Majesty, Worship His Majesty
Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing
Author: Robert Robinson, 1755-1790 Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 2,209 hymnals Topics: The Assembly at Worship Adoration and Praise First Line: Come, thou Fount of ev'ry blessing Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of ev'ry blessing,
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise:
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it,
Mount of Thy redeeming love.
2 Here I raise mine Ebenezer;
Hither by Thy help I'm come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home:
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wand'ring from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let Thy grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above. Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Used With Tune: NETTLETON

In Thy sole glory may unite.

My God, I Love You, Not Because
Author: Francis Xavier; Edward Caswall Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 208 hymnals Topics: Christ--Adoration and praise Lyrics: 1 My God, I love you, not because
I hope for heav'n thereby;
nor yet because if I love not,
I must forever die;
2 But, O my Jesus, you did me
upon the cross embrace;
for me you bore the nails and spear
and manifold disgrace.
3 Then why, O blessed Jesus Christ,
should I not love you well;
not for the sake of winning heav'n,
or of escaping hell?
4 E'en so I love you and will love,
and in your praise will sing,
solely because you are my God
and my eternal King. Scripture: 1 John 4:7-21 Used With Tune: ST. JAMES
My God, I Love You, Not Because
The National Anthem (The Star Spangled Banner)
Author: Francis Scott Key, 1779-1843 Meter: Irregular Appears in 445 hymnals Topics: ADORATION AND PRAISE First Line: O say can you see by the dawn's early light Lyrics: 1 O say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
2 On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dead silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows half conceals, half discloses?
And catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines on the stream,
'Tis the Star-Spangled Banner O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
3 O thus be it ever, when free men shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation!
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! Scripture: Psalm 68:4 Used With Tune: STAR-SPANGLED BANNER
The National Anthem (The Star Spangled Banner)
