Hallelujah! raise, oh, raise
Author: Anon. Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 37 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:3 Lyrics: 1 Hallelujah! raise, oh, raise
To our God the song of praise:
All his servants join to sing,
God, our Saviour and our King.
2 Blessed be for evermore
That dread name which we adore;
O'er all nations, God alone,
Higher than the heavens his throne.
3 Yet to view the heavens he bends;
Yea, to earth he condescends;
Passing by the rich and great,
For the low and desolate.
4 He can raise the poor to stand
With the mighty of the land;
Wealth upon the needy shower;
Set the lowliest high in power.
5 He the broken spirit cheers,
Turns to joy the mourner's tears,
Such the wonder of his ways:
Praise his name, forever praise. Topics: Attributes of God Condescension ; Wonders of God's Condescension

Holy Spirit, ever forming

you we praise with endless worship,
for your gifts and fruits unpriced.
3 Holy Spirit, ever working

in a fellowship unending,

How Blest Are They Who Hear God's Word
Author: Oluf H. Smeby; Johan N. Brun Meter: 8.8.7.8.8.7.7 Appears in 12 hymnals Scripture: Isaiah 61:3 Lyrics: 1 How blest are they who hear God's Word,
And keep and heed what they have heard!
They wisdom daily gather;
Their light shines brighter day by day,
And while they tread life's weary way,
They have the oil of gladness
To soothe their pain and sadness.
2 God's Word a treasure is to me,
Thro' sorrow's night my sun shall be,
The shield of faith in battle.
The Father's hand hath written there
My title as His child and heir,
"The kingdom's thine forever."
That promise faileth never.
3 Today I was my Savior's guest;
My soul was here so richly blest,
The Bread of Life receiving.
Oh, may thereby my faith prevail,
So that its fruits shall never fail
Till my account is given
Before the throne in heaven!
Amen. Topics: Adoration Close of Service Used With Tune: MIN SJÄL OG AAND

Thy light has dimmed the dying past.
We bend beneath thy loving will
And seek thy onward, onward path at last.

Speed on the day, redemption’s hour.
Set up thy kingdom; from thy house
Unlock for us, for us the prison tow’r.

Release our anguished, weary souls;
Swing wide, swing wide the gates, and set us free! Topics: Genealogy and Temple Work; Prayer and Supplication Used With Tune: JACOB
