Praise to the Holiest in the height

Author: J. H. Newman (1801-1890) Appears in 175 hymnals Topics: The Fall Lyrics: 1 Praise to the Holiest in the height, and in the depth be praise; in all his words most wonderful, most sure in all his ways! 2 O loving wisdom of our God! when all was sin and shame, a second Adam to the fight and to the rescue came. 3 O wisest love! that flesh and blood, which did in Adam fail, should strive afresh against the foe, should strive and should prevail; 4 And that the highest gift of grace should flesh and blood refine: God's presence and his very self, and essence all-divine. 5 O generous love! that he who came as man to smite our foe, the double agony for us as man should undergo: 6 And in the garden secretly, and on the cross on high, should teach his brethren, and inspire to suffer and to die. 7 Praise to the Holiest in the height, and in the depth be praise; in all his words most wonderful, most sure in all his ways!

The Tender Love a Father Has

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: The Fall Lyrics: 1 The tender love a father has for all his children dear-- such love the Lord bestows on those who worship him in fear. 2 The Lord remembers we are dust, and all our frailty knows; our life is like the tender grass, and as the flower it grows. 3 The flower is withered by the wind that smites with blighting breath; so we are quickly swept away before the blast of death. 4 Unchanging is the love of God, from age to age the same, displayed to all who do his will and reverence his name. 5 Those who his gracious covenant keep the Lord will ever bless; their children's children shall rejoice to see his righteousness. Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: TALLIS ORDINAL Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

Help me, O God, and hear my cry

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: The Fall The Human Condition Lyrics: 1 Help me, O God, and hear my cry, extend to me Your saving hand, the waters rise, the floods are high, my feet have found no place to stand: now, lest the depths become my grave, O God of hosts, draw near and save. 2 My secret faults, my sin and shame, lie open, Lord, before Your face, yet in my heart I love Your name and all my hope is in Your grace: Lord, in Your mercy, think on me; speak but the word, and set me free. 3 So shall I praise the God of love, with heaven and earth and sea and sky, who hears us from His throne above and lifts His ransomed people high, to sound His praise in ceaseless song where all who love His name belong.

Vor Sjæl er dertil fødd og baaren

Author: Krist. Richter; Brorson Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: The Fall Lyrics: 1 Vor Sjæl er dertil fødd og baaren, I Gud at vorde skjøn og rig, Just dertil af ham selv udkaaren, At vorde ham, sin Skaber, lig; Hvo kan den Ære noksom prise, Som Gud har villet os bevise! 2 Her var et Adelskab at finde, Som Englens, der Guds Aasyn saa, Ei mindste Lyde var derinde I Sjælens tilstand og Attraa; Her kunde nogen Meen ei være, Thi Gud var Sjælens Lys og Ære. 3 Den drak, af samme Kildes Floder, Hvoraf den selv var kommen frem, Og Visdom var dens Selskabsbroder, Og Pardiset var dens Hjem; Den havde mer end Rigdom fundet, Thi den var ret med Gud forbundet. 4 Hvo kan den Liflighed beskrive, Som Sjælen i sin Gud fornam? O, at den lod sig fra ham rive, Sig til ubørlig Last og Skam, Thi Fienden nu dens Høitidsdage Har vendt til Skjæmsel, Ve og Plage. 5 Nu er den ganske jordisk bleven, Og intet mere ret forstaar, Veed ei, hvorhen den er fordreben, Og vild i denne Verden gaar; Den kan sig ei til Gud opsvinge, Men elsker det, som er saa ringe. 6 O Gud, som har en Frelser givet, At bedre den fortviled' Stand, Væk Sjælen og igjen til Livet, Som du og ingen anden kan, At den igjen kan Visdom finde, Og ikke mere gaa i Blinde! 7 De Sukke, jeg saa dybt maa drage, Ak, lad dem dig til Hjertet gaa! Din søde Kjærlighed at smage Er al den Del, jeg stunder paa; Thi kan jeg elske dig af Hjerte, Da kan mig intet mere smerte. 8 O, store Gud, hvor skal jeg finde Den Lue, Hjertet ønsker sig? O, lad dig, lad dig overvinde, Og drag mig selv igjen til dig! Thi bliver du med mig forbunden, Jeg da min Sjæl igjen har funden.

Indwelling Sin lamented

Author: Dr. Stennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 147 hymnals Topics: The Fall First Line: With tears of anguish I lament Lyrics: 1 With tears of anguish I lament, Here at they feet, my God, My passion, pride, and discontent And vile ingratitude. 2 Sure there was ne'er a heart so base So false as mine has been; So faithless to its promises, So prone to every sin? 3 My reason tells me thy commands Are holy, just, and true; Tells me whate'er my God demands Is his most righteous due. 4 Reason I hear, her counsels weigh, And all her words approve: But still I find it hard t' obey, And harder yet to love. 5 How long, dear Savior, shall I feel Those struggles in my breast? When wilt thou bow my stubborn will, And give my conscience rest? 6 Break, sovereign grace, O break the charm And set the captive free: Reveal, Almighty God, thine arm, And haste to rescue me.

The Stars Declare His Glory

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith Appears in 16 hymnals Topics: The Fall Lyrics: 1 The stars declare his glory; the vault of heaven springs mute witness of the Master's hand in all created things, and through the silences of space their soundless music sings. 2 The dawn returns in splendor, the heavens burn and blaze, the rising sun renews the race that measures all our days, and writes in fire across the skies God's majesty and praise. 3 So shine the Lord's commandments to make the simple wise; more sweet than honey to the taste, more rich than any prize, a law of love within our hearts, a light before our eyes. 4 So order too this life of mine, direct it all my days; the meditations of my heart be innocence and praise, my rock and my redeeming Lord, in all my words and ways. Scripture: Psalm 19 Used With Tune: DEERFIELD
