HYMNS. MISCELLANEOUS-TIMES AND SEASONS. HYMN 76. C. M. Frail life, and succeeding eternity. And humbly own to thee, What dying worms are we ! 2 Our wasting lives grow shorter still, As months and days increase ; And ev'ry beating pulse we tell, Leaves the small number less. 3 The year rolls round, and steals away The breath at first it gave; Whate'er we do, where'er we be, We're trav'lling to the grave. 4 Dangers stand thick thro' all the ground, To push us to the tomb; To hurry mortals home. Hang everlasting things ! Upon life's feeble strings. 6 Infinite joy or endless woe Attends on ev'ry breath; Upon the brink of death! a , 7 Waken, O Lord, our drowsy sense, To walk this dang’rous road; HYMN 77. C. M. Time is short. iTHE time is short! the season near, When death will us remove; And all we fondly love. Nor trifle time away ; While it is call'd to-day. To Christ the Lord submit ; To mercy's golden sceptre bow, And fall at Jesu's feet. 4 The time is short ! ye saints rejoice; The Lord will quickly come : Soon shall ye hear the Bridegroom's voice, To call you to your home. . The hour is just at hand; And reach the wish'd-for land. When we shall dwell above; And be forever happy there, With Jesus, whom we love. HYMN 78. L. M. Eternity. 1 TERNITY! stupendous theme ! E cam Eternity ! O awful sound, "A deep, where all our thoughts are drown'd! 2 Eternity ! the dread abode, And habitation of our God; Beyond the reach of mortal sense. 3 But an eternity there is Of dreadful woe, or joyful bliss : We to eternity are bound, Have left this fleeting world behind ! [see, They're gone ; but where ?-ah! pause and Gone to a long eternity. In all the fiery deeps of hell ; Death, and a dread eternity ? In Christ rejoice, your glorious hope : HYMN 79. L. M. Eternal life. To sinners, who deserve to die ! And shout the joys, ye worlds, on high. 2 Eternal life! how will it reign, When, mounting from this breathless clod, The soul discharg'd from sin and pain, Ascends t' enjoy its Father, God! 3 Eternal life ! how will it bloom In beauty on that blissful day, When rescued from th' impris’ning tomb, A glory clothes our rising clay! 4 Eternal life! O how refin'd The joy! the triumph how divine ! Shall in the Saviour's image shine! 5 Holy and heav'nly be that soul, Where dwells an hope so high as this ; HYMN 80. P. M. Time and Eternity. ' LO O! on a narrow neck of land, "Twixt two unbounded seas I stand, Yet how insensible ! A point of time, a moment's space, Removes me to yon heav'nly place, Or-shuts me up in hell. Eternal things impress ; Wake me to righteousness. of that tremendous day, To meet a joyful doom ? holy fear, To make my calling sure ! |
