Great God, whose universal sway

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #31 (2014) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: Great God, whose universal sway the known and unknown worlds obey, entrust the kingdom to your Son, extend his power, exalt his throne. Your sceptre well becomes his hands; all heaven submits to his commands. His justice shall defend the poor, and pride and rage prevail no more. Like rain on meadows newly mown, so Christ shall send his influence down; the beauty of his grace distills like heavenly dew on thirsty hills. The saints shall flourish in his days, dressed in the robes of joy and praise; peace, like a river, from his throne shall flow to nations yet unknown. Languages: English Tune Title: PUTNAM NEW

Grace dwells with justice on your throne

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #32 (2014) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 77 Lyrics: Grace dwells with justice on your throne, and those who love your word have heard your wisdom, and have known your heavenly counsels, Lord. I'll think again of all your ways, and talk your wonders o'er: — the wonders of recovering grace, when flesh could hope no more. I will forbid a hopeless thought, some dark, despairing claim, remembering good your hand has wrought; your hand is still the same! I'll meditate your works of old; our God, who reigns above; I'll hear your ancient wonders told, and learn to trust your love. Languages: English Tune Title: SOVEREIGN POWER

God, help us make your glories known

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #33 (2014) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Scripture: Psalm 78 Lyrics: God, help us make your glories known, your works of power and grace: and we'll convey your wonders on to each and every race, remembering how you split the sea, and showed a pathway through; the watery walls defined the way as Israelites fled their foe. Your wondrous pillar marked their road, a guide of shade and light; by day it proved a sheltering cloud, a leading fire by night. Their need for water was supplied, abundant waters fell! A rock gushed rivers by their side — a constant miracle. And manna, like a morning shower, lay thick around their feet: the corn of heaven, so light, so pure, was their angelic meat. God, all may learn that you alone are where our hope shall stand, for we can see your glorious works, and yield to your commands Languages: English Tune Title: FARLEIGH WICK

How pleasant, how divinely fair

The sparrow chooses where to rest, and for her young provides a nest; God, even sparrows will obtain the pleasure which your children gain. Blest are the ones whose hearts are set to find the pathway to your gate; you are their strength; and through the road they lean upon your help, O God. Languages: English Tune Title: HOBBIE

You are our sun, you bless our day; and you our shield, to guard our way from all assaults of hell and sin, from foes without, from foes within. All needful grace will you bestow, and crown that grace with glory too; you give us all things, and withhold no heavenly good from upright souls. O God our King, whose sovereign sway the glorious hosts of heaven obey; all thrones and kingdoms are your own! Let praise and joy now fill our song. Languages: English Tune Title: MORROW

Let all the earth, all time and space

God, I’ll sing praises to your name, and in your strength rejoice; when your salvation is my theme, exalted be my voice! You give the angels charge to keep my feet in all your ways; they watch my pillow while I sleep, and guard my waking days. Their hands shall bear me, lest I fall and dash against the stones; are they not servants at your call, to guard your faithful ones? "Because you set your love on me, I'll save you," (says the Lord); "I'll keep your soul most willingly, with my all-powerful word. For those to whom my name is known, I'll honour them in heaven; there my salvation shall be shown, and endless life be given." Languages: English Tune Title: MY SONG

Lord, it's a pleasant thing to stand

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #40 (2014) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 92 Lyrics: Lord, it’s a pleasant thing to stand in gardens planted by your hand; that is the place I would be seen like palm or cedar, fresh and green. There grow your saints in faith and love, blessed with your influence from above; not Lebanon, with all its trees, yields such a comely sight as these. Well blessed with fruits of life, they show that God is holy, just, and true. All who approach your gates shall find that you are faithful, good, and kind.
