Heav'n Has Confirmed The Great Decree

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Heav’n has confirmed the great decree Lyrics: 1 Heav’n has confirmed the great decree, That Adam’s race must die: One general ruin sweeps them down, And low in dust they lie. 2 Ye living men, the tomb survey, Where you must quickly dwell; Hark how the awful summons sounds In every funeral knell! 3 Once you must die, and once for all; The solemn purport weigh; For know, that Heav’n and Hell are hung On that important day. 4 Those eyes, so long in darkness veiled, Must wake the Judge to see. And every word, and every thought Must pass His scrutiny. 5 O may I in the Judge behold My Savior and my friend, And far beyond the reach of death With all His saints ascend. Used With Tune: ST. ANNE Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scriptures, by Job Orton (J. Eddowes and J. Cotton, 1755)

God's law is perfect, and converts

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 40 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 7 God’s law is perfect, and converts the soul in sin that lies: God’s testimony is most sure, and makes the simple wise. 8 The statutes of the Lord are right, and do rejoice the heart: the Lord’s command is pure, and doth light to the eyes impart. 9 Unspotted is the fear of God, and doth endure for ever: the judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether. 10 They more than gold, yea, much fine gold, to be desired are: than honey, honey from the comb that droppeth, sweeter far. 11 Moreover, they thy servant warn how he his life should frame: a great reward provided is for them that keep the same. 12 Who can his errors understand? from secret faults me cleanse: 13 thy servant keep thou also back from all presumptuous sins; and do not suffer them to have dominion over me: I shall be righteous then, and clear from great transgression be. 14 The words which from my mouth proceed, the thoughts sent from my heart, accept, O Lord, for thou my strength and my Redeemer art.

O God, what time thou didst go forth

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 7 O God, what time thou didst go forth before thy people’s face; and when through the great wilderness thy glorious marching was; 8 then at God’s presence shook the earth, then drops from heaven fell; this Sinai shook before the Lord, the God of Israel. 9 O God, thou to thine heritage didst send a plenteous rain, whereby thou, when it weary was, didst it refresh again. 10 Thy congregation then did make their habitation there: of thine own goodness for the poor, O God, thou didst prepare. 11 The Lord himself did give the word, the word abroad did spread; great was the company of them the same who published. 12 Kings of great armies foiled were, and forced to flee away; and women, who remained at home, distributed the prey. 13 Though ye have lain among the pots, like doves ye shall appear, whose wings with silver, and with gold whose feathers covered are. 14 When there the Almighty scattered kings, like Salmon’s snow ‘twas white. 15 A hill of God is Bashan's hill, a towering hill for height. 16 Why do ye frown, ye mountains high, upon the hill of God? Here God desires to dwell, the Lord for aye will make abode. Scripture: Psalm 68:7-16 Used With Tune: ST ANNE

O Lord, do thou bow down thine ear

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, do thou bow down thine ear, and hear me graciously; because I sore afflicted am, and am in poverty. 2 Because I’m holy, let my soul by thee preserved be: O thou, my God, thy servant save, that puts his trust in thee. 3 Since unto thee all day I cry, be merciful to me. 4 Rejoice thy servant’s soul; for, Lord, I lift my soul to thee. 5 For thou art very gracious, Lord, and ready to forgive; and rich in mercy, all that call upon thee to relieve. 6 Hear, Lord, my prayer; unto the voice of my request attend: 7 in troublous times I’ll call on thee, for thou wilt answer send. 8 Lord, there is none among the gods that may compare with thee; and to the works which thou hast done, no works can likened be. 9 All nations whom thou mad’st shall come and worship reverently before thy face; and they, O Lord, thy name shall glorify. 10 Because thou art exceeding great, and works by thee are done which are to be admired; and thou art God thyself alone. 11 Teach me thy way, and in thy truth, O Lord, then walk will I; unite my heart, that I thy name may fear continually. 12 O Lord my God, with all my heart to thee I will give praise; and I the glory will ascribe unto thy name always: 13 Because thy mercy toward me in greatness doth excel, and thou delivered hast my soul out from the lowest hell. 14 O God, the proud against me rise, and violent have met, who for my soul have sought; and thee before them have not set. 15 But thou, Lord, art a gracious God and most compassionate; long-suffering, and slow to wrath, in truth and mercy great. 16 O turn to me thy countenance, and mercy on me have; thy servant strengthen, and the son of thine own handmaid save. 17 Show me a sign for good, that they which do me hate may see, and be ashamed: because thou, Lord, didst help and comfort me.

Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Lord, thou hast been our dwelling-place in generations all. 2 Before thou ever hadst brought forth the mountains great or small; ere ever thou hadst formed the earth, and all the world abroad; thou even from everlasting art to everlasting God. 3 Thou, Lord, unto destruction dost man that is mortal turn; and unto them thou sayest, Again, ye sons of men, return. 4 Because a thousand years appear no more before thy sight than yesterday when it is past, or than a watch by night. 5 As with an overflowing flood thou carriest them away: they like a sleep are, like the grass that grows at morn are they. 6 At morn it flourishes and grows, cut down at even doth fade. 7 For by thine anger we’re consumed, thy wrath makes us afraid. 8 Our sins thou and iniquities dost in thy presence place, and sett’st our secret faults before the brightness of thy face. 9 For in thine anger all our days do pass on to an end; and as a tale that hath been told, so we our years do spend. 10 Threescore and ten years do sum up our days and years, we see; or if, by reason of more strength, in some fourscore they be; yet doth the strength of such old men but grief and labour prove; for it is soon cut off, and we fly hence, and soon remove. 11 Who knows thine anger's power, and keeps thy fear before his eyes? 12 To count our days so teach thou us that our hearts may be wise.

Author: Fanny Crosby Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Hail, sacred morn! when from the tomb The Son of God arose, "Captivity He captive led," And triumphed o’er His foes. 2 Rejoice oh, holy church, rejoice Awake thy noblest strain, Put off thy weeds of mourning now, The Savior lives again. 3 Oh! let thy loud hosannahs reach The portals of the sky, While angels tune their gentle harps And heav’nly choirs reply. 4 "Glory to God He ever lives To plead our cause above, He, He is worthy to receive All honor, power, and love. 5 "Hail, mighty King! we at Thy feet Our grateful homage pay, Accept the humble sacrifice, And wash our sins away. 6 "Then at the resurrection morn, When the last trump shall sound, May we awake to life anew, And with Thy saints be found."
