All hail the Lord of Hosts who is our glorious King alone, our glorious King alone. Scripture: Psalm 24 Used With Tune: LOBT GOTT, IHR CHRISTEN Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.

O come, loud Anthems let us sing

Appears in 259 hymnals Topics: Songs of Praise to God his Majesty and Attributes Lyrics: 1 O come, loud Anthems let us sing, Loud Thanks to our Almighty King: For we our Voices high should raise, When our Salvation's Rock we praise. 2 Into his Presence let us haste To thank him for his Favours past; To him address in joyful Songs, The Praise that to his Name belongs. 3 For GOD the LORD, enthron'd in State, Is with unrivaled Glory great; A King superior far to all, Whom Gods the Heathen falsely call. 4 The Depths of Earth are in his Hand, Her secret Wealth at his Command; The Strength of Hills that threat the Skies, Subjected to his Empire lies. 5 The rolling Ocean's vast Abyss By the same sov'reign Right is his: 'Tis mov'd by his Almighty Hand, That form'd and fix'd the solid Land. 6 O let us to his Courts repair, And bow with Adoration there: Down on our Knees devoutly, all, Before the LORD our Maker fall. 7 For he's our GOD, our Shepherd he, His Flock and Pasture Sheep are we; If then you'll (like his Flock) draw near, To Day if you his Voice will hear. 8 Let not your harden'd Hearts renew, Your Fathers' Crimes and Judgments too; Nor here provoke my Wrath, as they, In desart Plains of Meribah. 9 When thro' the Wilderness they mov'd, And me with fresh Temptations prov'd, They still, thro' Unbelief, rebell'd, While they my wond'rous Works beheld. 10 They forty Years my Patience griev'd, Tho' daily I their Wants reliev'd: Then--'Tis a faithless Race, I said, Whose Hearts from me have always stray'd; 11 They ne'er will tread my righteous Path, Therefore to them in settled Wrath, Since they despis'd my Rest, I sware, That they should never enter there. Scripture: Psalm 95 Used With Tune: [O come, loud Anthems let us sing]

Thou, LORD, by strictest Search hast known

Appears in 88 hymnals Topics: Songs of Praise to God his Majesty and Attributes Lyrics: 1 Thou, LORD, by strictest Search hast known My rising up and lying down; My secret Thoughts are known to thee, Known long before conceiv'd by me. 2 Thine Eye my Bed and Path surveys, My public Haunts and private Ways; Thou know'st what 'tis my Lips would vent, My yet unutter'd Words' Intent. 3 Surrounded by thy Pow'r I stand, On every Side I find thy Hand; O Skill, for human Reach too high! Too dazzling bright for mortal Eye! 4 O, could I so perfidious be, To think of once deserting thee; Where, LORD, could I thy Influence shun, Or whither from thy Presence run? 5 If up to Heav'n I take my Flight, 'Tis there thou dwell'st enthron'd in Light, If down to Hell's infernal Plains, 'Tis there Almighty Vengeance reigns. 6 If I the Morning's Wings could gain, And fly beyond the Western Main; Thy swifter Hand would first arrive, And there arrest thy Fugitive. 7 Or should I try to shun thy Sight Beneath the sable Clouds of Night; One Glance from thee, on piercing Ray Would kindle Darkness into Day. 8 The Veil of Night is no Disguise, No Screen from thy all-searching Eyes; Thro' Midnight Shades thou find'st thy Way, As in the blazing Noon of Day. 9 Thou know'st the Texture of my Heart, My Reins and ev'ry vital Part; Each single Thread in Nature's Loom, By thee was cover'd in the Womb. 10 I'll praise thee, from whose Hands I came, A Work of such a curious Frame; The Wonders thou in me hast shown, My Soul with grateful Joy must own. 11 Thine Eyes my Substance did survey, Whilst yet a lifeless Mass it lay, In secret; how exactly wrought, Ere from its dark Enclosure brought. 12 Thou didst the shapeless Embryo see, Its Parts were register'd by thee; Thou saw'st the daily Growth they took, Form'd by the Model of thy Book. 13 Let me acknowledge too, O GOD! That since this Maze of Life I trod, Thy Thoughts of Love to me, surmount The Pow'r of Numbers to recount. 14 Far sooner could I reckon o'er The Sands upon the Ocean's Shore: Each Morn revising what I've done, I find th' Account but new begun. 15 The Wicked thou shalt slay, O GOD! Depart from me, ye Men of Blood, Whose Tongues Heav'n's Majesty profane, And take th' Almighty's Name in vain. 16 LORD, hate not I their impious Crew, Who thee with Enmity pursue? And does not Grief my Heart oppress, When Reprobates thy Law transgress? 17 Who practise Enmity to Thee, Shall utmost Hatred have from me; Such Men I utterly detest, As if they were my Foes profess'd. 18 Search, try, O GOD, my Thoughts and Heart, If Mischief lurks in any Part; Correct me, whem I go astray, And guide me in thy perfect Way. Scripture: Psalm 139 Used With Tune: [Thou, Lord, by strictest Search hast known]

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!

Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: Songs of Praise to God his Majesty and Attributes Lyrics: 1 Sing to the LORD, a new made Song; Let Earth in one assembled Throng, Her common Patron's Praise resound, Who us hath with Salvation crown'd. 2 Sing to the LORD, and bless his Name, From Day to day his Peace proclaim; To Heathen Lands his Fame rehearse, His Wonders to the Universe. 3 He's great, and greatly to be prais'd; In Majesty and Glory rais'd Above all other Deities, He only rules who made the Skies. 4 With Majesty and Honour crown'd, Beauty and Strength his Throne surround, But Pageantry and Idols all Are they, whom Gods the Heathen call. 5 Let Worship be to him restor'd, By you who have false Gods ador'd; Ascribe due Honour to his Name, That Honour he alone can claim. 6 Peace Off'rings on his Altar lay, Before his Throne your Homage pay; To worship at his sacred Court, Let all the trembling World resort. 7 Proclaim aloud, JEHOVAH reigns, Whose Pow'r the Universe sustains; Let therefore Heav'n new Joys confess, And heav'nly Rapture Earth express. 8 He banish'd Justice shall restore, Its loud Applause let Ocean roar; Its mute Inhabitants rejoice, And for his Triumph find a Voice. 9 For Joy let fertile Valleys sing, The chearful Groves their Tribute bring; The tuneful Choir of Birds awake, Their sweetest Melody to make. 10 The LORD's Approach to celebrate: Who now sets out with awful State From Heav'n, to judge the World, he's come, With Justice to reward and doom. Scripture: Psalm 96 Used With Tune: [Sing to the Lord, a new made Song]
