O God, Be Thy Anointed Son

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #142 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Kingdom of Christ Lyrics: 1 O God, be Thy Anointed Son With truth and righteousness endowed, That justice may on earth be done, The meek protected from the proud. 2 Then over mountain side and plain Shall peace spring forth from righteousness; The poor man's cause will He maintain, And save the weak, that none oppress. 3 Then shall Thy fear on earth be known Long as the sun and moon shall shine; While endless generations run, Kingdom and glory shall be Thine. 4 Like copious rain in time of dearth, So shall His gracious coming be; As gentle showers that cheer the earth, So He shall bring prosperity. 5 The just shall flourish in His day, And evermore shall peace extend; From sea to sea shall be His sway, And to the earth's remotest end. 6 The desert lands to Him shall bow, And all the islands of the sea, And kings with gifts shall pay their vow, His enemies shall bend the knee. 7 In great compassion for the weak He ever will maintain their right, Will help the poor and save the meek; Their lives are precious in His sight.

For ever be Thy name adored; I blush in all things to abound; The servant is above his Lord. 2 Inured to poverty and pain, A suffering life my Master led; The Son of God, the Son of Man, He had not where to lay His head. 3 But lo! a place He hath prepared For me, whom watchful angels keep Yea, He Himself becomes my guard; He smooths my bed, and gives me sleep. 4 Jesus protects; my fears, be gone; What can the Rock of ages move? Safe in Thine arms I lay me down, Thine everlasting arms of love. 5 While Thou art intimately nigh, Who, who shall violate my rest? Sin, earth, and hell I now defy; I lean upon my Saviour's breast. 6 I rest beneath the Almighty's shade; My griefs expire, my troubles cease; Thou, Lord, on whom my soul is stayed, Wilt keep me still in perfect peace.

Jesus' love the nations fires, Sets the kingdoms on a blaze; To bring fire on earth He came, Kindled in some hearts it is; O that all might catch the flame, All partake the glorious bliss! 2 When He first the work begun, Small and feeble was His day; Now the word doth swiftly run, Now it wins its widening way; More and more it spreads and grows, Ever mighty to prevail, Sin's strongholds it now o'erthrows, Shakes the trembling gates of hell. 3 Sons of God, your Saviour praise! He the door hath opened wide; He hath given the word of grace, Jesus' word is glorified; Jesus, mighty to redeem, He alone the work hath wrought; Worthy is the work of Him, Him who spake a world from nought. 4 Saw ye not the cloud arise, Little as a human hand Now it spreads along the skies, Hangs o'er all the thirsty land; Lo! the promise of a shower Drops already from above; But the Lord will shortly pour All the Spirit of His love!
