O Happy man, whose soul is fill'd
Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.CXXVIII (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Family Blessings Lyrics: 1 O Happy man, whose soul is fill'd
With zeal and rev'rend awe!
His lips to God their honours yield,
His life adorns the law.
2 A careful providence shall stand,
And ever guard thy head,
Shall on the labours of thy hand
Its kindly blessings shed.
3 Thy wife shall be a fruitful vine;
Thy children round thy board,
Each like a plant of honour shine,
And learn to fear the Lord.
4 The Lord shall thy best hopes fulfil,
For months and years to come;
The Lord who dwells on Zion's hill,
Shall send thee blessings home.
5 This is the man whose happy eyes
Shall see his house increase,
Shall see the sinking church arise,
Then leave the world in peace. Scripture: Psalm 128 Languages: English
O Happy man, whose soul is fill'd
Praise to God, immortal praise
Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #XV (1789) Topics: Creation, Preservation, and temporal Blessings Thanks to God for his bounteous Provision Lyrics: 1 Praise to God, immortal praise,
For the love that crowns our days!
Bounteous Source of ev'ry joy,
Let thy praise our tongues employ;
2 For the blessings of the field;
For the stores the gardens yield;
For the vine's exalted juice;
For the gen'rous olive's use.
3 Flocks, that whiten all the plain;
Yellow sheaves of ripen'd grain;
Clouds, that drop their fatt'ning dews;
Suns, that temp'rate warmth diffuse;
4 All that spring, with bounteous hand,
Scatters o’er the smiling land;
All that lib'ral autumn pours,
From her rich, o'erflowing stores.
5 These to thee, great God, we owe;
Source, whence all our blessings flow:
And for these our souls shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise.

The Saint happy, the Sinner miserable
Praise ye the Lord; 'tis good to raise
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #76 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Blessings of the country; Praise for temporal blessings; Blessings of a nation Lyrics:
Praise ye the Lord; 'tis good to raise
Our hearts and voices in his praise;
His nature and his works invite
To make this duty our delight.
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 Languages: English
Praise ye the Lord; 'tis good to raise
Almighty Father, gracious Lord
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #87 (1828) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Praise for the Blessings of Providence and Grace Lyrics: 1 Almighty Father, gracious Lord,
Kind guardian of my days,
Thy mercies let my heart record
In songs of grateful praise.
2 In life's first dawn, my tender frame
Was thy indulgent care,
Long ere I could pronounce thy name,
Or breathe the infant prayer.
3 Each rolling year new favours brought
From thy exhaustless store;
But, ah! in vain my labouring thought
Would count thy mercies o'er.
4 While sweet reflection, through my days,
Thy bounteous hand would trace,
Still dearer blessings claim thy praise,
The blessings of thy grace.
5 Yes, I adore, thee, gracious Lord!
For favours more divine;
That I have known thy sacred word,
Where all thy glories shine.
6 Lord, when this mortal frame decays,
And every weakness dies,
Complete the wonders of thy grace,
And raise me to the skies. Scripture: Psalm 139
Almighty Father, gracious Lord
Praise ye the Lord: 'Tis good to raise
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P147a (1766) Topics: Blessings of a nation; Blessings of the country; Praise for temporal blessings Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord; 'Tis good to raise
Our Hearts and Voices in his Praise;
His Nature and his Works invite
To make this Duty our delight.
2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem,
And gathers Nations to his Name;
His Mercy melts the stubborn Soul,
And makes the broken Spirit whole.
3 He form'd 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 drown'd.
4 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.
Pause.
5 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.
6 He makes the Grass the Hills adorn;
And cloaths the smiling Fields with Corn;
The Beasts with Food his Hands supply,
And the young Ravens when they cry.
7 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.
8 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 Languages: English
Praise ye the Lord: 'Tis good to raise
