All praise and thanks to God most High

Author: Schutz Hymnal: Chorale Book for England, The #2 (1863) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: All praise and thanks to God most High, The Father who is perfect love; The God who doeth wondrously, The God who from His throne above My soul with richest solace fills, The God who every sorrow stills; Give glory now to Him, our God! The host of heaven thy praises tell, All powers and thrones bow down to Thee, And all who in Thy shadow dwell, Alike in earth and air and sea, Declare and laud their Maker's might, Whose wisdom orders all things right: Give glory then to Him, our God! And for the creatures He hath made, Our God will ceaselessly provide, His grace will be their constant aid, And guard them round on every side; His kingdom ye may surely trust, There all is equal, all is just; Give glory then to Him, our God! I sought Him In my hour of need, I cried,--Lord God, now hear my prayer! For death He gave me life indeed, And hope and comfort for despair; For this my thanks shall endless be, O thank Him, thank Him too with me; Give glory now to Him, our God! The Lord is never far away, Is never sundered from His flock, He is their refuge and their stay, He is their peace, their trust, their rock; And with a mother's watchful love He guides them wheresoe'er they rove: Give glory then to Him, our God! Ah yes! till life hath reached its bound, My faithful God, I'll worship Thee! The chorus of Thy praise shall sound From henceforth over land and sea. Oh soul and body, now rejoice, My heart, send forth a gladsome voice; Give glory now to Him, our God! All ye who name Christ's holy name, Give all the glory to our God! Ye who the Father's power proclaim, Give all the glory to our God! All idols under foot be trod, The Lord is God, the Lord is God! Give glory evermore to Him! Languages: English

Eternity! Eternity!

Author: Wülffer; Catherine Winkworth Hymnal: Lyra Germanica #11 (1861) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! And yet to thee Time hastes away, Like as the warhorse to the fray, Or swift as couriers homeward go, Or ship to port, or shaft from bow. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! For ever as on a perfect sphere End nor beginning can appear, Even so, Eternity, in thee Entrance nor exit can there be. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! A circle infinite art thou, Thy centre an Eternal Now, Never, we name thy outer bound, For never end therein is found. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! A little bird with fretting beak Might wear to nought the loftiest peak, Though but each thousand years it came, Yet thou wert then, as now, the same. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! As long as God is God, so long Endure the pains of sin and wrong, So long the joys of heaven remain; Oh lasting joy, Oh lasting pain! Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! O man, full oft thy thoughts should dwell Upon the pains of sin and hell, And on the glories of the pure, That both beyond all time endure. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! How terrible art thou in woe, How fair where joys for ever glow! God's goodness sheddeth gladness here, His justice there wakes bitter fear. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! They who lived poor and naked rest With God, for ever rich and blest, And love and praise the Highest Good, In perfect bliss and gladsome mood. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! A moment lasts all joy below, Whereby man sinks to endless woe, A moment lasts all earthly pain, Whereby an endless joy we gain. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! Who ponders oft on thee, is wise, All fleshly lusts will he despise, The world finds place with him no more; The love of vain delights is o'er. Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! Who marks thee well would say to God, Here judge, burn, smite me with Thy rod, Here let me all Thy justice bear, When time of grace is past, then spare! Ponder, O Man, Eternity! Eternity! Eternity! How long art thou, Eternity! Lo, I, Eternity, warn thee, O Man, that oft thou think on me, The sinner's punishment and pain, To them who love their God, rich gain! Ponder, O Man, Eternity!

O God, Most Holy Are Your Ways

Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #39 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, most holy are your ways, and who like you deserves my praise? You only do such wondrous things, the whole wide world your glory sings; your outstretched arm your people saved, though sore distressed and long enslaved. 2 O God, from you the waters fled, the depths were moved with mighty dread, the swelling clouds their torrents poured, and o'er the earth the tempest roared; 'mid lightning's flash and thunder's sound great trembling shook the solid ground. 3 Your way was in the sea, O God, through mighty waters, deep and broad. None understood but God alone, to man your footsteps were unknown; but safe your people you did keep, almighty Shepherd of your sheep.

