God, help us make your glories known

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 78 Lyrics: God, help us make your glories known, your works of power and grace: and we'll convey your wonders on to each and every race, remembering how you split the sea, and showed a pathway through; the watery walls defined the way as Israelites fled their foe. Your wondrous pillar marked their road, a guide of shade and light; by day it proved a sheltering cloud, a leading fire by night. Their need for water was supplied, abundant waters fell! A rock gushed rivers by their side — a constant miracle. And manna, like a morning shower, lay thick around their feet: the corn of heaven, so light, so pure, was their angelic meat. God, all may learn that you alone are where our hope shall stand, for we can see your glorious works, and yield to your commands Used With Tune: FARLEIGH WICK Text Sources: Psalm 78, 1st, 2nd & 3rd Parts, alt.

Mashil of Asaph

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 78 First Line: Give listening ear unto my law Lyrics: 1 Give list'ning ear unto my law, Ye people that are mine: Unto the sayings of my mouth Do you your ear encline. 2 My mouth I'll ope with parables, I'll speak of things hid of old: 3 Which we have heard and known, and which Our fathers have us told. 4 Them from their children we'll not hide But shew the age to come, The Lord his praise, his strength and works Of wonder, he hath done. 5 In Jacob he a witness set, A law in Israel He gave, which he our fathers charg'd They should their children tell. 6 That th' age to come, and children which Are to be born might know; That they who should arise the same Might to their children show 7 That they upon the mighty God Their confidence might set: God's works and his commandements Might keep and not forget, 8 And might not like their fathers be, A cross, stiff race, a race That set not right their hearts; nor firm With God their spirit was. [2] 9 The armed sons of Ephraim, That went out with their bow, Did turn their back the day wherein They did to battle go. 10 God's cov'nant they observed not, To walk in' law deny'd. 11 His works and wonders they forgot, That he to them prescrib'd. 12 He many wondrous things did work Before their father's eyes; Within the land of Egypt seen, In Zoan's field likewise. 13 Asunder he the sea did part, And caus'd them through to pass: And he the waters made to stand, That as an heap it was. 14 With cloud by day, with fire by night 15 He led the. Rocks he clave In wilderness: as from great deeps Drink unto them he gave 16 Ev'n from out the stony rock Streams he did bring also, And caused the water to run down Like as the rivers do. [3] 17 Moreover they did add yet more Against him for to sin: By their provoking the most high The wilderness within. 18 Moreover they within their heart By tempting God did try: By asking earnestly for meat Their lusts to satisfy. 19 And spake against the mighty God; Is God able (they said) Within the desart wilderness A table us to spread? 20 Lo, he the rock smote, waters thence Gush'd out, and streams did flow: Can he for's people flesh provide? Can he give bread also? 21 The Lord heard, he was wroth for this So kindled was a fire 'Gainst Jacob, and 'gainst Israel There came up wrathful ire. 22 For they in God believed not, Nor in his health did hope. 23 Tho' from above he charg'd the clouds, And door of heav'n set ope. 24 On them he manna rain'd to eat, And gave them heaven's wheat. 25 Each man of them eat angel's food; To th' full he sent them meat. 26 I'th' heav'ns he made the east wind blow Brought south wind by his pow'r. 27 He flesh on them like dust, wing'd fowls Like sand of seas did show'r. 28 And in the middest of their camp He caused it to fall; Ev'n round about on ev'ry side Their dwelling places all: 29 So they did eat, they willed were Abundantly also: For that which was their own desire He did on them bestow. [4] 30 They from their lusting appetite Were not estrang'd at all: But while their meat was in their mouth, 31 God's wrath did on them fall, And slew their fat ones, and smote down The choice of Israel's men. 32 Yea for all this they sinn'd, nor did Believe his wonders then. 33 Therefore in vanity the days He of their life did spend; And he their years brought hastily Unto a fearful end. 34 When he them slew, then after him They sought with their desire: And they return'd and after God They early did inquire. 