;
Thy hand the iron bondage broke,

Our worthless hearts to win.
3 The guilt of twice ten thousand sins

One moment takes away; And grace, when first the

war begins,
Secures the crowning day.
4 Comfort, through all this vale of tears,

In rich profusion flows,
And glory of unnumber'd years

Eternity bestows. 5 Drawn by such cords, we onward move,

Till round thy throne we meet;
And captives in the chains of love,
Embrace our Conqueror's feet.
94. C. M. Whitefield's Collection.

Blow on the drooping field ;
Our spices then shall breathe perfume,
And fragrant incense yield.

And God, our God, resorts.

Soften to flesh the flinty stone,

And let thy Godlike power be known. 20 let a holy flock await,

Numerous around thy temple-gate!

Give us to see thy church arise;
Or, if that blessing be too great,
Give us to mourn its low estate.

96. S. M. C. Psalmody.
The Holy Spirit implored.

And make us taste those, sweets below,
Which in the blissful mansions grow.
