Let hearty thanks and praise be paid
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118 Lyrics: 1 Let hearty thanks and praise be paid
By all who join'd to pray;
When ardent pray'r to God was made,
To turn his wrath away.
2 We were deliver'd by the Lord,
When we were much distress'd;
Our feeble cries and pray'rs were heard,
And we have peace and rest.
3 Distress came on us like a flood,
And great was our alarm;
But through the mercies of our God
Our lives were kept from harm.
4 To God alone shall be our praise,
To him, and none besides;
His love, his mercy and his grace,
For all we need provides.
5 Then let us join his praise to sing,
As christians ought to do:
And worship him our Lord and King,
Who guards us here below. Topics: Thanksgiving for Peace

God Is Our Song
Author: Free Pratt Green, (1903-2000) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:14 First Line: God is our Song, and every singer blest Lyrics: 1 God is our Song, and every singer blest
Who praising Him finds energy and rest.
All who praise God with unaffected joy
Give back to us the wisdom we destroy,
Give back to us the wisdom we destroy.
2 God is our Song, for Jesus comes to save;
While praising Him we offer all we have.
New songs we sing, in ventures new unite,
When Jesus leads us upward into light,
When Jesus leads us upward into light.
3 This is the Song no conflict ever drowns;
Who praises God our human wrath disowns.
Love knows what rich complexities of sound
God builds upon a simple common ground,
God builds upon a simple common ground.
4 God is our Silence when no songs are sung,
When ecstasy or sorrow stills the tongue.
Glorious the faith which silently obeys
Until we find again the voice of praise,
Until we find again the voice of praise. Used With Tune: OLD 124th

Let All Exalt Jehovah's Goodness
O praise the Lord, for He is good
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118 Lyrics: 1 O praise the LORD, for He is good,
his mercies ne'er decay:
2 And that his mercies ever last,
let thankful Isr'el say.
3 Their sense of his eternal love
let Aaron's house declare:
4 And that it fails not, let all say,
all who Jehovah fear.
5 To the almighty JAH I cry'd
in my extreme distress;
And JAH, on high me heard,and brought
into this happy place.
6 The LORD is for me; I'll not fear
what man to me can do:
7 The LORD is with my helping friends;
and I will face my foe.
8 'Tis better on the LORD to trust,
than trust in man's defence;
9 Better to trust the LORD than place
in princes confidence.
[2 Part]
10 All nations round environ'd me,
design'd my fatal fall;
But in JEHOVAH's mighty name
I overcame them all.
11 They compass'd me, again, again,
and try'd my utter fall;
But in JEHOVAH's mighty name
I did subdue them all.
12 Like angry bees they round me swarm'd,
rag'd like a thorny flame;
Yet quenched and destroyed were,
but in JEHOVAH's name.
13 When they push'd hard to beat me down,
JEHOVAH helped me.
14 The mighty JAH my strength, my song,
and saving help is He.
15 In tents of righteous men is heard
the voice of health and joy:
The Lord's right hand gives mighty strength
and works most mightily,
16 JEHOVAH by his mighty pow'r
advances them on high:
The Lord's right hand gives mighty strength
and works most mightily.
[3 Part]
17 I shall not die, but longer live,
and gratefully declare
The works of our almighty JAH,
how wonderful they are.
18 For JAH hath sorely me chastiz'd,
till just of life bereav'd:
But kindly from the gates of death,
my fainting life repriev'd.
19 O set wide open now to me
the gates of righteousness;
And I will enter them, and there
the praise of JAH confess.
20 This gate, JEHOVAH's blessed gate,
into his house doth lead:
The righteous love to enter in;
and entring in are glad.
21 Among these righteous ones I'll be
and praise on Thee bestow;
For Thou hast heard me, and to Thee
I my salvation owe.
22 The stone the builders did despise,
and utterly disclaim,
Is now the chief and corner stone,
which bares up all the frame.
23 This work JEHOVAH's mighty pow'r
hath brought to pass alone;
And we in great amazement stand
to see what He hath done.
[4 Part
24 This is the great and blessed day
the LORD himself hath made;
And we will all therein rejoyce,
and be exceeding glad.
25 JEHOVAH we now Thee beseech
SALVATION TO AFFORD:
We humbly Thee entreat now send
prosperity, O LORD!
26 He that comes in JEHOVAH's name
O let him blessed be.
Out of JEHOVAH's house to you,
a blessing wish do we.
27 God is JEHOVAH, who to us
hath made his light to rise:
Bind therefore to his altar's horns
with cords, our sacrifice.
28 Thou art my God, and I'll proclaim
for evermore thy praise:
Thou art my God, and thy great name
my thankful song shall raise,
29 O to JEHOVAH give ye thanks;
immensely good is He,
Because his mercy doth endure
ev'n to eternity.
O praise the Lord, for He is good

