Worship the Lord in the Beauty of Holiness

Author: John Samuel Bewley Monsell (1811-1875) Meter: 12.10.12.10 Appears in 144 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; bow down before him, his glory proclaim; gold of obedience and incense of lowliness bring, and adore him: the Lord is his name. 2 Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness, high on his heart he will bear it for thee, comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness, guiding thy steps as may best for thee be. 3 Fear not to enter his courts in the slenderness of the poor wealth thou canst reckon as thine; truth in its beauty, and love in its tenderness, these are the offerings to lay on his shrine. 4 These, though we bring them in trembling and fearfulness, he will accept for the name that is dear; mornings of joy give for evenings of tearfulness, trust for our trembling, and hope for our fear. 5 Worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness; bow down before him, his glory proclaim; gold of obedience and incense of lowliness bring, and adore him; the Lord is his name!

Divine influences compared to rain

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 72:6 First Line: As showers on meadows newly mown Lyrics: 1 As showers on meadows newly mown, Jesus shall shed his blessings down, Crown'd with whose life-infusing drops, Earth shall renew her blissful crops. 2 Lands that beneath a burning sky, Have long been desolate and dry, Th' effusions of his love shall share, And sudden greens and herbage wear. 3 The dews and rains, in all their store, Drenching the pastures o'er and o'er, Are not so copious as that grace, Which sanctifies and saves our race. 4 As in soft silence vernal showers Descend, and cheer the fainting flowers, So in the secrecy of love Falls the sweet influence from above. 5 That heavenly influence let me find In holy silence of the mind, While every grace maintains it bloom, Diffusing wide its rich perfume. 6 Nor let these blessings be confin'd To me, but pour'd on all mankind, 'Till earth's wild wastes in verdure rise, And a young Eden bless our eyes.
