Schmidt, born 1857 Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #329 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: The Church on Earth Lyrics: 1 We praise Thee, O God, our Lord and our King; Accept Thou the praise we gratefully bring; Thanksgiving and worship we offer to Thee, Thou Ruler of nations, in whom we are free. 2 We praise Thee, O God, for Thy guiding hand, In leading Thy Church to freedom's fair land; Through sore persecution our fathers here came, Where free and unfettered they worshiped Thy Name. 3 We praise Thee, O God, for years of increase, For faith unassailed, prosperity, peace; United we offer our anthem of praise To Thee, our Supporter, our Ancient of Days. 4 We pray Thee, O Christ, our Savior and Friend, From error and strife Thy Zion defend; Breathe on us, we pray Thee, O Spirit of Love, And fit us for union with Thy Church above.

Triumphantly ride forth For meekness, truth, and right; Thy arm shall gain the victory In wondrous deeds of might. 3 Thy strength shall overcome All those that hate the King, And under Thy dominion strong The nations Thou shalt bring. Thy royal throne, O God, Forevermore shall stand; Eternal truth and justice wield The sceptre in Thy hand. 4 Since Thou art sinless found, The Lord, Thy God confessed, Anointeth Thee with perfect joy, Thou art supremely blest. Thy garments breathe of myrrh And spices sweet and rare; Glad strains of heavenly music ring Throughout Thy palace fair. 5 Amid Thy glorious train Kings' daughters waiting stand, And fairest gems bedeck Thy bride, The queen at Thy right hand. O royal bride, give heed, And to my words attend; For Christ, the King, forsake the world And every former friend. Scripture: Psalm 45 Languages: English Tune Title: LEOMINSTER

God Saved His People from Distress

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #130 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: The Church on Earth Lyrics: 1 God saved His people from distress And led them through the wilderness; Then mountains trembled in their place, The heavens were bowed before His face. With copious showers Thou didst assuage The thirsting of Thy heritage; Thy congregation dwelt secure; Thou, God, art gracious to the poor. 2 The Lord sent forth His mighty word, And shouts of victory were heard; The women came, a mighty throng, To join the glad triumphant song. When God His chosen people led, The kings and armies turned and fled; The hosts of God victorious fought, And home their spoils and trophies brought. 3 God's people rested, free from care, In glorious peace and beauty fair; Their mighty King did overthrow The hostile kings like driven snow. All mountains unto God belong, But Zion's holy mountains strong Above them all the Lord loves well, And there He will forever dwell. 4 Great hosts to holy wars have trod, The armies of the living God; Among them He reveals His face, The God of justice and of grace. Thou hast ascended up on high And captive led captivity; They come with gifts who did rebel, That with them God the Lord might dwell. 5 Blest be the Lord! for us He cares And daily all our burden bears; Our God is mighty, strong to save; Jehovah frees us from the grave. God's unrelenting enemies No peace shall find in earth or seas; His people shall triumphant go, Victorious over every foe. 6 With glorious pomp our King and God Has entered into His abode With sacred minstrelsy and song, While maidens with their timbrels throng. Assemble ye before His face, All ye that spring from Israel’s race; Ye chosen tribes, with one accord Come ye, and bless your God, the Lord.

Gracious Lord, Remember David

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #291 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: The Church on Earth Lyrics: 1 Gracious Lord, remember David, How he made Thy house his care, How he vowed to seek no pleasure Till Thy house he should prepare. Lord, remember his devotion; Restless in his courts he trod Till he found a habitation Fit for Israel's mighty God, Till he found a habitation Fit for Israel's mighty God. 2 Far away God's ark was resting; It is with His people now; We will go into His temple, At His footstool we will bow. With the ark, Thy might revealing, Enter, Lord, into Thy rest; Let Thy priests be clothed with justice, Let Thy joyful saints be blest, Let Thy priests be clothed with justice, Let Thy joyful saints be blest. 3 Let the king behold Thy favor For Thy servant David's sake, Unto whom a sacred promise, Sure and faithful, Thou didst make. If his children keep Thy covenant And Thy testimony own, Then, as Thou, O Lord, hast promised, They shall sit upon his throne, Then, as Thou, O Lord, hast promised, They shall sit upon his throne. 4 Thou, the Lord, hast chosen Zion, Thou hast ever loved her well; This My resting-place forever, Here, Thou sayst, I choose to dwell. Surely I will bless and help her, Feed her poor, her saints make glad, And her priest shall stand before Me In salvation's garments clad, And her priests shall stand before Me In salvation's garments clad. 5 I will cause the might of David Ever more and more to grow; On the path of My Anointed I will make a lamp to glow. All His enemies shall perish, I will cover them with shame; But His crown shall ever flourish; Blessed be His holy Name, But His crown shall ever flourish; Blessed be His holy Name.
