The National Anthem (The Star Spangled Banner)
Author: Francis Scott Key, 1779-1843 Meter: Irregular Appears in 446 hymnals Topics: Adoration and Praise First Line: O say can you see by the dawn's early light Lyrics: 1 O say can you see by the dawn's early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight,
O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there.
O say does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
2 On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep,
Where the foe's haughty host in dead silence reposes,
What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep,
As it fitfully blows half conceals, half discloses?
And catches the gleam of the morning's first beam,
In full glory reflected now shines on the stream,
'Tis the Star-Spangled Banner O long may it wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!
3 O thus be it ever, when free men shall stand
Between their loved homes and the war's desolation!
Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation!
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! Scripture: Psalm 68:4 Used With Tune: STAR-SPANGLED BANNER

When all Thy mercies, O my God
Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Appears in 1,003 hymnals Topics: The Godhead Adoration and Praise Lyrics: 1. When all Thy mercies, O my God,
My rising soul surveys,
Transported with the view, I'm lost
In wonder, love, and praise.
2. Unnumbered comforts on my soul
Thy tender care bestowed,
Before my infant heart conceived
From whom those comforts flowed.
3. When in the slippery paths of youth
With heedless steps I ran,
Thine arm, unseen, conveyed me safe,
And led me up to man.
4. Through hidden dangers, toils, and deaths,
It gently cleared my way;
And through the pleasing snares of vice,
More to be feared than they.
5. Through every period of my life
Thy goodness I'll pursue;
And after death, in distant worlds,
The pleasing theme renew.
6. Through all eternity, to Thee
A grateful song I'll raise;
But O, eternity's too short
To utter all Thy praise! Used With Tune: AZMON
When all Thy mercies, O my God
Praise waits in Zion, Lord, for thee
Appears in 64 hymnals Topics: Adoration and Praise General Praise Lyrics: 1 Praise waits in Zion, Lord for thee;
Thy saints adore thy holy name;
Thy creatures bend the obedient knee,
And humbly thy protection claim.
2 Thy hand has raised us from the dust;
The breath of life thy Spirit gave.
Where bu in thee can mortals trust?
Who but our god has power to save?
3 Here at the portal of thy house,
We leave our mortal hopes and fears;
Answer our prayers and bless our vows,
Accept our praise and dry our tears.
4 So shall our sun of hope arise
With brighter and still brighter ray,
Till thou shalt bless our longing eyes
With beams of everlasting day.

Tune my heart to sing Thy grace;
Streams of mercy, never ceasing,
Call for songs of loudest praise:
Teach me some melodious sonnet,
Sung by flaming tongues above;
Praise the mount! I'm fixed upon it,
Mount of Thy redeeming love.
2 Here I raise mine Ebenezer;
Hither by Thy help I'm come;
And I hope, by Thy good pleasure,
Safely to arrive at home:
Jesus sought me when a stranger,
Wand'ring from the fold of God;
He, to rescue me from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
3 Oh, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let Thy grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee:
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it,
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it for Thy courts above. Scripture: 1 Samuel 7:12 Used With Tune: NETTLETON
