HYMN 340. C. M. Dedham. [b] 10 Watchfulness.

[* or b] 1A CHARGE to keep I have, A God to glorify; A never-dying soul to save, 2 To serve the present age, 3 Arm me with jealous care, 4 Help me to watch and pray, Assured if I my trust betray, I shall for ever die. HYMN 343. S. M. WESLEY. Olmutz. [*] Watch and pray. Matt. xxvi, 41. 1 MY soul, be on thy guard, Ten thousand foes arise: And hosts of sins are pressing hard, To draw thee from the skies. 2 Oh! watch, and fight, and pray, The battle ne'er give o'er; Renew it boldly every day, And help divine implore. 3 Ne'er think the victory won, The arduous work will not be done, Till thou hast got thy crown. HYMN 344. C. M. HEATH. Windsor. [b] Indwelling Sin lamented. ITH tears of anguish I lament, My passion, pride, and discontent, 2 Sure there was ne'er a heart so base, So false as mine has been, So faithless to its promises, So prone to every sin. 3 My reason tells me thy commands Are holy, just, and true, SELECT. 18 Tells me whate'er my God demands, P Is his most righteous due. 4 Reason I hear, her counsels weigh, But still I find it hard t' obey, 5 How long, dear Saviour, shall I feel STENNETT. HYMN 345. 7s. Calvary. [b] All my inmost sins reveal, Sins against thy light and love 2 Jesus, seek thy wandering sheep, Bid me look on thee, and weep, "Now, thou know'st I love thee, Lord." 3 O remember me for good, Passing through the mortal vale; Show me the atoning blood, When my strength and spirit fail; Give my fainting soul to see Jesus crucified for me. WESLEY'S COL. HYMN 346. L. P. M. St. Helen's. [b] 1 For Power over Sin. THEN shall I hear the inward voice, W which only faithful souls can hear?

[b] p 1 THE The Contrite Heart. HE Lord will happiness divine 2 I hear, but seem to hear in vain, If aught is felt, 'tis only pain -3 I sometimes think myself inclined But often feel another mind My best desires are faint and few; -5 Thy saints are comforted, I know, I therefore go where others go, 6 Oh! make this heart rejoice or ache; Decide this doubt for me; And if it be not broken, break, And heal it, if it be. COWPER. HYMN 348. C. M. Poland. [b] For a Contrite Heart. FOR that tenderness of heart, 2 O for those humble, contrite tears, 3 Saviour, to me, in pity, give The sensible distress; The pledge thou wilt at last receive, And bid me die in peace ; g 4 Wilt from the dreadful day remove, My spirit hide with saints above, C. WESLEY. |
