Appears in 18 hymnals Topics: Miracles First Line: O praise ye the Name of Jehovah Lyrics: 1 O praise ye the name of Jehovah, Proclaim ye His glory abroad; O praise Him, ye servants appointed To stand in the house of our God. 2 O praise ye the Lord for His goodness; 'Tis pleasant His praises to sing; His people, His chosen and precious, Your praises with gratitude bring. 3 I know that the Lord is almighty, Supreme is dominion is He, Performing His will and good pleasure In heav'n and in earth and the sea. 4 His hand guides the clouds in their courses, The lightning flames forth at His will, The wind and the rain he releases His sov'reign designs to fulfill. 5 To ransom His people from bondage Great wonders and signs He displayed; He smote all the firstborn of Egypt, Till Pharaoh made haste and obeyed. 6 Great nations and kings that opposed Him Were smitten by God's mighty hand; Their riches He gave to His people, And made them inherit the land. 7 Thy Name shall abide, O Jehovah, Through all generations renowned; The Lord is the judge of His people, His mercies forever abound. 8 Men's idols of gold and of silver Can speak not, nor hearken, nor see; Like them shall their makers be helpless, Unblest shall their worshipers be. 9 Ye people who worship Jehovah, His praises with gladness proclaim; His servants, and all ye that fear Him, Sing praise to His glorious Name. 10 O Church of our God, sing His praises, For with you and in you He dwells; O sing Hallelujahs before Him, Whose glory all praises excels.

Stand Up, O God, Be Present Now

Author: Michael Seward, b. 1932 Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Miracles Lyrics: 1 Stand up, O God, be present now, and all who hate you, let them run like driven smoke, like melting wax, bound for destruction, doomed to die. But let the righteous sing and dance, yes, sing and dance and shout for joy, for he who rides upon the clouds is coming, as he came of old. His justice vindicates the oppressed, he frees the pris'ner, brings him home. Refrain: Stand up, O God, be present now, and we will sing and shout for joy. 2 Stand up, O God, be present now, as once on Sinai you were heard by those who left the prison's chain, who crossed the sea and faced the sand. They ate the manna, drank from springs provided by your gracious love. They watched as mighty armies fled, and so they gained the promised land. Now, marching on to Zion's mount, we see the heav'nly hosts descend. [Refrain] 3 Stand up, O God, be present now, and we, your people, will rejoice, for you have saved us from the pit, for you have brought us back from death. So, to your holy place, we come with choirs and music, young and old. Rebuke the godless, cast them down till humbled, they for mercy call; then men shall listen for your voice as riding through the heav'ns you come. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 68 Used With Tune: STAND UP

Sin and Divine Patience

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Miracles First Line: Their God and Saviour they forgot Lyrics: 1 Their God and Saviour they forgot, Their helper and their stay, But Moses plead the promised grace And turned God's wrath away. 2 Yea, they despised the pleasant land, The promised land of God, And tempted Him to make them fall And scatter them abroad. 3 They sacrificed to heathen gods, And God their sin repaid; Then holy wrath avenged the wrong, And so the plague was stayed. 4 The Lord approved the righteous act Of him who sin abhorred, And honored him for evermore With just and great reward. 5 By wicked strife they angered God, His wrath they did provoke; And, stirred by their rebellious cries, Their leader rashly spoke. 6 Ensnared, they served the heathen gods, And by them were beguiled; The blood of children sacrificed The very land defiled. 7 Against His own inheritance Jehovah's wrath arose, His chosen people He condemned To serve their heathen foes. 8 Though from their harsh oppressors' hand Ofttimes He set them free, Rebellious still, they were brought low In their iniquity. 9 When unto God they cried, he heard And turned again His face, In boundless love remembering The covenant of His grace. 10 He even touched their captors' hearts, And made their very foes Compassionate and pitiful To feel his people's woes. 11 Save us, O Lord, our gracious God, From alien lands reclaim That we may triumph in Thy praise And bless Thy holy Name. 12 Blessed be the Lord our covenant God, All praise to Him accord; Let all the people say, Amen. Praise ye, praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 106 Used With Tune: NOTTINGHAM

For The Crowd Of Thousands

Author: Fred Kaan; Willem Barnard Meter: 6.5.6.5 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Miracles Lyrics: 1 For the crowd of thousands sitting on the ground, seven is sufficient, seven will go round. 2 Seven is sufficient, fish and loaves of bread, Jesus, for our hunger, gives us life instead. 3 Jesus makes his offer: fish and bread as food, Make us truly thankful, make our living good. 4 If we give to Jesus bread to bless and break, five and two will feed us seven days a week. 5 What we give to Jesus, and with others share, will at last be gathered: over and to spare!

The Unfailing Faithfulness of God

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Miracles First Line: O praise the Lord, His deeds make known Lyrics: 1 O praise the Lord, His deeds make known, And call upon His Name; Sing ye to Him, His praises sing, His wondrous works proclaim. 2 Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy Name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him for evermore. 3 Ye children of God's covenant, Who of His grace have heard, Forget not all His wondrous deeds And judgments of His word. 4 The Lord our God id God alone, All lands His judgments know; His promise He remembers still, While generations go. 5 While yet our fathers were but few, Sojourners in the land, He sware that Canaan should be theirs, And made His covenant stand. 6 He suffered none to do them wrong In all their pilgrim way; Yea, for their sake were kings reproved And covered with dismay. 7 His stern command restrained their foes And filled them with alarm: Touch not My own anointed ones, Nor do My prophets harm. 8 He wholly broke the staff of bread And called for famine sore, And He prepared His people's way Be sending one before. 9 Then Joseph, sold to slavery, With cruel chains was bound; Till his prediction came to pass, Distress and grief he found. 10 The king released him from his bonds And made him rule the land, Subjecting chiefs and senators To his controlling hand. 11 To Egypt Israel followed then, And there grew great and strong, Until their friends became their foes And did them grievous wrong. 12 God sent His servant Moses then, And Aaron, whom He chose; Great signs and wonders they displayed To terrify their foes. 13 In darkness they were taught to fear God's great and holy Name; On man and best, on vine and field, His awful judgment came. 14 He smote the first-born in the land, The chief of all their strength, Enriched His people with the spoil And brought them forth at length. 15 He led them forth in health and strength, None weak in all their band, And Egypt, filled with fear, rejoiced To see them leave the land. 16 He spread a cloud to cover them, Most glorious and bright, And made a fiery pillar shine To give them light by night. 17 At their request He sent them quails, And bread of heaven bestowed; and from the rock, to quench their thirst, The living waters flowed. 18 His sacred word to Abraham He kept, though waiting long, And brought His chosen people forth With joy and thankful song. 19 The lands and toil of wicked men He gave them to possess, That they might keep His holy laws; Jehovah praise and bless.

Author: Gracia Grindal Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Jesus Christ Miracles of Lyrics: 1 Behold, a woman from the city came to the place where Jesus ate, brought a box of precious ointment; with her tears the woman washed his feet, weeping as the Savior ate. 2 Behold, the woman kissed and washed him, drying him with her lovely hair, shocking those who sat with Jesus, even though they saw the woman's tears: "Does not Jesus know of her?" 3 Then he rebuked the pious Simon, "Tell me, my friend, who would love more - one who had been much forgiven or the one whose sins were small and few? Who would weep the bitterest tear? 4 "Behold, the woman is repentant. See how she gives her finest oil, for she has been much forgiven." Then he said unto the woman, "Go, go, your faith has made you whole." Scripture: Luke 7:36-50 Used With Tune: TEARS
