Lying Lips
All ye that love the Lord, rejoice
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 57 hymnals Topics: Vengeance against the enemies of the church Lyrics:
All ye that love the Lord, rejoice,
And let your songs be new;
Amidst the church with cheerful voice
His later wonders show.
The Jews, the people of his grace,
Shall their Redeemer sing;
And Gentile nations join the praise,
While Zion owns her King.
The Lord takes pleasure in the just,
Whom sinners treat with scorn;
The meek that lie despised in dust
Salvation shall adorn.
Saints should be joyful in their King,
E'en on a dying bed;
And like the souls in glory sing;
For God shall raise the dead.
Then his high praise shall fill their tongues
Their hands shall wield the sword;
And vengeance shall attend their songs,
The vengeance of the Lord.
When Christ the judgment-seat ascends,
And bids the world appear,
Thrones are prepared for all his friends
Who humbly loved him here.
Then shall they rule with iron rod
Nations that dared rebel;
And join the sentence of their God
On tyrants doomed to hell.
The royal sinners bound in chains
New triumphs shall afford:
Such honor for the saints remains;
Praise ye, and love the Lord!
Scripture: Psalm 149
All ye that love the Lord, rejoice
Psalm 97 Part 3
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 83 hymnals Topics: God his vengeance and compassion First Line: Th' Almighty reigns exalted high Lyrics:
Th' Almighty reigns exalted high
O'er all the earth, o'er all the sky;
Though clouds and darkness veil his feet,
His dwelling is the mercy-seat.
O ye that love his holy name,
Hate every work of sin and shame;
He guards the souls of all his friends,
And from the snares of hell defends.
Immortal light and joys unknown
Are for the saints in darkness sown
Those glorious seeds shall spring and rise,
And the bright harvest bless our eyes.
Rejoice, ye righteous, and record
The sacred honors of the Lord:
None but the soul that feels his grace
Can triumph in his holiness.
Scripture: Psalm 97

His birth; the nations learn his name;
An unknown star directs the road
Of eastern sages to their God.
2 All ye bright armies of the skies,
Go, worship where the Saviour lies;
Angels and kings before him bow,
Those gods on high, and gods below.
3 Let idols totter to the ground,
And their own worshippers confound:
But Zion shall his glories sing,
And earth confess her sovereign King. Scripture: Psalm 97:6-9

Praise him in evangelic strains:
Let the whole earth in songs rejoice,
And distant islands join their voice.
2 Deep are his counsels and unknown;
But grace and truth support his throne;
Though gloomy clouds his way surround:
Justice is their eternal ground.
3 In robes of judgement, lo, he comes,
Shakes the wide earth and cleaves the tombs,
Before him burns devouring fire,
The mountains melt, the seas retire.
4 His enemies with sore dismay,
Fly from the sight, and shun the day;
Then lift your heads, ye saints, on high,
And sing, for your redemption's nigh. Scripture: Psalm 97:1-5

Appears in 43 hymnals Topics: God his vengeance and compassion; God his vengeance and compassion First Line: Let earth, with every isle and sea Lyrics: 1 Let earth, with every isle and sea
Rejoice, the Saviour reigns:
His word like fire prepares his way,
And mountains melt to plains.
2 His presence sinks the proudest hills,
And makes the vallies rise;
The humble soul enjoys his smiles,
The haughty sinner dies.
3 The heavens his rightful power proclaim;
The idol gods around
Fill their own worshippers with shame,
And totter to the ground.
4 Adoring angels at his birth
Make the Redeemer known;
Thus shall he come to judge the earth,
And angels guard his throne.
5 His foes shall tremble at his sight,
And hills and seas retire:
His children take their unknown flight,
And leave the world in fire.
6 The seeds of joy and glory sown
For saints in darkness here,
Shall rise and spring in worlds unknown,
And a rich harvest bear. Scripture: Psalm 97:3

Ten thousand angels fill'd the sky;
Those heavenly guards around thee wait,
Like chariots that attend thy state.
2 Not Sinai's mountain could appear
More glorious when the Lord was there;
While he pronounc'd his dreadful law,
And struck the chosen tribes with awe.
3 How bright the triumph none can tell,
When the rebellious powers of hell,
That thousand souls had captive made,
Were all in chains like captives led.
4 Rais'd by his father to the throne,
He sent the promis'd spirit down,
With gifts and grace for rebel-men,
That God might dwell on earth again. Scripture: Psalm 68:17-18
Christ's Ascension, and the Gift of the Spirit
The Sufferings and Death of Christ
Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Vengeance and compassion; Vengeance and compassion First Line: Why has my God my soul forsook Lyrics: 1 Why has my God my soul forsook,
Nor will a smile afford?
(Thus David once in anguish spoke,
And thus our dying Lord.)
2 Though ’tis thy chief delight to dwell
Among thy praising saints,
Yet thou canst hear a groan as well,
And pity our complaints.
3 Our fathers trusted in thy name,
And great deliverance found;
But I’m a worm, despis'd of men,
And trodden to the ground.
4 With shaking head they pass me by,
And laugh my soul to scorn;
In vain he trusts in God, they cry,
Neglected and forlorn.
5 But thou art he, who form'd my flesh,
By thine almighty word;
And since I hung upon the breast
My hope is in the Lord.
6 Why will my father hide his face
When foes stand threatening round
In the dark hour of deep distress,
And not an helper found?
Pause.
7 Behold thy darling left among
The cruel and the proud,
By foes encompass'd fierce and strong,
As lions roaring loud.
8 From earth and hell my sorrows meet,
To multiply the smart;
They nail my hands, they pierce my feet,
And try to vex my heart.
9 Yet if thy sovereign hand let loose
The rage of earth and hell,
Why will my heavenly Father bruise
The son he loves so well?
10 My God, if possible it be,
With-hold this bitter cup;
But I resign my will to thee,
And drink the sorrows up.
11 My heart dissolves with pangs unknown,
In groans I waste my breath;
Thy heavy hand has brought me down,
Low as the dust of death.
12 Father, I give my spirit up,
And trust it in thy hand;
My dying flesh shall rest in hope,
And rise at thy command. Scripture: Psalm 22:1-16
