Now be the God of Israel bless'd

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #520 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: Now be the God of Isr'el blessed, Who makes his truth appear; His mighty hand fulfils his word, And all the oaths he sware. Now he bedews old David's root With blessings from the skies; He makes the Branch of Promise grow, The promised Horn arise. [John wns the prophet of the Lord, To go before his face; The herald which our Savior God Sent to prepare his ways. He makes the great salvation known, He speaks of pardoned sins; While grace divine, and heav'nly love, In its own glory shines. "Behold the Lamb of God," he cnes. "That takes our guilt away; I saw the Spirit o'er his head, On his baptizing day.] "Be every vale exalted high, Sink every mountain low; The proud must stoop, and humble souls Shall his salvation know. "The heathen realms with Isr'el's land Shall join in sweet accord And all that's born of man shall see The glory of the Lord. "Behold the Morning Star arise, Ye that in darkness sit; He marks the path that leads to peace, And guides our doubtful feet." Scripture: Luke 1:68 Languages: English

Psalm 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.5 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: Why did the nations join to slay Lyrics: Why did the nations join to slay The Lord's anointed Son? Why did they cast his laws away, And tread his gospel down? The Lord, that sits above the skies, Derides their rage below; He speaks with vengeance in his eyes, And strikes their spirits through. "I call him my Eternal Son, And raise him from the dead; I make my holy hill his throne, And wide his kingdom spread. "Ask me, my Son, and then enjoy The utmost heathen lands: Thy rod of iron shall destroy The rebel that withstands." Be wise, ye rulers of the earth, Obey th' anointed Lord, Adore the King of heav'nly birth, And tremble at his word. With humble love address his throne; For if he frown, ye die: Those are secure, and those alone, Who on his grace rely. Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English

Psalm 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.6 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: Why did the Jews proclaim their rage? Lyrics: Why did the Jews proclaim their rage? The Romans, why their swords employ? Against the Lord their powers engage, His dear Anointed to destroy? "Come, let us break his bands," they say, "This man shall never give us laws:" And thus they cast his yoke away, And nailed the Monarch to the cross. But God, who high in glory reigns, Laughs at their pride, their rage controls, He'll vex their hearts with inward pains, And speak in thunder to their souls. "I will maintain the King I made On Zion's everlasting hill; My hand shall bring him from the dead, And he shall stand your Sovereign still." [His wondrous rising from the earth Makes his eternal Godhead known; The Lord declares his heav'nly birth, "This day have I begot my Son. "Ascend, my Son, to my right hand, There thou shalt ask, and I bestow, The utmost bounds of heathen lands; To thee the Northern Isles shall bow."] But nations that resist his grace Shall fall beneath his iron stroke; His rod shall crush his foes with ease, As potters' earthen work is broke. Now, ye that sit on earthly thrones, Be wise, and serve the Lord, the Lamb; Now at his feet submit your crowns, Rejoice and tremble at his name. With humble love address the Son, Lest he grow angry, and ye die; His wrath will burn to worlds unknown, If ye provoke his jealousy. His storms shall drive you quick to hell; He is a God, and ye but dust: Happy the souls that know him well, And make his grace their only trust. Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English

Here at thy cross, my dying God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #192 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: Here at thy cross, my dying God, I lay my soul beneath thy love, Beneath the droppings of thy blood, Jesus, nor shall it e'er remove. Not all that tyrants think or say, With rage and lightning in their eyes, Nor hell shall fright my heart away, Should hell with all its legions rise. Should worlds conspire to drive me thence, Moveless and firm this heart should lie; Resolved, (for that's my last defence,) If I must perish, there to die. But speak, my Lord, and calm my fear; Am I not safe beneath thy shade? Thy vengeance will not strike me here, Nor Satan dares my soul invade. Yes, I'm secure beneath thy blood, And all my foes shall lose their aim: Hosannah to my dying God, And my best honors to his name. Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English

Naked as from the earth we came

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #331 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: Naked as from the earth we came, And crept to life at first, We to the earth return again, And mingle with our dust. The dear delights we here enjoy, And fondly call our own, Are but short favors borrowed now, To be repaid anon. 'Tis God that lifts our comforts high, Or sinks them in the grave; He gives, and, blessed be his name! He takes but what he gave. Peace, all our angry passions, then; Let each rebellious sigh Be silent at his sovereign will, And every murmur die. If smiling mercy crown our lives, Its praises shall be spread; And we'll adore the justice too That strikes our comforts dead. Scripture: Job 1:21 Languages: English

Maker and Sovereign Lord

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P2a (1766) Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the Kingdom Lyrics: 1 [Maker and Sovereign Lord Of Heaven, and Earth, and Seas, Thy Providence confirms thy Word, And answers thy Decrees. 2 The Things so long foretold By David are fulfill'd, When Jews and Gentiles join to slay Jesus, thine only Child.] 3 Why did the Gentiles rage, And Jews with one Accord Bend all their Counsels to destroy Th' Anointed of the Lord? 4 Rulers and Kings agree To form a vain Design; Against the Lord their Pow'rs unite, Against his Christ they join. 5 The Lord derides their Rage, And will support his Throne; He that hath rais'd him from the Dead, Hath own'd him for his Son. Pause 6 Now he's ascended high, And asks to rule the Earth; The Merit of his Blood he pleads, And pleads his heav'nly Birth. 7 He asks, and GOD bestows A large Inheritance; Far as the World's remotest Ends His Kingdom shall advance. 8 The Nations that rebel Must feel his Iron Rod: He'll vindicate those Honours well Which he received from GOD. 9 [Be wise, ye Rulers, now, And worship at his Throne; With trembling Joy, ye People, bow, To GOD's exalted Son. 10 If once his Wrath arise, Ye perish on the Place; Then blessed is the Soul that flies For Refuge to his Grace.] Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English