Surrexit Christus (The Lord is Risen)
Confitemini
Author: N. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118 First Line: O give ye thanks unto the Lord Lyrics: 1 O give ye thanks unto the Lord,
for gracious is he:
Because his mercy doth endure
for ever towards thee.
2 Let Israel confesse and say,
his mercy dures for aye:
3 Now let the house of Aaron say,
his mercy dures for aye.
4 Let all that feare the Lord our God
even now confess and say,
The mercy of the Lord our God
endureth still for aye.
5 In trouble and in heavinesse
unto the Lord I cry'd,
Which lovingly heard me at large,
my suit was not deny'd.
6 The Lord himselfe is on my side,
I will not stand in doubt:
Nor feare what man can do to me,
when God stands me about.
7 The Lord doth take my part with them
that help to succour me:
Therefore I shall see my desire
upon mine enemy.
8 Better it is to trust in God,
than in mans mortall seed:
9 Or to put confidence in Kings,
or Princes in our need.
10 All nations have inclosed me,
and compassed me round:
But in the Name of God shall I
mine enemies confound.
11 They kept me in on every side,
they kept me in I say,
But in the Lord's most mighty Name
I shall work their decay.
12 They came about me all like Bees,
but yet in the Lord's Name
I quench'd their thorns that were on fire
and did destroy the same.
The second Part:
13 Thou hast with force thrust sore at me,
that I indeed might fall:
But through the Lord I found such help,
that they were vanquish'd all.
14 The Lord is my defence and strength,
my joy, my mirth, and song:
He is become to me indeed,
a Saviour most strong.
15 The right hand of the Lord our God
doth bring to passe great things:
He causeth voice of joy and health
in righteous mens dwellings.
16 The right hand of the Lord doth bring
most mighty things to passe:
His hand hath the preheminence,
his force is as it was.
17 I shall not die, but ever live
to utter and declare:
The Lord his might and wondrous power,
his works, and what they are.
18 The Lord himselfe hath chastened,
and hath corrected me:
But ahth not given me over yet
to death as ye may see.
19 Set open unto me the gates
of truth and righteousnesse:
That I may enter into them
The Lords praise for to expresse.
20 This is the gate even of the Lord,
which shall not so be shut:
But good and righteous men alway
may enter into it.
The third Part:
21 I will give thanks to thee O Lord,
because thou hast head me,
And art become most lovingly
a Saviour unto me.
22 The stone which ere this time among
the builders was refused:
Is now become the corner-stone,
and chiefly to be used.
23 This was the mighty work of God,
it was the Lords own fact:
And it is marvellous to behold
with eyes that noble act.
24 This is the joyfull day indeed,
which God himselfe hath wrought:
Let us be glad and joy therein,
in heart, in mind, and thought.
25 Now help us Lord, and prosper us,
we wish with one accord:
26 Blessed is he that comes to us
in thenName of the Lord.
27 God is the Lord that shews us light,
bind ye therefore with cord
Your sacrifice to the altar,
and give thanks to the Lord.
25 Thou art my God, I will confesse
and render thanks to thee:
Thou art my God, and I will praise
thy mercy towards me.
26 O give ye thanks unto the Lord,
for gracious is he;
Because his mercy doth endure
forever towards thee.

Make of Our Life a House of Praise
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b.1926 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 118:19-20 Lyrics: 1 Make of our life a house of praise
Where all, with one accord,
Unite to walk in Jesus' ways,
The temple of the Lord.
2 Here may we find our prayers are heard,
And grow in truth and grace,
Receive from Christ his holy word
And know his love's embrace.
3 May such a house of calm and peace
The Spirit strive to build;
Where kindliness and faith increase,
The storms of life are stilled.
4 Teach us our house of life to share,
That all who will may come,
The lost be doubly welcome there,
The wand'rer find a home.
5 So may our doors be open wide,
And life together prove
A house where God is glorified,
And a house of praise and love.
