Or who among the mighty shares The likeness that Jehovah bears. 6 With fear and reverence at His feet God's holy ones in council meet; Yea, more than all about His throne Must He be feared, and He alone. 7 O Thou Jehovah, God of Hosts, What mighty one Thy likeness boasts? In all Thy works and vast designs Thy faithfulness forever shines. 8 The swelling sea obeys Thy will, Its angry waves Thy voice can still; Thy mighty enemies are slain, Thy foes resist Thy power in vain. 9 The heavens and earth, by right divine, The world and all therein, are Thine; The whole creation's wondrous frame Proclaims its Maker's glorious Name.

O Wherefore Do the Nations Rage

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Decrees of God Lyrics: 1 O wherefore do the nations rage, And kings and rulers strive in vain, Against the Lord of earth and heaven To overthrow Messiah's reign? 2 Their strength is weakness in the sight Of Him who sits enthroned above; He speaks, and judgments fall on them Who tempt His wrath and scorn His love. 3 By God's decree His Son receives The nations for His heritage; The conquering Christ supreme shall reign As King of kings, from age to age. 4 Be wise, ye rulers of the earth, And serve the Lord with godly fear; With reverent joy confess the Son While yet in mercy He is near. 5 Delay not, lest His anger rise, And ye should perish in your way; Lo, all that put their trust in Him Are blest indeed, and blest for aye. Scripture: Psalm 2 Used With Tune: UXBRIDGE

Jesus the Man of constant Grief

Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: Decrees of God Lyrics: 1 Jesus, the Man of constant Grief, A Mourner all his Days; His Spirit once rejoic'd aloud, And turn'd his Joy to Praise. 2 Father, I thank thy wond'rous Love, That hath reveal'd thy Son To Men unlearned; and to Babes Has made thy Gospel known. 3 The Myst'ries of redeeming Grace Are hidden from the Wise, While Pride and Carnal Reas'nings join To swell and blind their Eyes. 4 Thus doth the Lord of Heav'n and Earth His great Decrees fulfil, And orders all his Works of Grace By his own Sov'reign Will. Scripture: Luke 10:21
