O worship the King all-glorious above
Author: Robert Grant, 1779-1838 Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Appears in 1,142 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.

In armour of light,
With helmet and sword,
With shield for the fight;
On prayer be dependent,
Be belted and shod,
In breastplate resplendent:
The armour of God.

The truth of His Word
As truth in your heart;
His righteousness wearing
As breastplate of mail,
His victory sharing,
Be strong to prevail.

Stand firm in your place,
Or go forth for God
With news of His grace;
No foe shall disarm you
Nor force you to yield,
No arrow can harm you
With faith as your shield.

To test you and try,
In helmet and plume
Your head shall be high;
Beset by temptation
Be true to your Lord,
Your helmet salvation
And Scripture your sword.
5 So wield well your blade,
Rejoice in its pow'rs,
Fight on undismayed
For Jesus is ours!
Then in Him victorious
Your armour lay down,
To praise, ever glorious,
His cross and His crown.

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.

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.

Ye Servants of God

Your master proclaim,
And publish abroad
His wonderful name:
The name all victorious
Of Jesus extol;
His kingdom is glorious,
And rules over all.

Have lift up their voice,
Sore troubled that we
In Jesus rejoice;
The floods they are roaring,
But Jesus is here,
While we are adoring
He always is near.
3. When devils engage,
The billows arise,
And horribly rage,
And threaten the skies:
Their fury shall never
Our steadfastness shock,
The weakest believer
Is built on a Rock.
4. God ruleth on high,
Almighty to save,
And still He is nigh,
His presence we have;
The great congregation
His triumph shall sing,
Ascribing salvation
To Jesus, our king.
5. Salvation to God,
Who sits on the throne!
Let all cry aloud,
And honor the Son!
The praises of Jesus
The angels proclaim,
Fall down on their faces,
And worship the Lamb.

And give Him His right,
All glory and power,
All wisdom and might,
All honor and blessing
With angels above,
And thanks never ceasing
And infinite love. Topics: A Spiritual Song; Praise Unto God Used With Tune: HANOVER

secure in the womb,
and speechlessly know
love's safety and room.
Baptizing and blessing
we publish for good
the freeing, caressing
safe keeping of God.
2 In water we wash:
the dirt of each day,
its trouble and rush
are carried away.
In Christ re-created
by love's cleansing art,
self-will and self-hatred
dissolve and depart.
3 In water we dive,
and cannot draw breath,
then surface alive,
rebounding from death.
Our old self goes under,
in Christ dead and drowned.
We rise, washed in wonder,
by love clad and crowned.
4 In water we dwell,
for by its deep flow
through bloodstream and cell,
we live, think, and grow.
Praise God, love outflowing,
whose well of new birth
baptizes our knowing,
and waters the earth. Topics: Baptism; Easter Eve; God's Love to Us; Grace; Renewal; Renewal of Baptismal Vows; Resurrection Scripture: 1 Peter 3:18-22 Used With Tune: PADERBORN
