HYMN XXXI WHere are those blest united ones that have sup't with their King Spoyl not his Feast with sighs and groans lift up your Voice le ts sing Or let us only mourn that we our Comforter should grieve Who poured forth his Blood that he therewith might us relieve Let 's weep that we for ev'ry Toy should thus like Children cry Or rather let us weep for Joy that Grace doth wipe our Eye Those that can see their Father smile may laugh tho' others frown If Heav'n be ours let Earth seem vile 't is all not worth a Crown Why should we fear tho' Mountains shake tho' Seas lift up their Voice While some fall down while others quake in God let us rejoyce What cause have we to bless thy Name oh that we could give praise Then shall we Lord lift up the same when thou our Heart shalt raise Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXII IF with some Earthly Prince to sit be such a glorious thing Oh! how great Dignity is it to Feast with Heavens King Our Fathers House has Bread enough his Board is richly spread To whose Provision that 's poor stuff whereon we sometimes fed The smallest Crumb we cannot earn as due we cannot claim Yet are we full could we but learn to praise his Holy Name The Daintyes which thou dost afford we nowhere else can see Here shall we therefore choose to board here shall our dwelling be And if a Glance so chear the Heart what will a full view do Whilst under Age we have but part of what we are born too We trust we shall have more at last for which we wait and crave Mean while we bless thee for that Tast which now through Grace we have Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXIII THy Peoples praise great God of Love well may it wait for thee For thou dost wait still from above that thou might'st gracious be The greater sort dost thou forget but we rememb'red are Whilst others are without we sit under thy tender care Not unto us dear Lord ah No not unto us but thee From all this Grace let Glory grow thy Name exalted be What poor provoking Dust are we but yet not swept away What place for such too low can be yet Grace hath guilt our Clay Our help did in thy Bosome lye from whence to shew thy Grace Thy Son our Lord must come to dye that we might have his place Fain would we come dear God to thee oh let thy Hand us raise Then shall we all thy Trumpets be to thine Eternal praise Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXIV WHat bounty Lord what matchless Love hast thou to us made known What costly Pearls drop't from above and from thy Hand alone Thou hast redeem'd us from that Grave wherein we rotting lay These naked Souls how fine how brave they are since tother Day Whence are those glorious Crowns those Rings which to our share do fall Can Beggers Brats deserve such things no sure Grace gave them all Where had we been what had we done if left to Natures Light We might have worshipped the Sun dear God! thou know'st we might But thou a brighter Sun hast sent which in our Hearts doth shine Whose Light us to thy self hath sent and all whose Beams are thine Oh! let it more and more increase until its course be run Until our glim'ring Light shall cease and we dwell in the Sun Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXV T Is Angels work to bless and sing 't is not the Saints alone When they shall sit each like a King praise will become their Throne But what poor Instruments are we all-out of Tune unstrung Unless he our Musitian be who can give Dust a Tongue The Nature of this work is such that while we sing we groan Because we foul what er'e we touch ours is a doleful tone But he that hath Compos'd our Song can put our Hearts in Tune Tho' we be weak yet he is strong here let thy strength be shewn How falsly have we dealt with thee yet thou dost trust us still Fain would we
henceforth faithful be according to thy Will Thy Grace doth aggravate our sin oh might it kill the same Then shall we Angel-like begin to praise thy Glorious Name Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXVI WHat Daintyes doth our Lord prepare what Guests doth he invite May Worms divide such curious Fare doubtless 't is not their Right Poor Beggers are not serv'd in state their posture is to stand Their proper place is at the Gate Crusts only fit their Hand How comes it then to pass that we that we are bid draw near That we are bid sit down by thee and welcome to such Chear Ah! not because we are not poor have we this favour found But mercy is with thee in store that only is the Ground Oh! blessed be the Lord of Love who ask't not what we were But bad his only Son remove that so we might draw near Since thou hast made our Souls a Feast oh make us thankful too And whilst some others praise in jest let us both say and do Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXVII THat glorious Grace that Grace of Love that Grace of Love divine How clearly doth it from above upon our Faces shine Love was at work before we were five Thousand Years or more Time only makes those things appear that Love hath wrought before Like silly Sheep we wandring went we went we know not where Love cry'd as we to Hell were bent this is the way walk here In a short Time and for poor Crumbs we all our Portion spent Love freely gave far greater Sums than what before were lent Our only danger is from sin thence comes the greatest harm But Love hath safely Hedg'd us in with it's iâ— closing Arm. How can we now but with him walk when Love hath pav'd our way Oh! let 's not spend our Time in Talk let 's run let 's make no stay Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXVIII VVHat shall we say dear God! to thee how shall we praise thy Name Fain would we somewhat thankful be silence will speak our shame But can we by a word or two think to express thy praise Words are poor things what shall we do Tongues talk but practice pays And yet alas what can we do what should our Present be Thou art so high and we so low how can these Hands reach thee But tho' our Crowns can never reach nor fit thy Glorious Head Yet at thy Feast thou dost us teach our Robes of praise to spread And tho' thy Rent we cannot make 'till thou shalt bless our store Yet Lord we pray thee stoop and take this mite 'till we have more The Grace of Christ whereon we stand doth some Advantage give Do thou but lend thy raising Hand we then with thee shall live Hosanna to King c. HYMN XXXIX WHence comes it that this Bread and Wine such Soul refreshing yeild This Springs not from the common Vine nor grows in ev'ry Field 'T is curious Fare this Childrens Bread it is both Bread and Meat Whereby we are both Taught and Fed which we may safely eat It breeds no Worms nor shall they dye who truly eat this Bread The Feeder is Transform'd thereby and no bad Humour Fed. 'T is no intoxicating Cup that is put in our Hand Which if we could but drink it up would all our Cares disband O blessed be that gracious Hand that holds and fills the same And gladly would we see that Land from whence this Bread first came Thou Lord who art the God of Peace who art our strength and stay Let Comfort by thy means increase and let the Flesh decay Hosanna to King Davids Son Hosanna to the Christ Who in th' Almighty's name doth come Hosanna in the high'st To him that thus hath loved us and cancel'd out our score In the pure Flood of his own Blood be praise for evermore AMEN FINIS ERRATA PAge 21. line 15. for they read they'â— p. 24. l. 6. r. when l. 7. f. gates Regraces p. 27. l. 11. f. dissolve r. dethronâ— p. 40. l. 4. f. their r. these p. 68. l. 16. f.
