Holy, holy, holy Lord!
Author: Benjamin Williams Hymnal: BWHT1899 #72 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Holy, holy, holy Lord!
Be Thy glorious Name adored.
Lord, Thy mercies never fail:
Hail, celestial Goodness, hail!
2 Though unworthy, Lord, Thine ear,
Deign our humble songs to hear.
Purer praise we hope to bring,
When around Thy throne we sing.
3 There no tongue shall silent be;
All shall join in harmony;
That through heaven's capacious round
Praise to Thee may ever sound.
4 Lord, Thy mercies never fail:
Hail, celestial Goodness, hail!
Holy, holy, holy, Lord!
Be Thy glorious Name adored.
Amen. Topics: God Goodness of; God Mercies of; Praise To God Languages: English Tune Title: SEYMOUR
Holy, holy, holy Lord!
My soul, repeat His praise
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: BWHT1899 #73 (1899) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, repeat His praise,
Whose mercies are so great;
Whose anger is so slow to rise,
So ready to abate.
2 God will not always chide;
And, when His wrath is felt,
His strokes are fewer than our crimes,
And lighter than our guilt.
3 High as the heavens are raised
Above the ground we tread,
So far the riches of His grace
Our highest thoughts exceed.
4 His grace subdues our sins,
And His forgiving love
Far as the east is from the west
Doth all our guilt remove.
5 The pity of the Lord,
To those who fear His name,
Is such as tender parents feel;
He knows our feeble frame.
6 Our days are as the grass,
Or like the morning flower;
If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field,
It withers in an hour.
7 But Thy compassions, Lord,
To endless years endure;
And children's children ever find
Thy words of promise sure.
Amen. Topics: Brevity of Life; God Grace of ; God Mercies of; God Patience of; Praise To God Languages: English Tune Title: HEMINGFORD
My soul, repeat His praise
Be joyful in God, all ye lands of the earth
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: BWHT1899 #74 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Be joyful in God, all ye lands of the earth,
O, serve Him with gladness and fear;
Exult in His presence with music and mirth;
With love and devotion draw near.
2 For Jehovah is God, and Jehovah alone,
Creator and Ruler o’er all;
And we are His people, His sceptre we own;
His sheep, and we follow His call.
3 O, enter His gates with thanksgiving and song;
Your vows in His temple proclaim;
His praise with melodious accordance prolong,
And bless His adorable name.
4 For good is the Lord, inexpressibly good,
And we are the work of His hand;
His mercy and truth from eternity stood,
And shall to eternity stand.
Amen. Topics: God Creator; God Glory of; God Goodness of; God Presence of; Praise To God; Works of God Languages: English Tune Title: EXULTATION
Be joyful in God, all ye lands of the earth
O, worship the King all-glorious above
Author: Sir Robert Grant Hymnal: BWHT1899 #75 (1899) Lyrics: 1 O, worship the King all-glorious above,
And gratefully sing his wonderful love;
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.
2 O, tell of His might, and sing of His grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
His chariots of wrath the deep thunder-clouds form,
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.
3 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail:
Thy mercies how tender! how firm to the end
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend.
Amen. Topics: God Defender; God Glory of; God King; God Majesty of; Praise To God; Works of God Languages: English Tune Title: LYONS
O, worship the King all-glorious above
O Lord of heaven, and earth, and sea
Author: Christopher Wordsworth Hymnal: BWHT1899 #76 (1899) Lyrics: 1 O Lord of heaven, and earth, and sea,
To Thee all praise and glory be;
How shall we show our love to Thee,
Who givest all?
2 For peaceful homes, and healthful days,
For all the blessings earth displays
We owe Thee thankfulness and praise,
Who givest all.
3 Thou did not spare Thine only Son,
But gavest Him for a world undone,
And freely with that blessèd One
Thou givest all.
4 For souls redeemed, for sins forgiven,
For means of grace and hopes of heaven,
Father, what can to Thee be given,
Who givest all?
5 We lose what on ourselves we spend,
We have as treasure without end
Whatever, Lord, to Thee we lend,
Who givest all.
Amen.

O Lord of heaven, and earth, and sea
Now thank we all our God
Author: Catherine Winkworth; Martin Rinkart Hymnal: BWHT1899 #77 (1899) Lyrics: 1 Now thank we all our God

Who wondrous things hath done,
In Whom His world rejoices;

Hath blessed us on our way
With countless gifts of love,
And still is ours today.
2 O, may this bounteous God
Through all our life be near us,
With ever joyful hearts
And blessed peace to cheer us;
And keep us in His grace,
And guide us when perplexed,
And free us from all ills
In this world and the next.
3 All praise and thanks to God
The Father, now be given,
The Son, and Him who reigns
With them in highest Heaven.
The one eternal God,
Whom earth and Heaven adore;
For thus it was, is now,
And shall be evermore.

O God, the Rock of Ages
Author: Edward H. Bickersteth Hymnal: BWHT1899 #78 (1899) 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!
Amen. Topics: Brevity of Life; God Eternal and Unchangeable; God Our Refuge; Praise To God Languages: English Tune Title: MIRIAM
O God, the Rock of Ages
From all who dwell below the skies
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: BWHT1899 #79 (1899) Lyrics: 1 From all who dwell below the skies
Let the Creator's praise arise;
Let the Redeemer's name be sung
Through every land, by every tongue.
2 Eternal are Thy mercies, Lord:
Eternal truth attends Thy word,
Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore,
Till suns shall rise and set no more.
3 Your lofty themes, ye mortals, bring;
In songs of praise divinely sing;
The great salvation loud proclaim,
And shout for joy the Saviour's name.
4 In every land begin the song:
To every land the strains belong;
In cheerful sounds all voices raise,
And fill the world with loudest praise.
Amen. Topics: God Creator; God Mercies of; God Truth of; Praise To God Languages: English Tune Title: DUKE STREET

Of Thy majestic sway!

That Thou th'eternal Father art,
Of boundless majesty.

The universal King.

He gave the seas their bound;
The watery worlds are all His own,
And all the solid ground.

Come, bow before the Lord:
We are His work and not our own,
He formed us by His word.

Nor dare provoke His rod:
Come, like the people of His choice,
And own your gracious God!
