Philip Doddridge quotes:
-
Awake, my soul! Stretch every nerve, And press with vigor on; A heavenly race demands thy zeal, And an immortal crown.
-
Grace! 'tis a charming Sound, Harmonious to my Ear! Heav'n with the Echo shall resound, And all the Earth shall hear.
-
Ye servants of the Lord, Each in his office wait, Observant of the heavenly word, And watchful at his gate.
-
Hark, the glad sound! The Saviour comes, The Saviour promised long; Let every heart exult with joy, And every voice be song!
-
His goodness stands approved,Unchanged from day to day;I'll drop my burden at His feet,And bear a song away.
-
If nobody loves you, be sure it is your own fault.
-
Let us live while we live.
-
Perish each thought of human pride, let God alone be magnified.
-
I am more afraid of doing what is wrong than of dying.
-
Live while you live, the epicure would say, And seize the pleasures of the present day; Live while you live the sacred preacher cries, And give to God each moment as it flies. Lord, in my views let both united be; I live to pleasure when I live to thee.

Religion, in its most general view, is such a Sense of God in the soul, and such a conviction of our obligations to him, and of our dependence upon him, as shall engage us to make it our great care to conduct ourselves in a manner which we have reason to believe will be pleasing to him.
