Psalm 33 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 77 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33 First Line: Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord Lyrics:
Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord,
This work belongs to you;
Sing of his name, his ways, his word,
How holy, just, and true!
His mercy and his righteousness
Let heav'n and earth proclaim;
His works of nature and of grace
Reveal his wondrous name.
His wisdom and almighty word
The heav'nly arches spread,
And by the Spirit of the Lord
Their shining hosts were made.
He bid the liquid waters flow
To their appointed deep;
The flowing seas their limits know,
And their own station keep).
Ye tenants of the spacious earth,
With fear before him stand
He spake, and nature took its birth,
And rests on his command.
He scorns the angry nations' rage,
And breaks their vain designs;
His counsel stands through every age,
And in full glory shines.

Psalm 33 Part 2
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 40 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33 First Line: Blest is the nation where the Lord Lyrics:
Blest is the nation where the Lord
Hath fixed his gracious throne,
Where he reveals his heav'nly word,
And calls their tribes his own.
His eye with infinite survey
Does the whole world behold;
He formed us all of equal clay,
And knows our feeble mold.
Kings are not rescued by the force
Of armies from the grave;
Nor speed nor courage of a horse
Can the bold rider save.
Vain is the strength of beasts or men,
To hope for safety thence;
But holy souls from God obtain
A strong and sure defence.
God is their fear, and God their trust;
When plagues or famine spread,
His watchful eye secures the just
Among ten thousand dead.
Lord, let our hearts in thee rejoice,
And bless us from thy throne;
For we have made thy word our choice,
And trust thy grace alone.

Ye holy souls, in God rejoice,
Your Maker's praise becomes your voice;
Great is your theme, your songs be new:
Sing of his name, his word, his ways,
His works of nature and of grace,
How wise and holy, just and true!
Justice and truth he ever loves,
And the whole earth his goodness proves,
His word the heav'nly arches spread:
How wide they shine from north to south!
And by the spirit of his mouth
Were all the starry armies made.
He gathers the wide-flowing seas
(Those wat'ry treasures know their place)
In the vast storehouse of the deep:
He spake, and gave all nature birth;
And fires, and seas, and heav'n, and earth,
His everlasting orders keep.
Let mortals tremble and adore
A God of such resistless power,
Nor dare indulge their feeble rage:
Vain are your thoughts, and weak your hands;
But his eternal counsel stands,
And rules the world from age to age.

Psalm 33 Part 1
Psalm 33: Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33 First Line: Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice Lyrics:
1Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice;
it comely is and right,
That upright men, with thankful voice,
should praise the Lord of might.
2Praise God with harp, and unto him
sing with the psaltery;
Upon a ten-string’d instrument
make ye sweet melody.
3A new song to him sing, and play
with loud noise skilfully;
4For right is God’s word, all his works
are done in verity.
5To judgment and to righteousness
a love he beareth still;
The loving-kindness of the Lord
the earth throughout doth fill.
6The heavens by the word of God
did their beginning take;
And by the breathing of his mouth
he all their hosts did make.
7The waters of the seas he brings
together as an heap;
And in storehouses, as it were,
he layeth up the deep.
8Let earth, and all that live therein,
with rev’rence fear the Lord;
Let all the world’s inhabitants
dread him with one accord.
9For he did speak the word, and done
it was without delay;
Established it firmly stood,
whatever he did say.
10God doth the counsel bring to nought
which heathen folk do take;
And what the people do devise
of none effect doth make.
11O but the counsel of the Lord
doth stand for ever sure;
And of his heart the purposes
from age to age endure.
12That nation blessed is, whose God
Jehovah is, and those
A blessed people are, whom for
his heritage he chose.
13The Lord from heav’n sees and beholds
all sons of men full well:
14He views all from his dwelling-place
that in the earth do dwell.
15He forms their hearts alike, and all
their doings he observes.
16Great hosts save not a king, much strength
no mighty man preserves.
17An horse for preservation
is a deceitful thing;
And by the greatness of his strength
can no deliv’rance bring.
18Behold on those that do him fear
the Lord doth set his eye;
Ev’n those who on his mercy do
with confidence rely.
19From death to free their soul, in dearth
life unto them to yield.
20Our soul doth wait upon the Lord;
he is our help and shield.
21Sith in his holy name we trust,
our heart shall joyful be.
22Lord, let thy mercy be on us,
as we do hope in thee.
Psalm 33: Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice
There's a Wideness in God's Mercy
Author: Frederick W. Faber, 1814-1863 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 900 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33 Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy
Like the wideness of the sea;
There’s a kindness in God's justice
Which is more than liberty.
There is plentiful redemption
In the blood that has been shed;
There is joy for all the members
In the sorrows of the Head.
2 For the love of God is broader
Than the measures of our mind,
And the heart of the Eternal
Is most wonderfully kind.
If our love were but more simple
We should take him at his word,
And our lives would be thanksgiving
For the goodness of our Lord.
3 Troubled souls, why will you scatter
Like a crowd of frightened sheep?
Foolish hearts, why will you wander
From a love so true and deep?
There is welcome for the sinner
And more graces for the good;
There is mercy with the Savior,
There is healing in his blood.