35 Likewise that God was their strong rock They call'd to memory. And how that their redeemer was The mighty God most high. 36 Yet with their mouth they flattered, And to him their tongues ly'd. 37 Nor was their heart right with him, nor In's cov'nant did abide. 38 But full of mercy he forgave Their sin, nor them destroy'd, Nor all his anger rais'd, but oft He turn'd his wrath aside. 39 For he recalled unto mind, How that frail flesh they were; And as it were a passing wind That doth no more appear. [5] 40 How oft in desart vex'd they him, And grief put him upon? 41 Yea, they did turn, tempt God,and did Stint Israel's holy one. 42 His hand they did not keep in mind, Nor on the day they thought Wherein he from the enemy For their deliv'rance wrought. 43 He he his signs miraculous In Egypt wrought likewise: And also in the field of Zoan His fearful prodigies. 44 Also how he their rivers had Converted into blood; That they, tho' thirsty, could not drink The waters of the flood. 45 Among them which did them devour, He sent forth divers flies: Yea, to destroy them, he sent forth The noisome frogs likewise. 46 To caterpillars gave their fruit, To locusts gave their toil. 47 He did their vines destroy with hail, With frost their fig-trees spoil. [6] 48 Their cattle he deliver'd up Unto the hail also: And he their herds of cattle gave Hot thunder bolts unto. 49 He cast on them fierce ire and wrath and indignation strong: And sore distress by sending forth Ill angels them among. 50 He made a way unto his wrath, Their soul he did not save From death, but unto pestilence Their sinful lives he gave. 51 He within Egypt land also The first-born all did smite; Those who within the tents of Ham Were chiefest of their might. 52 But like a flock of sheep he made His people forth to go. And in the desart like a flock He guided them also. 53 In safety he them led likewise, So that they did not fear: But in the sea their enemies He overwhelmed there. 54 To border of his holy place Them happily he brought: Yea, even to his mountain which By his right hand be bought. 55 For them he cast the heathen out, He did their lot divide By line, and Israel's tribe he made In their tents to abide. [7] 56 Yet they did tempt and bitterly Did grieve the God most high; Also his testimomies they Kept not attentively. 57 But like their fathers back they turn'd And faithlessness did show. They turned were aside ev'n like To a deceitful bow. 58 For they to anger did provoke Him with their places high; And with their graven images Mov'd him to jealousy. 59 God hearing this was wrath, and loath'd Isr'el with hatred great. 60 So Shiloh's tent he left, the tent Which he among men set. 61 And he deliver'd up his strength Into captivity; Also into the en'mies hand His glorious majesty. 62 To sword his people gave, and was Wroth with his heritage. 63 Their young men are devour'd, their maids None gave in marriage. 64 Their priests fell by the sword; likewise Their widows did not weep. 65 Then did the Lord arise as one Awaken'd out of sleep. Like as a strong man after wine 66 Doth shout. He also smote His foes behind; so gave he them An everlasting blot. [8] 67 Then he did Joseph's tent refuse, Nor Ephraim's tribe approv'd. 68 But did the tribe of Judah chuse, Mount Zion which he lov'd. 69 His holy place he builded then Like palaces on high: Like to the earth which he confirm'd To perpetuity. 70 He of his servant David then Did his election make; And from the place of folding in The sheep he did him take. 71 From following the ews with young He did him then advance His people Jacob for to feed, Isra'ls inheritance. 72 So he them fed according to His heart's integrity; And by his skilfulness of hand Them led accordingly.

