Idumea 04:02
lyrics
buy track
And am I born to die? To lay this body down? And must my trembling spirit fly Into a world unknown 
 A land of deepest shade Unpierced by human thought The dreary regions of the dead Where all things are forgot 
 Soon as from Earth I go What will become of me? Eternal happiness or woe Must then my fortune be 
 Waked by the trumpet's sound  I from my grave shall rise And see the Judge with glory crowned And see the flaming skies

Psalm 87 04:24
lyrics
buy track
His foundation is in the holy mountains Glorious things are spoken of thee I will make mention to them that know me Gates of Zion O city of God This man This man was born there The Lord shall count when he writeth up the people As well the singers, players on instruments All my springs are in thee O city The highest himself shall establish her This man This man was born there

There Is a Fountain Filled with Blood 04:19
lyrics
buy track
E’er since by Faith I saw The stream thy flowing Wounds supply Redeeming love  Has been my theme And shall be  ’Til I die 
 Drawn from Immanuel's veins 
 When this lisping, stammering tongue Lies silent in the grave Then in a no- bler, sweeter song I will sing  Thy power to save 
 Drawn from Immanuel's veins There is a fountain filled with blood Drawn from Immanuel's veins

The Sign of Jonah 04:08
lyrics

O sleeper, Arise Call upon thy God If so be that we Perish not And they said everyone To his fellow Let us cast lots That we may know For whose cause This evil is upon us 
 Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh lord my God Oh my God Three days Three nights 
 Tell us we pray thee What is thine occupation What is thy country Of what people art thou Then said they unto him What shall we do unto thee That the sea may be calm  Unto us Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh lord my God Oh my God Three days Three nights O sleeper, Arise Call upon thy God If so be that we Perish not Said, I cried by reason Of mine affliction unto the Lord Out of the belly of hell And thou heardest my voice Oh my God Oh my God Oh my God Oh lord my God Oh my God Three days Three nights

Why, Impious Herod 03:30
lyrics
buy track
Herod shouldst thou fear The Christ is near? Heavenly kingdoms grant Thine earth don’t want 
Lo, sages From the east Are gone to Where the star  Hath newly shone 
By light to light, they press And by their gifts  Their God confess 
God is manifest Jordon’s water blest Who sin had never known Our sins undone 
He that ruleth everything change the nature  of the spring gives at Cana  This for sign 
Herod shouldst though fear the water reddens into wine 
The water reddens into wine

Evening Sacrifice 04:41
lyrics

Die-away Wimpled lip Gold-wisp Airy-grey 
Eye, all in Fellowship This, all this Beauty blooming 
This, all this  Freshness fuming Give God While worth  Consuming Both thought 
Give God while worth consuming 
Tell me child What shall I buy Sweetest air Plied and pressed 
Father what  You buy me It’s your choice I like best 
What the heart is Like carriers let fly 
Nature knows  To its own Ten years long How to and why 
Give God while worth consuming 
Head, heart, hand, heel, and Head, heart, hand, heel, and Head, heart, hand, heel, and Shoulder Head, heart, hand, heel, and Head, heart, hand, heel, and Head, heart, hand, heel, and Shoulder 
 Vault and scope  Mastery In silk-ash Kept from cooling 
Ripest un- Under rind Life half lifts the latch of What hell stalks  Towards the snatch of Your offering, with despatch Life half lifts the latch of 
 Give God while worth consuming

Canaan's Land 03:37
lyrics
buy track
Oh for a breeze of heavenly love To waft my soul away To that celestial world above Where pleasures ne’er decay 
 Eternal Spirit, Deign to be My pilot here below, To steer through life’s tempestuous sea Where stormy winds do blow 
 Waft my soul away 
 Eternal Spirit, Deign to be My pilot here below, To steer through life’s tempestuous sea Where stormy winds do blow 
 To steer through life’s tempestuous sea Where stormy winds do blow
