Praise Ye, Praise Ye the Lord

Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. Praise ye, praise ye the Lord in yonder heav’nly height; Ye angels, all His hosts, in joyful praise unite; O sun and moon, declare His might, Show forth His praise, ye stars of light. 2. Praise Him, ye highest heav’ns, praise Him, ye clouds that roll, Created by His pow’r and under His control, Ye heav’ns that stand eternally, Established by His firm decree. 3. Ye creatures in the sea and creatures on the earth, Your mighty maker praise and tell His matchless worth; Praise Him, ye stormy winds that blow, Ye fire and hail, ye rain and snow. 4. Ye hills and mountains, praise, each tree and beast and bird; Ye kings and realms of earth, now let your praise be heard; By high and low, by young and old Be all His praise and glory told. 5. By all let God be praised, for He alone is great; Above the earth and Heav’n He reigns in glorious state; Praise Him ye saints, who know His grace And ever dwell before His face.

Sweet Place

Author: Samuel Crossman Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 7 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: Sweet place; sweet place alone Refrain First Line: O happy place! Lyrics: 1. Sweet place; sweet place alone! The court of God most high, The heaven of heavens, the throne Of spotless majesty! Refrain O happy place! When shall I be, my God, with Thee, To see Thy face? 2. The stranger homeward bends, And sigheth for his rest: Heaven is my home, my friends Lodge there in Abraham’s breast. [Refrain] 3. Earth’s but a sorry tent, Pitched but a few frail days, A short leased tenement; Heaven’s still my song, my praise. [Refrain] 4. No tears from any eyes Drop in that holy choir: But death itself there dies, And sighs themselves expire. [Refrain] 5. There should temptations cease, My frailties there should end. There should I rest in peace In the arms of my best friend. [Refrain] 6. Jerusalem on high My song and city is, My home whene’er I die, The center of my bliss. [Refrain] 7. Thy walls, sweet city! thine With pearls are garnished, Thy gates with praises shine, Thy streets with gold are spread. [Refrain] 8. No sun by day shines there, No moon by silent night. O no! these needless are; The Lamb’s the city’s light. [Refrain] 9. There dwells my Lord, my king, Judged here unfit to live; There angels to Him sing, And lowly homage give. [Refrain] 10. The patriarchs of old There from their travels cease: The prophets there behold Their longed for Prince of Peace. [Refrain] 11. The Lamb’s apostles there I might with joy behold: The harpers I might hear Harping on harps of gold. [Refrain] 12. The bleeding martyrs, they Within those courts are found; All clothed in pure array, Their scars with glory crowned. [Refrain] 13. Ah me! ah me! that I In Kedar’s tents here stay; No place like this on high; Thither, Lord! guide my way. [Refrain] Used With Tune: DARWALL'S 148TH Text Sources: The Young Man's Meditation, 1664

And heaven resounds Immanuel's fame. 4 Now to the throne above Let every saint draw near; There dwells incarnate love; Grace sits triumphant there; See mercy smile, e'en on that throne Where once did wrath and justice frown.

Our Forebears Lived by Faith

Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Our forebears lived by faith, set free from self and sin, by faith drove demons out, by faith drew outcasts in: and left the church a heritage that shames a disbelieving age. 2 What godlessness destroys faith labors to restore; where doubt sees only change, faith finds an open door: and all who come to Jesus prove it's faith that makes the mountain move. 3 Then let us place ourselves in God's creative hands, anchored in faith, but free to do what God commands: not pris'ners of our heritage but born to serve the present age. 4 What need have we to wait for others to advance, for tides to turn, or folk be easier to convince? The time is now, and God is ours, with all the Spirit's mighty pow'rs.
