The Everlasting Mercy of God
Author: Hart Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #13 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8 Topics: The Perfections of God First Line: God's mercy is for ever sure Lyrics: 1 God’s mercy is for ever sure;
Eternal is his name;
As long as life and speech endure,
My tongue this truth proclaim.
2 I basely sinned against his love,
And yet my God was good;
His favour nothing could remove,
For I was bought with blood.
3 [That precious blood atones all sin,
And fully clears from guilt;
It makes the foulest sinner clean,
For ’twas for sinners spilt.]
4 He raised me from the lowest state,
When hell was my desert;
I broke his law, and, worse than that,
Alas! I broke his heart!
5 My soul, thou hast, let what will ail,
A never-changing Friend;
When brethren, friends, and helpers fail,
On him alone depend. Languages: English
The Everlasting Mercy of God
The Holiness of God
Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #15 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Perfections of God First Line: How shall I praise the eternal God Lyrics: 1 How shall I praise the eternal God,
That infinite Unknown?
Who can ascend his high abode,
Or venture near his throne?
2 Heaven’s brightest lamps, with him compared,
How mean they look, and dim!
The holy angels have no spots,
Yet can’t compare with him.
3 Holy is he in all his works,
And truth is his delight;
But sinners, and their wicked ways,
Shall perish from his sight.
4 None but his favourites may draw near,
Who stand in Christ complete;
Those holy ones shall all appear
And worship at his feet.
5 In Jesus’ image shining bright
With rapture they adore
The holy, holy, holy Lord, Languages: English
The Holiness of God
Ye sons of men, in sacred lays
Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #37 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Being and Perfections of God Lyrics: 1 Ye sons of men, in sacred lays,
Attempt the great Creator's praise;
But who an equal song can frame?
What verse can reach the lofty theme?
2 He sits enthron'd amidst the spheres,
And glory like a garment wears;
While boundless wisdom, pow'r, and grace,
Command our awe, transcend our praise.
3 Before his throne a shining band
Of cherubs and of seraphs stand;
Ethereal spirits, who in flgiht
Outstrip the rapid speed of light.
4 To God all nature owes its birth,
He form'd this pond'rous globe of earth,
He raised the glorious arch on high,
And measur'd out the azure sky.
5 In all our Maker's grand designs,
Omnipotence with wisdom shines.
His works, through all this wondrous frame,
Bear the great impress of his name.
6 Rais'd on devotion's lofty wing,
Let us his high perfections sing:
O let his praise employ our tongue,
Whilst list'ning worlds applaud the song!
Ye sons of men, in sacred lays
O God, most holy are thy ways
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #41 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: God Divine Perfections of Lyrics: 1 O God, most holy are thy ways,
And who like thee deserves my praise?
Thou only doest wondrous things,
The whole wide world thy glory sings;
Thine outstretched arm thy people saved,
Though sore distressed and long enslaved.
2 O God, from thee the waters fled,
The depths were moved with mighty dread,
The swelling clouds their torrents poured,
And o'er the earth the tempest roared;
'Mid light'ning's flash and thunder's sound
Great trembling shook the solid ground.
3 Thy way was in the sea, O God,
Through mighty waters, deep and broad;
None understood but God alone,
To man thy footsteps were unknown;
But safe thy people thou didst keep,
Almighty Shepherd of thy sheep.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 77:13-20 Languages: English Tune Title: THE LORD'S PRAYER (VATER UNSER)
O God, most holy are thy ways
O God, no longer hold thy peace
Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #57 (1961) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: God Divine Perfections of Lyrics: 1 O God, no longer hold thy peace,
No longer silent be;
Thine enemies lift up their head
To fight thy saints and thee.
Against thine own, whom thou dost love,
Their craft thy foes employ;
They think to cut thy people off,
Thy church they would destroy.
2 Thine ancient foes, conspiring still,
With one consent agree,
And they who with thy people strive
Make war, O God, with thee.
O God, who in our fathers' time
Didst smite our foes and thine,
So smite thine enemies today
Who in their pride combine.
3 Make them like dust and stubble blown
Before the whirlwind dire,
In terror driv'n before the storm
Of thy consuming fire.
Confound them in their sin till they
To thee for pardon fly,
Till in dismay they, trembling, own
That thou art God Most High.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 83 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MATTHEW

Resist his will, distrust his care,
Or murmur at his wise decrees,
Or doubt his royal promises?
3 The Lord is King! Child of the dust,
The Judge of all the earth is just;
Holy and true are all his ways:
Let ev'ry creature speak his praise.
4 Alike pervaded by his eye,
All parts of his dominion lie;
This world of ours, and worlds unseen,
And thin the boundary between.
5 One Lord, one empire, all secures;
He reigns, and life and death are yours:
Through earth and heav'n one song shall ring,
"The Lord omnipotent is King!"

Around the world his lightnings blaze;
The trembling earth his presence knows,
The mountains melt before his gaze.

Through earth his glory shines abroad;
From idol worship turn with shame
And bow before the living God.

Thy judgments in the earth, O Lord;
Thy glory to the world unfold,
Supreme o'er all be thou adored.

Hate sin, for he is just and pure;
To saints his help he will accord
And keep them in his love secure.

To bless them in the harvest-time;
Ye saints, your joy in God make known
And ever praise his Name sublime.

Before Jehovah's awful throne
Author: Isaac Watts; John Wesley Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #62 (1961) Topics: God Divine Perfections of Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's awful throne,
Ye nations, bow with sacred joy:
Know that the Lord is God alone,
He can create, and he destroy,
He can create, and he destroy.
2 His sovereign pow'r, without our aid,
Made us of dust, and formed us men;
And when like wand'ring sheep we strayed,
He brought us to his fold again,
He brought us to his fold again.
3 We are his people, we his care,
Our souls, and all our mortal frame;
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to thy Name?
Almighty Maker, to thy Name?
4 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs,
High as the heav'ns our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise,
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise.
5 Wide as the world is thy command,
Vast as eternity thy love;
Firm as a rock thy truth must stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move,
When rolling years shall cease to move.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 100 Languages: English Tune Title: PARK STREET

With glory clad, with strength arrayed

The world's foundations strongly laid,
And the vast fabric still sustains.

Which shall no change or period see!
For thou, O Lord, and thou alone,
Art God from all eternity.
3 The floods, O Lord, lift up their voice,
And toss the troubled waves on high;
But God above can still their noise,
And make the angry sea comply.
4 Thy promise, Lord, is ever sure,
And they that in thy house would dwell,
That happy station to secure,
Must still in holiness excel.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 93 Languages: English Tune Title: MENDON
