Praise due to God, not to Idols
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #255 (1787) Topics: Israel saved from Egypt and brought to Canaan; Israel saved from Egypt and brought to Canaan First Line: Awake, ye saints: To praise your King Lyrics: 1 Awake, ye saints: To praise your King
Your sweetest passions raise,
Your pious pleasure, while you sing,
Increasing with the praise.
2 Great is the Lord; and works unknown
Are his divine employ:
But still his saints are near his throne,
His treasure and his joy.
3 Heaven, earth, and sea confess his hand;
He bids the vapours rise;
Lightning and storm at his command
Sweep through the sounding skies.
4 All power that gods or kings have claim'd
Is found with him alone;
But heathen gods should ne'er be nam'd
Where our Jehovah's known.
5 Which of the stocks or stones they trust
Can give them showers of rain?
In vain they worship glittering dust,
And pray to gold in vain.
6 [Their gods have tongues that speechless prove,
Such as their makers gave;
Their feet were never form'd to move,
Nor hands have power to save.
7 Blind are their eyes, their ears are deaf,
Nor hear when mortals pray;
Mortals that wait for their relief,
Are blind and deaf as they.]
8 Ye nations, know the living God,
Serve him with faith and fear;
He makes the churches his abode,
And claims your honours there. Scripture: Psalm 135 Languages: English

Praise Jehovah for His Love
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #299 (1934) Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Topics: Israel in Canaan Lyrics: 1 Praise Jehovah for His love,
God of gods, enthroned above;
Praise the mighty King of kings,
Who alone doth wondrous things;
For His mercy will endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
2 God by wisdom framed the skies,
Made the earth from ocean rise,
Gave the sun by day for light,
Moon and stars to rule the night;
For His mercy will endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
3 He made Egypt's greatness vain,
Caused their first-born to be slain,
Brought forth Israel from their land,
Stretching out His mighty hand;
For His mercy will endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
4 God the sea asunder clave,
Brought His people through the wave,
Drowned their foes beneath the deep,
Through the desert lead His sheep;
For His mercy will endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
5 Mighty kings of mighty name
He destroyed and put to shame,
Made their land a heritage
For His saints from age to age;
For His mercy will endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.
6 God remembered all our woe,
Rescued us from every foe,
Food to all doth He supply,
Praise the Lord enthroned on high;
For His mercy will endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure. Scripture: Psalm 136 Languages: English Tune Title: BETTER LAND
Praise Jehovah for His Love
My people, give ear, attend to my word
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #301 (1961) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: Israel In Canaan; Israel In the Desert Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word,
In parables new deep truths shall be heard;
The wonderful story our fathers made known
To children succeeding by us must be shown.
2 Instructing our sons we gladly record
The praises, the works, the might of the Lord,
For he has commanded that what he has done
Be passed in tradition from father to son.
3 Let children thus learn from history's light
To hope in our God and walk in his sight,
The God of their fathers to fear and obey,
And ne'er like their fathers to turn from his way.
4 The story be told, to warn and restrain,
Of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain,
Of soldiers who faltered when battle was near,
Who kept not God's cov'nant nor walked in his fear.
5 God's wonderful works to them he had shown,
His marvelous deeds their fathers had known;
He made for their pathway the waters divide,
His glorious pillar of cloud was their guide.
6 Unharmed through the sea, where perished their foe,
He caused them with ease and safety to go;
His holy land gaining, in peace they were brought
To dwell in the mountain the Lord's hand had bought.
7 He gave them the land, a heritage fair;
The nations that dwelt in wickedness there
He drove out before them with great overthrow,
And gave to his people the tents of the foe.
8 His servant he called, a shepherd of sheep,
From tending his flock, the people to keep;
So David, their shepherd, with wisdom and might
Protected and fed them and led them aright.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 78 Languages: English Tune Title: HANOVER (CROFT)
My people, give ear, attend to my word

To gather scattered Israel in
And bring them back to Zion to praise the Lamb.

While you the blessings reap which long have been predicted.

He’ll gather you into his fold
And bring you home to Zion to praise the Lamb.
3. Repent and be baptized, and have your sins remitted,
And get the Spirit’s zeal; oh, then you’ll be united.
Go cast upon him all your care;
He will regard your humble prayer
And bring you home to Zion to praise the Lamb.
4. And when your grief is o’er and ended your affliction,
Your spirits then will soar to await the Resurrection;
And then his presence you’ll enjoy,
In heav’nly bliss your time employ,
A thousand years in Zion to praise the Lamb. Languages: English Tune Title: [Come, all ye sons of God]

Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain
Author: John of Damascus, 8th cent.; John Mason Neale Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #356 (2018) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Israel Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the strain
of triumphant gladness;
God hath brought his Israel
into joy from sadness;
loosed from Pharaoh's bitter yoke
Jacob's sons and daughters;
led them with unmoistened foot
through the Red Sea waters.
2 'Tis the spring of souls today;
Christ hath burst his prison,
and from three days' sleep in death,
as a sun hath risen;
all the winter of our sins,
long and dark, is flying
from his light, to whom we give
laud and praise undying.
3 Now the queen of seasons, bright
with the day of splendor,
with the royal feast of feasts,
comes its joy to render;
comes to glad Jerusalem,
who with true affection
welcomes in unwearied strains
Jesus' resurrection.
4 Neither might the gates of death,
nor the tomb's dark portal,
nor the watchers, nor the seal
hold thee as a mortal:
but today amidst thine own
thou didst stand, bestowing
thine own peace, which evermore
passeth human knowing.
5 "Alleluia!" now we cry
to our King immortal,
who, triumphant, burst the bars
of the tomb's dark portal;
"Alleluia!" with the Son,
God the Father praising;
"Alleluia!" yet again
to the Spirit raising. Scripture: Exodus 15:1 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. KEVIN
Come, Ye Faithful, Raise the Strain
