[Psa 39:4] Almighty Maker Of My Frame
Almighty Maker of my frame!
Teach me the measure of my days,
Teach me to know how frail I am,
And spend the remnant in Thy praise.My days are shorter than a span,
A little point my life appears;
How frail at best is dying man!
How vain are all his hopes and fears!Vain his ambition, noise and show;
Vain are the cares which rack his mind;
He heaps up treasures mixed with woe,
And dies and leaves them all behind.O be a nobler portion mine!
My God, I bow before Thy throne;
Earth’s fleeting treasures I resign,
And fix my hope on Thee alone.Play source: Cyberhymnal -
[Psa 39:4] Teach Me The Measure Of My Days
Teach me the measure of my days,
Thou Maker of my frame;
I would survey life’s narrow space,
And learn how frail I am.A span is all that we can boast,
An inch or two of time;
Man is but vanity and dust
In all his flower and prime.See the vain race of mortals move
Like shadows o’er the plain;
They rage and strive, desire and love,
But all the noise is vain.Some walk in honor’s gaudy show,
Some dig for golden ore;
They toil for heirs, they know not who,
And straight are seen no more.What should I wish or wait for, then,
From creatures earth and dust?
They make our expectations vain,
And disappoint our trust.Now I forbid my carnal hope,
My fond desires recall;
I give my mortal interest up,
And make my God my all.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Another year completed,

Now, strong in hope, united
His festival we greet;
He will present our troubles
Before the mercy-seat.The Scriptures tell how Moses
Did for the people pray,
Appeased the Judge eternal,
And turned His wrath away;
Elijah’s prayer had power,
To close and open Heav’n;
Such saints as were aforetime,
Such saints to us are giv’n.O saint of God, belovèd,
And placed on His right hand,
Thy prayers be like a rampart
As ’gainst the foe we stand;
For Abraham’s God is thy God,
And Isaac’s God is thine,
Thine is the God of Jacob,
The Lord of power benign.For forty years His Israel
He fed with angels’ food;
The flinty rock He opened
The streams of water flowed.

May lead to victory:

The Lord thy God is He.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

Lord, unloose my stammering tongue,
Who should louder sing than I.Did the Lord a man become
That He might the law fulfill,
Bleed and suffer in my room,
And canst thou, my tongue, be still?No, I must my praises bring,
Though they worthless are, and weak;
For should I refuse to sing
Sure the very stones would speak.O my Savior, Shield, and Sun,

A wretched wanderer from my Lord?
Can this dark world of sin and woe
One glimpse of happiness afford?Eternal life Thy words impart;
On these my fainting spirit lives;
Here sweeter comforts cheer my heart
Than all the round of nature gives.Let earth’s alluring joys combine,
While Thou art near, in vain they call;

For countless gifts received;
And pray for grace to keep the faith
Which saints of old believed.To Thee we come, O gracious Lord,
The newborn year to bless;
Defend our land from pestilence,
Give peace and plenteousness.Forgive this nation’s many sins,
The growth of vice restrain;
And help us all with sin to strive,
And crowns of life to gain.From evil deeds that stain the past
We now desire to flee;
And pray that future years may all
Be spent, good Lord, for Thee.O Father, let Thy watchful eye
Still look on us in love,

[Psa 90:10] And Am I Only Born To Die?
And am I only born to die?
And must I suddenly comply
With nature’s stern decree?
What after death for me remains?
Celestial joys, or hellish pains,
To all eternity?How then ought I on earth to live,
While God prolongs the kind reprieve
And props the house of clay?
My sole concern, my single care,
To watch, and tremble, and prepare
Against the fatal day.No room for mirth or trifling here,
For worldly hope, or worldly fear,
If life so soon is gone:
If now the Judge is at the door,
And all mankind must stand before
The inexorable throne!No matter which my thoughts employ,
A moment’s misery, or joy;
But O! when both shall end,
Where shall I find my destined place?
Shall I my everlasting days
With fiends, or angels spend?Nothing is worth a thought beneath
But how I may escape the death
That never, never dies;
How make mine own election sure,
And, when I fail on earth, secure
A mansion in the skies.Jesus, vouchsafe a pitying ray,
Be Thou my guide, be Thou my way
To glorious happiness;
Ah, write the pardon on my heart,
And whensoe’er I hence depart,
Let me depart in peace.Play source: Cyberhymnal -

