Praise thou the Lord, the omnipotent Monarch of Glory

Author: Joachim Neander; J. H. Good Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Praise; Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Praise Lyrics: 1 Praise thou the Lord, the omnipotent Monarch of Glory; Join in, my soul, with the heavenly choir in their story; Come and partake; Psalt'ry and harp also wake: Sing the Creator's great glory! 2 Praise thou the Lord, who e'er ruleth and guideth all surely; Over life's pathway, so fearful, He leads thee securely; Ever He sends Mercies and blessings and friends; Then from thy heart thank Him truly. 3 Praise thou the Lord, who hath fearfully, wondrously made thee, Health has vouchsafed, and when heedlessly falling hath stayed thee; Fainting and weak, When not a word thou couldst speak, Wings of His mercy did shade thee. 4 Praise thou the Lord, who thy life hath so visibly guided, Streams of free grace, in His Son, for thy sin hath provided; Plain to thy view, God, the Almighty and True, Ne'er from His child is divided. 5 Praise thou the Lord, and forget all His benefits never; Swell the loud chorus, ye chosen, till broad as a river Upward it stream; Soul, O forget not this theme: Praise Him, O praise Him forever. Used With Tune: LAUDATE DOMINUM (Lobe den Herren, den mächtigen König)

When all Thy mercies, O my God

Author: Joseph Addison Appears in 1,025 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: Praise; Christian Life and Hope The Walk of Godliness: 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 to 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 Ten thousand, thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart That tastes those gifts with joy. 5 Through every period of my life Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds The glorious theme renew. 6 Through all eternity, to Thee A grateful song I'll raise; But oh! eternity's too short To utter all Thy praise.

Why should sorrow ever grieve me?

Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Why should sorrow ever grieve me? Christ is near, What can here E’er of Him deprive me? Who can rob me of my heaven That God’s Son, As mine own, To my faith hath given? 2 God oft gives me days of gladness, Shall I grieve If He give Seasons too of sadness? God is good, and tempers ever Every hurt; Me desert Wholly can He never. 3 What is all this life possesseth? But a hand Full of sand That the heart distresseth. Noble gifts that tire me never, Christ so free There gives me To enjoy forever. 4 Shepherd! Lord! joy's fountain ever, Thou art mine, I am Thine, No one can us sever. I am thine because Thou gavest Life and blood For my good, By Thy death me savest. 5 Thou art mine, I love and own Thee, Ne'er shall I, Light of joy, From my heart dethrone Thee. Let me, let me Soon behold Thee Face to face; Thy embrace, May it soon enfold me!

Mourn not ye, whose child hath found

Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: Christian Life and Hope Lyrics: 1 Mourn not ye whose child hath found Purer skies and holier ground; Flowers of bright and pleasant hue, Free from thorns and fresh with dew. 2 Mourn not ye whose child hath fled From this region of the dead, To yon winged angel-band, To a better, fairer land. 3 Knowledge in that clime doth grow Free from weeds of toil and wo, Joys which mortals may not share; Mourn ye not, your child is there.

And let this feeble body fail

Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 357 hymnals Topics: Christians their life and experience; Fruits of the Spirit Hope; Happiness of hope; Holy Spirit Fruits of; Hope; Resignation Lyrics: 1 And let this feeble body fail, And let it faint and die; My soul shall quit the mournful vale And soar to worlds on high: Shall join the disembodied saints, And find its long-sought rest, That only bliss for which it pants In the Redeemer's breast. 2 In hope of that immortal crown, I now the cross sustain, And gladly wonder up and down, And smile at toil and pain. I suffer on my threescore years Till my deliverer come, And wipe away his servant's tears, And take his exile home. 3 Oh, what hath Jesus bought for me! Before my ravish'd eyes Rivers of life divine I see, And trees of paradise! I see a world of spirits bright Who taste the pleasures there! They all are robed in spotless white, And conq'ring palms they bear. 4 Oh, what are all my suff'rings here If, Lord, Thou count me meet, With that enraptured host t'appear, And worship at Thy feet! Give joy or grief, give ease or pain, Take life or friends away: But let me find them all again In that eternal day.
