Sweet is the work, my God, my King

Hymnal: Dr. Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #198 (1790) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 92 Lyrics: 1 Sweet is the work, my God, my King, To praise thy name, give thanks and sing, To show thy love by morning light, And talk of all thy truth at night. 2 Sweet is the day of sacred rest, No mortal cares shall seize my breast; O may my heart in tune be found, Like David's harp of solemn sound. 3 My heart shall triumph in my Lord, And bless his works, and bless his word: Thy works of grace, how bright they shine! How deep thy counsels! how divine! 4 Fools never raise their thoughts so high; Like brutes they live, like brutes they die; Like grass they flourish, 'till thy breath Blast them in everlasting death. 5 But I shall share a glorious part, When grace hath well refin'd my heart, And fresh supplies of joy are shed, Like holy oil, to cheer my head. 6 Sin (my worst enemy before) Shall vex my eyes and ears no more: My inward foes shall all be slain, Nor Satan break my peace again. 7 Then shall I see, and hear, and know, All I desir'd or wish'd below; And ev'ry pow'r find sweet employ In that eternal world of joy.

New Every Morning Is the Love

Author: John Keble (1792-1866) Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #7 (1998) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 92 Lyrics: 1 New every morning is the love our wakening and uprising prove; through sleep and darkness safely brought, restored to life and power and thought. 2 New mercies, each returning day, hover around us while we pray; new perils past, new sins forgiven, new thoughts of God, new hopes of heaven. 3 If on our daily course our mind be set to hallow all we find, new treasures still of countless price, God will provide for sacrifice. 4 Old friends, old scenes, will lovelier be, as more of heaven in each we see; some softening gleam of love and prayer shall dawn on every cross and care. 5 The trivial round, the common task, will furnish all we ought to ask; room to deny ourselves, a road to bring us daily nearer God. 6 Only, O Lord, in thy dear love, fit us for perfect rest above; and help us, this and every day, to live more nearly as we pray.