And let this feeble body fail,
And let it droop and die;
My soul shall quit the mournful vale,
And soar to worlds on high;
Shall join the disembodied saints,
And find its long sought rest,
That only bliss for which it pants,
In my Redeemer’s breast.In hope of that immortal crown
I now the cross sustain,
And gladly wander up and down,
And smile at toil and pain:
I suffer out my threescore years,
Till my Deliverer come,
And wipe away His servant’s tears,
And take His exile home.O what hath Jesus bought for me!
Before my ravished eyes
Rivers of life divine I see,
And trees of paradise:
I see a world of spirits bright,
Who taste the pleasures there;
They all are robed in spotless white,
And conquering palms they bear.O what are all my sufferings here,
If, Lord, Thou count me meet
With that enraptured host to appear,
And worship at Thy feet!

Take life or friends away,
But let me find them all again

[Psa 90:10] All Men Living Are But Mortal
All men living are but mortal,
Yea, all flesh must fade as grass;
Only through death’s gloomy portal
To eternal life we pass.
This frail body here must perish
Ere the heav’nly love joys it cherish,
Ere it gain the free reward
For the ransomed of the Lord.Therefore, when my God doth choose it,
Willingly I’ll yield my life
Nor will grieve that I should lose it,
For with sorrows it was rife.
In my dear Redeemer’s merit
Peace hath found my troubled spirit,
And in death my comfort this:
Jesus’ death my source of bliss.Jesus for my sake descended
My salvation to obtain;
Death and hell for me are ended,
Peace and hope are now my gain;
Yea, with joy I leave earth’s sadness
For the home of heav’nly gladness,
Where I shall forever see
God, the Holy Trinity.There is joy beyond our telling,
Where so many saints have gone;
Thousands, thousands, there are dwelling,
Worshiping before the throne,
There the seraphim are shining,
Evermore in chorus joining:
“Holy, holy, holy Lord!
Triune God, for aye adored!”Patriarchs of sacred story
And the prophets there are found;
The apostles, too, in glory
On twelve seats are there enthroned,
All the saints that have ascended
Age on age, through time extended,
There in blissful concert sing
Hallelujahs to their King.O Jerusalem, how glorious
Dost thou shine, thou city fair!
Lo, I hear the tone victorious
Ever sweetly sounding there.
Oh, the bliss that there surprises!
Lo, the sun of morn now rises,
And the breaking day I see
That shall never end for me.Yea, I see what here was told me,
See that wondrous glory shine,
Feel the spotless robes enfold me,
Know a golden crown is mine,
Thus before the throne so glorious
Now I stand a soul victorious,
Gazing on that joy for aye
That shall never pass away.Play source: Cyberhymnal

Make haste, O man, to live,
For thou so soon must die;
Time hurries past thee like the breeze;
How swift its moments fly!To breathe, and wake, and sleep,
To smile, to sigh, to grieve;
To move in idleness through earth,
This, this is not to live!Up, then, with speed, and work;
Fling ease and self away;
This is no time for thee to sleep,
Up, watch, and work, and pray!The useful, not the great,
The thing that never dies,
The silent toil that is not lost—
Set these before thine eyes.The seed, whose leaf and flower,
Though poor in human sight,
Bring forth at last th’eternal fruit,
Sow thou by day and night.Make haste, O man, to live,
Thy time is almost o’er;

And bade us awake and pray.Awake, awake, good people all,
Awake, and you shall hear,
The Lord our God died on the cross
For us He loved so dear.O fair, O fair Jerusalem,
When shall I come to thee?
When shall my sorrows have an end,
Thy joy that I may see?The fields were green as green could be,
When from His glorious seat,
Our blessèd Father watered us,
With His heavenly dew so sweet.And for the saving of our souls
Christ died upon the cross;
We ne’er shall do for Jesus Christ
As He hath done for us.The life of man is but a span,
And cut down in its flower,
We’re here today, tomorrow gone,
The creatures of an hour.Instruct and teach your children well,
The while that you are here;
It will be better for your soul,
When your corpse lies on the bier.Today you may be alive and well,
Worth many a thousand pound;
Tomorrow dead and cold as clay,
Your corpse laid underground.With one turf at thine head, O man,
And another at thy feet;
Thy good deeds and thy bad, O man,
Will altogether meet.My song is done, I must be gone,
I can stay no longer here;
God bless you all, both great and small,
And send you a joyful new year!Play source: Cyberhymnal -

