Hail, great Creator! wise and good.
Happy is he whose early years
Happy the man whose wishes climb
Hark! the glad sound! the Savoiur comes,
Hasten, sinner! to be wise;
*Hear, O ye dead! awake, arise!

He dies, the friend of sinners dies;
High in the heavens, eternal God!

Hope of the wretched! thou alone

How rich thy favours, God of grace!
How shall I praise the eternal God,
If love with other graces reign,
If solid happiness we prize,
*If we the Saviour's laws obey
I'll bless Jehovah's glorious name
Immortal God! on thee we call,
Imposture shrinks from light,
In all my vast concerns with thee,
In all thy dealings, gracious God!
Indulgent Father! how divine,
Indulgent God! whose bounteous care
Indulgent God! with pitying eye
In glad amazement, Lord! I stand

Lord! thou art good: all nature shews
Lord! thou hast been thy children's God
Lord! thou hast search'd and seen me thro';
Lord! we adore thy wondrous name,
Lord! through the dubious paths of life
Lord while my thoughts with wonder trace
Mark how the swift-wing'd minutes fly
Mark the soft-falling snow,
Must friends and kindred droop and die,
My God! how endless is thy love!
My God! my Father!-cheering name-
My God! my King! Oh may thy praise
My God! permit me not to be
My God! permit my tongue
My God! thy boundless love I praise
My God! thy service well demands
My gracious God! accept my prayer:
My Helper, God! I bless thy name!
My Maker and my King!

My soul shall praise thee, O my God!

O bless the Lord, my soul

Oh for a firm and lively faith,
Oh that the Lord would guide my ways,
Parent of good! thy gospel's power
Peace, my complaining, doubting heart,
Perpetual Source of light and grace
Praise, everlasting praise, be paid
Praise to God, immortal praise,
Praise to God, the great Creator,
Praise to thee, thou great Creator,
Praise ye the Lord: 'tis good to raise..
Raise your triumphant songs
Raise your voice and joyful sing
Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord:
Religion's path they never trod.
Remark, my soul, the narrow bounds
Salvation! O the joyful sound,
* See from on high a light divine
See how he loved!' exclaim'd the Jews,
