• [Mzm 90:1] Lord, Thou Hast Been Our Dwelling Place

  Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place Through all the ages of our race; Before the mountains had their birth, Or Thou hadst formed the earth; From everlasting Thou art God, To everlasting our abode. Man soon yields up his fleeting breath Before the swelling tide of death; Like transient sleep his seasons pass, His life is like the tender grass, Luxuriant ’neath the morning sun And withered ere the day is done. Man in Thine anger is consumed, And unto grief and sorrow doomed; Before Thy clear and searching sight Our secret sins are brought to light; Beneath Thy wrath we pine and die, Our life expiring like a sigh. For threescore years and ten we wait, Or fourscore years if strength be great; But grief and toil attend life’s day, And soon our spirits fly away; O who with true and reverent thought Can fear Thine anger as he ought? O teach Thou us to count our days And set our hearts on wisdom’s ways Turn, Lord, to us in our distress In pity now Thy servants bless; Let mercy’s dawn dispel our night, And all our day with joy be bright. O send the day of joy and light, For long has been our sorrow’s night; Afflicted through the weary years, We wait until Thy help appears; In all Thy children Thou abide, In us let God be glorified. So let there be on us bestowed The beauty of the Lord our God; The work accomplished by our hand Establish Thou, and make it stand; Yea, let our hopeful labor be Established evermore by Thee.

• [Mzm 90:1] Lord, Thou Hast Been Our Dwelling Place (gill)

  Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place In every generation; Thy people still have known Thy grace, And blessed Thy consolation; Through every age Thou heard’st our cry; Through every age we found Thee nigh, Our Strength and our Salvation. Our cleaving sins we oft have wept, And oft Thy patience provèd; But still Thy faith we fast have kept, Thy Name we still have lovèd; And Thou hast kept and loved us well, Hast granted us in Thee to dwell, Unshaken, unremovèd. No, nothing from those arms of love Shall Thine own people sever; Our Helper never will remove, Our God will fail us never. Thy people, Lord, have dwelt in Thee, Our dwelling place Thou still wilt be, For ever and for ever.

• [Mzm 90:1] Lord, Through All The Generations

  Lord, through all the generations Of the children of our race, In our fears and tribulations, Thou hast been our dwelling place. Ere the vast and wide creation By Thy word was caused to be, Or the mountains held their station, Thou art God eternally. Each succeeding generation At Thy mighty word appears; Thou dost count in time’s duration One day as a thousand years. Death, with swift and sudden warning, Calls us from life’s dream away, Like the grass, green in the morning, Withered ere the close of day. Long the clouds of evil lower; Bless us now with gladsome days; Let Thy servants see Thy power, Let their children learn Thy praise. On us let the grace and beauty Of the Lord our God remain, Strengthen us for noble duty That our work be not in vain.

• [Mzm 90:1] Our God, Our Help In Ages Past

  Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Our shelter from the stormy blast, And our eternal home. Under the shadow of Thy throne Thy saints have dwelt secure; Sufficient is Thine arm alone, And our defense is sure. Before the hills in order stood, Or earth received her frame, From everlasting Thou art God, To endless years the same. Thy Word commands our flesh to dust, “Return, ye sons of men:” All nations rose from earth at first, And turn to earth again. A thousand ages in Thy sight Are like an evening gone; Short as the watch that ends the night Before the rising sun. The busy tribes of flesh and blood, With all their lives and cares, Are carried downwards by the flood, And lost in following years. Time, like an ever rolling stream, Bears all its sons away; They fly, forgotten, as a dream Dies at the opening day. Like flowery fields the nations stand Pleased with the morning light; The flowers beneath the mower’s hand Lie withering ere ‘tis night. Our God, our help in ages past, Our hope for years to come, Be Thou our guard while troubles last, And our eternal home.

• [Mzm 90:2] Ere Mountains Reared Their Forms Sublime

  Ere mountains reared their forms sublime, Or Heav’n and earth in order stood, Before the birth of ancient time, From everlasting Thou art God. A thousand ages, in their flight, With Thee are as a fleeting day; Past, present, future, to Thy sight At once their various scenes display. But our brief life’s a shadowy dream, A passing thought that soon is o’er, That fades with morning’s earliest beam, And fills the musing mind no more. To us, O Lord, the wisdom give Each passing moment so to spend, That we at length with Thee may live Where life and bliss shall never end.

  Have mercy on us, God most high, Who lift our hearts to Thee; Have mercy on us worms of earth, Most holy Trinity. Most ancient of all mysteries! Before Thy throne we lie; Have mercy now, most Merciful, Most holy Trinity. When heaven and earth were yet unmade, When time was yet unknown, Thou, in Thy bliss and majesty, Didst live and love alone. Thou wert not born; there was no fount From which Thy Being flowed; There is no end which Thou canst reach; But Thou art simply God. How wonderful creation is, The work that Thou didst bless; And oh, what then must Thou be like, Eternal Loveliness! How beautiful the angels are, The saints how bright in bliss; But with Thy beauty, Lord, compared, How dull, how poor is this. O listen, then, most pitiful, To Thy poor creature’s heart: It blesses Thee that Thou art God; That Thou art what Thou art. Most ancient of all mysteries! Still at Thy throne we lie; Have mercy now, most Merciful, Most holy Trinity.

• [Mzm 90:2] Through Every Age, Eternal God

  Through every age, eternal God, Thou art our rest, our safe abode; High was Thy throne ere Heav’n was made, Or earth Thy humble footstool laid. Long hadst Thou reigned ere time began, Or dust was fashioned to a man; And long Thy kingdom shall endure When earth and time shall be no more. But man, weak man, is born to die, Made up of guilt and vanity; Thy dreadful sentence, Lord, was just, Return, ye sinners, to your dust. A thousand of our years amount Scarce to a day in Thine account; Like yesterday’s departed light, Or the last watch of ending night. Death, like an overflowing stream, Sweeps us away; our life’s a dream, An empty tale, a morning flower, Cut down and withered in an hour. Our age to seventy years is set; How short the time! how frail the state! And if to eighty we arrive, We rather sigh and groan than live. But O how oft Thy wrath appears, And cuts off our expected years! Thy wrath awakes our humble dread; We fear the power that strikes us dead. Teach us, O Lord, how frail is man; And kindly lengthen out our span, Till a wise care of piety Fit us to die, and dwell with Thee.

  Thou glorious God, before Whose face The generations pass away, As, to our eyes, the tender grace And marvel of each shining day! We thank Thee for the joy sublime Of years so radiant with Thy power That all the best of endless time Seems granted to the fleeting hour. We praise Thee for the surer right, The clearer message from above, The lengthening day, the shortening night, The wiser ministries of love. We bless Thee for the friends we miss, Who made our peace, and stilled our pain; We trust Thee on some height of bliss To bring them close to us again. We magnify Thy holy Name; And while in Thee our hearts rejoice, Strong be our wills, through praise and blame, To do the bidding of Thy voice.

• [Mzm 90:10] And Am I Only Born To Die?

  And am I only born to die? And must I suddenly comply With nature’s stern decree? What after death for me remains? Celestial joys, or hellish pains, To all eternity? How then ought I on earth to live, While God prolongs the kind reprieve And props the house of clay? My sole concern, my single care, To watch, and tremble, and prepare Against the fatal day. No room for mirth or trifling here, For worldly hope, or worldly fear, If life so soon is gone: If now the Judge is at the door, And all mankind must stand before The inexorable throne! No matter which my thoughts employ, A moment’s misery, or joy; But O! when both shall end, Where shall I find my destined place? Shall I my everlasting days With fiends, or angels spend? Nothing is worth a thought beneath But how I may escape the death That never, never dies; How make mine own election sure, And, when I fail on earth, secure A mansion in the skies. Jesus, vouchsafe a pitying ray, Be Thou my guide, be Thou my way To glorious happiness; Ah, write the pardon on my heart, And whensoe’er I hence depart, Let me depart in peace.

• [Mzm 90:10] And Let This Feeble Body Fail

  And let this feeble body fail, And let it droop and die; My soul shall quit the mournful vale, And soar to worlds on high; Shall join the disembodied saints, And find its long sought rest, That only bliss for which it pants, In my Redeemer’s breast. In hope of that immortal crown I now the cross sustain, And gladly wander up and down, And smile at toil and pain: I suffer out my threescore years, Till my Deliverer come, And wipe away His servant’s tears, And take His exile home. O what hath Jesus bought for me! Before my ravished eyes Rivers of life divine I see, And trees of paradise: I see a world of spirits bright, Who taste the pleasures there; They all are robed in spotless white, And conquering palms they bear. O what are all my sufferings here, If, Lord, Thou count me meet With that enraptured host to appear, And worship at Thy feet! Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, Take life or friends away, But let me find them all again In that eternal day.

• [Mzm 90:10] All Men Living Are But Mortal

  All men living are but mortal, Yea, all flesh must fade as grass; Only through death’s gloomy portal To eternal life we pass. This frail body here must perish Ere the heav’nly love joys it cherish, Ere it gain the free reward For the ransomed of the Lord. Therefore, when my God doth choose it, Willingly I’ll yield my life Nor will grieve that I should lose it, For with sorrows it was rife. In my dear Redeemer’s merit Peace hath found my troubled spirit, And in death my comfort this: Jesus’ death my source of bliss. Jesus for my sake descended My salvation to obtain; Death and hell for me are ended, Peace and hope are now my gain; Yea, with joy I leave earth’s sadness For the home of heav’nly gladness, Where I shall forever see God, the Holy Trinity. There is joy beyond our telling, Where so many saints have gone; Thousands, thousands, there are dwelling, Worshiping before the throne, There the seraphim are shining, Evermore in chorus joining: “Holy, holy, holy Lord! Triune God, for aye adored!” Patriarchs of sacred story And the prophets there are found; The apostles, too, in glory On twelve seats are there enthroned, All the saints that have ascended Age on age, through time extended, There in blissful concert sing Hallelujahs to their King. O Jerusalem, how glorious Dost thou shine, thou city fair! Lo, I hear the tone victorious Ever sweetly sounding there. Oh, the bliss that there surprises! Lo, the sun of morn now rises, And the breaking day I see That shall never end for me. Yea, I see what here was told me, See that wondrous glory shine, Feel the spotless robes enfold me, Know a golden crown is mine, Thus before the throne so glorious Now I stand a soul victorious, Gazing on that joy for aye That shall never pass away.

In vain these moments shall not pass, These golden hours be gone: Lord, I accept Thine offered grace, I bow before Thy throne. Now cleanse my soul from every sin By my Redeemer’s blood; Now let my flesh and soul begin The honors of my God. Let me no more my soul beguile With sin’s deceitful toys; Let cheerful hope, increasing still, Approach to heav’nly joys. My thankful lips shall loud proclaim The wonders of Thy praise, And spread the savor of Thy Name, Where’er I spend my days. On earth let my example shine, And when I leave this state, May Heav’n receive this soul of mine To bliss supremely great.

  The man who once has found abode Within the secret place of God, Shall with Almighty God abide, And in His shadow safely hide. I of the Lord my God will say, “He is my Refuge and my Stay; To Him for safety I will flee; My God, in Him my trust will be.” He shall with all protecting care Preserve thee from the fowler’s snare; When fearful plagues around prevail, No fatal stroke shall thee assail. His outspread pinions shall thee hide; Beneath His wings shalt thou confide; His faithfulness shall ever be A shield and buckler unto thee. No nightly terrors shall alarm; No deadly shaft by day shall harm; Nor pestilence that walks by night, Nor plagues that waste in noonday light. Because thy trust is God alone, Thy dwelling place the Highest One, No evil shall upon thee come, Nor plague approach thy guarded home.

  Now let us come before Him, With song and prayer adore Him, Who to our life hath given All needed strength from Heaven. The stream of years is flowing, And we are onward going, From old to new surviving And by His mercy thriving. In woe we often languish And pass through times of anguish Of wars and trepidation Alarming every nation. As mothers watch are keeping O’er children who are sleeping, Their fear and grief assuaging When angry storms are waging. So God His own is shielding And help to them is yielding. When need and woe distress them, His loving arms caress them. O Thou Who dost not slumber, Remove what would encumber Our work, which prospers never Unless Thou bless it ever. O God of mercy, hear us; Our Father, be Thou near us; Mid crosses and in sadness Be Thou our Fount of gladness. To all who bow before Thee And for Thy grace implore Thee, Oh, grant Thy benediction And patience in affliction. Be Thou a Helper speedy To all the poor and needy, To all forlorn a Father; Thine erring children gather. Be with the sick and ailing, Their Comforter unfailing; Dispelling grief and sadness, Oh, give them joy and gladness! Above all else, Lord, send us Thy Spirit to attend us, Within our hearts abiding, To Heav’n our footsteps guiding. All this Thy hand bestoweth, Thou Life, whence our life floweth. To all Thy Name confessing Grant, Lord, Thy New Year’s blessing!

  They have gone to the land where the patriarchs rest, Where the bones of the prophets are laid, Where the chosen of Israel the promise possessed, And Jehovah His mandate displayed. To the land where the Savior of sinners once trod, Where He labored and languished and died; Where He triumphed o’er death and ascended to God, As He captive captivity led. They have gone to the land where the Gospel’s glad sound Sweetly tuned by the angels above Was re-echoed on earth thro’ the regions around, In the accents of heavenly love. Where the Spirit descended in tokens of flame, The rich gifts of His grace to reveal; Where apostles wrought signs in Immanuel’s name, For the truth of their mission to seal. They have gone—the glad heralds of mercy—have gone, To the land where the martyrs once bled; Where the beasts and false prophet have since trodden down, The fair fabric that Zion had reared. Where the churches once planted, and watered, and blessed, With the dews of the Spirit distilled, Have been smitten, despoiled! and by heathen possessed, And the places that knew them defiled. They have gone, O Thou Shepherd of Israel! have gone, The glad mission in love to restore; Thou wilt never forsake them or leave them alone, Thy rich blessings we humbly implore. Let Thy blessing go with them—O be Thou their Shield From the shafts of the fowler that fly; O Thou Savior of sinners! Thine arm be revealed In Thy mercy and might from on high.

I bind this today to me forever By power of faith, Christ’s incarnation; His baptism in Jordan river, His death on Cross for my salvation; His bursting from the spicèd tomb, His riding up the heavenly way, His coming at the day of doom I bind unto myself today. I bind unto myself the power Of the great love of cherubim; The sweet ‘Well done’ in judgment hour, The service of the seraphim, Confessors’ faith, Apostles’ word, The Patriarchs’ prayers, the prophets’ scrolls, All good deeds done unto the Lord And purity of virgin souls. I bind unto myself today The virtues of the star lit heaven, The glorious sun’s life giving ray, The whiteness of the moon at even, The flashing of the lightning free, The whirling wind’s tempestuous shocks, The stable earth, the deep salt sea Around the old eternal rocks. I bind unto myself today The power of God to hold and lead, His eye to watch, His might to stay, His ear to hearken to my need. The wisdom of my God to teach, His hand to guide, His shield to ward; The word of God to give me speech, His heavenly host to be my guard. Against the demon snares of sin, The vice that gives temptation force, The natural lusts that war within, The hostile men that mar my course; Or few or many, far or nigh, In every place and in all hours, Against their fierce hostility I bind to me these holy powers. Against all Satan’s spells and wiles, Against false words of heresy, Against the knowledge that defiles, Against the heart’s idolatry, Against the wizard’s evil craft, Against the death wound and the burning, The choking wave, the poisoned shaft, Protect me, Christ, till Thy returning. Christ be with me, Christ within me, Christ behind me, Christ before me, Christ beside me, Christ to win me, Christ to comfort and restore me. Christ beneath me, Christ above me, Christ in quiet, Christ in danger, Christ in hearts of all that love me, Christ in mouth of friend and stranger. I bind unto myself the Name, The strong Name of the Trinity, By invocation of the same, The Three in One and One in Three.

  The shadows of the evening hours fall from the darkening sky; Upon the fragrance of the flowers the dews of evening lie; Before Thy throne, O Lord of Heav’n, we kneel at close of day; Look on Thy children from on high, and hear us while we pray. The sorrows of Thy servants, Lord, O do not now despise, But let the incense of our prayers before Thy mercy rise. The brightness of the coming night upon the darkness rolls; With hopes of future glory, chase the shadows from our souls. Slowly the rays of daylight fade, so fade within our heart The hopes in earthly love and joy, that one by one depart. Slowly the bright stars, one by one, within the heavens shine: Give us, O Lord, fresh hopes in heaven, and trust in things divine. Let peace, O Lord, Thy peace, O God, upon our souls descend; From midnight fears and perils, now our trembling hearts defend. Give us a respite from our toil; calm and subdue our woes. Through the long day we labor, Lord, O give us now repose.

  All praise be to God, whom all things obey, From angels and men for ever and aye: Who sendeth on earth the powers of His throne, His providence good and love to make known. His angels are they of countenance fair, The arm of His strength, His hand of kind care: His message of peace to us they reveal, His wisdom most high they seal or unseal. By martyrs of old they stood in the flame, And bade them not flinch, but call on God’s Name. Thro’ torment, thro’ shame, thro’ darkness of death They led without fear the sires of our faith. They stand with the few, they fight for the free, God’s reign to advance o’er land and o’er sea: And when the brave die or fall in the fight, Their spirits they bear to rest in God’s sight. For patience and toil a crown they prepare; They found for the meek a kingdom full fair; No famine nor plague ’gainst them doth prevail; Their bread cannot lack, their cruse cannot fail.

Thy face is hidden—they turn pale, With terror quake, with anguish burn; Their breath Thou givest to the gale; They die, and to their dust return.

Let us before His presence come With praise, and thankful voice; Let us sing psalms to Him with grace, And make a joyful noise. For God’s a great God, and great King; Above all gods He is. The depths of earth are in His hands; The heights of hills are His. To Him the spacious sea belongs, For He the same did make; The dry land also from His hands Its form at first did take. O come, and let us worship Him; Let us bow down withal, And on our knees before the Lord, Our Maker, let us fall.

  O come before the Lord, our King, And in His presence let us sing; Let us in glad and joyful lays The Rock of our salvation praise; Before Him come with thankful song, In joyful psalms His praise prolong. Almighty power the Lord maintains, Exalted over all He reigns; He holds the valleys in His hand, He makes the mighty mountains stand; To Him belong both land and sea, Creator of the world is He. O come and let us worship now, Before our Maker let us bow; We are His sheep and He our God, He feeds our souls in pastures broad; He safely leads us in the way; O come and heed His voice today. Take heed and harden not your heart As did your fathers, nor depart From God to follow in their ways; For with complaints instead of praise, With doubt instead of faith confessed, They put His mercy to the test. Take heed that ye provoke Him not As did your fathers, who forgot, With erring heart, God’s holy ways And grieved Him all their sinful days; To whom in wrath Jehovah sware, “My promised rest they shall not share.”

The depths of earth are in His hand, Her secret wealth at His command; The strength of hills that reach the skies, Subjected to His empire lies. O let us to His courts repair, And bow with adoration there; Down on our knees, devoutly all, Before the Lord, our Maker, fall.

Earth, with its caverns dark and deep, Lies in His spacious hand; He fixed the seas what bounds to keep, And where the hills must stand. Come, and with humble souls adore, Come, kneel before His face; O may the creatures of His power Be children of His grace!

  The God of holiness and love, His faithfulness I see above, Though I am prone to sin; But triumphing with His strong hand, I know with me He’ll ever stand, Till I reach Beulah Land. Oh, Jesus’ light and boundless grace! How blest was I to see His face, His life He did not spare; This sinner He in love did seek, Enabling me His Word to speak, I walk as child and heir. Yes, Jesus died upon the cross, To some it seems but pain and loss, But He the Lord obeyed; The Potter setting free His clay, To live above in endless day, With love that cannot fade. In that celestial home I’ll see My brothers, sisters, family, I long for His reward; Then Jesus will my soul embrace, A crown of life my sins replace, As long as I believe!

Laws divine to them were spoken From the pillar of the cloud; Sacred precepts, quickly broken! Fiercely then His vengeance flowed: He is holy; He is holy; To the dust their hearts were bowed. But their Father God forgave them When they sought His face once more: Ever ready was to save them, Tenderly did He restore: He is holy; He is holy; We too will His grace implore.

  Hark! how time’s wide sounding bell Strikes on each attentive ear! Tolling loud the solemn knell Of the late departed year: Years, like mortals, wear away, Have their birth, and dying day; Youthful spring, and wintry age, Then to others quit the stage. Sad experience may relate What a year the last has been! Crops of sorrow have been great, From the fruitful seeds of sin: O! what numbers gay and blithe, Fell by death’s unsparing scythe? While they thought the world their own, Suddenly he mowed them down. See how war, with dreadful stride, Marches at the Lord’s command, Spreading desolation wide, Through a once much-favored land: War, with heart and arms of steel, Preys on thousands at a meal; Daily drinking human gore, Still he thirsts, and calls for more. If the God, whom we provoke, Hither should His way direct; What a sin-avenging stroke May a land, like this, expect! They who now securely sleep, Quickly then, would wake and weep; And too late would learn to fear, When they saw the danger near. You are safe, who know His love, He will all His truth perform; To your souls a refuge prove From the rage of every storm: But we tremble for the youth; Teach them, Lord, Thy saving truth; Join them to Thy faithful few, Be to them a Refuge too.

• [Mzm 102:11] Twilight Is Falling

  Twilight is falling over the sea, Shadows are stealing dark on the lea; Borne on the night winds, voices of yore Come from the far off shore. Refrain Far away beyond the starlit skies, Where the love-light never, never dies, Gleameth a mansion, filled with delight, Sweet happy home so bright! Voices of loved ones, songs of the past, Still linger round me while life shall last; Lonely I wander, sadly I roam, Seeking that far off home. Refrain Come in the twilight, come, come to me! Bringing some message over the sea, Cheering my pathway while here I roam, Seeking that far off home. Refrain

• [Mzm 102:11] When On My Day Of Life

  When on my day of life the night is falling, And in the winds, from unsunned spaces blown, I hear far voices out of darkness calling My feet to paths unknown. Thou, who hast made my home of life so pleasant, Leave not its tenant when its walls decay; O Love divine, O Helper ever present, Be Thou my strength and stay! Be near me when all else is from me drifting— Earth, sky, home’s pictures, days of shade and shine, And kindly faces to my own uplifting The love which answers mine. I have but Thee, my Father; let Thy Spirit Be with me then to comfort and uphold; No gate of pearl, no branch of palm I merit, Nor street of shining gold. Suffice it if—my good and ill unreckoned, And both forgiven through Thy abounding grace— I find myself by hands familiar beckoned Unto my fitting place. Some humble door among Thy many mansions, Some sheltering shade where sin and striving cease, And flows forever through heaven’s green expansions The river of Thy peace. There from the music round about me stealing I fain would learn the new and holy song, And find at last, beneath Thy trees of healing, The life for which I long.

  While with ceaseless course the sun Hasted through the former year, Many souls their race have run, Never more to meet us here; Fixed in an eternal fate, They have done with all below; We a little longer wait, But how little—none can know. As the wingèd arrow flies Speedily the mark to find; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life’s rapid stream; Upwards, Lord, our spirits raise, All below is but a dream. Thanks for mercies past receive, Pardon of our sins renew; Teach us, henceforth, how to live With eternity in view: Bless Thy Word to young and old, Fill us with a Savior’s love; And when life’s short tale is told, May we dwell with Thee above.

Whose grace and care are endless And saved thee thro’ the past; Who leaves no suff’rer friendless, But rights the wronged at last.

God’s grace alone endureth, And children’s children yet shall prove How He with strength assureth The hearts of all that seek His love. In Heav’n is fixed His dwelling, His rule is over all; Angels, in might excelling, Bright hosts, before Him fall.

On swifter wings salvation flies; And if He lets His anger burn, How soon His frowns to pity turn.

So fathers their young sons chastise With gentle hand and melting eyes; The children weep beneath the smart, And move the pity of their heart.

He rides on the clouds, the wings of the storm, The lightning and wind His mission perform; The earth He has founded her station to keep, And wrapped as a vesture about her the deep. O’er mountain and plain the dark waters raged; His voice they obeyed, the floods were assuaged; Uplifting the mountains He ordered a bound, Forbidding the waters to cover the ground. He causes the springs of water to flow In streams ’mid the hills and valleys below; Beside them with singing the birds greet the day, And there the beasts gather their thirst to allay. He waters the hills with rain from the skies, And plentiful grass and herbs He supplies, Supplying the cattle, and blessing man’s toil With bread in abundance, with wine and with oil. The trees which the Lord has planted are fed, And over the earth their branches are spread; They keep in their shelter the birds of the air, The life of each creature the Lord makes His care. Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord.

• [Mzm 104:1] O Worship The King

  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. 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. The earth with its store of wonders untold, Almighty, Thy power hath founded of old; Established it fast by a changeless decree, And round it hath cast, like a mantle, the sea. 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. 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. O measureless might! Ineffable love! While angels delight to worship Thee above, The humbler creation, though feeble their lays, With true adoration shall all sing Thy praise. My foule praise the Lord, speake good of his Name, O Lord our great God how doeft thou appeare, So passing in glorie, that great is thy fame, Honour and maieftie, in thee fhine moft cleare. His chamber beames lie, in the clouds full fure, Which as his chariot, are made him to beare. And there with much fwitneff his courfe doth endure: Vpon the wings riding, of winds in the aire.

• [Mzm 104:19] Seasons Are Fixed By Wisdom Divine, The

  The seasons are fixed by wisdom divine, The slow-changing moon show forth God’s design; The sun in his circuit his Maker obeys, And running his journey hastes not nor delays. The Lord makes the night, when, leaving their lair, The lions creep forth, God’s bounty to share; The Lord makes the morning, when beasts steal away And men are beginning the work of the day. How many and wise Thy works are, O Lord! The earth with the wealth of wisdom is stored; The sea bears in safety the ships to and fro, And creatures unnumbered it shelters below. Thy creatures all look to Thee for their food; Thy hands open wide, they gather the good; Thy face Thou concealest, in anguish they yearn; Their breath Thou withholdest, to dust they return. Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. Before the Lord’s might earth trembles and quakes, The mountains are rent, and smoke from them breaks; The Lord I will worship through all of my days, Yea, while I have being my God I will praise. Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord.

  Savior, to Thee we raise our hymn of gladness; Once more at evening’s hour we look to Heav’n above; Far, far behind to leave earth’s toil and sadness— So resting only on Thy great redeeming love. May this day’s sins, we pray Thee, all be pardoned; Grant us Thy absolution, give Thy grace to cheer; O never let our hearts by sin be hardened, But keep our conscience tender, give us holy fear. Now day is done, and all its labors ended, Close Thou, O Lord, our weary eyes in gentle sleep; So may we ever be by Thee defended— O may Thy guardian angels round us vigil keep! Our souls restore, renew our pow’rs, and make us Strong in Thy strength to rise and greet the morning light; And at the last, O blessèd Savior, take us To dwell with Thee in that glad land which knows no night!

• [Mzm 105:1] O Praise The Lord, His Deeds Make Known

  O praise the Lord, His deeds make known, And call upon His Name; Sing ye to Him, His praises sing, His wondrous works proclaim. Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy Name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him forevermore. Ye children of God’s covenant, Who of His grace have heard, Forget not all His wondrous deeds And judgments of His Word. The Lord our God is God alone, All lands His judgments know; His promise He remembers still, While generations go. While yet our fathers were but few, Sojourners in the land, He sware that Canaan should be theirs, And made His covenant stand. He suffered none to do them wrong In all their pilgrim way; Yea, for their sake were kings reproved And covered with dismay. His stern command restrained their foes And filled them with alarm; “Touch not Mine own anointed ones, Nor do My prophets harm.” He wholly broke the staff of bread And called for famine sore, And He prepared His people’s way By sending one before. Then Joseph, sold to slavery, With cruel chains was bound; Till his prediction came to pass, Distress and grief he found. The king released him from his bonds And made him rule the land, Subjecting chiefs and senators To his controlling hand. To Egypt Israel followed then, And there grew great and strong, Until their friends became their foes And did them grievous wrong. God sent His servant Moses then, And Aaron, whom He chose; Great signs and wonders they displayed To terrify their foes. In darkness they were taught to fear God’s great and holy Name; On man and beast, on vine and field, His awful judgment came. He smote the first-born in the land, The chief of all their strength, Enriched His people with the spoil And brought them forth at length. He led them forth in health and strength, None weak in all their band, And Egypt, filled with fear, rejoiced To see them leave the land. He spread a cloud to cover them, Most glorious and bright, And made a fiery pillar shine To give them light by night. At their request He sent them quails, And bread of Heav’n bestowed; And from the rock, to quench their thirst, The living waters flowed. His sacred word to Abraham He kept, though waiting long, And brought His chosen people forth With joy and thankful song. The lands and toil of wicked men He gave them to possess, That they might keep His holy laws, Jehovah praise and bless. Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy Name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him forevermore.

