Routley Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 32 hymnals Matching Instances: 28 Lyrics: 1 New songs of celebration render To God who has great wonders done; Love sits enthroned in ageless splendor; Come and adore the Mighty One. God has made known the great salvation Which all his friends with joy confess. God has revealed to every nation Truth and unending righteousness. 2 Joyfully, heartily resounding, Let every instrument and voice Peal out the praise of grace abounding, Calling the whole world to rejoice. Trumpets and organs, set in motion Such sounds as make the heavens ring; All things that live in earth and ocean, Sound forth the song, your praises bring. 3 Rivers and seas and torrents roaring, Honor the Lord with wild acclaim; Mountains and stones look up adoring, And find a voice to praise God's name. Righteous, commanding, ever glorious, Praises be sung that never cease; Just is our God, whose truth victorious Establishes the world in peace. Scripture: Psalm 98 Used With Tune: RENDEZ A DIEU

Mark How the Lamb of God's Self-Offering

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr. (1944-) Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 6 Lyrics: 1 Mark how the Lamb of God's self-offering our human sinfulness takes on in the birth-waters of the Jordan as Jesus is baptized by John. Hear how the voice from heaven thunders, "Lo, this is my beloved Son." See how in dovelike form the Spirit descends on God's Anointed One. 2 From this assurance of God's favour Jesus goes to the wilderness, there to endure a time of testing preparing him to teach and bless. So we, by water and the Spirit baptized into Christ's ministry, are often led to paths of service through mazes of adversity. 3 Grant us, O God, the strength and courage to live the faith our lips declare; bless us in our baptismal calling; Christ's royal priesthood help us share. Turn us from every false allegiance, that we may trust in Christ alone: raise up in us a chosen people transformed by love to be your own.

The Lord is chief among my helpers; And I shall see my foes o’erthrown: Far better than in man or princes, My trust I place in God alone. 3. I shall not die, but live, declaring The works of God, who tried me sore, And chastened me; but in His mercy Not unto death has giv’n me o’er. The gates of righteousness set open, The gate of God! I’ll enter in To praise Thee, Lord, who prayer hast answered, And savèdst me from all my sin. 4. The stone—O Lord, it is Thy doing— The stone the builders did despise, Is made the headstone of the corner, And it is marvelous in our eyes. This is the day, of days most glorious, The Lord has made; we’ll joy and sing. Send now prosperity, we pray Thee; And, O our God, salvation bring! Scripture: Psalm 118 Used With Tune: RENDEZ Á DIEU

Christians, Sing Out with Exultation

Author: Benedict Pictet; Henry L. Jenner Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1. Christians, sing out with exultation, And praise your benefactor’s name! Today the author of salvation, The Father’s well belovèd came. Of undefilèd virgin mother An infant, all divine, was born, And God Himself became your brother Upon this happy Christmas morn. 2. In Him eternal might and power To human weakness hath inclined; And this poor child brings richest dower Of gifts and graces to mankind. While here His majesty disguising, A servant’s form the Master wears, Behold the beams of glory rising, E’en from His poverty and tears. 3. A stable serves Him for a dwelling, And for a bed a manger mean; Yet o’er His head, His advent telling, A new and wondrous star is seen. Angels rehearse to men the story, The joyful story of His birth; To Him they raise the anthem—Glory To God on high, and peace on earth! 4. For through this holy incarnation The primal curse is done away; And blessèd peace o’er all creation Hath shed its pure and gentle ray. Then, in that heavenly concert joining, O Christian men, with one accord, Your voices tunefully combining, Salute the birthday of your Lord! Used With Tune: GENEVAN PSALM CXVIII

