Poems by William Cowper
Praise for the Fountain Opened
... A golden harp for me!'Tis strung and tuned for endless years, ...
Lively Hope and Gracious Fear
... O save me, lest I fall!Though much exalted in the Lord, ...
The Heart Healed and Changed by Mercy
... Much I fasted, watch'd, and strove, ...
Not Works
... All his works and all his pride!Still the boasting heart replies, ...
Longing to be with Christ
... And waft me away to His throne!My Saviour, whom absent I love, ...
Sonnet to William Wilberforce, Esq.
... Hope smiles, joy springs, and tho' cold caution pause ...
True Pleasures
... Lord, my soul with pleasure springs ...
The Task: Book VI, The Winter Walk at Noon (excerpts)
... grateful some To palates that can taste immortal truth, ...
Seeking the Beloved
... Though none can see Him but His friends, ...
The New Convert
... My arm procured me this success!"Thus will He bring our spirits down, ...
Living and a Dead Faith
... But none shall gain the blissful place, ...
The Hidden Life
... Like precious wines their taste they lose, ...
True and False Comforts
... Were they indeed the Saviour's sheep, ...
The Covenant
... No -- your whole hearts shall seek the Lord, ...
Epitaph on a Hare
... Nor ear heard huntsmans hallo,Old Tiney, surliest of his kind, ...
