While thee I seek, protecting Power

Author: Helen M. Williams Hymnal: SDAH1886 #81 (1886) Lyrics: 1 While thee I seek, protecting Power, Be my vain wishes stilled; And may this consecrated hour With better hopes be filled. 2 Thy love the power of thought bestowed, To thee my thoughts would soar; Thy mercy o'er my life has flowed; That mercy I adore. 3 In each event of life, how clear Thy ruling hand I see; Each blessing to my soul is 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; Because it rests on thee.

Thy goodness, Lord, our souls confess

Author: Thomas Gibbons Hymnal: SDAH1886 #82 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Thy goodness, Lord our souls confess, Thy goodness we adore; A spring whose blessings never fail, A sea without a shore. 2 Sun, moon, and stars, thy love attest In every cheerful ray; Love draws the curtain of the night, And love restores the day. 3 Thy bounty every season crowns With all the bliss it yields; With joyful clusters bend the vines, With harvests wave the fields. 4 But chiefly thy compassions, Lord, Are in the gospel seen; There like the sun, thy mercies shine Without a cloud between.

I sing the mighty power of God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #83 (1886) Lyrics: 1 I sing the mighty power of God, That made the mountains rise, That spread the flowing seas abroad, And built the lofty skies; I sing the wisdom that ordained The sun to rule the sky; The moon shines full at his command, And all the stars obey. 2 I sing the goodness of the Lord, That filled the earth with food; He formed the creatures with his word, And then pronounced them good. Lord, how thy wonders are displayed Where'er I turn my eye! If I survey the ground I tread, Or gaze upon the sky! 3 There's not a plant or flower below But makes thy glories known; And clouds arise, and tempests blow, By order from thy throne. Creatures that borrow life from thee Are subject to thy care; There's not a place where we can flee But God is present there. Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Tune Title: VARINA

Father, how wide thy glory shines!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #84 (1886) Lyrics: 1 Father, how wide thy glory shines! How high thy wonders rise! Known through the earth bycountless signs, By countless through the skies. Those mighty orbs proclaim thy power, Their motions speak thy skill; And on the wings of every hour We read thy patience still. 2 But, when we view thy strange design To save rebellious worms, Where vengeance and compassion join In their divinest forms, Here the whole Deity is known; Nor dares a creature guess Which of the glories brightest shone The justice, or the grace. 3 Now while the glories of the Lamb Adorn the heavenly plains; While seraphs chant Immanuel's name, And try their choicest strains, O may I bear some humble part In that immortal song! Wonder and joy shall tune my heart, And love command my tongue. Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Tune Title: VARINA

My Maker and my King

Author: Anne Steele Hymnal: SDAH1886 #85 (1886) Lyrics: 1 My Maker and my King, To thee my all I see; Thy sovereign bounty is the spring Whence all my blessings flow; Thy sovereign bounty is the spring Whence all my blessings flows. 2 The creature of thy hand, On thee alone I live; My God, thy benefits demand More praise than I can give. 3 Lord, what can I impart When all is thine before? Thy love demands a thankful heart; The gift, alas! how poor. 4 O! let thy grace inspire My soul with strength divine; Let every word and each desire And all my days be thine.

O Lord, our heavenly King

Next to thine angels he is placed, And lord of all below. 3 How rich thy bounties are, And wondrous are thy ways! In us O let thy power frame A monument of praise!

The God who rules on high

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #87 (1886) Lyrics: 1 The God who rules on high, And all the earth surveys, Who rides upon the stormy sky, And calms the roaring seas, 2 This awful God is ours, Our Father and our Love; He will send down his heavenly powers, To carry us above. 3 There we shall see his face, And never, never sin; There, from the rivers of his grace Drink endless pleasures in. 4 Yea, and before we rise To that immortal state, The thought of such amazing bliss Should constant joys create.

My soul, repeat His praise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #88 (1886) Lyrics: 1 My soul, repeat His praise, Whose mercies are so great; Whose anger is so slow to rise, So ready to abate. 2 High as the heavens are raised Above the ground we tread, So far the riches of his grace Our highest thoughts exceed. 3 The pity of the Lord, To those that fear his name, Is such as tender parents feel; He knows our feeble frame. 4 His power subdues our sins; And his forgiving love, Far as the east is from the west, Doth all our gilt remove.

How tender is thy hand

Author: Thomas Hastings Hymnal: SDAH1886 #89 (1886) Lyrics: 1 How tender is thy hand, O thou most gracious God! Afflictions come at thy command, And leave us at thy word. 2 How gentle is the rod That chastens us for sin! How soon we find a smiling God Where deep distress has been! 3 A Father's hand we feel, A Father's love we know; 'Mid tears of penitence we kneel, And find his promise true. 4 We tell him all our grief, We think of Jesus' love; A sense of pardon brings relief, And bids our pains remove. 5 Now will we bless the Lord, And in his strength confide; Forever be his name adored, For there is none beside.

O, bless the Lord, my soul!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: SDAH1886 #90 (1886) Lyrics: 1 O, bless the Lord, my soul! Let all within me join, And aid my tongue to bless his name, Whose favors are divine. 2 O, bless the Lord, my soul! Nor let his mercies lie Forgotten in unthankfulness, And without praises die. 3 'Tis he forgives thy sins, 'Tis he relieves thy pain, 'Tis he that heals thy sicknesses, And makes thee whole again. 4 He crowns thy life with love, When ransomed from the grave; He that redeemed my soul from hell Hath sovereign power to save. 5 He fills the poor with good, He gives the sufferers rest; The Lord hath judgments for the proud And justice for the oppressed. 6 His wondrous works and ways, To us he hath made known; And sent the world his truth and grace, By his beloved Son.
