Eternal God, almighty cause
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 156 hymnals Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 Eternal God, almighty cause
Of earth, and seas, and worlds unknown!
All things are subject to thy laws;
All things depend on thee alone.
2 Thy glorious being singly stands,
Of all within itself possesst;
By none control'd in thy commands,
And in thyself completely blest.
3 To thee alone ourselves we owe;
Let heav'n and earth due homage pay:
All other gods we disavow,
Deny their claims, renounce their sway.
4 In thee, O Lord, our hope shall rest,
Fountain of peace and joy and love!
Thy favour only makes us blest;
Without thee all would nothing prove.
5 Worship to thee alone belongs;
Worship to thee alone we give;
Thine be our hearts and thine our songs,
And to thy glory we would live.
6 Spread thy great name through heathen lands;
Their idol-deities dethrone;
Subdue the world to thy commands,
And reign as thou art, God alone.
Eternal God, almighty cause
Great God! thy peerless excellence
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 Great God! thy peerless excellence
Let all created natures own:
Deep on our minds impress the sense
Of glories which are thine alone.
2 Let these our admiration raise,
And fill us with religious awe;
Tine all our hearts and tongues to praise,
And bend us to thy holy law.
3 Pure may we be, averse to sin,
Just, holy, merciful, and true;
And let thine image, form'd within,
Shine out in all we speak and do.
Great God! thy peerless excellence
My soul, before thy Maker bow
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 My soul, before thy Maker bow;
His wondrous works admire,
Till rev'rence and religious awe
Thine inmost thoughts inspire.
2 With humble trust dismiss thy cares,
And on his love depend;
Leave him to manage thine affairs,
To him thyself commend.
3 Let high esteem affection raise;
Devotion warm thy breast;
Let thankful love excite thy praise;
In him alone be blest.
4 To him thy solemn homage pay;
His constant aid implore;
Give thanks for mercies ev'ry day,
And thus prepare for more.
My soul, before thy Maker bow
Eternal and immortal King!
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 69 hymnals Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1 Eternal and immortal King!
Thy peerless splendours none can bear;
But darkness veils seraphic eyes;
When God with all his glory’s there.
2 Yet faith can pierce the awful gloom,
The great Invisible can see:
And with its tremblings mingle joy,
In fix'd regard, great God! to Thee.
3 Then ev'ry tempting form of sin,
Aw'd by thy presence, disappears;
And all the glowing raptur'd soul
The likeness it contemplates, wears.
4 O ever conscious to my heart!
Witness to its supreme desire;
Behold it presses on to thee,
For it hath caught the heav'nly fire.
5 This one petition would it urge:
To bear thee ever in my sight!
In life, in death, in worlds unknown,
My only portion and delight!
Eternal and immortal King!
Thrice happy souls, who, born of heav'n
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 109 hymnals Topics: Duties of Piety Lyrics: 1. Thrice happy souls, who, born from heav’n,
Whilst yet they sojourn here,
Humbly begin their days with God,
And spend them in his fear?
2. So may our eyes with holy zeal,
Prevent the dawning day,
And turn the sacred pages o’er,
And praise thy name and pray..
3. Midst hourly cares my love present
Its incense to thy throne;
And while the world our hands employs,
Our hearts be thine alone!
4. As sanctify'd to noblest ends,
By each refreshment sought;
And by each various providence,
Some wise instruction brought.
5 When to laborious duties call'd
Or by temptations try'd;
We'll seek the shelter of thy wings,
And in thy strength confide.
6 As diff'rent scenes of life arise,
Our grateful hearts would be
With thee amidst the social band,
In solitude with thee.
7 At night we lean our weary heads
On thy paternal breast;
And, safely folded in thine arms,
Resign our pow'rs to rest.
8 In solid pure delights, like these,
Let all my days be past:
Nor shall I then impatient wish,
Nor shall I fear the last.
Thrice happy souls, who, born of heav'n