• [Mzm 106:1] Praise Ye The Lord, For He Is Good

  Praise ye the Lord, for He is good; Give thanks and bless His Name; His lovingkindness changes not, From age to age the same. What tongue can tell His mighty deeds, His wondrous works and ways? O who can show His glory forth, Or utter all His praise? The Lord will bless and prosper those, Yea, blest indeed are they Whose ways are just, who constantly His righteous law obey. O Lord, remember me in grace, Let me salvation see; The grace Thou showest to Thy saints, That grace reveal to me. Let me behold Thy people’s good And in their joy rejoice; With Thy triumphant heritage Let me lift up my voice. In evil we have gone astray, And sinful is our race; Rebelliously our fathers walked, Forgetful of Thy grace. Though they rebelled, yet for their help In saving strength He came To make His power almighty known And glorify His Name. He brought them safely through the sea And overwhelmed their foes; Their faith was stirred, and for the time Their songs of praise arose. Forgetful soon, they tempted God Nor for His counsel cared; He sent them leanness in their souls, While they earth’s bounties shared. With envy they regarded those Whom God to them had sent; The opening earth, the kindling flame, Brought awful punishment. A golden image they adored, And worshipped at its shrine; Thus they despised the living God, And scorned His love divine. Their God and Savior they forgot, Their Helper and their Stay, But Moses pled the promised grace And turned God’s wrath away. Yea, they despised the pleasant land, The promised land of God, And tempted Him to make them fall And scatter them abroad. They sacrificed to heathen gods, And God their sin repaid; Then holy wrath avenged the wrong, And so the plague was stayed. The Lord approved the righteous act Of him who sin abhorred, And honored him forevermore With just and great reward. By wicked strife they angered God, His wrath they did provoke; And stirred by their rebellious cries, Their leader rashly spoke. Ensnared, they served the heathen gods, And by them were beguiled; The blood of children sacrificed The very land defiled. Against His own inheritance Jehovah’s wrath arose, His chosen people He condemned To serve their heathen foes. Though from their harsh oppressors’ hand Ofttimes He set them free, Rebellious still, they were brought low In their iniquity. When unto God they cried, He heard And turned again His face, In boundless love remembering The covenant of His grace. He even touched their captors’ hearts, And made their very foes Compassionate and pitiful To feel His people’s woes. Save us, O Lord, our gracious God, From alien lands reclaim, That we may triumph in Thy praise And bless Thy holy Name. Blest be the Lord our covenant God, All praise to Him accord; Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise ye, praise ye the Lord.

  O God, Thou bottomless abyss! Thee to perfection who can know? O height immense! What words suffice Thy countless attributes to show? Unfathomable depths Thou art; O plunge me in Thy mercy’s sea! Void of true wisdom is my heart; With love embrace and cover me: While Thee, all-infinite, I set By faith before my ravished eye, My weakness bends beneath the weight; O’erpowered I sink, I faint, I die. Eternity Thy fountain was, Which, like Thee, no beginning knew; Thou wast ere time began his race, Ere glowed with stars the ethereal blue. Greatness unspeakable is Thine, Greatness, whose undiminished ray, When short-lived worlds are lost, shall shine, When earth and Heaven are fled away. Unchangeable, all-perfect Lord, Essential life’s unbounded sea, What lives and moves, lives by Thy Word; It lives, and moves, and is from Thee. Thy parent-hand, Thy forming skill, Firm fixed this universal chain; Else empty, barren darkness still Had held his unmolested reign. Whate’er in earth, or sea, or sky, Or shuns or meets the wandering thought, Escapes or strikes the searching eye, By Thee was to perfection brought. High is Thy power above all height, Whate’er Thy will decrees is done; Thy wisdom, equal to Thy might, Only to Thee, O God, is known! Heaven’s glory is Thy awful throne, Yet earth partakes Thy gracious sway: Vain man! Thy wisdom folly own, Lost is thy reason’s feeble ray. What our dim eye could never see, Is plain and naked to Thy sight; What thickest darkness veils, to Thee Shines clearly as the morning light. In light Thou dwell’st; light that no shade, No variation, ever knew; Heaven, earth, and hell, stand all displayed, And open to Thy piercing view.
