Hymnal: The Psalter #396 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Praise For Spiritual Blessings; Praise for temporal blessings First Line: The Lord is strong to help the weak Lyrics: 1 The Lord is strong to help the weak,
Upholding those that fall,
Restoring those bowed down with grief,
And doing good to all.

From day to day supplied,
And Thou dost for their sustenance
With open hand provide.

His works His love declare,
And He is night to ev'ry one
That breathes the trustful prayer.

The Lord will satisfy;
Their mighty Saviour He will be
When unto Him they cry.
5 All those that set their love on Him
Shall full salvation know,
But wicked men and wicked ways
The Lord will overthrow.
6 My mouth shall bless the Lord my God
And all His praise proclaim;
Let all unite for evermore
To bless His holy Name. Scripture: Psalm 145 Languages: English Tune Title: FULTON
The Goodness of God
If God succeed not, all the cost
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #413 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Blessing of God on the business and comforts of life; Children made blessings Lyrics:
If God succeed not, all the cost
And pains to build the house are lost;
If God the city will not keep,
The watchful guards as well may sleep.
What if you rise before the sun,
And work and toil when day is done;
Careful and sparing eat your bread,
To shun that poverty you dread;
'Tis all in vain, till God hath blessed;
He can make rich, yet give us rest:
Children and friends are blessings too,
If God our Sovereign make them so.
Happy the man to whom he sends
Obedient children, faithful friends:
How sweet our daily comforts prove
When they are seasoned with his love!
Scripture: Psalm 127 Languages: English
If God succeed not, all the cost
If God to build the house deny
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #414 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Blessing of God on the business and comforts of life; Children made blessings Lyrics:
If God to build the house deny,
The builders work in vain;
And towns, without his wakeful eye,
A useless watch maintain.
Before the morning beams arise,
Your painful work renew;
And till the stars ascend the skies,
Your tiresome toil pursue;
Short be your sleep, and coarse your fare;
In vain, till God has blessed;
But if his smiles attend your care,
You shall have food and rest.
Nor children, relatives, nor friends,
Shall real blessings prove;
Nor all the earthly joys he sends,
If sent without his love.
Scripture: Psalm 127 Languages: English

Psalm 112
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.246 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Blessings of a person First Line: Thrice happy man who fears the Lord Lyrics:
Thrice happy man who fears the Lord,
Loves his commands, and trusts his word;
Honor and peace his days attend,
And blessings to his seed descend.
Compassion dwells upon his mind,
To works of mercy still inclined;
He lends the poor some present aid,
Or gives them, not to be repaid.
When times grow dark, and tidings spread
That fill his neighbors round with dread,
His heart is armed against the fear,
For God with all his power is there.
His soul, well fixed upon the Lord,
Draws heav'nly courage from his word;
Amidst the darkness light shall rise,
To cheer his heart and bless his eyes.
He hath dispersed his alms abroad;
His works are still before his God;
His name on earth shall long remain,
While envious sinners fret in vain.

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.304 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Blessings of a family; Friendship its blessings First Line: Blest are the sons of peace Lyrics:
Blest are the sons of peace,
Whose hearts and hopes are one,
Whose kind designs to serve and please
Through all their actions run.
Blest is the pious house
Where zeal and friendship meet;
Their songs of praise, their mingled vows,
Make their communion sweet.
Thus when on Aaron's head
They poured the rich perfume,
The oil through all his raiment spread,
And pleasure filled the room.
Thus on the heav'nly hills
The saints are bless'd above,
Where joy, like morning dew, distils,
And all the air is love.

How pleasant 'tis to see
Kindred and friends agree;
Each in their proper station move,
And each fulfil their part,
With sympathizing heart,
In all the cares of life and love!
'Tis like the ointment shed
On Aaron's sacred head,
Divinely rich, divinely sweet;
The oil through all the room
Diffused a choice perfume,
Ran through his robes, and blessed his feet.
Like fruitful showers of rain,
That water all the plain,
Descending from the neighboring hills;
Such streams of pleasure roll
Through every friendly soul,
Where love, like heav'nly dew, distils.

