And tell how large His goodness is;
Let all your powers rejoice and bless
While you record His holiness.

The morning star restores the joy. Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719

Satan Confined In Massy Chains
Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: Satan confined in massy chains Lyrics:
1 Satan confined in massy chains,
And doomed to everlasting pains,
The awful vengeance dreads and feels,
Which the almighty Thunderer deals.
2 No more can he obtain his will,
No more his dark designs fulfill;
How great soe’er his strength may be,
Yet Christ is stronger far than he.
3 Christ breaks in twain his iron bands,
And rescues captives from his hands;
Treads him beneath their feeble feet,
And makes their victory complete.
4 Exult, ye saints, your voices raise,
And shout your great deliverer’s praise;
Let every tongue and every tribe,
Salvation to the Lamb ascribe.

See, The Destruction Is Begun
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 See, the destruction is begun,
And heaps of ruin spread the ground;
With hasty strides it marches on,
And scatters consternation round.
2 Sinners in Zion take th’alarm,
The hypocrites astonished cry,
"Who with devouring flames can dwell?
Who in eternal burnings lie?"
3 God’s gracious voice the saint revives,
How sweet the heav’nly accents sound!
"Dwell thou on high, My child," He says,
"Where rocks shall guard thee all around."
4 "There shall My hand thy wants supply,
Thy water and thy bread are sure;
There shall My visits make thee glad,
While these alarming scenes endure."
5 "Then, led in joyous triumph forth,
Thine eyes the distant land shall view,
Shall see thy king in beauty dressed,
And share His royal honors, too."
6 My soul the oracle receives,
And feels its energy to cheer;
A promised Heav’n, a present God,
Forbids my grief, forbids my fear.
