Grace Audio Treasures

John Kent, 1766-1843There is a period known to GodWhen all His sheep, redeemed by blood,Shall leave the hateful ways of sin,Turn to the fold, and enter in.At peace with Hell, with God at war,In sin's dark maze, they wander far,Indulge their lust, and still go on,As far from God, as sheep can run.But see how God's indulgent careAttends their wanderings, here and there;Still tracking them, wherever they stray,With piercing thorns, to hedge their way.When wisdom calls, they stop their ear,And headlong seek, their mad career;Judgments and mercies, can never sway,Their roving feet, to wisdom's way.Glory to God, they never shall rove,Beyond the limits of His love;Fenced with Jehovah's shalls and wills,Firm as the everlasting hills.The appointed time, rolls on apace,To call effectually, by His grace;To change the heart, renew the will,And turn the feet, to Zion's hill.

Psalm 11. Blessed is the man who does not . . . walk in the counsel of the wicked, or stand in the way of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers.2. But his delight is in the law of the LORD, and on His law he meditates day and night. 3. He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever he does prospers. 4. Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away. 5. Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous. 6. For the LORD watches over the way of the righteous--but the way of the wicked will perish.

Psalm 22 1. My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from saving me, so far from the words of my groaning? 2. O my God, I cry out by day, but you do not answer, by night, and am not silent. 3. Yet you are enthroned as the Holy One; you are the praise of Israel. 4. In you our fathers put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them. 5. They cried to you and were saved; in you they trusted and were not disappointed. 6. But I am a worm and not a man, scorned by men and despised by the people. 7. All who see me mock me; they hurl insults, shaking their heads: 8. "He trusts in the LORD; let the LORD rescue him. Let him deliver him, since he delights in him." 9. Yet you brought me out of the womb; you made me trust in you even at my mother's breast. 10. From birth I was cast upon you; from my mother's womb you have been my God. 11. Do not be far from me, for trouble is near and there is no one to help. 12. Many bulls surround me; strong bulls of Bashan encircle me. 13. Roaring lions tearing their prey open their mouths wide against me. 14. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted away within me. 15. My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death. 16. Dogs have surrounded me; a band of evil men has encircled me, they have pierced my hands and my feet. 17. I can count all my bones; people stare and gloat over me. 18. They divide my garments among them and cast lots for my clothing. 19. But you, O LORD, be not far off; O my Streng