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #5b (1786) Topics: Blessings of a person; Blessings of a person First Line: Happy the man, whose cautious feet Lyrics: 1 Happy the man, whose cautious feet
Shun the broad way where sinners go,
Who hates the place where Atheists meet,
And fears to talk as scoffers do.
2 He loves t' employ his morning light
Among the statutes of the Lord;
And spends the wakeful hours of night,
With pleasure pond'ring o'er the word.
3 He, like a plant by gentle streams,
Shall flourish in immortal green;
And Heaven will shine with kindest beams,
On every work his hands begin.
4 But sinners find their counsels cross'd;
As chaff before the tempest flies;
So shall their hopes be blown and lost,
When the last trumpet shakes the skies.
5 In vain the rebel seeks to stand
In judgment with the pious race;
The dreadful Judge with stern command
Divides him to a different place.
6 "Strait is the Way my saints have trod,
"I bless'd the path, and drew it plain;
"But you would chuse the crooked road;
"And down it leads to endless pain. Scripture: Psalm 1 Languages: English

Hymnal: The Psalter #10 (1912) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Praise For Spiritual Blessings; Praise for temporal blessings First Line: In the fullness of thy grace Lyrics: 1 In the fulness of Thy grace
To Thy house I will repair;
Bowing tow'rd thy holy place,
In Thy fear to worship there.
Lead me in thy righteousness,
Let my foes assail in vain;
Lest my feet be turned aside,
Make Thy way before me plain.
2 False and faithless are my foes,
In their mouth no truth is found;
Deadly are the words they speak,
All their tho'ts with sin abound.
Bring, O God, their plans to nought,
Hold them guilty in thy sight,
For against Thee and thy law
They have set themselves to fight.
3 O let all that trust Thy care
Ever glad and joyful be;
Let them joy who love Thy Name,
Safely guarded, Lord, by Thee.
For a blessing from Thy store
To the righteous Thou wilt yield;
Thou wilt compass him about
With Thy favor as a shield. Scripture: Psalm 5 Languages: English Tune Title: MARTYN

Thy salvation shall make Him rejoice;
For the wish of His heart Thou didst freely accord,
The request of His suppliant voice.

With the purest of gold he is crowned;
When He asked of Thee life Thou hast made Him to live
While the ages shall circle around.
3 Thro' salvation from Thee hat His fame spread abroad,
Thou didst glory and honor impart;
Thou hast made Him most blessed forever, O God,
And Thy presence hat gladdened His heart.
4 For the King in the strength of Jehovah Most High
Did unwavering confidence place;
On the Name of Jehovah He still will rely,
And shall stand evermore in His grace.
5 By the hand of Thy might and Thy anger destroyed,
All Thy foes and their offspring shall fall;
By the evil they planned and the craft they employed
They shall never against Thee prevail.
6 Thou wilt speedily make them turn backward in flight,
When Thy arrows are aimed to destroy.
O Jehovah, be Thou far exalted in might,
And Thy pow'r shall our praises employ.

Now to the power of God supreme
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #190 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Blessings of the country Lyrics:
Now to the power of God supreme
Be everlasting honors giv'n;
He saves from hell, (we bless his name,)
He calls our wand'ring feet to heav'n.
Not for our duties or deserts,
But of his own abounding grace,
He works salvation in our hearts,
And forms a people for his praise.
'Twas his own purpose that begun
To rescue rebels doomed to die;
He gave us grace in Christ his Son
Before he spread the starry sky.
Jesus the Lord appears at last,
And makes his Father's counsels known;
Declares the great transactions past,
And brings immortal blessings down.
He dies, and in that dreadful night
Did all the powers of hell destroy;
Rising, he brought our heav'n to light,
And took possession of the joy.
