Let Pharisees of high esteem
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 68 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 63:6-10 Lyrics:
Let Pharisees of high esteem
Their faith and zeal declare,
All their religion is a dream,
If love be wanting there.
Love suffers long with patient eye,
Nor is provoked in haste;
She lets the present injury die,
And long forgets the past.
[Malice and rage, those fires of hell,
She quenches with her tongue;
Hopes and believes, and thinks no ill,
Though she endure the wrong.]
[She nor desires nor seeks to know
The scandals of the time;
Nor looks with pride on those below,
Nor envies those that climb.]
She lays her own advantage by
To seek her neighbor's good;
So God's own Son came down to die,
And bought our lives with blood.
Love is the grace that keeps her power
In all the realms above;
There faith and hope are known no more,
But saints for ever love.
Topics: Meditation; Lord's Day Morning; Morning of a sabbath; Delight in God; Seeking God; Longing after God; Worship absence from it; Converse with God; Love of God better than life; Midnight thoughts; Worship public

Let God arise in all his might
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 47 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 63:1-8 Lyrics: 1 Let God arise in all his might,
And put the troops of hell to flight;
As smoke that sought to cloud the skies
Before the rising tempest flies.
2 [He comes array'd in burning flames;
Justice and vengeance are his names;
Behold his fainting foes expire,
Like melting wax before the fire.]
3 He rides and thunders thro' the sky;
His name Jehovah sounds on high;
Sing to his name, ye sons of grace;
Ye saints rejoice before his face.
4 The widow and the fatherless
Fly to his aid in sharp distress;
In him the poor and helpless find
A Judge that’s just, a Father kind.
5 He breaks the captive’s heavy chain,
And pris'ners see the light again;
But rebels that dispute his will,
Shall dwell in chains and darkness still.
6 Kingdoms and thrones to God belong;
Crown him, ye nations, in your song:
His wond'rous names and pow'rs rehearse;
His honours shall enrich your verse.
7 He shakes the heav’ns with loud alarms;
How terrible is God in arms!
In Isr'el are his mercies known,
Isr'el is his peculiar throne.
8 Proclaim him king, pronounce him blest;
He’s your defence, your joy, your rest:
When terrors rise, and nations faint,
God is the strength of ev'ry saint. Topics: The Vengeance and Compassion of God
Let God arise in all his might