My people close Attention give

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 78 Lyrics: 1. My People close Attention give, And my Instruction wisely hear; To wholsome Words, which I shall speak, Bow an obedient list'ning Ear. 2. My Mouth shall Parables relate; And ancient Mysteries unfold; 3. Which we our selves have heard, and known; And what our Fathers have us told 4. We'll not conceal them from their Sons, But to the future Race make known, Jehovah's Praise, his mighty Strength, And wondrous Works which he hath done! 5. A Witness he, in Jacob, fix'd. In Isr'el his good Laws ordain'd; And charg'd our Fathers, all their Seed, In Knowledge of them, should be train'd. 6. That Generations yet to come, Piously taught, these Things might know; Their Children, yet unborn, might rise. And them to their Descendants show. 7. That they their Hope, on God alone, Thro' ev'ry Age, might firmly stay; The Works of God might not forget, But learn his Precepts to obey. 8. And might not, like our Fathers, prove A stubborn, and rebellious, Race: Whose Heart was not sincere vwith God, Nor Spirit stedfast in his Grace. 9. The armed Sons of Ephraim, Train'd to the Use of Dart, and Bow, In Day of Battle turn'd their Backs, And meanly fled before the Foe. ID. They broke the Cov'nant of their God, And did his sacred Laws despise: 11. Forgat his Works, and Miracles, Which he had wrought before their Eyes. Second Part 11. He Wonders to their Father's shew'd. In Zoan's Field, in Egypt's Land. 13. He clave the Sea, thro' which they pass'd, And made, in Heap's, the Waters stand. 14. He led them with a Cloud, by Day, And Fire, by Night; their Way to keep. 15. He in he Desert, clave the Rocks, And gave them Drink, as from the Deep. 16. He fetch'd out Streams, from flinty Rocks, They ran, like Rivers, by their Path. 17. Yet, in the Desert, more they sinn'd; And the Most-High provok'd to Wrath. 18. For God they tempted in their Heart, By asking Meat, as Lust them led. 19. Yea, against God they spake, and said, "Can God, in Deserts, Tables spread? 20. "'Tis true;, he smote the Rock, and thence "The Waters gush'd, and Streams o'erflow; "But can he give Supplys of Bread? "Or Flesh, on all this Host, bestow? 21. Jehovah heard, was very wroth. And flaming Fire on Jacob fell; His burning Anger fiercely rose, Against unthankful Israel. 22. Because they God would not believe; Nor in his Care, and Help, confide. 23. Tho' his Command, the Clouds above, And Doors of Hcav'n, had open'd wide. 24. He rain'd down Manna, for their Bread; And gave them Corn, from Heav'n, to eat. 25. Thus Man was fed with Angel's Food! And to th' Full he gave them Meat. 26. In Heav'n he made the East Wind blow, And rais'd the South, by his Command. 27. On them he rain'd down Flesh, like Dust; Wing'd Fowl, as Seas unnumber'd Sand. 28. He lct it fall within their Camp; And with it spread their Tents around. 29. So they did eat, and were well fill'd; For thus their own Desire he crown'd. 30. Their Lusting still remained uncur'd; But while the Meat was in their Throat, 31. God's Wrath arose, and slew their Chiefs; Down Isr'el's chosen young Men smote. Third Part 32. Yet, for all this, they sinned still; His wondrous Works gain'd no Belief. 33. Thence he their Days consum'd in vain, Their Years in terrifying Grief. 34.When some he slew, they fought him then; And turn'd to God, with early Cry. 35. They call'd to Mind he was their Rock, And their Redeemer, God Most-High. 36, But him they flatter'd with their Mouth; And with their Tongues they basely ly'd. 37. For still their Heart was not sincere; Nor in his Cov'nant did abide. 38. Yet full of Mercy, he forgave; Nor brought them to Destruction quite: Yea, oft he turn'd his Anger by; Nor once did all his Wrath excite. 39. For he remember'd, they were frail, Weak Flesh, whose greatest Strength is vain; A Puff of Wind, which flyes away, And never more returns again. 40. How oft they God provok'd, and griev'd. In Deserts, where his Pow'r was shown? 41. They turned back, and tempted God, Did limit Isr'el's holy One. Fourtb Part 42. They thought not on the Hand,nor Day, Which from their Foes Deliv'rance brought. 43. How God his Signs, in Egypt's Land, In Zoan's Field, his Wonders, wrought, 44. He turn'd their Rivers, and their Streams, To Blood; they could not drink the Gore. 45. Huge Swarms of divers Flies, and Frogs, He sent to plague, and to devour. 46. To Caterpillars, he, their Store, And Labcurs to the Locust, doom'd. 47. Their chearing Vines, he kiil'd with Hail; Their Sycomores with Frost consum'd. 48. He gave their Cattle to the Hail; their Flocks hot Thunder-Bolts devour'd. 49. On them he cast his fiercest Wrath, And Troops of evil Angels pour'd. 50. He weigh'd his Angel's Path, nor spar'd From Death; the Plague upon them came. 51. Egypt's First-born he smote, the chief, And Strength, of all the Land of Ham. 52. But forth, like Sheep, he led his Tribes; Thro' Deserts his own Flock did guide. 53. He led them safely, without Fear, Where, on their Foes, he rowl'd the Tide. 54. He them conducted, till they reach'd The Borders of his holy Land; Till to this Mountain they arriv'd, The Purchase of his own Right-hand. 55, The heathen Tribes, he did expel, Before their Face; to them divide Their Lots by Line; and made the Tribes Of Isr'el in their Tents reside. Fifth Part 56. They tempted still, and God Most-high Provok'd; nor did his Laws obey. 57. They, like their Fathers, falsly dealt; Like a false Bow, they turn'd away. 58. His Anger their high Places stir'd; Their Idols mov'd his Jealousy. 59. When God heard this, then he was wroth, And loathed Isr'el vehemently. 60. Then Sbiloh's Tent he quite forsook; Where he was wont with Men to dwell: 61. Th' Ark of his Strength he captive sold; In Hands of Foes his Glory fell. 62. He gave his People to the Sword; Against his Heritage he flam'd. 63. Their young Men were with Fire consum'd; The Nuptial Songs were rarely nam'd. 64. Their guilty Priests fell by the Sword; Nor did their Widows scarce repine. 65. Jehovah rous'd, as one from Sleep; As strong Men shout, enflam'd with Wine. 66. Then, in the hinder Parts, he smote, And put to endless Shame, their Foes. 67. Yet did he Joseph^s Tent refuse; Nor more the Tribe of Ephraim chose, 6%. But he selected Judah's Tribe; The Mountain Sion, which he lov'd. 69. There rais'd his Temple up on high; And fix'd it, like the Earth, unmov'd. 70. He chose his Servant David, whom He from the Sheepfold did advance; 71. From tending Ewes, Jacob to feed, And Isr'el, his Inheritance. 72. So he the Tribes of Isr'el led, With great Integrity of Heart; And guided all their State-Affairs, With skilfull Hands, and prudent Art.
