The dreadful God our souls adore;
Rev'rence and awe become the tongue
That speaks the terrors of his power.

And raise his vengeance higher.

That all their robes are spotless white?
Whence did this glorious troop arrive
At the pure realms of heav'nly light?"

Let Christ and joy be all our theme;
His Spirit seals his gospel sure,
To every soul that trusts in him.

Salvation's born to-day.

Beneath the droppings of thy blood,
Jesus, nor shall it e'er remove.

And burst into a song;
Almighty love inspires my heart,
And pleasure tunes my tongue.

How righteous is this rule of thine!
"To do to all men just the same
As we expect or wish from them."

How is our nature spoiled by sin!
Yet nature ne'er hath found
The way to make the conscience clean,
Or heal the painful wound.

Where love inspires the breast;
Love is the brightest of the train,
And strengthens all the rest.

That brightest monument of praise
That e'er the God of love designed,
Employs and fills my lab'ring mind.

Lift up your eyes to th' heav'nly seats
Where your Redeemer stays;
Kind Intercessor, there he sits,
And loves, and pleads, and prays.

A man of prudent heart,
Whose thoughts, and lips, and life agree
To act a useful part.

Let those who bear the Christian name
Their holy vows fulfil;
The saints, the followers of the Lamb,
Are men of honor still.

Not by the laws of innocence
Can Adam's sons arrive at heav'n;
New works can give us no pretence
To have our ancient sins forgiv'n.
Hymn 35
© Isaac Watts
Let them neglect thy glory, Lord,
Who never knew thy grace;
But our loud songs shall still record
The wonders of thy praise.
