My God, My King, Thy Various Praise

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 256 hymnals Matching Instances: 4 Lyrics: 1 My God, my King, thy various praise shall fill the remnant of my days; thy grace employ my humble tongue, till death and glory raise the song. 2 The wings of ev'ry hour shall bear some thankful tribute to thine ear. And ev'ry setting sun shall see new works of duty done for thee. 3 Thy truth and justice I'll proclaim; thy bounty flows, an endless stream; thy mercy swift; thine anger slow, but dreadful to the stubborn foe. 4 Let distant times and nations raise the long succession of thy praise; and unborn ages make my song the joy and labor of their tongue. 5 But who can speak thy wondrous deeds? Thy greatness all our thoughts exceeds; vast and unsearchable thy ways: vast and immortal be thy praise! Scripture: Psalm 145 Used With Tune: ST. BARTHOLOMEW

The winged squadrons of the sky look down with sad and wond'ring eyes to see th'approaching sacrifice. 4 Ride on! ride on in majesty! Thy last and fiercest strife is nigh; the Father on his sapphire throne awaits his own anointed Son. 5 Ride on! ride on in majesty!
