Let all the earth their voices raise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: PHDW1835 #1 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: Let all the earth their voices raise To sing the choicest psalm of praise, To sing and bless Jehovah's name: His glory let the heathens know, His wonders to the nations show, And all his saving works proclaim. The heathens know thy glory, Lord, The wond'ring nations read thy word, In Britain is Jehovah known: Our worship shall no more be paid To gods which mortal hands have made; Our Maker is our God alone. He framed the globe, he built the sky, He made the shining worlds on high, And reigns complete in glory there: His beams are majesty and light; His beauties, how divinely bright! His temple, how divinely fair! Come the great day, the glorious hour, When earth shall feel his saving power, And barb'rous nations fear his name; Then shall the race of man confess The beauty of his holiness, And in his courts his grace proclaim.

My God, my King, thy various praise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: PHDW1835 #2 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: My God, my King, thy various praise Shall fill the remnant of my days; Thy grace employ my humble tongue Till death and glory raise the song. The wings of every hour shall bear Some thankful tribute to thine ear; And every setting sun shall see New works of duty done for thee. Thy truth and justice I'll proclaim; Thy bounty flows an endless stream; Thy mercy swift, thine anger slow, But dreadful to the stubborn foe. Thy works with sovereign glory shine, And speak thy majesty divine; Let Britain round her shores proclaim The sound and honor of thy name. Let distant times and nations raise The long succession of thy praise, And unborn ages make my song The joy and labor of their tongue. But who can speak thy wondrous deeds? Thy greatness all our thoughts exceeds? Vast and unsearchable thy ways, Vast and immortal be thy praise!

Thy grace shall dwell upon my tongue; And while my lips rejoice, The men that hear my sacred song Shall join their cheerful voice. Fathers to sons shall teach thy name, And children learn thy ways; Ages to come thy truth proclaim, And nations sound thy praise.

Jehovah reigns; he dwells in light

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: PHDW1835 #7 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: Jehovah reigns; he dwells in light, Girded with majesty and might: The world, created by his hands, Still on its first foundation stands. But ere this spacious world was made, Or had its first foundation laid, Thy throne eternal ages stood, Thyself the ever-living God. Like floods, the angry nations rise, And aim their rage against the skies; Vain floods, that aim their rage so high! At thy rebuke the billows die. For ever shall thy throne endure; Thy promise stands for ever sure; And everlasting holiness Becomes the dwellings of thy grace.

The Lord of glory reigns, he reigns on high

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: PHDW1835 #8 (1835) Meter: 10.10.10.10.11.11 Lyrics: The Lord of glory reigns, he reigns on high; His robes of state are strength and majesty: This wide creation rose at his command, Built by his word and 'stablished by his hand: Long stood his throne ere he began creation, And his own Godhead is the firm foundation. God is th' eternal King: thy foes in vain Raise their rebellions to confound thy reign; In vain the storms, in vain the floods arise, And roar, and toss their waves against the skies: Foaming at heav'n, they rage with wild commotion, But heav'n's high arches scorn the swelling ocean. Ye tempests, rage no more; ye floods, be still; And the mad world submissive to his will: Built on his truth, his church must ever stand; Firm are his promises, and strong his hand: See his own sons, when they appear before him, Bow at his footstool, and with fear adore him.

The Lord Jehovah reigns

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: PHDW1835 #9 (1835) Meter: 6.6.8.6.6.8 Lyrics: The Lord Jehovah reigns, And royal state maintains, His head with awful glories crowned; Arrayed in robes of light, Begirt with sovereign might, And rays of majesty around. Upheld by thy commands, The world securely stands; And skies and stars obey thy word: Thy throne was fixed on high Before the starry sky; Eternal is thy kingdom, Lord. In vain the noisy crowd, Like billows fierce and loud, Against thine empire rage and roar; In vain, with angry spite, The surly nations fight, And dash like waves against the shore. Let floods and nations rage, And all their powers engage; Let swelling tides assault the sky; The terrors of thy frown Shall beat their madness down: Thy throne for ever stands on high. Thy promises are true, Thy grace is ever new: There fixed, thy church shall ne'er remove; Thy saints with holy fear Shall in thy courts appear, And sing thine everlasting love.

Lord! thou hast search'd and seen me thro'

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: PHDW1835 #10 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: Lord, thou hast searched and seen me through, Thine eye commands with piercing view My rising and my resting hours, My heart and flesh with all their powers. My thoughts, before they are my own, Are to my God distinctly known; He knows the words I mean to speak Ere from my op'ning lips they break. Within thy circling power I stand; On every side I find thy hand; Awake, asleep, at home, abroad, I am surrounded still with God. Amazing knowledge, vast and great! What large extent! what lofty height! My soul, with all the powers I boast, Is in the boundless prospect lost. O may these thoughts possess my breast, Where'er I rove, where'er I rest! Nor let my weaker passions dare Consent to sin, for God is there. Could I so false, so faithless prove, To quit thy service and thy love, Where, Lord, could I thy presence shun. Or from thy dreadful glory run? If up to heav'n I take my flight, 'Tis there thou dwell'st enthroned in light Or dive to hell, there vengeance reigns, And Satan groans beneath thy chains. If, mounted on a morning ray, I fly beyond the western sea, Thy swifter hand would first arrive, And there arrest thy fugitive. Or should I try to shun thy sight Beneath the spreading veil of night, One glance of thine, one piercing ray, Would kindle darkness into day. O may these thoughts possess my breast, Where'er I rove, where'er I rest! Nor let my weaker passions dare Consent to sin, for God is there. The veil of night is no disguise, No screen from thy all-searching eyes; Thy hand can seize thy foes as soon Through midnight shades as blazing noon. Midnight and noon in this agree, Great God, they're both alike to thee; Not death can hide what God will spy, And hell lies naked to his eye. O may these thoughts possess my breast, Where'er I rove, where'er I rest! Nor let my weaker passions dare Consent to sin, for God is there.