Psalm 33 Part 2
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 30 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33 First Line: O happy nation, where the Lord Lyrics:
O happy nation, where the Lord
Reveals the treasure of his word,
And builds his church, his earthly throne!
His eye the heathen world surveys,
He formed their hearts, he knows their ways;
But God their Maker is unknown.
Let kings rely upon their host,
And of his strength the champion boast;
In vain they boast, in vain rely;
In vain we trust the brutal force,
Or speed, or courage, of a horse,
To guard his rider or to fly.
The eye of thy compassion, Lord,
Doth more secure defence afford
When death or dangers threat'ning stand:
Thy watchful eye preserves the just,
Who make thy name their fear and trust,
When wars or famine waste the land.
In sickness, or the bloody field,
Thou our physician, thou our shield,
Send us salvation from thy throne:
We wait to see thy goodness shine;
Let us rejoice in help divine,
For all our hope is God alone.

Let all the Just to God with Joy
Appears in 44 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33 Lyrics: 1 Let all the Just to God with Joy

For well the Righteous it becomes
to sing glad Songs of Praise.
2,3 Let Harps, and Psalteries, and Lutes
in joyful Concert meet;
And new-made Songs of loud Applause
the Harmony complete.
4,5 For faithful is the Word of God
His Works with Truth abound:
He Justice loves; and all the Earth
is with His Goodness crown'd.
6 By his Almighty Word, at first
Heav'n's glorious Arch was rear'd;
And all the beauteous Hosts of light
at his Command appear'd.
7 The swelling Floods, together roll'd,
He makes in Heaps to lie;
And lays, as in a Store-house, safe,
the watry Treasures by.
8,9 Let Earth and all that dwell therein,
before Him trembling stand;
For, when he spake the Word, 'twas made:
'twas fix'd at his Command.
10 He, when the Heathen closely plot,
their counsels undermines;
His Wisdom ineffectual makes
the Peoples rash Designs.
11 Whate'er the mighty Lord decrees,
shall stand for ever sure;
The settled Purpose of his Heart
to Ages shall endure.
Part II
12 How happy then are they to whom
the Lord for God is known!
Whom He, from all the World besides,
has chosen for his own.
13,14,15 He all the Nations of the Earth
from Heav'n, his Throne, survey'd:
He saw their Works, and view'd their Thoughts;
by him their Hearts were made.
16,17 No King is safe by num'rous Hosts;
their Strength the Strong deceives;
No manag'd horse, by Force or Speed,
his Warlike Rider saves.
18, 19 'Tis God, who those that trust in Him,
beholds with gracious Eyes:
He frees their Soul from Death; their Want,
in time of Dearth, supplies.
20,21 Our Soul, our God with Patience waits;
our Help and Shield is He!
Then, Lord, let still our Hearts rejoice,
because we trust in Thee.
22 The Riches of thy Mercy, Lord,
do Thou to us extend;
Since we, for all we want or wish,
on Thee alone depend.

Transported with the view, I’m lost

My daily thanks employ;
Nor is the last a cheerful heart
That tastes those gifts with joy.

And after death, in distant worlds,
The glorious theme renew.

Divide Thy works no more,

Thy mercy shall adore.

A joyful song I’ll raise;
But, oh! eternity’s too short
To utter all Thy praise.

every tongue confess him King of glory now;
'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord,
who from the beginning was the mighty Word.
2 At his voice creation sprang at once to sight:
all the angel faces, all the hosts of light,
thrones and dominations, stars upon their way,
all the heavenly orders in their great array.
3 Humbled for a season, to receive a name
from the lips of sinners, unto whom he came;
faithfully he bore it spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious when from death he passed;
4 bore it up triumphant with its human light,
through all ranks of creatures, to the central height,
to the throne of Godhead, to the Father's breast;
filled it with the glory of that perfect rest.
5 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue
all that is not holy, all that is not true.
Look to him, your Savior, in temptation's hour;
let his will enfold you in its light and power.
6 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again,
with his Father's glory, o'er the earth to reign;
for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow,
and our hearts confess him King of glory now. Topics: Church Year Ascension; Church Year Christ the King; Powers of Darkness; Jesus Christ King; Jesus Christ Lord; Jesus Christ Name of; Jesus Christ Reign; Jesus Christ Second Coming; Submission Used With Tune: KING'S WESTON