From distant Times thou hast remained

Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 From distant Times thou hast remained, O LORD, our sure abiding Place; And by thy mighty Arm sustained, From Age to Age, thy chosen Race. Before the lofty Hills appeared, Or e'er thy Pow'r the Earth did frame, Thou wert as LORD supreme revered; And thou art evermore the same. 2 Frail Man, at thy fierce Indignation, Is turn'd to Dust, of which he's made; And when thou wouldst renew his Station, Thy Will is instantly obey'd. A Thousand Years to thee not seeming, Longer than as a fleeting Day, Or Midnight Watch, to Men when dreaming, Whose Hours in Silence waste away. 3 Thou sweep'st us off by thy great Power, We vanish hence like airy Dreams; At first we grow like some fair Flower That feels the Sun's refreshing Beams: But howsoever fresh and blooming, Its Beauty in the Morning shows, 'Tis soon cut down, and Flames consuming, Destroy it e'er the Ev'ning close. 4 We by thine Anger are distressed, And at thy Wrath we are dismay'd; Our Crimes, whene'er we have transgressed, Are all before thy Presence laid. Thy dreadful Indignation lasting, Our drooping Days in Grief we spend; Our Years in pining Sorrow wasting, Break off like Tales that quickly end. 5 Our Term in Sev'nty Years is ended, An Age which very few survive; But if that Term should be extended, And we at Eighty should arrive; Yet then our boasted Vigour failing, We waste away in Grief and Pain, The Hand of Death is soon prevailing, And we no longer may remain. Part II 6 But who, O LORD, thy sore Displeasure Does with a due Regard revere? And yet thou dost thine Anger measure, As more or less we learn to fear. LORD! let us be by thee respected, And teach us our short Date to mind; That, by true Wisdom still directed, Our Hearts may be to GOD inclin'd. 7 Turn thee, O GOD, to us distressed, And to thy Servants gracious be; Let us with Mercy soon be blessed, And make us still rejoice in thee. Since thou hast us with Sorrows vexed, LORD, wipe away our former Tears; And let us be no more perplexed, But comfort us with happier Years. 8 Let this thy wond'rous Work displayed, To all thy Servants, LORD< be shown; And, down to distant Times conveyed, O let thy glorious Pow'r be known! Be thy bright Rays to us inclined, And kindly give our Work Success; The glorious Work we have designed, Do thou, O LORD, vouchsafe to bless.

Let all the Lands, JEHOVAH blessing

Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Let all the Lands, JEHOVAH blessing, To him with chearful Voices raise; To his great Name their Psalms addressing, Spread far abroad his glorious Praise: And let them say, LORD, how excelling, In all thy wond'rous Works, art thou! Thy Foes against thy Pow'r rebelling, Shall conquer'd be, and forc'd to bow. 2 The Nations round, thy Pow'r confessing, Shall thee, their GOD, supreme, adore; Their Dread of thy great Name expressing, In Hymns and Songs for ever more: O come, and view with Admiration, The Works of God! and then you'll own, That he to ev'ry Age and Nation, Hath great and wond'rous Judgments shown. 3 The Sea, thro' which our Fathers walked, By him was turn'd to solid Land; Of this they to their Offspring talked, And prais'd the Wonders of his Hand. He by his Pow'r is ever reigning, His Eye doth all the World survey; Let Man, presumptuous Thoughts restraining, Yield humble to his Sovereign Sway. 4 Thro' all the Earth let GOD be blessed; Ye Nations spread abroad his Praise; To him be all your Pray'rs addressed, To him in Songs your Voices raise. 'Tis GOD that gives us safe Protection, 'Tis he that does our Lives secure; Our Footsteps form'd by his Direction, Are made to tread the Path that's sure. Part II 5 As Gold by Fire becomes refined, And Ore is in the Furnace try'd; So, LORD, to know how we're inclined, Thou has thy searching Pow'r apply'd. Thou plac'd us in a low Condition, Where we oppressive Burthens bore; Our Hearts were touch'd with deep Contrition, We daily did thy Help implore. 6 Our Foes did us, their Slaves distressed, At once thro' Fire and Water chase; But thou hast all our Wrongs redressed, And brought us in a wealthy Place. Burnt-Off'rings, therefore, I am bringing, To thee, the GOD, whom I adore; My Voice shall be employ'd in singing, Thy Praises, LORD! for ever more. 7 The Vows my Soul, when much distressed, Hath made to GOD, I will repay; Whate'er my Lips have then expressed, Shall be perform'd without Delay. Then shall the riches Incense burning, Perfume the Air, fat Rams shall fall; The choicest Goats from Fields returning, Shall bleed, with Bullocks from the Stall. 8 All ye that fear the LORD, attend me, O hear my Voice with heedful Care! I'll tell how GOD his Help did send me, His Love with Joy I will declare. As I before his Aid implored, So now I'll spread abroad his Fame; He hath my Soul to Life restored, And I will bless his holy Name. 9 But if my Heart had Evil framed, Or if my Breast had harbour'd Sin; My Vows would soon have been disclaimed, My Pray'rs had not accepted been. But GOD to me, whene'er I cried, His gracious Ear did quickly bend; Nor hath my humble Wish denied, But does with constant Love attend. 10 Be thou, O GOD, for ever blessed, Who never, when to thee I pray, With hold thy Love from me distressed, Or turn thy glorious Face away. nor turns his Face away!

