Not All the Blood of Beasts

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 607 hymnals Topics: Way of Salvation Faith and Justification Lyrics: 1 Not all the blood of beasts, On Jewish altars slain, Could give the guilty conscience peace, Or wash away the stain. 2 But Christ, the heavenly Lamb, Takes all our sins away; A Sacrifice of nobler name, And richer blood than they. 3 My faith would lay her hand On that dear head of Thine, While like a penitent I stand, And there confess my sin. 4 My soul looks back to see The burden Thou didst bear, When hanging on the cursèd tree, I know her guilt was there. 5 Believing, we rejoice To see the curse remove; We bless the Lamb with cheerful voice, And sing His bleeding love.

God is our Refuge and our Strength

Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 25 hymnals Topics: Mystery of God's Ways Lyrics: 1 God is our Refuge and our Strength, Our ever present aid, And, therefore, though the earth remove, We will not be afraid; Though hills amidst the seas be cast, Though foaming waters roar, Yea, though the mighty billows shake The mountains on the shore. 2 A river flows whose streams make glad The city of our God, The holy place wherein the Lord Most high has his abode; Since God is in the midst of her, Unmoved her walls shall stand, For God will be her early help, When trouble is at hand. 3 The nations raged, the kingdoms moved, But when his voice was heard The troubled earth was stilled to peace Before his mighty word. The Lord of Hosts is on our side, Our safety to secure, The God of Jacob is for us A refuge strong and sure. 4 O come, behold what wondrous works Jehovah's hand has wrought; Come, see what desolation great He on the earth has brought. To utmost ends of all the earth He causes war to cease; The weapons of the strong destroyed, He makes abiding peace. 5 Be still and know that I am God, O'er all exalted high; The subject nations of the earth My Name shall magnify. The Lord of Hosts is on our side, Our safety to secure, The God of Jacob is for us A refuge strong and sure. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 46 Used With Tune: MATERNA Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912

God is the refuge of his saints

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 465 hymnals Topics: Mystery of God's Ways Lyrics: 1 God is the refuge of his saints, When storms of sharp distress invade; Ere we can offer our complaints, Behold him present with his aid. 2 Let mountains from their seats be hurled Down to the deep, and buried there, Convulsions shake the solid world, Our faith shall never yield to fear. 3 Loud may the troubled ocean roar; In sacred peace our souls abide, While ev'ry nation, ev'ry shore, Trembles, and dreads the swelling tide. 4 There is a stream whose gentle flow Supplies the city of our God; Life, love, and joy, still gliding through, And wat'ring our divine abode. 5 That sacred stream, thy holy Word, Our grief allays, our fear controls; Sweet peace thy promises afford, And give new strength to fainting souls. 6 Zion enjoys her Monarch's love, Secure against a threat'ning hour; Nor can her firm foundations move, Built on his truth, and armed with pow'r. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 46 Used With Tune: WARD
