Thou, O Lord, Art God Alone

Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 13 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Thou, O Lord, art God alone, Everlasting is Thy throne; Through the ages men shall sing Praise of Heav’n’s eternal king. Thou, enthroned above the skies, Wilt for Zion’s help arise: Let Thy grace to her appear, For the promised time is near. 2. If with love compassionate We, Thy servants, mourn her state, Wilt not Thou, O gracious Lord, Help in Zion’s need afford? Lord, Thy glory shall appear, Kings and nations then shall fear; And Thy name shall be adored When Thy Zion is restored. 3. This all ages shall record For the glory of the Lord; Thou dost hear the humble prayer, For the helpless Thou dost care. Thou eternal art, and great, Heav’n and earth Thou didst create, Heav’n and earth shall pass away, Changeless Thou shalt live for aye. 4. As one lays a garment by, Thou wilt change the starry sky Like a vesture worn and old; But Thy years shall ne’er be told. Thou wilt make Thy servants’ race Ever live before Thy face, And forever at Thy side Children’s children shall abide. Scripture: Psalm 102 Used With Tune: ST.

Every Heart Its Tribute Pays

Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith, b. 1926 Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 4 hymnals First Line: Every heart its tribute pays Lyrics: 1 Every heart its tribute pays, every tongue its song of praise; sin and sorrow, guilt and care, brought to him who answers prayer; there by grace may humankind full and free forgiveness find; called and chosen, loved and blest, in his presence be at rest. 2 Ever while his deeds endure our salvation stands secure; he whose fingers spun the earth, gave the seas and mountains birth, tamed the ocean, formed the land, spread the skies with mighty hand: far off shores revere his Name, day and night his power proclaim. 3 Year by year, the seasons 'round sees the land with blessing crowned, where caressed by sun and rain barren earth gives life again; sunlit valleys burn with gold, nature smiles on field and fold, gifts of God in plenty poured: all things living, praise the Lord!

When Two Friends On Easter Day

Author: Christopher Wordsworth Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 When two friends on Easter day To Emmaus bent their way, On that Paschal eventide Christ was walking at their side. Then their hearts within them glowed When Himself to them He showed In the Scriptures as a king Glorified by suffering. 2 Thou art ever with us, Lord, Walking in Thy Holy Word; And Thy voice, O Savior dear. In that Word we ever hear What the holy prophets meant In the Ancient Testament, Thou art opening to our view In the brightness of the New. 3 And we, Lord, Thy presence feel When we at Thy table kneel; When we feed upon Thee there, We too at Emmaus are; Then our eyes are openèd In the breaking of the bread; Faith Thee ever present sees In Thy holy mysteries. 4 Though not kenned by carnal eye, Yet we know Thee ever nigh; Though Thou art much further gone, Even to Thy heav’nly throne, Yet we, Lord, behold Thy face Ever in Thy means of grace: There Thou walkest by our side, There Thou with us dost abide. 5 Be with us in weal and woe As we on our journey go; Be with us in every age Of our earthly pilgrimage; And on death’s dark eventide May we see Thee at our side; When we rise again, may we Live for ever, Lord, with Thee!
