Hymns:

368 PSALM 122

HOW pleased and blest was I

to hear the people cry,

‘Come, let us seek our God today!’

Yes, with a cheerful zeal

we haste to Zion’s hill,

and there our vows and honours pay.

2 Zion, thrice happy place,

adorned with wondrous grace,

and walls of strength embrace you round;

in you our tribes appear,

to pray, and praise, and hear

the sacred gospel’s joyful sound.

3 There David’s greater Son

has fixed His royal throne,

He sits for grace and judgment there;

He bids the saint be glad,

He makes the sinner sad,

and humble souls rejoice with fear.

4 May peace attend your gate,

and joy within you wait,

to bless the soul of every guest!

The man that seeks your peace,

and wishes your increase,

a thousand blessings on him rest!

5 My tongue repeats her vows,

peace to this sacred house!

For there my friends and kindred dwell;

and, since my glorious God

makes you His blest abode,

my soul shall ever love you well!

Isaac Watts, 1674-1748

1.4

Faithful One, so unchanging

Ageless One, You’re my rock of peace.

Lord of all, I depend on You.

I call out to You, again and again.

I call out to You, again and again.

You are my rock in times of trouble.

You lift me up when I fall down.

All through the storm

Your love is the anchor.

My hope is in You alone.

(Twice)

(Last time – My hope is in You alone.)

FATHER of heaven, whose love profound

a ransom for our souls has found,

before Your throne we sinners bend;

to us Your pardoning love extend.

2 Almighty Son, incarnate Word,

our Prophet, Priest, Redeemer, Lord,

before Your throne we sinners bend;

to us Your saving grace extend.

3 Eternal Spirit, by whose breath

the soul is raised from sin and death,

before Your throne we sinners bend;

to us Your quickening power extend.

4 Thrice holy: Father, Spirit, Son;

mysterious Godhead, Three in One,

before Your throne we sinners bend;

grace, pardon, life to us extend.

Edward Cooper, 1770-1833

364 1 JOHN 3:1-4

BEHOLD the amazing gift of love

the Father has bestowed

on us, the sinful sons of men,

to call us sons of God.

2 Concealed as yet this honour lies,

by this dark world unknown,

a world that knew not, when He came,

even God’s eternal Son.

3 High is the rank we now possess,

but higher we shall rise;

though what we shall hereafter be

is hid from mortal eyes.

4 Our souls, we know, when He appears,

shall bear His image bright;

for all His glory, full disclosed,

shall open to our sight.

5 A hope so great and so divine

may trials well endure,

and purge the soul from sense and sin,

as Christ Himself is pure.

SCOTTISH PARAPHRASES, 1781
