O worship the King all-glorious above
Author: Robert Grant, 1779-1838 Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Appears in 1,139 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing his power and his love:
our shield and defender, the ancient of days,
pavilioned in splendour, and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might, O sing of his grace,
whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
his chariots of wrath the deep thunder-clouds form,
and dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
3 The earth with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, your power has founded of old,
established it fast by a changeless decree,
and round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea.
4 Your bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,
it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
in you do we trust, nor find you to fail:
your mercies how tender, how firm to the end,
Our maker, defender, redeemer and friend.
6 O measureless might, ineffable love.
While angels delight to hymn you above,
the humbler creation, though faltering their praise,
With true adoration shall sing all their days.

To conquer all evil
And stand for the right.

And praise him for aye.

To war against sin,
Thro' night and thro' storm
The battle to win.
Tho' tempests be raging,
Continue the fight;
Look ever to Jesus,
With Him there is light.

Thy fear-stricken heart,
Tho' yielding to pain
Thy peace should depart,
Tho' faintness possess thee
And joy take to flight,
Tell Jesus thy trouble,
With Him there is light.
3 Tho' dark be the night
And strife may be long,
Tho' idols stand firm
And capture the throng,
Look hopefully upward,
Keep Jesus in sight;
The heavens are open:
With Him there is light. Topics: Confirmation Used With Tune: CONQUEST

Where wide sky rolls down

Where wide sky rolls down
The Name of our God
Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Appears in 10 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Name of our God
In Israel is known;
His mansion beloved
Is Sion alone:
There broke He the arrows
The enemy hurl'd,
And honour'd His mountain
Above all the world.
2 The pride of Thy foes
Is turn'd to Thy praise;
Their fierceness o'erruled
Thy providence sways;
Their sin overflowing
Thy power will restrain;
Thy arm on the wicked
New glory will gain.
3 Ye nations, to God
Vow homage sincere;
Devote to Him gifts,
Love, worship, and fear;
Before Him, ye mighty,
Your spirits repress;
Ye high and ye humble,
His wonders confess.
Hymnal: according to the use of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, 1871
