Songs of praise the angels sang

Author: James Montgomery (1771-1854) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 547 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33:1-9 Lyrics: 1 Songs of praise the angels sang, heaven with alleluias rang, when creation was begun, when God spake and it was done. 2 Songs of praise awoke the morn when the Prince of peace was born; songs of praise arose when he captive led captivity. 3 Heaven and earth must pass away; songs of praise shall crown that day: God will make new heavens and earth; songs of praise shall hail their birth. 4 And shall we alone be dumb till that glorious kingdom come? No, the church delights to raise psalms and hymns and songs of praise. 5 Saints below, with heart and voice, still in songs of praise rejoice; learning here, by faith and love, songs of praise to sing above. 6 Hymns of glory, songs of praise, Father, unto thee we raise, Jesu, glory unto thee, with the Spirit, ever be.

At the Name of Jesus (Philippians 2:5-11)

Noel Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 260 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 33:6-9 First Line: At the name of Jesus Lyrics: 1 At the name of Jesus every knee shall bow, every tongue confess him King of glory now; 'tis the Father's pleasure we should call him Lord, who from the beginning was the mighty Word. 2 At his voice creation sprang at once to sight: all the angel faces, all the hosts of light, thrones and dominations, stars upon their way, all the heavenly orders in their great array. 3 Humbled for a season, to receive a name from the lips of sinners, unto whom he came; faithfully he bore it spotless to the last, brought it back victorious when from death he passed; 4 bore it up triumphant with its human light, through all ranks of creatures, to the central height, to the throne of Godhead, to the Father's breast; filled it with the glory of that perfect rest. 5 In your hearts enthrone him; there let him subdue all that is not holy, all that is not true. Look to him, your Savior, in temptation's hour; let his will enfold you in its light and power. 6 Christians, this Lord Jesus shall return again, with his Father's glory, o'er the earth to reign; for all wreaths of empire meet upon his brow, and our hearts confess him King of glory now.
