But few among the carnal Wise

Hymnal: PDIL1766 #I.XCVI (1766) Lyrics: 1 But few among the carnal Wise, But few of noble Race, Obtain the Favour of thine Eyes, Almighty King of Grace. 2 He takes the Men of meanest Name, For Sons and Heirs of God; And thus he pours abundant Shame On honorable Blood. 3 He calls the Fool, and makes him know The Myst'ries of his Grace, To bring aspiring Wisdom low, And all its Pride abase. 4 Nature has all its Glories lost, When brought before his Throne; No Flesh shall in his Presence boast, But in the Lord alone.

Bury'd in Shadows of the Night

Hymnal: PDIL1766 #I.XCVII (1766) Lyrics: 1 Bury'd in Shadows of the Night, We lie till Christ restores the Light; Wisdom descends to heal the Blind, And chase the Darkness of the Mind. 2 Our guilty Souls are drown'd in Tears Till thy atoning Blood appears; Then we awake from deep Distress, And sing, The Lord our Righteousness. 3 Our very Frame is mix'd with Sin, His Spirit makes our Natures clean; Such Virtues from his Suff'rings flow, At once to cleanse and pardon too. 4 Jesus beholds where Satan reigns, Binding his Slaves in heavy Chains; He sets the Prisoners free, and breaks The Iron Bondage from our Necks. 5 Poor helpless Worms in Thee possess Grace, Wisdom, Pow'r and Righteousness; Thou art our mighty All, and we Give our whole selves, O Lord, to Thee.

How heavy is the Night
