A. 8. When Others fell, we faithful prov'd,
His Love preferv'd us true:

M. Yet own that We are more belov'd,
He never died for you.

A. 9. Worms of the Earth, to you, we own,
The Nobler Grace is given :

M. Then praise with Us the Great Three-One, Till We all meet in Heaven.

1.

ANOTHER.

TO Father, Son, and Holy Ghost

Glory above be given:

We'll vie with the Celestial Hoft,
And Earth fhall rival Heaven.

2. Ye Angels, that in Strength excel,
To GOD your Voices raise;
In Tenements of Clay we dwell,
Yet humbly chaunt His Praise.

3. To Him Ye Hallelujah cry
Loud as the Thunder's Noife;
As many Waters we reply,

And eccho back the Voice.

4. Ten Thousand Times ten Thoufand, fing

Ye

your Creator's Name;

We claim Jehovah for our King,

And We extol the Lamb.

5. Ye caft your Crowns before His Throne, And dare no longer gaze;

We proftrate at His Footftool own

The Wonders of His Grace.

6. Thus let us All forever lie,
In Songs, or Silence join,
T'adore the Majefty on high,.
The Depth of Love Divine.

Pfalm cxxxiii.

EHOLD how good a Thing

B It is to dwell in Peace,

How pleafing to our King
This Fruit of Righteoutnefs,

When Brethren all in One agree;
Who knows the Joys of Unity!

2. When All are fweetly join'd,
(True Followers of the Lamb,
The fame in Heart and Mind,)
And think and fpeak the fame,
And All in Love together dwell;
The Comfort is unfpeakable.

3. Where Unity takes Place,

The Joys of Heaven we prove :
This is the Gofpel-Grace,

The Unction from above,
The Spirit on all Believers shed,

Defcending swift from CHRIST our Head

4. Where Unity is found,

The sweet anointing Grace
Extends to All around,

And overfpreads the Place;

To every waiting Soul it cc nes,
And fills it with Divine Perfumes.

5. JESUS, our Great High-Prieft,

For Us the Gift receiv'd,

For Us, and All the reft,

Who have in Him believ'd;

Forth from our Head the Bleffing goes, And all His feamless Coat o'erflows.

6. On All His Chofen Ones

The pretious Oil comes down;

It runs, and as it runs,

It ever will run on,

Ev'n to His Skirts-the Meanest Name That longs to love the Bleeding Lamb.

7.

From Aaron's Beard it rolls
(Those nearest to His Face)
To humble, trembling Souls
Who feebly fue for Grace:
I know the Grace for All is free,
For lo! it reaches now to me.

[blocks in formation]

And every Night we feel
The foft, refreshing Dew,

That falls from Hermon's Hill

On Sion it doth sweetly fall,
The Grace of One defcends on All.

9.

Ev'n now our LORD doth pour

The Bleffing from above,

A kindly, gracious Shower

Of Heart-reviving Love,

The former and the latter Rain,

The Love of God, and Love of Man

Io. In Him when Brethren join,
And follow after Peace,

The Fellowship Divine
He promises to blefs,

His chiefeft Graces to beftow,

Where Two or Three are met below.

11. The Riches of His Grace

In Fellowship are given,

To Sion's chofen Race,

The Citizens of Heaven;

He fills them with His choiceft Store,

He gives them Life for evermore.

1.

DAVID and GOLIAH.

W

HO is this Gigantick Foe,
That proudly stalks along;

Overlooks the Croud below
In brafen Armour strong?
Loudly of his Strength he boafts,
On his Sword and Spear relres,
Meets the GOD of Ifrael's Hofts,
And all their Force defies.

2. Talleft of the Earth-born Race
They tremble at his Power,
Fly before the Monster's Face,
And own him Conqueror:
Who this mighty Champion is,
Nature answers from within,
He is My own Wickedness,
My own Befetting Sin.

3. In the Strength of JESU's Name,
I with the Monfter fight,

Feeble and unarm'd I am,

But JESUS is my Might:-
Mindful of His Mercies paft,
Still I truft the fame to prove,
Still my helpless Soul I caft,
On His Redeeming Love..

4. From the Bear and Lion's Paws
He hath deliver'd me;

He fhall ftill maintain my Caufe,
And ftill my Helper be;
GOD in my Defence shall stand,.
JESUS on my Side I have,
From the proud Goliah's Hand,
He now my Soul fhall fave.

5. With

5. With my Soing and Stone I go
To Slay the Philistine ;
GOD hath faid, It shall be so,
And I fhall conquer Sin :
On the Promise I rely,

Truft in an Almighty LORD,
Sure to win the Victory,

For He hath spoke the Word.

6. In the Strength of God I rife,
I run to meet my Foe;

Faith the Word of Power applies,
And lays the Giant low:
Faith in JESU's Conquering Name
Slings the Sin-deftroying Stone,
Points the Word's unerring Aim,
And brings the Monster down.

7. See the Promife-Word takes place,
And fmites the Giant's Head,
See, he falls upon his Face,

He falls, and Sin is dead! Now I more than conquer it, Trample on Goliah flain: Slain he lies beneath my Feet, Never to rife again.

8. Willing now to be made free

From my own Sin I am, Sav'd from all Iniquity,

From every Touch of Blame : Thou haft made me willing, LORD, Thou alone haft turn'd my Heart,

Now I with Goliah's Sword

His Head and Body part.

9. Sin, my ftrongest Sin is dead, Goliah is o'erthrown;

Yes; he now has loft his Head ;.

The Love of Sin is

gone:
