God Holy and Just

Hymnal: CHAP1845 #11 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Holy and rev'rend is the name Lyrics: 1 Holy and rev'rend is the name Of our eternal King. Thrice holy, Lord! the angels cry: Thrice holy, let us sing. 2 Holy is he in all his works, And saints are His delight; But sinners and their wicked ways Are hateful in his sight. 3 The deepest rev'rence, homage, love, Pay, O my soul, to God; Lift with thy hands a holy heart To his sublime abode. 4 Thou, righteous God! preserve my mind From all pollution free: Thine image form within my breast, That I thy face may see.

God is a Spirit, just and wise

Hymnal: CHAP1845 #12 (1845) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 God is a Spirit, just and wise; He sees our inmost mind. In vain to heav'n we raise our cries, And leave our souls behind. 2 Nothing but truth before his throne With honor can appear. The painted hypocrites are known Through the disguise they wear. 3 Their lifted eyes salute the skies, Their bending knees the ground; But God abhors the sacrifice, Where not the heart is found. 4 Lord! search my thoughts, and try my ways, And make my soul sincere; Then shall I stand before thy face, And find acceptance there.

Hymnal: CHAP1845 #16 (1845) Meter: 6.6.8.6 First Line: My soul, repeat his praise Lyrics: 1 My soul, repeat his praise, Whose mercies are so great; Whose anger is so slow to rise, So ready to abate. 2 God will not always chide; And, when his wrath is felt, His strokes are fewer than our crimes, And lighter than our guilt. 3 High as the heav’ns are raised Above the ground we tread, So far the riches of His grace Our highest thoughts exceed. 4 His grace subdues our sins; And his forgiving love, Far as the east is from the west, Doth all our guilt remove. 5 The pity of the Lord To those that fear his name, Is such as tender parents feel; He knows our feeble frame. 6 Our days as are the grass, Or like the morning flower! If one sharp blast sweep o’er the field, It withers in an hour. 7 But Thy compassions, Lord, To endless years endure; And children’s children ever find Thy words of promise sure.

His works, through all this wondrous frame, Bear the great impress of his name. 6 Rais'd on devotion's lofty wing, Let us his high perfections sing: O let his praise employ our tongue, Whilst list'ning worlds applaud the song!
