Blest be our everlasting Lord

Author: C. Wesley Appears in 60 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Blest be our everlasting Lord, Our Father, God, and King! Thy sovereign goodness we record, Thy glorious power we sing. 2 By Thee the victory is given: The majesty divine, Wisdom and might, and earth and heaven, And all therein are Thine. 3 The kingdom, Lord, is Thine alone, Who dost Thy right maintain, And, high on Thine eternal throne, O’er men and angels reign. 4 Riches, as seemeth good to Thee, Thou dost, and honor give; And kings their power and dignity Out of Thy hand receive. 5 Thou hast on us the grace bestowed, Thy greatness to proclaim; And therefore now thank we our God, And praise Thy glorious Name. 6 Thy glorious Name, Thy nature’s powers, Thou hast to man made known; And all the Deity is ours, Through Thy incarnate Son.

With Songs and Honors Sounding Loud

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 279 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 With songs and honors sounding loud address the Lord on high; over the heav'ns he spreads his cloud, and waters veil the sky. 2 He sends his show'rs of blessing down to cheer the plains below; he makes the grass the mountains crown, and corn in valleys grow. 3 His steady counsels change the face of the declining year; he bids the sun cut short his race, and wintry days appear. 4 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow, descend and clothe the ground; the liquid streams forbear to flow, in icy fetters bound. 5 He sends his word and melts the snow; the fields no longer mourn; he calls the warmer gales to blow, and bids the spring return. 6 The changing wind, the flying cloud, obey his mighty word; with songs and honors sounding loud praise ye the sovereign Lord.

Sin and Divine Patience

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 First Line: Their God and Saviour they forgot Lyrics: 1 Their God and Saviour they forgot, Their helper and their stay, But Moses plead the promised grace And turned God's wrath away. 2 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, The promised land of God, And tempted Him to make them fall And scatter them abroad. 3 They sacrificed to heathen gods, And God their sin repaid; Then holy wrath avenged the wrong, And so the plague was stayed. 4 The Lord approved the righteous act Of him who sin abhorred, And honored him for evermore With just and great reward. 5 By wicked strife they angered God, His wrath they did provoke; And, stirred by their rebellious cries, Their leader rashly spoke. 6 Ensnared, they served the heathen gods, And by them were beguiled; The blood of children sacrificed The very land defiled. 7 Against His own inheritance Jehovah's wrath arose, His chosen people He condemned To serve their heathen foes. 8 Though from their harsh oppressors' hand Ofttimes He set them free, Rebellious still, they were brought low In their iniquity. 9 When unto God they cried, he heard And turned again His face, In boundless love remembering The covenant of His grace. 10 He even touched their captors' hearts, And made their very foes Compassionate and pitiful To feel his people's woes. 11 Save us, O Lord, our gracious God, From alien lands reclaim That we may triumph in Thy praise And bless Thy holy Name. 12 Blessed be the Lord our covenant God, All praise to Him accord; Let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye, praise ye the Lord.