A dream that will not stay;
Death cometh in a moment,
And taketh all away.O Christ, a light transcendent
Shines in Thy countenance,
And none can tell the sweetness,
The beauty of Thy glance.In this may Thy poor servant
His joy eternal find;

Nearing the soul’s bright land.We are drifting from the sorrows
That for us will soon be o’er;
We are drifting from the trials
That will vex the heart no more.Refrain
We are drifting from the shadows
Into pure and perfect day;
’Tis the Savior guides our vessel,
And His presence cheers our way.Refrain
Oh, the morning and the meeting,
When our happy souls shall rest,
By the fount of life eternal,
With the ransomed ever blest.Refrain

[Rom 13:12] Night Is Far Spent, The
The night is far spent, the day is at hand;
Already the dawn may be seen in the sky;
Rejoice then, ye saints, ’tis your Lord’s own command;
Rejoice, for the coming of Jesus draws nigh.How bright it will be, when Jesus appears!
How welcome to those who have shared in His cross!
A crown incorruptible then will be theirs,
A rich compensation for suffering and loss.Affliction is light compared to the day
Of glory that then will from Heaven be revealed!
“The Savior is coming,” His people may say,
“The Lord whom we look for, our Sun and our Shield.”O pardon us, Lord, that love to Thy Name
Is faint, with so much our affections to move!
Our deadness shall fill us with grief and with shame,
So much to be loved and so little to love!O kindle within us holy desire,
Like that which was found in Thy people of old!
Who felt all Thy love, and whose hearts were on fire,
While waiting in patience Thy face to behold!Play source: Cyberhymnal
Hebrews 13:13-14
-
[Heb 13:14] Brief Life Is Here Our Portion
Brief life is here our portion;
Brief sorrow, short lived care;
The life that knows no ending,
The tearless life, is there.O happy retribution!
Short toil, eternal rest;
For mortals and for sinners
A mansion with the blest!And martyrdom hath roses
Upon that heavenly ground,
And white and virgin lilies
For virgin-souls abound.There grief is turned to pleasure;
Such pleasure as below
No human voice can utter,
No human heart can know.And after fleshly weakness,
And after this world’s night,
And after storm and whirlwind,
Are calm, and joy, and light.And now we fight the battle,
But then shall wear the crown
Of full and everlasting
And passionless renown.And He, whom now we trust in,
Shall then be seen and known;
And they that know and see Him
Shall have Him for their own.And now we watch and struggle,
And now we live in hope,
And Zion in her anguish
With Babylon must cope.But there is David’s fountain,
And life in fullest glow;
And there the light is golden,
And milk and honey flow.The morning shall awaken,
The shadows flee away,
And each true hearted servant
Shall shine as doth the day.There God, our King and Portion,
In fullness of His grace,
We then shall see forever,
And worship face to face.O sweet and blessèd country,
The home of God’s elect!
O sweet and blessèd country,
That eager hearts expect!Jesu, in mercy bring us,
To that dear land of rest;
Who art, with God the Father,
And Spirit, ever blest.Play source: Cyberhymnal
Hebrews 4:7
-
[Heb 4:7] Far From God, Away From Jesus
Far from God, away from Jesus,
Straying in the paths of sin,
Knowing not God’s full salvation,
Jesus calls you midst earth’s din.Refrain
Come, ’tis Jesus calls you;
Come, without delay.
He is willing now to save you;
Come, O come today.Why continue in your roaming?
Jesus bids you come today.
Mercy’s offer still is open;
Why not come without delay?Refrain
How much longer will you tarry?
How much longer will you roam?
Listen, Jesus calls you to Him;
Will you not at once come home?Refrain
Can you stay away from Jesus
With eternity in view?
Can you still reject His mercy
When you hear His call so true?Refrain
You may almost come to Jesus,
But “almost” will never save;
For the soul that “fully” trusts Him
On the cross His life He gave.Refrain

Waiting today, waiting today,
Come with your sins, at His feet lowly bow;
Come, and no longer delay.Refrain

Hear Him today, hear Him today,
They who believe on His Name shall rejoice;
Quickly arise and away.Refrain
