Salvation doth to God belong

Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XXXIV (1792) Lyrics: 1 Salvation doth to God belong, His pow'r and grace shall be our song; From him alone all mercies flow, His arm alone subdues the foe; 2 Then praise this God, who bows His ear Propitious to his people's pray'r; And though deliv'rance he may stay, Yet answers still in his own day. 3 O may this goodness lead our land, (Still sav'd by thine Almighty Hand) The tribute of its love to bring, To thee, our Saviour and our King; 4 Till ev'ry public temple raise A song of triumph to thy praise; And ev'ry peaceful private home To thee a temple shall become. 5 Still be it our supreme delight, To walk as in thy glorious sight; Still in thy precepts and thy fear, Till life's last hour to persevere.

Since Christ our Passover is slain

Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XI (1792) Lyrics: 1 Since Christ our passover is slain, A sacrifice for all; Let all, with thankful hearts, agree To keep the festival: 2 Not with the leaven, as of old, Of sin and malice fed; But with unfeign'd sincerity, And truth's unleaven'd bread. 3 Christ being rais'd by Pow'r Divine, And rescu'd from the grave, Shall die no more, death shall on him No more dominion have. 4 For that he died, 'twas for our sins He once vouchsaf'd to die: But that he lives, he lives to God, For all eternity. 5 So count yourselves as dead to sin, But graciously restor'd, And made, henceforth, alive to God, Through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Sing to the Lord a new-made song

Hymnal: SoP1792 #P.XXVII (1792) Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord a new-made sang; Let earth, in one assembled throng, Her common Patron's praise resound: Sing to the Lord, and bless his Hame, From day to day his praise proclaim, Who us has with salvation crown'd; To heathen lands his fame rehearse, His wonders to the universe. 2 Proclaim aloud, Jehovah reigns, Whose pow'r the universe sustains, And banish'd justice will restore: Let therefore heav'n new joys confess; And heav'nly mirth let earth express; Its loud applause the ocean roar; Its mute inhabitants rejoice, And for this triumph find a voice. 3 For joy let fertile vallies sings, The cheerful groves their tribute bring, The tuneful choir of birds awake, The Lord's approach to celebrate; Who now sets out with awful state, His circuits through the earth to take: From heav'n to judge the world he's come, With justice to reward and doom.

The God of life, whose constant care

Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XXIII (1792) Lyrics: 1 The God of life, whose constant care With blessings crowns each op'ning year, My scanty span doth still prolong, And waked anew mine annual song. 2 How many precious souls are fled To the vast regions of the dead, Since to this day the changing sun Through his last yearly period run. 3 We yet survive; but who can say, "Or through this year, or month, or day, "I shall retain this vital breath, "Thus far, at least, in league with death? 4 That breath is thine, eternal God; 'Tis thine to fix my soul's abode; It holds its life from thee alone On earth, or in the world unknown. 5 To thee our spirits we resign, Make them and own them still as thine; So shall they live secure from fear, Though death should blast the rising year Topics: New Year's Day Languages: English

The Lord hath spoke, the mighty God

Hymnal: SoP1792 #P.XVI (1792) Lyrics: 1 The Lord hath spoke, the mighty God Hath sent his summons all abroad, From dawning light, till day declines: The list'ning earth his voice hath heard, And he from Sion hath appear'd, Where beauty in perfection shines. 2 Our God shall come, and keep no more Misconstru'd silence, as before; But wasting flames before him send; Around shall tempests fiercely rage, While he does heav'n and earth engage His just tribunal to attend. 3 Hear, O my People, Israel, hear; Thy strong accuser I'll appear; Thy God, thy only God, am I; 'Tis not of off'rings I complain, Which, daily in my temple slain, My sacred altar did supply. 4 Think'st thou that I have any need On slaughter'd bulls and goats to feed, To eat their flesh, and drink their blood? The sacrifices I require, Are hearts which love and zeal inspire, And vows with strictest care made good. Scripture: Psalm 50:1-4 Languages: English

The Lord himself, the mighty Lord

Hymnal: SoP1792 #P.VIII (1792) Lyrics: 1 The Lord himself, the mighty Lord, Vouchsafes to be my guide; The shepherd, by whose constant care My wants are all suppy'd. 2 In tender grass he makes me feed, And gently there repose; Then leads me to cool shades, and where Refreshing water flows. 3 He does my wand'ring soul reclaim, And, to his endless praise, Instruct with humble zeal to walk In his most righteous ways. 4 I pass the gloomy vale of death, From fear and danger free; For there his aiding rod and staff Defend and comfort me. 5 Since God doth thus his wond'rous love Through all my life extend, That life to Him I will devote, And in his temple spend.

The Lord my pasture shall prepare

Author: Joseph Addison Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XXXII (1792) Lyrics: 1 The Lord my pasture shall prepare, And feed me with a shepherd's care; His presence shall my wants supply, And guard me with a watchful eye: My noon-day walks he shall attend, And all my midnight hours defend. 2 When in the sultry glebe I faint, Or on the thirsty mountain pant; To fertile vales, and dewy meads My weary, wand'ring steps he leads, Where peaceful rivers, soft and slow, Amid the verdant landskip flow. 3 Though in the paths of death I tread, With gloomy horrors overspread; My stedfast heart shall fear no ill, For thou, O Lord, art with me still: Thy friendly crook shall give me aid, And guide me through the dreadful shade. 4 Though in a bare and rugged way, Through devious lonely wilds I stray; Thy bounty shall my pains beguile, The barren wilderness shall smile, With sudden greens and herbage crown'd, And streams shall murmur all around.

The rising God forsakes the tomb

Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.X (1792) Lyrics: 1 The rising God forsakes the tomb, The stone roll'd back, at distance laid, The sealed doors wide open thrown, The resurrection is display'd. 2 The watch, affrighted, quit their post, Amazement seizes all they meet; Angels, a bright resplendent host, The weeping friends and mourners greet. 3 Break off your tears, ye saints, and tell How high our great deliv'rer reigns; Sing how He spoil'd the hosts of hell, And let the tyrant death in chains. 3 Say – live for ever, glorious King, Born to redeem, and strong to save; Then ask – "O death, where is thy sting? "And where thy victory, O grave?" Topics: Easter Day Languages: English

The soul that's fill'd with virtue's light

Hymnal: SoP1792 #H.XXVI (1792) Lyrics: 1 The soul that's fill'd with virtue's light, Shines brightest in affliction's night: To pity the distress'd inclin'd, As well as just to all mankind. 2 His lib'ral favours he extends, To some he gives, to others lends; Yet, what his charity impairs, He saves by prudence in affairs. 3 His house, the seat of wealth, shall be An inexhausted treasury; His goodness, free from all decay, Shall blessings to his heirs convey. 4 His hands, while they his alms bestow'd, His glory's future harvest sow'd! Whence he shall reap joy, peace, renown, A temp'ral and eternal crown. Topics: Charity to the Poor Languages: English
