Let every mortal ear attend

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #LXIV (1789) Lyrics: 1 Let every mortal ear attend, And every heart rejoice; The trumpet of the gospel sounds With an inviting voice. 2 Ho! all ye weary wand'ring souls That feed upon the wind, And vainly strive with earthly toys To fill an empty mind. 3 Eternal wisdom has prepar'd A soul-reviving feast, And bids your longing appetites The rich provision taste. 4 Ho! ye that pant for living streams, And pine away and die; Here you may quench your raging thirst With springs that never dry. 5 Rivers of love and mercy here In a rich ocean join; Salvation in abundance flows, Like floods of milk and wine. 6 The happy gates of gospel grace Stand open night and day: Lord, we are come to seek supplies, And drive our wants away.

Let e'ery tongue thy goodness speak

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #LII (1789) Lyrics: 1 Let ev’ry tongue Tthy goodness speak, Thou sov'reign Lord of all! Thy strength’ning hands uphold the weak, And raise the poor that fall. 2 When sorrow bows the spirit down, When virtue lies distrest Beneath the proud oppressor’s frown, Thou giv’st the mourners rest. 3 Thy grace supports our tott'ring days, And guides our giddy youth: Holy and just are all thy ways, And all thy words are truth. 4 Thou know’st the pains thy servants feel; He hear’st thy children cry, And, their best wishes to fulfil, Thy grace is ever nigh. 5 Thy mercy never shall remove From men of heart sincere, To save the souls, whose humble love Is join'd with holy fear.

Let party strife no more

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #CXXII (1789) Lyrics: 1 Let party strife no more The Christian world o'erspread; Gentile and Jew, and Bond and Free Are one in Christ their head. 2 Among the saints on earth, Let mutual love be found; Heirs of the same inheritance, With mutual blessings crown'd. 3 Let discord, child of hell, Be banished far away; Those should in strictest friendship dwell, Who the same Lord obey. 4 Thus will the Church below Resemble that above, Where streams of pleasure ever flow, And ev'ry heart is love.

Lift your voice, and thankful sing

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #XXII (1789) Lyrics: 1 Lift your voice, and thankful sing Praises to our Heavenly King. Be the Lord our only theme, Who of Gods is God supreme; For his blessings far extend, And his mercy knows no end. 2 He asserts his just command, By the wonders of his hand, He whose wisdom thron'd on high, built the mansions of the sky; For his blessings far extend, And his mercy knows no end. 3 He who bade the watery deep, Under earth's foundation sleep; And the orbs that gild the pole, Through the boundless ether roll; For his blessings far extend, And his mercy knows no end. 4 Thou, O sun, whose powerful ray Rules the empire of the day; You, O moon and stars, whose light Gilds the darkness of the night: For his blessings far extend, And his mercy knows no end. 5 He with food sustains, O earth, All who claim from thee their birth; Yield the homage that his name From a creature's lips may claim; For his blessings far extend, And his mercy knows no end.

Lo God is here! let us adore

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #LXXV (1789) Lyrics: 1 Lo God is here! let us adore, And humbly bow before his face, Let all within us feel his power, Let all within us seek his grace; Who knows his power, his grace who prove, Serve him with awe, with reverence love. 2 Being of beings, may our praise Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill, Still may we stand before thy face, Still hear and do thy sovereign will; To thee may all our thoughts arise An acceptable sacrifice. 3 In thee we move, all things of thee Are full, thou source and life of all, Thou vast unfathomable sea, On thee the God of love we call, Thou art the God, thou art the Lord, Be thou by all thy works ador'd.

Lo my Shepherd's hand divine!

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #XXXVI (1789) Lyrics: 1 Lo, my Shepherd’s hand divine! Want shall never more be mine; In a pasture fair and large He shall feed his happy charge, 2 When I faint with summer’s heat, He shall lead my weary feet To the streams that, still and slow, Thro' the verdant meadow flow: 3 He my soul anew will frame, And his mercy to proclaim, When thro' devious paths I stray, Teach my steps the better way. 4 Thro' the dreary vale I tread, By the shades of death o’erspread, I shall walk from terror free, While protected, Lord, by thee.

Lo what a feeble frame is ours!

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #CXXXIV (1789) Lyrics: 1 Lo what a feeble frame is ours! How vain a thing is man! How frail are all our boasted pow'rs! And short at best our span! 2 Swift as the feather'd arrow flies, And cuts the yielding air; Or as a kindling meteor dies, Ere it can well appear: 3 So pass our fleeting years away, And time runs on its race; In vain we ask a moment's stay, Nor will it slack its pace. 4 O make us truly wise to learn How very frail we are; That we may mind our grand concern, And for our death prepare.

Lo, what an entertaining sight

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #CXXVI (1789) Lyrics: 1 Lo, what an entertaining sight Are kindred who agree! How blest the house, where hearts unite In bands of piety! 2 When streams of love, from heav'nly springs, Descend on every soul; And sacred peace, with balmy wings, Shades and bedews the whole! 3 All in their proper stations move, And each fulfils his part, In all the cares of life and love, With sympathizing heart. 4 Their souls are form'd for joy and peace, Their hearts and hopes are one; And kind desires, to serve and pleas, Thro' all their actions run. 5 How happy is the pious house, Where zeal and friendship meet, Where songs of praise, and mingled vows, Make the communion sweet! 6 Such pleasure crowns the heav'nly hills; Thus saints are blest above; Where joy like morning dew distils, And all the air is love.

Lord! for the just thou dost provide

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #XLV (1789) Lyrics: 1 Lord! for the just thou dost provide; Thou art their sure defence: Eternal Wisdom is their guide; Their help Omnipotence. 2 Though they through foreign lands should roam And breathe the tainted air In burning climates, far from home, Yet thou, their God, art there. 3 Thy goodness sweetens ev'ry soil, Makes ev'ry country please; Thou on the snowy hills dost smile, And smooth'st the rugged seas. 4 When waves on waves, to heav'n uprear'd, Defy'd the pilot's art; When terror in each face appear'd, And sorrow in each heart; 5 To thee I rais'd my humble pray'r To snatch me from the grave; I found "thine ear not slow to hear, "Nor short thine arm to save." 6 Thou gav'st the word — the winds did cease, The storms obey'd thy will; The raging sea was hush'd in peace, And ev'ry wave was still. 7 For this, my life in ev'ry state, A life of praise shall be; And death (when death shall be my fate) Shall join my soul to thee.