To GOD be endless Praise addressed

Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 To GOD be endless Praise addressed, Because his Mercies ne'er decay; That he hath us with Favour blessed, Let thankful Isr'el ever say: And for the Love he's still extedning, Let Aaron's House their Joy express; His Truth and Goodness never ending. Let all who fear the LORD confess. 2 My Soul to GOD her Pray'r addressed, Who graciously vouchsaf'd to hear; Since he relieves me, when oppressed, Why should I any Mortal fear? My Foes, no doubt, shall be disgraced, Since GOD declares himself my Friend; Our Hopes should all in him be placed, And not on human Pow'r depend. 3 Though many Nations, close combined, Did oftentimes beset me round; Yet I my Cause to him resigned, Who did their boasted Strength confound. They swarm'd like Bees, and me defied, Their Rage was like a short-liv'd Blaze; For, whilst on GOD I still relied, I overcame them all with Ease. 4 When they their utmost Force exerted, In hopes to see my sudden Fall; The LORD, who never me deserted, In Mercy sav'd me from them all. That I've escap'd from Tribulation, To him alone the Praise belongs; He is my Strength, and my Salvation; He is the Theme of all my Songs. 5 The Just, with Joy, are ever praising The LORD, who saves their souls from Harm; For wond'rous Things and Works amazing, Are done by his Almighty Arm. His strong Right Hand he hath extended, And never-fading Honours won; His strong Right Hand hath us defended, And most surprizing Wonders done. 6 Though Death draws nigh, my Soul dismaying, Yet GOD shall still prolong my Days; That I his mighty Works displaying, May thus advance his glorious Praise. When GOD, with heavy Hand correcting, My Soul of all her Joy bereaves; Ev'n then, his Mercy me protecting, From Death my fainting Life retrieves. 7 Then let the Gates be wide extended, The Gates, to which the Just repair, That I, whom GOD hath thus defended, May praise my great Deliv'rer there. With Footsteps to those Gates directed, To which in Crouds the Righteous press, Since thou hast heard, and me protected, Thy holy Name, O LORD, I'll bless. 8 That which the Builders once despised, Is now become the Corner-Stone; This Wonder, LORD, thou hast devised, This wond'rous Work is thine alone! This Day is GOD's, let Songs ascending To Heav'n, be sent from ev'ry Voice: LORD, be thy Arm our Cause defending, And make us still in thee rejoice. 9 Who trusts in GOD, to be supported, Ev'n him let all th' Assembly bless; We, who have to his House resorted, Do freely wish you good Success. GOD is the LORD, in whose Salvation, We all both Light and Comfort find; Fast to the Horns, with Adoration, The Altar's Horns, the Victim bind. 10 Thou art my GOD, and I with Pleasure, Will ever praise thy holy Name; Thou art my GOD, my soul's great Treasure, Therefore I'll celebrate thy Fame! Oh, to the LORD be Praise addressed, Who doth so kind and gracious prove; For us, his People, he hath blessed, And crown'd with never ending Love.

Let Earth's Inhabitants, combining, To him their joyful Voices raise; Let all in Songs of Triumph joining, Loudly resound their Maker's Praise. 3 With many tuneful Harps surrounding, Let them into the Concert bring, Trumpets and Cornets, shrilly sounding, And hymn glad Praises to their King: Let the loud Ocean roar, transported, With all that spacious Seas contain, Be Earth's Inhabitants exhorted, To join in Praise the noisy Main. 4 Let Streams, thro' fertile Meadows bounding, In larger Torrents dance and play; Let Hills and Vales their Joy resounding, Far off redoubled Shouts convey: To welcome down the King renowned, Who does in awful Triumph come, With never fading Glory crowned, With Justice to reward or doom.

Wer Deiner Leiden Maß ergründen, Die Du ertrugst so voll Geduld? Wie Schafe stumm zur Schlachtbank gehen, Gingst Du hinauf nach Golgatha, Wo Schrecken, Angst und Todeswehen Allein Dein Auge vor sich sah. 2 Von finstern Mächten ganz umgeben, Bliebst Du doch völlig Gott geweiht, Gabst willig hin Dein teures Leben Zu Gottes Ehr' und Herrlichkeit. Hast Deine Lieb' am Kreuz enthüllet, So wie der Mensch den tiefsten Haß, Hast Gottes Willen ganz erfüllet, Und ach! der Mensch sein Sündenmaß. 3 Und Du – o Liebe ohnegleichen! – Du gabst Dich selber für uns hin, Daß kein Gericht uns kann erreichen, Daß selbst der Tod für uns Gewinn. Du hast für uns den Fluch getragen, Als Du am Kreuz zur Sünd' gemacht. Auf Dir all unsre Sünden lagen, Als Du das Sühnungswerk vollbracht. 4 O Gottes Lamm! anbetend bringen, Wenn schwach auch, wir Dir Preis und Ehr'. Wir werden völlig dort besingen Dein Lob mit allem Himmelsheer. O Lamm! Du wardst für uns geschlachtet, Hast Gott erkauft uns durch Dein Blut, Hast uns zu herrschen wert geachtet Und stets zu warten Deiner Hut. Used With Tune: [O Gottes Lamm! wer kann verkünden]
