How good and pleasant must it be
Appears in 17 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 92 Lyrics: 1 How good and pleasant must it be
to thank the Lord most high;
And with repeated Hymns of Praise,
his Name to magnify.
2 With ev'ry Morning's early Dawn,
his Goodness to relate;
And of his constant Truth, each Night
the glad Effects repeat.
3 To ten-string'd Instruments we'll sing,
with tuneful Psalt'ries join'd,
And to the Harp, with solemn Sounds,
for sacred Use design'd
4 For thro' thy wondrous Works, O Lord,
Thou mak'st my Heart rejoice;
The Thoughts of them shall make me glad,
and shout with chearful Voice.
5,6 How wond'rous are thy Works, O Lord!
how deep are thy Decrees!
Whose winding Tracks, in secret laid,
no stupid Sinner sees.
7 He little thinks, when wicked Men,
like Grass, look fresh and gay;
How soon their short-liv'd Splendor must
for ever pass away.
8,9 But Thou, my God, art still most High;
and all thy lofty Foes,
Who thought they might securely sin,
shall be o'erwhelm'd with Woes.
10 Whilst Thou exalt'st my sov'reign Pow'r,
and mak'st it largely spread;
And with refreshing Oil anoint'st
my consecrated Head.
11 I soon shall see my stubborn Foes
to utter Ruin brought;
And hear the dismal End of those,
who have against me fought.
12 But righteous Men, like fruitful Palms,
shall make a glorious Show;
As Cedars that on Lebanon
in stately Order grow.
13,14 These, planted in the House of God,
within his Courts shall thrive;
Their Vigour and their Lustre both
shall in old Age revive.
15 Thus will the Lord his Justice shew;
and God, my strong Defence,
Shall due Rewards to all the World
impartially dispense.

Guard my first springs of thought and will,
And with thyself my spirit fill.

New Every Morning Is the Love
Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 362 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 92 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love
our wakening and uprising prove;
through sleep and darkness safely brought,
restored to life and power and thought.
2 New mercies, each returning day,
hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven.
3 If on our daily course our mind
be set to hallow all we find,
new treasures still of countless price,
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be,
as more of heaven in each we see;
some softening gleam of love and prayer
shall dawn on every cross and care.
5 The trivial round, the common task,
will furnish all we ought to ask;
room to deny ourselves, a road
to bring us daily nearer God.
6 Only, O Lord, in thy dear love,
fit us for perfect rest above;
and help us, this and every day,
to live more nearly as we pray. Topics: Morning; Love Used With Tune: MELCOMBE

The Day Thou Gavest, Lord, Is Ended
Author: John Ellerton Meter: 9.8.9.8 Appears in 289 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 92:2 First Line: The day thou gavest, Lord is ended Lyrics: 1 The day thou gavest, Lord, is ended;
the darkness falls at thy behest.
To thee our morning hymns ascended;
thy praise shall hallow now our rest.
2 We thank thee that thy church unsleeping,
while earth rolls onward into light,
through all the world a watch is keeping
and rests not now by day or night.
3 As o’er each continent and island
the dawn leads on another day,
the voice of prayer is never silent,
nor dies the song of praise away.
4 The sun that bids us rest is waking
thy children ‘neath the western sky,
and hour by hour fresh lips are making
thy wondrous doings heard on high.
5 So be it, Lord; thy throne shall never,
like earth's proud empires, pass away;
thy kingdom stands, and grows forever
until there dawns thy glorious day.

When in Our Music God Is Glorified
Author: Fred Pratt Green Meter: 10.10.10.4 Appears in 84 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 92:1-4 Lyrics: 1 When in our music God is glorified,
And adoration leaves no room for pride,
It is as though the whole creation cried:
Alleluia!
2 How often, making music, we have found
A new dimension in the world of sound,
As worship moved us to a more profound
Alleluia!
3 So has the church, in liturgy and song,
In faith and love, through centuries of wrong,
Borne witness to the truth in every tongue:
Alleluia!
4 Let every instrument be tuned for praise!
Let all rejoice who have a voice to raise!
And may God give us faith to sing always:
Alleluia! Amen.
