Praise to the Lord, who bows his ear

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances Public and National Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 Praise to the Lord, who bows his ear Propitious to his people's pray'r; And, though deliv'rance long delay, Answers in his well chosen day. 2 Salvation doth to God belong; His pow'r and grace shall be our song; The tribute of our love we bring To thee our Saviour and our King. 3 O temples, guarded from the flame, Shall echo thy triumphant name; And ev'ry peaceful private home To thee a temple shall become. 4 Still be it our supreme delight To walk us in thy honour'd sight; Still in thy precepts and thy fear Till life's last hour, to persevere. 5 O when shall time the period bring, When peace shall stretch her balmy wing O'er ev'ry land and ev'ry shore, And raging war shall waste no more!

Psalm 107 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals Topics: Nation's blest and punished First Line: From age to age exalt his name Lyrics: From age to age exalt his name; God and his grace are still the same; He fills the hungry soul with food, And feeds the poor with every good. But if their hearts rebel and rise Against the God that rules the skies; If they reject his heav'nly word, And slight the counsels of the Lord He'll bring their spirits to the ground, And no deliv'rer shall be found; Laden with grief, they waste their breath In darkness and the shades of death. Then to the Lord they raise their cries; He makes the dawning light arise, And scatters all that dismal shade That hung so heavy round their head. He cuts the bars of brass in two, And lets the smiling pris'ners through; Takes off the load of guilt and grief, And gives the lab'ring soul relief. O may the sons of men record The wondrous goodness of the Lord How great his works! how kind his ways! Let every tongue pronounce his praise. Scripture: Psalm 107

Is this a fast for me?

Author: Drummond Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 37 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Fast-Day Lyrics: 1 Is this a fast for me? Thus saith the Lord our God: A day for man to vex his soul And feel affliction's rod? 2 No; is not this alone The sacred fast I choose-- Oppression's yoke to burst in twain, The bands of guilt unloose? 3 To nakedness and want Your food and raiment deal, To dwell your kindred race among, And all their sufferings heal? 4 Then like the morning ray, Shall spring your health and light; Before you, righteousness shall shine, Behind, my glory bright!

Lord, from thy blessed throne

Author: Nicholl Appears in 26 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Freedom Lyrics: 1 Lord, from thy blessed throne, Sorrow look down upon! God save the poor! Teach them true liberty, Make them from tyrants free, Let their homes happy be! God save the poor! 2 The arms of wicked men Do thou with might restrain; God save the poor! Raise thou their lowliness, Succor thou their distress, Thou whom the meanest bless; God save the poor! 3 Give them stanch honesty, Let their pride manly be; God save the poor! Help them to hold the right, Give them both truth and might, Lord of all life and light! God save the poor!

No war nor battle's sound

Author: Dwight Appears in 59 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation At Peace Lyrics: 1 No war nor battle's sound Was heard the earth around-- No hostile chiefs to furious combat ran; But peaceful was the night In which the Prince of Light His reign of peace upon the earth began. 2 No conqueror's sword he bore, Nor warlike armor wore, Nor haughty passions roused to contest wild; In peace and love he came, And gentle was the reign Which o'er the earth he spread by influence mild. 3 Unwilling kings obeyed, And sheathed the battle-blade, And called their bloody legions from the field; In silent awe they wait, And close the warrior's gate, Nor know to whom their homage thus they yield. 4 The peaceful Conqueror goes, And triumphs o'er his foes, His weapons drawn from armories above; Behold the vanquished sit Submissive at his feet, And strike and hate are changed to peace and love.

On thee, O Lord our God, we call

Author: Anon. Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Fast-Day Lyrics: 1 On thee, O Lord our God, we call, Before thy throne devoutly fall; Oh, whither should the helpless fly? To whom but thee direct their cry? 2 Lord, we repent, we weep, we mourn, To our forsaken God we turn; Oh, spare our guilty country, spare The church thine hand hath planted here! 3 We plead thy grace, indulgent God! We plead thy Son's atoning blood; We plead thy gracious promises; And are they unavailing pleas? 4 These pleas, presented at thy throne, Have brought ten thousand blessings down On guilty lands in helpless woe: Let them prevail to save us, too. Scripture: Isaiah 26:9
