Before the Throne of God above

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Matching Instances: 3 Lyrics: 1 Before the Throne of God above The glorious angels stand; Their only wish, their only joy, To do their Lord's command. 2 Some ever bow before His face, And praise Him all day long, And sing in never-ending strains Their blessed joyous song. 3 These holy Angels never choose, And never wish nor ask For other work than what God gives To be their daily task. 4 And we must like the Angels be-- Not choosing good or ill, But humbly striving day by day To do God's only will. Amen. Used With Tune: S. CYRIL

O God, give ear unto my cry

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 32 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 O God, give ear unto my cry; unto my prayer attend. 2 From the utmost corner of the land my cry to thee I’ll send. What time my heart is overwhelmed and in perplexity, do thou me lead unto the Rock that higher is than I. 3 For thou hast for my refuge been a shelter by thy power; And for defence against my foes thou hast been a strong tower. 4 Within thy tabernacle I for ever will abide; and under covert of thy wings with confidence me hide. 5 For thou the vows that I did make, O Lord, my God, didst hear: thou hast given me the heritage of those thy name that fear. 6 A life prolonged for many days thou to the king shalt give; as many generations are the years which he shall live. 7 He in God’s presence his abode for evermore shall have, O do thou truth and mercy both prepare, that may him save. 8 And so will I perpetually sing praise unto thy name; that having made my vows, I may each day perform the same.

How lovely is thy dwelling-place

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 52 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 How lovely is thy dwelling-place, O Lord of hosts, to me! The tabernacles of thy grace how pleasant, Lord, they be! 2 My thirsty soul longs veh’mently, yea faints, thy courts to see; my very heart and flesh cry out, O living God, for thee. 3 Behold, the sparrow findeth out an house wherein to rest; the swallow also for herself provided hath a nest; even thine own altars, where she safe her young ones forth may bring, O thou almighty Lord of hosts, who art my God and King. 4 Blest are they in thy house that dwell, they ever give thee praise. 5 Blest is the man whose strength thou art, in whose heart are thy ways: 6 who as they pass through Baca’s vale, make it a place of springs, also the rain that falleth down rich blessing to it brings. 7 So they from strength unwearied go still forward unto strength, until in Zion they appear before the Lord at length. 8 Lord God of hosts, my prayer hear; O Jacob’s God, give ear. 9 See, God our shield, look on the face of thine anointed dear. 10 For in thy courts one day excels a thousand; rather in my God’s house will I keep a door, than dwell in tents of sin. 11 For God the Lord’s a sun and shield: he’ll grace and glory give; and will withhold no good from them that uprightly do live. 12 O thou that art the Lord of hosts, that man is truly blest, who with assured confidence on thee alone doth rest.

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Thus spoke the Saviour of the world, and rais'd his eyes to heav’n: To thee, O Father! Lord of all, eternal praise be given. 2 Thou to the pure and lowly heart hast heav’nly truth reveal'd; which from the self-conceited mind thy wisdom hath conceal'd. 3 Ev’n so! thou, Father, hast ordain'd thy high decree to stand; nor men nor angels may presume the reason to demand. 4 Thou only know’st the Son: from thee my kingdom I receive; and none the Father know but they who in the Son believe. 5 Come then to me, all ye who groan, with guilt and fears opprest; resign to me the willing heart, and I will give you rest. 6 Take up my yoke, and learn of me the meek and lowly mind; and thus your weary troubled souls repose and peace shall find. 7 For light and gentle is my yoke; the burden I impose Shall ease the heart, which groan'd before beneath a load of woes.
