Sing Praise to the Lord

Amid all his saints his praises prolong. The praise of their Maker his people shall sing, and children of Zion rejoice in their King. 2 With timbrel and harp and joyful acclaim, with dancing and song give praise to his name. For God in his people his pleasure will seek; with robes of salvation adorning the meek. 3 In glory exult, you saints of the Lord. With songs in the night high praises record. Go forth in his service, be strong in his might to conquer all evil and stand for the right. 4 For this is God's word: his saints shall not fail, but over the earth their power shall prevail. All kingdoms and nations shall yield to their sword-- thus God shows his glory; sing praise to the Lord! Scripture: Psalm 149 Used With Tune: HANOVER Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

Eternal Ruler of the Ceaseless Round

Author: John White Chadwick Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Appears in 128 hymnals Topics: Challenge Lyrics: 1 Eternal ruler of the ceaseless round of circling planets singing on their way, guide of the nations from the night profound into the glory of the perfect day: rule in our hearts, that we may live ever new, guided and strengthened and upheld by you. 2 We are your own, the children of your love, as dearly loved as your beloved Son; descend, O Holy Spirit, like a dove, and rule our hearts, that we may be as one: as one with you, to whom we ever tend; as one with Christ, our Saviour and our friend. 3 We would be one in hatred of all wrong, one in our love of all things kind and fair, one with the joy that finds a voice in song one with the grief that trembles into prayer, one in the power that makes your children free to follow truth, and thus in you to be. 4 O clothe us with your heavenly armour, Lord, your trusty shield and sword of love be ours; our inspiration be your constant word; we ask no victories that are not yours: give or withhold, let pain or pleasure fall; to know that we are serving you is all. Used With Tune: SONG 1
