Psalm 75

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.162 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Government from God First Line: To thee, most Holy and most High Lyrics: To thee, most Holy and most High, To thee we bring our thankful praise; Thy works declare thy name is nigh, Thy works of wonder and of grace. Britain was doomed to be a slave, Her frame dissolved, her fears were great; When God a new supporter gave, To bear the pillars of the state. He from thy hand received his crown, And sware to rule by wholesome laws; His foot shall tread th' oppressor down, His arm defend the righteous cause. Let haughty sinners sink their pride, Nor lift so high their scornful head; But lay their foolish thoughts aside, And own the king that God hath made. Such honors never come by chance, Nor do the winds promotion blow; 'Tis God the Judge doth one advance, 'Tis God that lays another low. No vain pretence to royal birth Shall fix a tyrant on the throne: God, the great Sovereign of the earth, Will rise and make his justice known. [His hand holds out the dreadful cup Of vengeance mixed with various plagues, To make the wicked drink them up, Wring out and taste the bitter dregs. Now shall the Lord exalt the just; And while he tramples on the proud, And lays their glory in the dust, My lips shall sing his praise aloud.] Scripture: Psalm 75 Languages: English

Psalm 101

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.219 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Family government First Line: Mercy and judgment are my song Lyrics: Mercy and judgment are my song; And since they both to thee belong, My gracious God, my righteous King, To thee my songs and vows I bring. If I am raised to bear the sword, I'll take my counsels from thy word; Thy justice and thy heav'nly grace Shall be the pattern of my ways. Let wisdom all my actions guide, And let my God with me reside; No wicked thing shall dwell with me Which may provoke thy jealousy. No sons of slander, rage, and strife Shall be companions of my life; The haughty look, the heart of pride, Within my doors shall ne'er abide. [I'll search the land, and raise the just To posts of honor, wealth, and trust; The men that work thy holy will Shall be my friends and fav'rites still.] In vain shall sinners hope to rise By flatt'ring or malicious lies; And while the innocent I guard, The bold offender sha'n't be spared. The impious crew, that factious band, Shall hide their heads or quit the land; And all that break the public rest, Where I have power, shall be suppressed. Scripture: Psalm 101 Languages: English

Psalm 101

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.220 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Family government First Line: Of justice and of grace I sing Lyrics: Of justice and of grace I sing, And pay my God my vows; Thy grace and justice, heav'nly King, Teach me to rule my house. Now to my tent, O God, repair, And make thy servant wise; I'll suffer nothing near me there That shall offend thine eyes. The man that doth his neighbor wrong By falsehood or by force, The scornful eye, the sland'rous tongue I'll thrust them from my doors. I'll seek the faithful and the just, And will their help enjoy; These are the friends that I shall trust, The servants I'll employ. The wretch that deals in sly deceit I'll not endure a night: The liar's tongue I ever hate, And banish from my sight. I'll purge my family around, And make the wicked flee; So shall my house be ever found A dwelling fit for thee. Scripture: Psalm 101 Languages: English

Hos sin Fader idet höga För de sina beder han, Och för Faderns helga öga Står han som vår löftesman. 4 Upp, min själ, att eftertrakta Endast det i himlen är, Jordens lust för intet akta: Ej din ro du finner här! Din um g¨ngelse skall vara, Där din Gud, din konung bor, Tills han med sinhelgenskara Kommer åter som han for! Languages: Swedish Tune Title: HARWELL

I helgon, sjungen där Och här hans pris! Languages: Swedish Tune Title: AMERICA

The Lord himself is King

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XCVII (1767) Topics: Prophecies Of Jesus Christ, concerning his Coming and Government Lyrics: 1 The LORD himself is King, O let the Earth rejoice; Yea, let the Isles be glad And shout with chearful Voice: Darkness and awful Clouds, His Glory shroud in State; Judgment and Righteousness, As close Attendants wait, At his Pavillion Gate. 2 Before him raging Flames, His Foes with Vengeance struck, His Lightnings shone Abroad, And Earth with Terror shook: The Hills with one Accord, Like Wax before him melt; Their Heights no Help afford, In Presence of the LORD. 3 The Heav'ns, his Truth to show, With Fire his Foes pursu'd: The trembling World below, His awful Glory view'd. Confounded be their Host, Who worship Day be Day Carv'd Idols, made with Hands; Ye Gods to whom they pray, To him your Homage pay. 4 Sion thy Triumph heard, And Judah was o'erjoy'd; Because thy Judgments, LORD, Have Pagan Pride destroy'd: For thou art seated high, On thy exalted Throne, Unrival'd in the Sky, Both Earth and Heaav'n shall own, That thou art GOD alone. 5 All ye who love the LORD, Hate Sin, and Truth esteem; He will from wicked Men, His Servant's Soul redeem: A glorious Light springs up, And Joy the Just shall bless; Ye Righteous praise the LORD, With thankful tongues confess, His Truth and Holiness.
