Lord God, to You We All Give Praise
Author: Philipp Melanchthon, 1497-1560; Emanuel Cronenwett, 1841-1931 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 21 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord God, to you we all give praise;
To you our joyful hymns we raise
That angel hosts you did create
Around your glorious throne to wait.
2 They shine with light and heav'nly grace
And constantly behold your face.
They heed your voice; they know it well;
In godly wisdom they excel.
3 They never rest nor sleep as we;
Their whole delight is but to be
With you, Lord Jesus, and to keep
Your little flock, your lambs and sheep.
4 The ancient dragon is their foe;
His envy and his wrath they know.
So now he subtly lies in wait
To ruin school and church and state.
5 But watchful is the angel band
That follows Christ on ev'ry hand
To guard his people where they go
And break the counsel of the foe.
6 O Lord, awaken songs of praise
For angel hosts that guard our days;
Teach us to serve you and adore
As angels do forevermore. Topics: St. Michael and All Angels; St. Michael and All Angels Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM

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.

Your Holy Spirit's dwelling-place;

And while our lips your praises tell,
May faithful lives your glory show.

And find a welcome at our door.

With glad obedience to your will. Topics: Christian Home; Christian Home Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM

Lord, What a Thoughtless Wretch Was I
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 127 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Lord, what a thoughtless wretch was I,
To mourn, and murmur, and repine,
To see the wicked placed on high,
In pride and robes of honor shine.
2. But O their end, their dreadful end!
Thy sanctuary taught me so;
On slippery rocks I see them stand,
And fiery billows roll below.
3. Now let them boast how tall they rise,
I’ll never envy them again;
There they may stand with haughty eyes,
Till they plunge deep in endless pain.
4. Their fancied joys, how fast they flee!
Just like a dream when man awakes;
Their songs of softest harmony
Are but a preface to their plagues.
5. Now I esteem their mirth and wine
Too dear to purchase with my blood;
Lord, ’tis enough that Thou art mine,
My life, my portion, and my God. Used With Tune: DEUS TUORUM MILITUM Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
