Stand Up and Bless the Lord

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 398 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Stand up and bless the Lord, ye people of his choice; stand up and bless the Lord your God with heart and soul and voice. 2. Though high above all praise, above all blessing high, who would not fear his holy name, and laud and magnify? 3. O for the living flame from his own altar brought, to touch our lips, our minds inspire, and wing to heaven our thought! 4. God is our strength and song, and his salvation ours; then be his love in Christ proclaimed with all our ransomed powers. 5. Stand up and bless the Lord; the Lord your God adore; stand up and bless his glorious name, henceforth forevermore.

O Thou Who Art My King

Author: George H. Badger Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O Thou who art my king, Submissive to Thy law, I yield my soul, unquestioning, In reverential awe. 2 Father, who art in Heaven, Helpless I lean on Thee, And trust, each day, grace may be given To meet earth’s poverty. 3 O Comrade of life’s way, With all my strength I rise, Eager with Thee to serve each day, In love’s blest enterprise. 4 More dear than yielding will, Or faith’s humility, O God, is this deep-pulsing thrill Of comradeship with Thee.
