Beautiful Saviour, King of Creation
Before Jehovah's aweful throne

Ye nations bow with sacred joy:
Know that the Lord is God alone,
He can create, and he destroy.
2 His sovereign power, without our aid,
Made us of clay, and formed us men;
And when like wandering sheep we strayed,
He brought us to his fold again.
3 We are his people, we his care,
Our souls and all our mortal frame:
What lasting honors shall we rear,
Almighty Maker, to thy Name?
4 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs,
High as the heavens our voices raise,
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise.
5 Wide as the world is thy command,
Vast as eternity thy love;
Firm as a rock thy truth shall stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move. Scripture: Psalm 100 Used With Tune: OLD HUNDREDTH

The Lamb upon his throne;
Hark! how the heavenly anthem drowns
All music but its own.
Awake, my soul, and sing
Of him who died for thee,
And hail him as thy matchless King
Through all eternity.
2 Crown him the Lord of life,
Who triumphed o'er the grave,
And rose victorious in the strife
For those he came to save.
His glories now we sing,
Who died and rose on high,
Who died, eternal life to bring,
And lives that death may die.
3 Crown him the Lord of love,
Behold his hands and side,
Rich wounds yet visible above
In beauty glorified.
No angel in the sky
Can fully bear that sight,
But downward bends his burning eye
At mysteries so bright.
4 Crown him the Lord of peace,
Whose power a sceptre sways
From pole to pole, that wars may cease,
Absorbed in prayer and praise.
His reign shall know no end,
And round his piercèd feet
Fair flowers of Paradise extend
Their fragrance ever sweet.
5 Crown him the Lord of years,
The Potentate of time,
Creator of the rolling spheres,
Ineffably sublime.
All hail, Redeemer, hail!
For thou hast died for me;
Thy praise and glory shall not fail
Throughout eternity. Used With Tune: DIADEMATA

Pudiendo entonces discernir
Su acento fiel de amor!

Let All the World Rejoice
Author: John Hunt Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: In The Beginning Creator of Heaven and Earth Lyrics: 1 Let all the world rejoice,
the Lord almighty reigns;
the thunders are his voice,
our life his will ordains:
unequalled, sov'reign and alone
in majesty he fills his throne.
2 Glad was the angel throng
to see his might prevail;
they sang their joyful song
the universe to hail;
while yet in radiant youth it stood,
th'eternal Word pronounced it good.
3 The heav'ns and earth he made
by his prevailing might;
his eye all things surveyed,
he scattered ancient night,
and heav'n and earth and sky and sea
proclaimed his glorious majesty.
4 But this fair world shall die,
the creature of a day,
in cooling ashes lie,
its glory passed away;
the pride and glory of the earth
shall be as ere they had their birth.
5 Yet ever fixed the throne
of the eternal One
shall stand when earth is gone,
and time its race has run.
New worlds his power can make at will,
new creatures can his praise fulfill.
6 The outskirts of his ways
appear to mortal sight;
the fullness of his praise
exceeds an angel's flight;
but here is truth all truth above:
mortals may bless immortal love. Scripture: Genesis 1:4 Used With Tune: CHRIST CHURCH
