By law from Sinai's clouded steep
Thankless For Favors From On High
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thankless for favors from on high,
Man thinks he fades too soon:
Though ’tis his privilege to die,
Would he improve the boon.
2 But he, not wise enough to scan
His best concerns aright,
Would gladly stretch life’s little span
To ages, if he might.
3 To ages in a world of pain,
To ages, where he goes
Galled by affliction’s heavy chain,
And hopeless of repose.
4 Strange fondness of the human heart,
Enamored of its harm!
Strange world, that costs it so much smart,
And still has power to charm.
5 Whence has the world her magic power?
Why deem we death a foe?
Recoil from weary life’s last hour,
And covet longer woe?
6 The cause is conscience: conscience oft
Her tale of guilt renews;
Her voice is terrible, though soft,
And dread of death ensues.
7 Then, anxious to be longer spared,
Man mourns his fleeting breath;
All evils then seem light compared
With the approach of death.
8 ’Tis judgment shakes him: there’s the fear
That prompts his wish to stay;
He has incurred a long arrear,
And must despair to pay.
9 Pay! Follow Christ, and all is paid:
His death your peace ensures;
Think on the grave where He was laid,
And calm descend to yours. Used With Tune: SOHO

The Lord Will Happiness Divine
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 125 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The Lord will happiness divine
On contrite hearts bestow;
Then tell me, gracious God, is mine
A contrite heart or no?
2. I hear, but seem to hear in vain,
Insensible as steel;
If aught is felt, ’tis only pain,
To find I cannot feel.
3. I sometimes think myself inclined
To love Thee if I could;
But often feel another mind,
Averse to all that’s good.
4. My best desires are faint and few,
I fain would strive for more;
But when I cry, My strength renew!
Seem weaker than before.
5. Thy saints are comforted, I know,
And love Thy house of prayer;
I therefore go where others go,
But find no comfort there.
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. Used With Tune: SOHO Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779), number 64

Fill Thou my life, O Lord my God
To Thee, Before The Dawning Light
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 77 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To Thee, before the dawning light
My gracious God, I pray;
I meditate Thy name by night,
And keep Thy law by day.
2 My spirit faints to see Thy grace,
Thy promise bears me up;
And while salvation long delays,
Thy Word supports my hope.
3 Seven times a day I lift my hands,
And pay my thanks to Thee;
Thy righteous providence demands
Repeated praise from me.
4 When midnight darkness veils the skies,
I call Thy works to mind;
My thoughts in warm devotion rise,
And sweet acceptance find. Used With Tune: SOHO Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
To Thee, Before The Dawning Light
