By earth and heav'n confessed; I bow and bless the sacred Name, For ever blest. 2 The God of Abraham praise, At whose supreme command From earth I rise, and seek the joys At his right hand: I all on earth forsake, Its wisdom, fame, and pow'r; And him my only portion make, My Shield and Tower. 3 He by himself hath sworn, I on his oath depend; I shall, on eagle's wings upborne, To heav'n ascend: I shall behold his face, I shall his pow'r adore, And sing the wonders of his grace For evermore. 4 The goodly land I see, With peace and plenty blest, A land of sacred liberty And endless rest; There milk and honey flow, And oil and wine abound, And trees of life for ever grow, With mercy crowned. 5 There dwells the Lord our King, The Lord our Righteousness; Triumphant over the world and sin, The Prince of Peace On Zion's sacred height His kingdom still maintains, And glorious with his saints in light For ever reigns. 6 The whole triumphant host Give thanks to God on high; "Hail Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!" They ever cry: Hail, Abraham's God and mine! I join the heavenly lays; All might and majesty are thine, And endless praise. Amen. Scripture: Jeremiah 33:16 Used With Tune: LEONI

Thy children are secure and blest; Thy shores have peace, thy cities rest; He feeds thy sons with finest wheat, And adds his blessing to their meat. Thy changing seasons he ordains, Thine early and thy latter rains; His flakes of snow like wool he sends, And thus the springing corn defends. With hoary frost he strews the ground; His hail descends with clatt'ring sound: Where is the man so vainly bold That dares defy his dreadful cold? He bids the southern breezes blow; The ice dissolves, the waters flow: But he hath nobler works and ways To call the Britons to his praise. To all the isle his laws are shown, His gospel through the nation known; He hath not thus revealed his word To every land: praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 147

The Lord builds up Jerusalem, And gathers nations to his name; His mercy melts the stubborn soul, And makes the broken spirit whole. He formed the stars, those heav'nly flames; He counts their numbers, calls their names; His wisdom's vast, and knows no bound, A deep where all our thoughts are drowned. Great is our Lord, and great his might; And all his glories infinite: He crowns the meek, rewards the just, And treads the wicked to the dust. Sing to the Lord, exalt him high, Who spreads his clouds all round the sky; There he prepares the fruitful rain, Nor lets the drops descend in vain. He makes the grass the hills adorn, And clothes the smiling fields with corn; The beasts with food his hands supply, And the young ravens when they cry. What is the creature's skill or force, The sprightly man, the warlike horse, The nimble wit, the active limb? All are too mean delights for him. But saints are lovely in his sight, He views his children with delight; He sees their hope, he knows their fear, And looks, and loves his image there. Scripture: Psalm 147

Scripture: Psalm 147:13-18
