God, We Praise You!

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 31 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 9:1 First Line: God, we praise you! God we bless you! Lyrics: 1 God, we praise you! God, we bless you! God, we name you sovereign Lord! Mighty King whom angels worship, Father, by your church adored: all creation shows your glory, heaven and earth draw near your throne singing "Holy, holy, holy, Lord of hosts, and God alone!" 2 True apostles, faithful prophets, saints who set their world ablaze, martyrs, once unknown, unheeded, join one growing song of praise, while your church on earth confesses one majestic Trinity: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God, our hope eternally. 3 Jesus Christ, the king of glory, everlasting Son of God, humble was your virgin mother, hard the lonely path you trod: by your cross is sin defeated, hell confronted face to face, heaven opened to believers, sinners justified by grace. 4 Christ, at God's right hand victorious, you will judge the world you made; Lord, in mercy help your servants for whose freedom you have paid: raise us up from dust to glory, guard us from all sin today; King enthroned above all praises, save your people, God, we pray.

When Aimless Violence Takes Those We Love

Author: Joy F. Patterson, b. 1931 Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 9:9-10 Lyrics: 1 When aimless violence takes those we love, When random death strikes childhood's promise down, When wrenching loss becomes our daily bread, We know, O God, You leave us not alone. 2 When passing years rob sight and strength and mind Yet fail to still a strongly beating heart, And grief becomes the fabric of our days, Dear Lord, You do not stand from us apart. 3 Our faith may flicker low, and hope grow dim, Yet You, O God, are with us in our pain; You grieve with us and for us day by day, And with us, sharing sorrow, will remain. 4 Because Your Son knew agony and loss, Felt desolation, grief and scorn and shame, We know You will be with us, come what may, Your loving presence near, always the same. 5 Through long grief-darkened days help us, dear Lord, To trust Your grace for courage to endure, To rest our souls in Your supporting love, And find our hope within Your mercy sure.

Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 9 First Line: Lord, I'll thee praise, with all my heart Lyrics: 1 Lord, I'll thee praise with all my heart, Thy wonders all proclaim. 2 I will be glad and joy in thee, Most high I'll sing thy Name. 3 In turning back, my foes they'll fall, And perish at thy sight. 4 For thou maintain'st my right and cause, In throne sitt'st judging right. 5 Thou hast the heathen folk rebuk'd And wicked ones destroy'd; For ever and for evermore Thou hast their name made void. 6 Destructions (O thou foe) are come, To end perpetual: Thou hast 'stroy'd cities, they are gone, With their memorial. 7 Nevertheless Jehovah shall For evermore endure; And unto judgement he his throne Prepared hath most sure. 8 And he the habitable world Shall judge in righteousness; Unto the people judgment give He shall in uprightness. 9 A refuge for oppressed ones Jehovah shall become; A refuge high he is to them In seasons troublesome. 10 They also that do know thy name, In thee will put their trust: For them that do thee seek O Lord, Forsake thou never dost. [2] 11 O sing ye praises to the Lord, That doth in Sion dwell: The deeds also that he hath done Among the people tell. He to remembrance doth them call, When he for blood doth seek; He also never doth forget The crying of the meek. 13 Jehovah mercy on me have From them tat do me hate; Mark mine afflictions that arise, Thou lift'st me from death's gate. 14 That I on Sion's daughters gates Thy praises all my show: And that in thy salvation I may rejoyce also. 15 The heathen are sung down into The pit that they had made: Their foot is taken in the net Which privily they laid. 16 By judgment which he executes, Jehovah is made known: The wicked's snar'd in's handy work, Deep meditation. 17 The wicked shall be turned down Into the burning pit; All nations that the mighty God Continue to forget. 18 Because the needy ones shall not Forgotten be alway? The expectation of the poor For aye shall not decay: 19 O let not wretched man prevail, But O Jehovah rise; The heathen people in thy sight Let judged be likewise. 20 Jehovah do thou put in fear Ev'n ev'ry one of them: That so the nations they may know That they be sorry men. Selah.

Sing Praise to God, Whose Mighty Acts

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 9 Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God, whose mighty acts still strong in memory stand to give us hope when evil seems to gain the upper hand. Give thanks for deeds of steadfast love, for wonders new and old: for fire and cloud, for daily food, for mercies yet untold. 2 Though monuments of evil rise in marble, gilt, and stone, time’s search will find their boasts untrue, their makers’ names unknown. Mute avenues of ruins will mark where once proud cities stood, but from destruction God will save the faithful, just, and good. 3 Rise up, O God, reclaim the power usurped by mortal pride, deflate the hollow pomp of those whom rank and titles hide. Let not the needy cry unheard, the suffering hope in vain; restore the fallen, bless the meek, till peace and justice reign.
