Give Thanks to God, call on his Name
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 105 Lyrics: 1. Give Thanks to God, call on his Name;
And make his Deeds to Nations known:
2. Sing ye, in sacred Hymns, his Praise;
Let all his wondrous Works be shown.
3. Praise in his holy Name; and let
Your Hearts rejoice, that seek the Lord.
4. Seek ye the Lord, his Strength, and Face;
Thus ever be the Lord ador'd.
5. Remember what great Works he wrought;
What Judgments from his Mouth proceed;
6. O ye his Servants, Abr'am's Race,
And ye his chosen Jacob's Seed.
7. He's specially the Lord, our God;
His Judgments thro' the Earth extend.
8. His Cov'nant firm has ever stood;
Nor shall a Thousand Ages End.
9. Which Cov'nant he with Abr'am made;
And with an Oath to Isaac swore:
10. With Jacob fix'd it for a Law,
And with his Heirs forevermore.
11. "Canaan, said he, to thee I'll give,
"The Lot your Children shall command:
12. When they, in Number, were but few.
Yea, few, and Strangers in the Land.
13. When they among the Nations went,
And still from Realm to Realm remov'd;
14. He suffer'd none to do them wrong;
Yea, Monarchs, for their Sakes, reprov'd.
15. Touch not, said he, my Servants dear,
Whom I've anointed by mine Arm;
And, at your Peril, see that ye,
Not, in the least, my Prophets harm.
Second Part
16. At length, a Famine thro' the Land,
He sent; which brake the Staff of Bread.
17. He first a Man, ev'n Joseph, sent;
Who, sold a Slave, to Ham was led.
18. His Feet they hurt with heavy Chains;
It pierc'd his Soul to wound his Name.
19. Until the Time his Word took Place;
God's Word, which try'd, and clear'd his Fame.
20. The King his royal Edict gave,
To set him free from all his Bands.
21. He made him Lord of all his House;
And Ruler over all his Lands.
22. Princes at Pleasure to controul;
Wisely his Senators to guide.
23. Then Isr'el down to Egypt came;
Did there a Sojourner reside.
24. His People greatly he encreas'd,
And bless'd with numerous Families:
He made them soon in Strength exceed
Their proud oppressing Enemies:
25. For he had turn'd their Hearts to hate
His People, they in Love received;
They sought his Servants to destroy,
Them oft by subtile Arts deceiv'd.
Third Part
26. His Servant Moses then he sent,
With chosen A'ron, in his Name;
27. Confirm'd their Word, with pow'rful Signs,
And Wonders, in the Land of Ham.
28. Darkness he call'd, thick Darkness came;
Nature the sov'reign Orders knew.
29. He turn'd their Waters into Blood;
Which the amazed Fishes slew.
30. Their Land abundant Frogs produc'd;
Which climb'd the Chambers of their Kings.
31. He spake, came Swarms of diverse Flies;
Dust, thro' their Land, to Lice up springs.
32. For Rain, he pour'd down Storms of Hail;
And flaming Fire their Land annoy'd.
33. Their fruitful Vines, and Fig-Trees, smote;
And, thro' their Coasts, their Trees destroy'd.
34. Locusts, and various Reptiles came,
At his Command; their Swarms abound.
35. Each green Herb, thro' the Land,they eat;
And naked left the fruitless Ground.
36. Then, by one fatal Mid-night Stroke,
Which, thro' each Town, and Village, flew,
He all their First-born sudden smote;
The Fiow'r of all their Strength he slew.
Fourth Part
37. With Gold and Silver Spoils, he brought,
Them, forth from Egypt's hated Ground;
None feeble, in their num'rous Tribes;
No, not so much as one was found.
38. Egypt rejoic'd, when they with-drew ;
For on them seized Isr'els Dread.
39. A cov'ring Cloud he spread, by Day;
And Fire, by Night, their Marches led.
40. They ask'd; he bro't sweet Quails' & they,
With Bread from Heav'n, were satisfy'd.
41. He clave the Rock; the Waters gush'd,
And Rivers in dry Land supply'd.
42. On's promise, made to Abraham,
Bound by his Holiness, he thought.
43. With Joy his People, his Elect,
With Songs of Triumph, forth he brought.
