Songs of praise the angels sang

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: CBWM1872 #13 (1890) Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang, Heaven with halleluias rang, When Jehovah's work begun, When He spake, and it was done. 2 Songs of praise awoke the morn, When the Prince of Peace was born; Songs of praise arose, when He Captive led captivity. 3 Heaven and earth must pass away; Songs of praise shall crown that day; God will make new heavens and earth; Songs of praise shall hail their birth. 4 And shall man alone be dumb, Till that glorious kingdom come? No;--the Church delights to raise Psalms, and hymns, and songs of praise. 5 Saints below, with heart and voice, Still in songs of praise rejoice; Learning here, by faith and love, Songs of praise to sing above. 6 Borne upon their latest breath, Songs of praise shall conquer death; Then, amidst eternal joy, Songs of praise their powers employ.

Mighty God, while angels bless Thee

Author: Robert Robinson Hymnal: CBWM1872 #14 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Mighty God, while angels bless Thee, May a mortal lisp Thy Name? Lord of men, as well as angels, Thou art every creature’s theme. 2 Lord of every land and nation, Ancient of eternal days! Sounded through the wide creation Be Thy just and lawful praise. 3 For the grandeur of Thy nature. Grand beyond a seraph’s thought; For created works of power, Works with skill and kindness wrought: 4 For Thy Providence, that governs Through thine empire's wide domain, Wings an angel, guides a sparrow: Blessed by Thy gentle reign. 5 But Thy rich, Thy free Redemption, Dark through brightness all along-- Thought is poor, and poor expression: Who dare sing that awful song! 6 From the highest throne in glory To the Cross of deepest woe! All to ransom guilty captives! Flow, my praise, for ever flow. Topics: Worship Praise and Thanksgiving Languages: English Tune Title: MERTON

Each blessing to my soul more dear, Because conferred by Thee. 4 In every joy that crowns my days, In every pain I bear, My heart shall find delight in praise, Or seek relief in prayer. 5 When gladness wings my favored hour, Thy Love my thoughts shall fill: Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower, My soul shall meet Thy will. 6 My lifted eye, without a tear, The gathering storm shall see; My steadfast heart shall know no fear: That heart will rest on Thee!

When all Thy mercies, O my God

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: CBWM1872 #17 (1890) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When all Thy mercies, O my God, My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wonder, love, and praise. 2 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart That tastes those gifts with joy. 3 Through every period of my life Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds, The glorious theme renew. 4 When nature fails, and day and night Divide Thy works no more, My ever grateful heart, O Lord, Thy mercy shall adore. 5 Through all eternity to Thee A joyful song I'll raise; For oh, eternity's too short To utter all Thy praise.

Alleluia! best and sweetest

Author: John Chandler Hymnal: CBWM1872 #20 (1890) Meter: 8.7 Lyrics: 1 Alleluia! best and sweetest Of the hymns of praise above! Alleluia! thou repeatest, Angel host, these notes of love. This ye utter, While your golden harps ye move. 2 Alleluia! Church victorious, Join the concert of the sky! Alleluia! bright and glorious, Lift, ye saints, this strain on high! We, poor exiles, Join not yet your melody. 3 Alleluia! strains of gladness Suit not souls with anguish torn: Alleluia! sounds of sadness Best become our state forlorn: Our offences We with bitter tears must mourn. 4 But our earnest supplication Holy God, we raise to Thee: Visit us with Thy salvation, Make us all Thy joys to see! Alleluia! Ours at length this strain shall be. Topics: Worship Praise and Thanksgiving; Septuagesima Sunday Languages: English Tune Title: ALLELUIA, DULCE CARMEN

O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace

Author: John Chandler; Ambrose, d. 397 Hymnal: CBWM1872 #21 (1890) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Jesus, Lord of heavenly grace, Thou Brightness of Thy Father's face, Thou Fountain of eternal light, Whose beams disperse the shades of night! 2 Come, holy Sun of heavenly love, Shower down Thy radiance from above; And to our inward hearts convey The Holy Spirit's cloudless ray. 3 And we the Father's help will claim, And sing the Father's glorious Name: His powerful succor we implore, That we may stand, to fall no more. 4 May He our actions deign to bless, And loose the bonds of wickedness; From sudden falls our feet defend, And guide us safely to the end. 5 May faith, deep-rooted in the soul, The flesh subdue, the mind control: May guile depart, and discord cease, And all within be joy and peace. 6 O hallowed thus be every day! Let meekness be our morning ray, And faithful love our noonday light, And hope our sunset, calm and bright. 7 O Christ, with each returning morn, Thine image to our hearts is borne: O may we ever clearly see Our Saviour and our God in Thee!
