Hail to the Lord's Anointed

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 842 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Hail to the Lord's Anointed, great David's greater Son! Hail, in the time appointed, his reign on earth begun! He comes to break oppression, to set the captive free, to take away transgression, and rule in equity. 2 He comes with comfort speedy to those who suffer wrong; to help the poor and needy, and bid the weak be strong; to give them songs for sighing, their darkness turn to light, whose souls, condemned and dying, were precious in his sight. 3 He shall come down like showers upon the fruitful earth; and love, joy, hope, like flowers, spring in his path to birth; before him on the mountains shall peace, the herald, go; and righteousness, in fountains, from hill to valley flow. 4 O'er ev'ry foe victorious, he on his throne shall rest, from age to age more glorious, all-blessing and all-blessed; the tide of time shall never his covenant remove; his name shall stand forever– that name to us is Love.

O God, the Rock of Ages

Author: E. H. Bickersteth Appears in 200 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, the Rock of Ages, Who evermore hast been, What time the tempest rages, Our dwelling place serene; Before Thy first creations, O Lord, the same as now, To endless generations The Everlasting Thou! 2 Our years are like the shadows On sunny hills that lie, Or grasses in the meadows That blossom but to die; A sleep, a dream, a story By strangers quickly told, An unremaining glory Of things that soon are old. 3 O Thou, who canst not slumber, Whose light grows never pale, Teach us aright to number Our years before they fail; On us Thy mercy lighten, On us Thy goodness rest, And let Thy Spirit brighten The hearts Thyself hast blessed. 4 Lord, crown our faith's endeavor With beauty and with grace, Till, clothed in light for ever, We see Thee face to face; A joy no language measures, A fountain brimming o'er, An endless flow of pleasures, An ocean without shore.

O Father, All-Creating

Author: John Ellerton, 1826-1893 Meter: 7.6.7.6.7.6.7.6 Appears in 47 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Father, all-creating, Whose wisdom, love, and pow'r First bound two lives together In Eden's primal hour, To these who come before you, Your earliest gifts renew: A home by you made happy, A love by you kept true. 2 O Savior, guest in Cana Of old in Galilee, May these who ask your blessing Your loving presence see. Their store of earthly gladness Transform to heav'nly wine, And teach them, in the testing, To know your gift divine. 3 O Spirit of the Father, Breathe on them from above, So mighty in your pureness, So tender in your love; That, guarded by your presence, From sin and strife kept free, Their hearts may seek your guidance, And love you faithfully. 4 Unless you build it, Father, The house is built in vain; Unless you bless it, Savior, The joy will turn to pain; But none can break the union Of hearts in you made one; The love your Spirit blesses Is endless love begun.