44. To them he gave the Heathen's Soil,
Ev'n promis'd Canaan's fertile Lands;
The People's Labours they enjoy'd,
All built, and planted, to their Hands.
45. That thus oblig'd, his Statutes they
Might carefully observe always;
And ne'er forget to keep his Laws:
Therefore let all Jehovah praise.
Give Thanks to God, call on his Name
O praise the Lord, call on his name
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 105 Lyrics: 1 O praife the Lord, call on his name,
To people shew his facts.
2 Sing to him, sing psalms to him, talk
Ox all his wond'rous acts.
3 Let their hearts joy who seek the Lord,
Boast in his holy name.
4. The Lord seek, and his strength, his face
Seek ye always the same.
5 Remember ye what he hath done,
Each admirable deed,
His wonders and his judgments which
Did from his mouth prcceed.
6 O ye his servant Abraham's seed
Ye Jacob's chosen sons.
7 He is the Lord our God, through all
The earth hie judgments run.
8 His covenant for evermore,
And his commanded word
A thousand generations to
He doth in mind record.
9 The covenant which he before
Did unto Abr'ham make:
And unto Isaac afterward
Likewise an oath did take/
10 And unto Jacob for a law
He did confirm it fast;
To Ifr'el for a covenant
That evermore should last.
11 I'll surely give thee Canaan's land
To be thy lot, he said.
12 When they but few, yea very few,
And strangers in it stray'd.
13 When they did from one nation
Another pass unto:
When as they from one kingdom did
To other people go.
14 He suffer'd mone to do them wrong,
Yea kings for them check'd he.
15 Touch ye not mine anointed ones,
My prophets harm not ye.
16 He call'd for famine on the land,
He brake the staff of bread.
17 Before them sent one whom they sold
Joseph a slave was made.
18 Whose feet they did with fetters hurt,
He did in irons lie,
19 Until the time his word did come*,
The Lord's word did him try.
20 The king, the peoples ruler sent,
Loos'd him and let him go.
2i He made him lord of all his house,
Of all's wealth ruler too.
22 That he his noble peers might bind
According to his will;
And that into his senators
He wisdom might instil.
23 Then also into Egypt land
His father Ifra'l came:
And Jacob was a sojourner
Within the land of Ham.
24 He much increas'd his folk, and made
Them than their foes more strong.
25 Their heart he turn'd his folk to hate,
To do his servants wrong.
[3]
26 His servant Moses he did send,
And Aaron whom he chose.
27 His signs and wonders them among
They in Ham's land disclose.
28 He darkness sent, and made it dark,
Nor did they 's word gainsay.
29 He turn'd their waters into blood,
And he their fish did slay.
30 Great store of frogs their land bro't forth
In chambers of their kings.
31 He spake, there came flies swarms, and lice
In all their coast he brings.
32 He gave them hail for rain, and in
Their land fires flame did make.
33 Their vines and fig-trees smote and thro'
Their coast the trees he brake.
34 He spake, and then the locusts forth
And caterpillars came,
In multitudes of armies, so
That none could number them.
35 All their land's herbs they eat, and fruit
Did of their ground devour.
36 All first-born in their land he smote,
The chief of all their pow'r.
[4]
37 He also thence did bring them forth
With silver and with gold
And there was not among their tribes
A feeble person told,
38 At their out-going Egypt joy'd,
For on them fell their dread:
39 A cloud for cov'ring, and a fire
To light the night he spread.
46 They ask'd, and he brought quails, with bread
He fill'd them from the sky.
41 He clave the rock, and water flow'd,
Floods ran in places dry.
42 For on his holy promise he,
And servant Abram thought
43 With joy his people and with songs
Forth he his chosen brought.
44 He of the heathen people did
The land on them bestow;
The labour of the people they
Inherited also.
45 To this great end, that so they might
His statutes keep always,
And that they might his laws observe:
Therefore Jehovah praise.
O praise the Lord, call on his name
O render Thanks and bless the LORD
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 105 Lyrics: 1 O render Thanks and bless the LORD,
Invoke his ever sacred Name;
Acquaint the Nations with his Deeds,
His great and matchless Deeds proclaim:
His wond'rous Works in Hymns rehearse,
Make them the Subject of your Verse.
2 Rejoice in his Almighty Name,
Which only ought to be ador'd;
And let their Hearts o'erflow with Joy,
Who seek with humble Fear the LORD:
Seek ye the LORD, his Strength implore,
Seek ye his Face for evermore.
