Let heav'n arise, let earth appear
Hymnal: IPH2004 #R1 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Genesis 1 Lyrics: 1 Let heav’n arise, let earth appear,
said the Almighty Lord:
the heav’n arose, the earth appear'd,
at his creating word.
2 Thick darkness brooded o’er the deep:
God said, ‘Let there be light:’
the light shone forth with smiling ray,
and scatter'd ancient night.
3 He bade the clouds ascend on high;
the clouds ascend, and bear
a wat’ry treasure to the sky,
and float upon the air.
4 The liquid element below
was gather'd by his hand;
the rolling seas together flow,
and leave the solid land.
5 With herbs, and plants, and fruitful trees,
the new-form'd globe he crown'd,
ere there was rain to bless the soil,
or sun to warm the ground.
6 Then high in heav’n’s resplendent arch
he plac'd two orbs of light,
he set the sun to rule the day,
the moon to rule the night.
7 Next, from the deep, th’ Almighty King
did vital beings frame;
fowls of the air of ev'ry wing,
and fish of ev'ry name.
8 To all the various brutal tribes
he gave their wondrous birth;
at once the lion and the worm
sprung from the teeming earth.
9 Then, chief o’er all his works below,
at last was Adam made;
his maker’s image bless'd his soul,
and glory crown'd his head.
10 Fair in the Almighty Maker’s eye
the whole creation stood;
he view'd the fabric he had rais'd;
his word pronounc'd it good. Languages: English Tune Title: ST FLAVIAN

Naked as from the earth we came
Hymnal: IPH2004 #R3 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Job 1:21 Lyrics: 1 Naked as from the earth we came,
and enter'd life at first;
naked we to the earth return,
and mix with kindred dust.
2 Whate’er we fondly call our own
belongs to heav’n’s great Lord;
the blessings lent us for a day
are soon to be restor'd.
3 ’Tis God that lifts our comforts high,
or sinks them in the grave:
he gives; and, when he takes away,
he takes but what he gave.
Then, ever blessed be his name!
his goodness swell'd our store;
his justice but resumes its own;
’tis ours still to adore.

Naked as from the earth we came
How still and peaceful is the grave!
Hymnal: IPH2004 #R4a (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Job 3:17-20 Lyrics: 1 How still and peaceful is the grave!
where, life’s vain tumults past,
th’ appointed house, by Heav’n’s decree,
receives us all at last.
2 The wicked there from troubling cease;
their passions rage no more;
and there the weary pilgrim rests
from all the toils he bore.
3 There rest the pris’ners, now releas'd
from slav'ry’s sad abode;
no more they hear th’ oppressor’s voice,
or dread the tyrant’s rod.
4 There servants, masters, small and great,
partake the same repose;
and there, in peace, the ashes mix
of those who once were foes.
5 All, levell'd by the hand of Death,
lie sleeping in the tomb;
till God, in judgment calls them forth,
to meet their final doom. Languages: English Tune Title: COLESHILL

Though trouble springs not from the dust
Hymnal: IPH2004 #R5 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Job 5:6-12 Lyrics: 1 Though trouble springs not from the dust,
nor sorrow from the ground;
yet ills on ills, by Heav’n’s decree,
in man’s estate are found.
2 As sparks in close succession rise,
so man, the child of woe,
is doom'd to endless cares and toils
through all his life below.
3 But with my God I leave my cause;
from him I seek relief;
to him, in confidence of pray'r
unbosom all my grief.
4 Unnumbered are his wondrous works,
unsearchable his ways;
’tis his the mourning soul to cheer,
the bowed down to raise. Languages: English Tune Title: ST PETER (REINAGLE)
