Lord of the worlds above

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #238b (1958) Scripture: Psalm 84 Lyrics: 1 Lord of the worlds above, How pleasant and how fair The dwellings of thy love, Thine earthly temples, are! To thine abode My heart aspires With warm desires To see my God. 2 O happy souls that pray Where God appoints to hear! O happy men that pay Their constant service there! They praise thee still; And happy they That love the way To Sion’s hill. 3 They go from strength to strength Through this dark vale of tears, Till each arrives at length, Till each in heaven appears: O glorious seat, When God our King Shall thither bring Our willing feet!

O worship the King, all glorious above

Author: Robert Grant, 1779 - 1838 Hymnal: SBHC1958 #163 (1958) Scripture: Psalm 104 Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all glorious above, O gratefully sing his wonderful 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 The 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 distils 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, The humbler creation, though feeble their lays, With true adoration shall sing to thy praise.