Jesus, the name without compare

Author: Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: Hymns and Hymnwriters of Denmark #72 (1945) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: Jesus, the name without compare; Honored on earth and in heaven, Wherein the Father’s love and care Are to His children now given. Saviour of all that saved would be, Fount of salvation full and free Is the Lord Jesus forever. Jesus, the name alone on earth For our salvation afforded. So on His cross of precious worth Is in His blood it recorded. Only in that our prayers are heard, Only in that when hearts are stirred Doth now the Spirit us comfort. Jesus, the name above the sky Wherein, when seasons are ended, Peoples shall come to God on high, And every knee shall be bended, While all the saved in sweet accord Chorus the praise of Christ, the Lord, Savior beloved by the Father.

The Solid Rock

Author: Edward Mote Hymnal: Timeless Truths #78 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 First Line: My hope is built on nothing less Refrain First Line: On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand Lyrics: 1 My hope is built on nothing less Than Jesus' blood and righteousness; I dare not trust the sweetest frame, But wholly lean on Jesus' name. Refrain: On Christ, the solid Rock, I stand; All other ground is sinking sand, All other ground is sinking sand. 2 When darkness veils His lovely face, I rest on His unchanging grace; In every high and stormy gale, My anchor holds within the veil. [Refrain] 3 His oath, His covenant, His blood Support me in the whelming flood; When all around my soul gives way, He then is all my hope and stay. [Refrain] 4 When He shall come with trumpet sound, Oh, may I then in Him be found; Dressed in His righteousness alone, Faultless to stand before the throne. [Refrain] Scripture: Matthew 7:25-26 Tune Title: SOLID ROCK

Built on a Rock

Author: Nikolai F. S. Grundtvig; Carl Doving Hymnal: Praise for the Lord (Expanded Edition) #82 (1997) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 First Line: Built on a rock the church doth stand Lyrics: 1 Built on a rock the church doth stand, Even when steeples are falling; Crumbled have spires in ev'ry land, Bells still are chiming and calling; Calling the young and old to rest, Calling the souls of men distressed, Longing for life everlasting. 2 Not in our temples made with hands God, the Almighty, is dwelling; High in the heavens His temple stands, All earthly temples excelling; Yet He who dwells in heaven above Deigns to abide with us in love, Making our bodies His temple. 3 We are God's house of living stones, Built for His own habitation; He fills our hearts, His humble thrones, Granting us life and salvation; Were two or three to seek His face, He in their midst would show His grace, Blessings upon them bestowing. 4 Yet in this house, an earthly frame, Jesus the children is blessing; Hither we come to praise His Name, Faith in our Savior confessing; Jesus to us His Spirit sent, Making with us His covenant, Granting His children the kingdom.

Built on a rock the church of God

Author: Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig, 1783-1872; J. C. Aaberg Hymnal: Hymns and Hymnwriters of Denmark #84 (1945) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: Built on a rock the church of God Stands though its towers be falling; Many have crumbled beneath the sod, Bells still are chiming and calling, Calling the young and old to come, But above all the souls that roam, Weary for rest everlasting. God, the most high, abides not in Temples that hands have erected. High above earthly strife and sin, He hath his mansions perfected. Yet He, whom heavens cannot contain, Chose to abide on earth with man Making their body His temple. We are God’s house of living stones, Built for the Spirit’s indwelling. He at His font and table owns Us for His glory excelling. Should only two confess His name, He would yet come and dwell with them, Granting His mercy abounding. Even the temples built on earth Unto the praise of the Father, Are like the homes of hallowed worth Whence we as children did gather. Glorious things in them are said, God there with us His covenant made, Making us heirs of His kingdom. There we behold the font at which God as His children received us; There stands the altar where His rich Mercy from hunger relieved us. There His blest word to us proclaim: Jesus is now and e’er the same, So is His way of salvation. Grant then, O Lord, where’er we roam, That, when the church bells are ringing, People in Jesus’ name may come, Praising His glory with singing. “Ye, not the world, my face shall see; I will abide with you,” said He. “My peace I leave with you ever.” Languages: English
