Bless'd be the everlasting God

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 190 hymnals Topics: Afflictions hope in them Lyrics: Blest be the everlasting God, The Father of our Lord; Be his abounding mercy praised, His majesty adored. When from the dead he raised his Son, And called him to the sky, He gave our souls a lively hope That they should never die. What though our inbred sins require Our flesh to see the dust, Yet as the Lord our Savior rose, So all his followers must. There's an inheritance divine Reserved against that day; 'Tis uncorrupted, undefiled, And cannot waste away. Saints by the power of God are kept Till the salvation come; We walk by faith as strangers here, Till Christ shall call us home. Scripture: 1 Peter 1:3-5

Appears in 37 hymnals Topics: Afflicted without Rejection Lyrics: 1 Yet (saith the Lord) if David's Race, The Children of my Son, Should break my Laws, abuse my Grace, And tempt mine Anger down. 2 Their Sins I'll visit with the Rod, And make their Folly smart; But I'll not cease to be their God, Nor from my Truth depart. 3 My Cov'nant I will ne'er revoke, But keep my Grace in Mind; And what eternal Love hath spoke, Eternal Truth shall bind. 4 Once have I sworn (I need no more) And pledg'd my Holiness, To seal the sacred Promise sure To David and his Race. 5 The Sun shall see his Offspring rise, And spread from Sea to Sea, Long as he travels round the Skies To give the Nations Day. 6 Sure as the Noon that rules the Night, His Kingdom shall endure, 'Till the fix'd Laws of Shade and Light Shall be observ'd no more. Scripture: Psalm 89:30-46

With grateful songs our hearts inspire, And round us raise a wall of fire.

When other helpers fail and comforts flee, Help of the helpless, O abide with me. 2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day; earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away. Change and decay in all around I see. O Lord who changes not, abide with me. 3 I need your presence every passing hour. What but your grace can foil the tempter's power? Who like yourself my guide and strength can be? Through cloud and sunshine, O abide with me. 4 I fear no foe with you at hand to bless, though ills have weight, and tears their bitterness. Where is death's sting? Where, grave, your victory? I triumph still, if you abide with me. 5 Hold now your Word before my closing eyes. Shine through the gloom and point me to the skies. Heaven's morning breaks and earth's vain shadows flee; in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Scripture: Psalm 102:26-27 Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
