Sing Praise to God Who Reigns Above
Author: Johann J. Schütz, 1640-1690; Frances E. Cox, 1812-1897 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 194 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 36:5-8 Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God who reigns above,
The God of all creation,
The God of power, the God of love,
The God of our salvation;
With healing balm my soul he fills,
And ev'ry faithless murmur stills:
To God all praise and glory.
2 What God's almighty power has made,
His gracious mercy keeping;
By morning glow or evening shade
His watchful eye ne'er sleeping;
Within the kingdom of his might,
Lo! all is just and all is right:
To God all praise and glory.
3 Then all my gladsome way along,
I sing aloud your praises,
That all may hear the grateful song
My voice unwearied raises;
Be joyful in the Lord, my heart,
Both soul and body sing your part:
To God all praise and glory.
4 Let all who name Christ's holy name,
Give God all praise and glory;
All you who own his power, proclaim
Aloud the wondrous story!
Cast each false idol from its throne,
The Lord is God, and he alone:
To God all praise and glory. Topics: Creation; Holy Name; Kingdom/Reign of God; Morning Prayer Hymn; Music Ministry; Power of God; Praise; The Liturgical Year The Transfiguration of the Lord (August 6) Used With Tune: MIT FREUDEN ZART

Summer suns are glowing
Author: William Walsham How (1823-1897) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 239 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 36:5 Lyrics: 1 Summer suns are glowing
over land and sea;
happy light is flowing
bountiful and free.
Everything rejoices
in the mellow rays;
all earth's thousand voices
swell the psalm of praise.
2 See God's mercy streaming
over all the world,
and his banner gleaming
everywhere unfurled.
Broad and deep and glorious
as the heaven above,
shines in might victorious
his eternal love.
3 Lord, upon our blindness
your pure radiance pour;
for your loving-kindness
make us love you more.
And, when clouds are drifting
dark across the sky,
then, the veil uplifting,
Father, still be nigh.
4 We will never doubt you,
though you veil your light;
life is dark without you,
death with you is bright.
Light of light, shine o'er us
on our pilgrim way;
still go on before us
to the endless day. Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in times and seasons; Death and Bereavement; Light; Providence; Summer Used With Tune: RUTH
