Let All the Earth Their Voices Raise

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 166 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Let all the earth their voices raise To sing the choicest psalm of praise, To sing and bless Jehovah’s name: His glory let the heathens know, His wonders to the nations show, And all His saving works proclaim. 2. The heathens know Thy glory, Lord, The wondering nations read Thy Word, In Britain is Jehovah known: Our worship shall no more be paid To gods which mortal hands have made; Our maker is our God alone. 3. He framed the globe, He built the sky, He made the shining worlds on high, And reigns complete in glory there: His beams are majesty and light; His beauties, how divinely bright! His temple, how divinely fair! 4. Come the great day, the glorious hour, When earth shall feel His saving power, And barbarous nations fear His name; Then shall the race of man confess The beauty of His holiness, And in His courts His grace proclaim.

O could I speak the matchless worth

Author: Samuel Medley Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 738 hymnals Lyrics: O could I speak the matchless worth, O could I sound the glories forth Which in my Savior shine, I'd soar, and touch the heavenly strings, And vie with Gabriel while he sings In notes almost divine. I'd sing the characters he bears, And all the forms of love he wears, Exalted on his throne: In loftiest songs of sweetest praise, I would to everlasting days Make all his glories known. O the delightful day will come When my dear Lord will bring me home, And I shall see his face; Then with my Savior, Brother, Friend, A blest eternity I'll spend, Triumphant in his grace.

O Glorious Hope of Perfect Love

Author: John Wesley; Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 222 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O glorious hope of perfect love! It lifts me up to things above; It bears on eagles’ wings. It gives my ravished soul a taste, And makes me for some moments feast With Jesus’ priests and kings, With Jesus’ priests and kings. 2. Rejoicing now in earnest hope, I stand, and from the mountain top See all the lands below. Rivers of milk and honey rise, And all the fruits of paradise In endless plenty grow, In endless plenty grow. 3. A land of corn, and wine, and oil; Favored with God’s peculiar smile, With ev’ry blessing blest; There dwells the Lord our Righteousness, And keeps His own in perfect peace, And everlasting rest, And everlasting rest. 4. Oh, that I might at once go up; No more on this side of Jordan stop, But now the land possess; This moment end my legal years, Sorrows and sins, and doubts and fears, A howling wilderness, A howling wilderness!

Thou God of Glorious Majesty

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 98 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Thou God of glorious majesty, To Thee, against myself, to Thee, A worm of earth, I cry; A half-awakened child of man; An heir of endless bliss or pain; A sinner born to die! 2. Lo! on a narrow neck of land, ’Twixt two unbounded seas I stand, Secure, insensible; A point of time, a moment’s space, Removes me to that heavenly place, Or shuts me up in hell. 3. O God, mine inmost soul convert! And deeply on my thoughtful heart Eternal things impress: Give me to feel their solemn weight, And tremble on the brink of fate, And wake to righteousness. 4. Before me place, in dread array, The pomp of that tremendous day, When Thou with clouds shalt come, To judge the nations at Thy bar; And tell me, Lord, shall I be there To meet a joyful doom? 5. Be this my one great business here, With serious industry and fear Eternal bliss to ensure; Thine utmost counsel to fulfill, And suffer all Thy righteous will, And to the end endure. 6. Then, Savior, then my soul receive, Transported from this vale to live And reign with Thee above; Where faith is sweetly lost in sight, And hope in full supreme delight, And everlasting love.

O Thou, That Hear'st the Prayer of Faith

Author: Augustus M. Toplady Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 197 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Thou, that hear’st the prayer of faith, Wilt Thou not save a soul from death, That casts itself on Thee? I have no refuge of my own, But fly to what my Lord has done, And suffered, once for me. 2. Slain in the guilty sinner’s stead, His spotless righteousness I plead, And His atoning blood: Thy righteousness my robe shall be, Thy merit shall avail for me, And bring me near to God. 3. Then snatch me from eternal death, The Spirit of adoption breathe, His consolation send: By Him some word of life impart, And sweetly whisper to my heart, Thy maker is thy friend. 4. The king of terrors then would be A welcome messenger to me, To bid me come away: Unclogged by earth, or earthly things, I’d mount, I’d fly with eager wings, To everlasting day.

Thou Great Mysterious God Unknown

Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 Appears in 84 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Thou great mysterious God unknown, Whose love hath gently led me on, E’en from my infant days, Mine inmost soul expose to view, And tell me if I ever knew Thy justifying grace, Thy justifying grace. 2. If I have only known Thy fear, And followed, with a heart sincere, Thy drawings from above, Now, let the further grace bestow, And let my sprinkled conscience know Thy sweet forgiving love, Thy sweet forgiving love. 3. Father, in me reveal Thy Son, And to my inmost soul make known How merciful Thou art; The secret of Thy love reveal, And by Thy hallowing Spirit dwell Forever in my heart, Forever in my heart! 4. If now the witness were in me, Would He not testify of Thee, In Jesus reconciled? And should I not with faith draw nigh, And boldly, Abba, Father, cry, And know myself Thy child, And know myself Thy child? Used With Tune: ARIEL Text Sources: Redemption Hymns, 1747