3 The Wonders that his Hands have wrought,
Keep ever thankfully in Mind;
With all the Statutes of his Mouth,
And Laws he hath to us assign'd:
His Works are glorious to the View,
His Judgments all are just and true.
4 Know ye, his Servant Abra'm's Seed,
And likewise Jacob's chosen Race;
He's still our GOD, and through the Earth,
His righteous Judgments will take Place:
His Word, for Thousand Ages past,
Hath stood, and shall for ever last.
5 His Cov'nant first to Abra'am sign'd,
By Oath to Isaac made secure;
To Jacob and his Heirs, confirm'd,
A Law for ever to endure:
A Testament to Israel made,
Is on a firm Foundation laid.
6 That Canaan's Land should be their Lot,
When yet but few of them there were:
But few in Number, and those few
Forlorn and helpless Strangers there:
From Realm to Realm secure they mov'd,
Whilst Kings were for their Sakes reprov'd.
7 "These mine Anointed are (said he)
"Let none my chosen Servants wrong;
"Nor treat the poorest Prophet ill,
"That doth to me, his GOD, belong."
AT last he made their Corn to fail,
And through the Land a Dearth prevail.
8 But Joseph he had sent before,
Who for a Slave was sold and bound;
His Feet, secur'd within the Stocks,
Did galling Irons pierce and wound:
'Till GOD's appointed Time and Word,
Had try'd him, and did Help afford.
9 The King then sent, and set him free,
And Lord of all his Houshold made;
His Wealth he gave to him in Charge,
Before him all his Counsels laid.
That he might teach his Statesmen Skill,
And tell the Princes of his Will.
Part II
10 To Egypt then, invited Guests,
With Speed, half famish'd Israel came;
And Jacob, though a Stranger, held
By royal Grant the Land of Ham:
There GOD his People multiply'd,
'Till they with their Oppressors vy'd
11 Their vast Increase th'Egyptian's Hearts,
With Jealousy and Anger fir'd;
'Till they his Servants to destroy,
With secret Treachery conspir'd:
Their Hearts against his People turn'd,
Their Breasts with inward Envy burn'd.
12 His Servant Moses then he sent,
He sent his chosen Aaron too;
Empow'r'd with Signs and Miracles,
To prove their sacred Mission true:
These shew'd the Wonders of his Hand,
And spread their Tokens through the Land.
13 He call'd for Darkness, and it came,
Yet would they not his Voice obey;
He turn'd their Waters into Blood,
And did their Fish in Numbers slay:
A noisome Pest of Frogs was bred,
And sent to croak at Pharaoh's Bed.
14 He gave the Sign, and Swarms of Flies,
Came from above in cloudy Hosts;
While Earth's enlivin'd Dust below,
Bred hateful Lice through all their Coasts:
Hailstones he did for Rain command,
And Flames of Fire, to plague the Land.
33 He smote their Fig Trees and their Vines,
Their lofty Forst Trees destroy'd;
Locusts and Caterpillars join'd;
In dreadful Swarms, the Land annoy'd:
Their Numbers cover'd all the Ground,
And eat the Fruit and Herbage round.
16 He, in one Night their First-born smote,
The Chief of all their Pride he slew;
But from their Land, enrich'd with Spoils,
In Health and Strength his Servants drew:
Egypt was glad when they remov'd,
Who had to them so fatal prov'd.
17 GOD spread a Cloud to cover them,
A Fire at Night was their sure Guide;
He gave them Quails at their Desire,
And them with heav'nly Bread supply'd:
He smote the Rock, and from the Wound,
The gushing Waters flow'd around.
18 For he his Promise kept in Mind,
And brought his People forth with Joy;
Gave them the Fruit of others Toil,
And did their Heathen Foes destroy:
That they his Statutes may obey,
And to his Laws due Rev'rence pay. Topics: Thanksgivings For Delerances and Wonders, General Used With Tune: [O render Thanks, and bless the Lord]

Sing Praise to God, Our Highest Good
Author: Johann J. Schütz; Madeleine Forell Marshall Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 105 Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God, our highest good,

God give us health, life, livelihood,

Sing Praise to God, Our Highest Good
Sing to the Lord; invoke his sacred name
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 105 Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord; invoke his sacred name;
His glorious acts to all the earth proclaim;
2 Our dread Jehovah claims your noblest lays;
Loud let th' exulting tribes chant forth his praise.
