Here young and old, here great and small

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #108 (1854) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Waiting upon God Lyrics: Here young and old, here great and small, Here rich and poor together meet: 111 The Lord, the Maker of them all, Gives audience from the Mercy-seat. While faith may see Him eye to eye, And guilt in vain would shun the light, The hidden things of darkness lie Naked and open to His sight. Not as to others we may seem, Who look but on the outward guise; Or of ourselves we fondly dream, A foolish people and unwise:-- But what we are in heart and soul, His sin-abhorring eyes discern; On Him we wait, the true, the whole Sad secret of ourselves to learn. Taught by His Son, may we believe In Him our Father reconciled; Led by His Spirit, each receive His kingdom as a little child. With reverence, then, and godly fear, While prayer and praise our tongues employ, O that we all may now draw near To God, as our exceeding joy! Languages: English

Joyful in Thy House of Prayer

Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #116 (1854) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Waiting upon God Lyrics: Joyful in Thy House of Prayer, Shall Thy chosen people be; God of mercy, meet me there, While my spirit waits on Thee. There, with strength renew'd, the saint As on eagle wings shall fly, Walk and run, and never faint, Fight and conquer,--so would I. There, with faces Zion-ward, When transgressors ask the way To the city of the Lord, Each shall hear the watchman say:-- 118 To the Cross direct thine eyes, Thither from destruction flee, For the gates of paradise Open stand on Calvary. "He who bore a sinner thence, As a trophy of his death, There will pardon thine offence, There receive thy latest breath." There, where my Redeemer died, Humbly in the dust I fall; Jesus, and Him crucified, Now shall be mine all in all. Languages: English

Our souls shall magnify the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #218 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Waiting for pardon and direction Lyrics: Our souls shall magnify the Lord, In God the Savior we rejoice: While we repeat the Virgin's song, May the same Spirit tune our voice! [The Highest saw her low estate, And mighty things his hand hath done: His overshadowing power and grace Makes her the mother of his Son. Let ev'ry nation call her blest, And endless years prolong her fame; But God alone must be ador'd: Holy and reverend is his name.] To those that fear and trust the Lord, His mercy stands for ever sure: From age to age his promise lives, And the performance is secure. He spake to Abram and his seed, In thee shall all the earth be blessed;" The memory of that ancient word Lay long in his eternal breast. But now no more shall Isr'el wait, No more the Gentiles lie forlorn: Lo, the desire of nations comes; Behold, the promised seed is born! Scripture: Luke 1:46 Languages: English

Hast Thou Not Known, Hast Thou Not Heard

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #228 (2018) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Waiting upon God Lyrics: 1 Hast thou not known, hast thou not heard that firm remains on high the everlasting throne of him who formed the earth and sky? 2 Art thou afraid his pow'r shall fail when comes thine evil day? And can an all creating arm grow weary or decay? 3 Supreme in wisdom as in pow'r the Rock of Ages stands, though him you cannot see, nor trace the working of his hands. 4 He gives the conquest to the weak, supports the fainting heart; and courage in the evil hour his heav'nly aids impart. 5 Mere human pow'r shall fast decay, and youthful vigor cease; but they who wait upon the Lord in strength shall still increase. 6 They with unwearied feet shall tread the path of life divine, with growing ardor onward move, with growing brightness shine. 7 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar-- their wings are faith and love-- till, past the cloudy regions here, they rise to heav'n above.
