Not to the terrors of the Lord,
The tempest, fire, and smoke;
Not to the thunder of that word
Which God on Sinai spoke;

Hymn 150

© Isaac Watts

Join all the glorious names
Of wisdom, love, and power,
That ever mortals knew,
That angels ever bore:
All are too mean to speak his worth,
Too mean to set my Savior forth.

That ever men or angels bore,

Or set lmmannel's glory forth.

With cheerful voice I sing
The titles of my Lord,
And borrow all the names
Of honor from his word:
Nature and art can ne'er supply
Sufficient forms of majesty.

Go, worship at Immanuel's feet,
See in his face what wonders meet!

His worth, his glory, or his grace.

Some tokens of thy grace.

So new-born babes desire the breast,
To feed, and grow, and thrive;
So saints with joy the gospel taste,
And by the gospel live.

Mistaken souls, that dream of heav'n,
And make their empty boast
Of inward joys, and sins forgiv'n,
While they are slaves to lust!

Who shall the Lord's elect condemn?
'Tis God that justifies their souls;
And mercy, like a mighty stream,
O'er all their sins divinely rolls.

Come, dearest Lord, descend and dwell
By faith and love in every breast;
Then shall we know, and taste, and feel
The joys that cannot be expressed.

Had I the tongues of Greeks and Jews,
And nobler speech, that angels use,
If love be absent, I am found,
Like tinkling brass, an empty sound.

Their faith and zeal declare,
All their religion is a dream,
If love be wanting there.

The holy gospel we profess;
So let our works and virtues shine,
To prove the doctrine all divine.

His sharp distress, his sore complaints,
By his last groans, his dying blood,
I charge my soul to love the saints.

Give up your comforts to the Lord;

Or grant you blessings more divine.

Faith, and obedience to his word.

Of our High Priest above;

His bowels melt with love.

Behold the wretch whose lust and wine
Had wasted his estate,
He begs a share among the swine,
To taste the husks they eat!