3 Let his great name employ the grateful voice;
Let all, that love his name, sincere rejoice:
4 With firmest heart on his blest pow'r rely;
His presence ask--'twill ev'ry want supply.
5 Reflect the works of his almighty hand,
Th' observance that his sacred laws command.
6 To you, blest Abr'ham's race, I speak alone,
To you whom he hath deign'd to call his own.
7 He is our king, e'en he th' almighty God;
Who to th' astonish'd earth his truth hath shew'd,
8 Firm to his covenant he 'as long remain'd,
Which for a thousand ages he ordain'd;
9 Which he with Abr'ham made in days of yore,
To which with Isaac solemnly he swore,
10 Which Jacob heard confirm'd, and which shall bless,
Inviolate, to endless time, his race.
11 "To thee (he said) rich Canaan's lands I'll give,
"Thou in her fertile plains shalt ever live:"
12 E'en then, when yet they were but strangers there,
And weak their pow'r, and few their numbers were;
13 When they, as heav'n ordain'd, poor wand'rers, rov'd
From place to place, and had no fix'd abode.
14 Yet them in peace his goodness still maintain'd;
The cruel rage of threat'ning kings restrain'd,
15 And bad them not those favour'd tribes oppress,
Whom with peculiar love he chose to bless.
16 When a dire famine sore distrest the land,
And scarce th' enfeebled nations life sustain'd,
17 Fair Rachel's favour'd son he sent, a slave,
To those glad lands, Nile's fertile waters lave.
18 There long in prison, long in chains, he lay,
'Til heav'n it's mercy to him did display,
19 Dreams to interpret, gave the wond'rous pow'r,
And taught, the scheme of providence t' explore.
20 This heard the king; he set the pris'ner free,
'Twas Egypt's monarch gave him liberty.
21 He made a bond-slave ruler o'er his land;
O'er all the palace his was the command;
22 That next in honour to his prince he stood,
While all the nobles with obeisance bow'd.
23 'Twas then that Israel into Egypt came,
And sojourn'd in the fruitful plains of Ham:
24 Our God his people 'bove the natives blest;
That soon in pow'r, in numbers, they increas'd.
25 This saw th' Egyptian monarch with regret,
And strait fell on the favour'd tribes his hate:
26 Long suffer'd they, when their almighty friend
Did Humble Moses to their succour send.
27 Aaron and he by their dread wonders prove,
That they had their commission from above.
28 Nature obeys, at once, their great command;
A gloomy darkness shrouds th' astonish'd land;
29 Their streams polluted, flow with fetid gore,
And all their fish lie dead upon the shore:
30 Not now the soil it's glad'ning produce yields,
But frogs infest their palaces and fields.
31 In swarms unnumber'd rang'd the noisome flies,
And all their coasts are cover'd o'er with lice.
32 The kindly rains enrich their glebe no more,
But storms of hail and flame around them pour.
33 Their vines no more the chearful juice supply,
And trees, fruits, flow'rs, in one wild ruin lie.
34 In flights the locusts and the beetles come,
And, what the hail hath left them, they consume;
So that not food for sustenance remains,
But one wild desolation fills the plains.
36 Nay; more t' enhance their fatal miseries,
The favour'd son, the dear-lov'd first born, dies.
37 At last the humbled tyrant lets us go;
A joy sincere his ruin'd people shew;
While we depart, of countless wealth possest,
With nervous strength, with sprightly vigour, blest.
39 By a dun cloud he leads us in the day;
By night a glitt'ring shine directs our way:
40 We ask, and strait we're fed with bread from heav'n;
We ask, and birds of richest taste are giv'n.
41 The rock he smote, and strait the waters came,
Free as a riv'let, gush'd the slaking stream.
42 For he his faithful Abr'ham not forgot,
Nor wou'd he bring his promises to nought;
43 His gracious goodness pointed them the road;
With joy they follow'd their directing God.
44 The heathen's lands he gave them to possess;
And all the produce of their toils in peace;
45 That they his holy statutes might obey,
And never from his dread commandments stray.
Sing to the Lord; invoke his sacred name
