They by thy Word Lord quickned are And all their sorrows flies 6 Light hath a shining quality Thy Gospel shines so bright That nothing can more glorious be In all thy Children's sight HYMN 81. Psal. 19. 10. More are they to be desired than Gold yea than much fine Gold 1 HOw precious is that Word of thine Can Gold with it compare When 't is all sacred all divine No there is nothing here 2 Like unto it 't is of such worth A little quantity Of it exceeds all things on Earth Such glories in it lye 3 Tho' Gold doth deck the outward Man This doth the Soul adorn Thy Gospel is an Ornament Nay 't is thy Peoples Crown 4 Gold doth make Vessels which are rare Thy Word and Spirit do Make golden Saints beyond compare And golden Churches too 5 Yea Candlesticks of beaten Gold Are formed out of it Which glorious are Lord to behold But will be rarer yet The Second Part. 1 And as Gold is durable so It will the tryal bear Thy Word is try'd and will abide Whilst Heaven and Earth appear 2 But O what pains do Mortals use To get a little Gold Which when 't is got it flyes away And it they cannot hold 3 O then forbear and labour now For Gold that will abide To lasting glory 't will bring you And fill your Souls beside 4 Which Gold could never do nor shall That cannot satisfie The Soul of Man the thing 's too small It can't its wants supply 5 True peace and satisfaction is Only in God above His Word receive and ●oon you will Be filled with his love HYMN 82. 1 Pet. 2. 2. As new born Babes desiring the sincere Milk of the Word that ye may grow thereby 1 ARt thou a Babe tho' newly born What is thy Soul's desire Dost hunger for Milk of God's Word And raise thy cry yet higher 2 As pretty Babes who want the Breast How do they cry amain Ah! can thy Soul find no small rest Till thou dost Milk obtain 3 Then know it is a sure sign Thou hast a heavenly heart And God to feed that Soul of thine Will his sweet Word impart 4 To thee that thou mayst grow thereby O it is very good Milk nourishes and feeds the Child Better than other Food 5 Stong Meat thou canst not yet digest Milk's a Restorative God's Word restores decayed Souls Nay makes the dead alive 6 Milk was a blessing choice of old And with it Canaan flow'd Hast thou God's Word What Blessing then Better can be bestow'd 7 On thee poor Soul O prize it much And on it always feed T will strengthen thee and make thee fat And nothing shalt thou need The Second Part. 1 Ye who are Lovers of sweet Milk Will will you now make haste O come and buy this doth excell We pray you Friends to taste 2 If you were once born from above Though but young Babes you were You with this Milk would fall in love And say it tasteth rare 3 But whilest your evil nature is Corrupted thus with sin And glutted are continually With filthy trash within 4 You cannot relish this sweet Food Your Mouths are out of taste And therefore you don't find it good But want it will at last 5 But you who are God's little ones What cause have you to sing That you have plenty still of Milk And every other thing 6 O live to God and sing again His blessed Praises forth Who feeds and doth replenish you And strengthens all your Faith HYMN 83. Heb. 5. 14. Strong meat belongs to those that are of age c. 1 SOme of God's Children are grown up To such maturity That they on Meat that 's strong can sup In which great vertues lye 2 Young-men and Fathers some there be Whose senses have been long In exercise and therefore they Are stronger than the young 3 And little Babes whose Stomach 's weak And therefore cannot bear Nor take in dark mysterious things Which elder Saints does chear 4 It argues such diseased be Who unto years are grown If such Meat with them don't agree By which Christ is made known 5 More clearly to the Ear and Eye Than other Doctrins can And therefore we say presently He 's a diseased Man 6 Some base disease on him has siez'd He 's under some decay His stomach rises at God's Word And puts it quite away The Second Part. 1 But like as Meat that 's strong doth yield The better nourishmant So such who can strong things take in Are not so impotent 2 Nor ne're so weak as others be But harder work can do And unto them continually Does sweeter comforts flow 3 Small things do them not soon offend But strengthned be to bear Such things that others startle at And can't abide to hear 4 O then ye Saints do you see to 't Your weakness don't betray Who have been long in Jesus's School Yet stumbling-blocks do lay 5 In your own paths and others too And so expose God's Name To great reproach but on your selves Do bring the greatest shame 6 But let the strong bear with the weak In things indisserent And let the weak more wisdom seek Than from the strong to rent 7 It is a blessed truth of God For which the strong contend Tho' you being weak do yet not see 't But may though in the end HYMN 84. Psal. 110. 133. How sweet are thy words to my taste yea sweeter than Honey unto my mouth 1 HOw sweet is Honey and the Comb In which Honey is found But Lord thy Word it doth excell Its sweetness does abound 2 Beyond all things though ne're so sweet There 's nothing can it show Nor set it forth unto its worth Of things which are below 3 Nothing with it can once compare O do but taste and try For none but such can ever tell What good in it doth lye 4 If you to Honey add such things Which very bitter are The bitterness it doth take off Nay sweet it doth appear 5 Unto the taste so if you do With great afflictons meet If God a Promise gives to you The tryal will be sweet 6 But though Honey so sweet is found Yet some do it not love So none do find God's Word most sweet But those born from above The Second Part. 1 For the full stomach oft doth loath The Honey-Comb so sweet So carnal Souls account God's Word As poor and sorry Meat 2 Honey is of a purging kind God's Word it purges so It doth make clean both Heart and Mind The Life and Lip also 3 O then be like the pretty Bee Which doth industriously From ev'ry Flower she can see Her self store with Honey 4 And now ye Saints who sweetness find In God's most blessed Word Sing forth his Praise with joyful Mind Joyntly with one accord HYMN 85. Eph. 6. 17. And the Sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God c. 1 O Lord we hear War is proclaim'd And we engaged are To fight with

People about this heavenly Ordinance in due time and they shall not call it a Carnal nor a Formal thing any more nor cry out ' T is as bad as Common-Prayer I must tell them if Common-Prayer lay under Sacred Institution in the New Testament as Singing of Psalms and Hymns doth I should as freely embrace that But whereas the one is Humane so the other is Divine that is ordained and commanded of God as well as practised by Christ and his Disciples and by the Saints in all Ages But not to trouble you any further if the Lord be pleased to bless the labour and pains I have taken give him the Glory and let your poor Brother have a part in your Prayers who is still Yours to serve you in the Gospel B.
