O God, Our Help in Ages Past
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,240 hymnals Topics: Descants Lyrics: 1 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
our shelter from the stormy blast,
and our eternal home!
2 Under the shadow of thy throne
still may we dwell secure;
sufficient is thine arm alone,
and our defense is sure.
3 Before the hills in order stood,
or earth received her frame,
from everlasting thou art God,
to endless years the same.
4 A thousand ages, in thy sight,
are like an evening gone;
short as the watch that ends the night
before the rising sun.
5 Time, like an ever-rolling stream,
soon bears us all away;
we fly forgotten, as a dream
dies at the opening day.
6 O God, our help in ages past,
our hope for years to come,
be thou our guide while life shall last,
and our eternal home. Scripture: Psalm 90:1-5 Used With Tune: ST. ANNE

O Worship the King
Author: Sir Robert Grant Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Appears in 1,143 hymnals Topics: Hymns with Descants Lyrics: 1 O worship the King,
all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing
his power and his love;
our shield and defender,
the Ancient of Days,
pavilioned in splendor,
and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might,
O sing of his grace,
whose robe is the light,
whose canopy, space.
His chariots of wrath
the deep thunderclouds form,
and dark is his path
on the wings of the storm.
3 This earth with its store
of wonders untold,
Almighty, thy power
hath founded of old;
hath 'stablished it fast
by a changeless decree,
and round it hath cast,
like a mantle, the sea.
4 Thy bountiful care
what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air,
it shines in the light;
it streams from the hills,
it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distills
in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust,
and feeble as frail,
in thee do we trust,
nor find thee to fail;
thy mercies how tender,
how firm to the end!
Our maker, defender,
redeemer, and friend.
6 O measureless Might,
ineffable love!
While angels delight
to hymn thee above,
thy humbler creation,
though feeble their lays,
with true adoration
shall sing to thy praise.
Scripture: Psalm 104:1-5 Used With Tune: HANOVER

God of glory, Lord of love;
hearts unfold like flowers before thee,
opening to the sun above.
Melt the clouds of sin and sadness,
drive our fear and doubt away;
giver of immortal gladness,
fill us with the light of day.
All thy works with joy surround thee,
earth and heaven reflect thy rays,
stars and angels sing around thee,
center of unbroken praise.
Field and forest, vale and mountain,
flowery meadow, flashing sea,
chanting bird and flowing fountain
call us to rejoice in thee.
Thou art giving and forgiving,
ever blessing, ever blest,
well-spring of the joy of living,
ocean depth of happy rest!
Thou the Father, Christ our Brother,
all who live in love are thine;
teach us how to love each other,
lift us to the joy divine.
Mortals, join the happy chorus;
stars of morning, take your part;
love divine is reigning o'er us,
binding those of tender heart.
Ever singing, move we onward,
victors in the midst of strife,
joyful music lifts us sunward
in the triumph song of life. Used With Tune: HYMN TO JOY

Give to Our God Immortal Praise
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 321 hymnals Topics: Hymns with Descants Lyrics: 1 Give to our God immortal praise:
mercy and truth are all His ways;
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat His mercies in your song.
2 Give to the Lord of lords renown;
the King of kings with glory crown:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when lords and kings are known no more.
3 He built the earth, he spread the sky,
and fixed the starry lights on high:
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat his mercies in your song.
4 He fills the sun with morning light;
he bids the moon direct the night;
his mercies ever shall endure,
when suns and moons shall shine no more.
5 He sent his Son with power to save
from guilt and darkness and the grave;
wonders of grace to God belong;
repeat his mercies in your song.
6 Through this vain world he guides our feet,
and leads us to his heavenly seat:
his mercies ever shall endure,
when this our world shall be no more.
