Unnumbered blessings give my spirit voice; Tender to me the promise of his word; In God my Savior shall my heart rejoice. 2 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his name! Make known his might, the deeds his arm has done; His mercy sure, from age to age the same; His holy name: the Lord, the mighty One. 3 Tell out, my soul, the greatness of his might! Powers and dominions lay their glory by. Proud hearts and stubborn wills are put to flight, The hungry fed, the humble lifted high. 4 Tell out, my soul, the glories of his word! Firm is his promise and his mercy sure. Tell out, my soul, the greatness of the Lord To children's children and for evermore! Scripture: Psalm 100 Used With Tune: WOODLANDS Text Sources: Magnificat

God's Conduct of Israel, and the Plagues of Egypt

Appears in 65 hymnals Topics: Covenant of Grace unchangeable; Covenant of Grace unchangeable First Line: Give thanks to God, invoke his name Lyrics: 1 Give thanks to God, invoke his name, And tell the world his grace; Sound through the earth his deeds of fame, That all may seek his face. 2 His covenant which he kept in mind For numerous ages past, To numerous ages yet behind In equal force shall last. 3 He swore to Abraham and his seed, And made the blessings sure: Gentiles the ancient promise read, And find his truth endure. 4 "Thy seed shall make all nations blest, (Said the Almighty voice) "And Canaan's land shall be their rest, "The type of heavenly joys. 5 [How large the grant! how rich the grace! To give them Canaan's land, When they were strangers in the place, A small and feeble band! 6 Like pilgrims through the countries round Securely they remov'd: And haughty kings that on them frown'd Severely he reprov'd. 7 "Touch mine anointed, and mine arm "Shall soon avenge the wrong: "The man that does my prophets harm Shall know their God is strong." 8 Then let the world forbear its rage, Nor put the church in fear; Israel must live through every age, And be th' Almighty's care. Pause I. 9 When Pharaoh dar'd to vex the saints, And thus provok'd their God, Moses was sent at their complaints, Arm'd with his dreadful rod. 10 He call'd for darkness: darkness came Like an o'erwhelming flood; He turn'd each lake and every stream To lakes and streams of blood. 11 He gave the sign, and noisome flies Through the whole country spread; And frogs in baleful armies rise About the monarch's bed. 12 Through fields and towns and palaces The tenfold vengeance flew; Locusts in swarms devour'd their trees And hail their cattle slew. 13 Then by an Angel's midnight stroke The flower of Egypt dy'd; The strength of every house was broke, Their glory and their pride. 14 Now let the world forbear its rage, Nor put the church in fear; Israel must live through every age, And be th' Almighty's care. Pause II. 15 Thus were the tribes from bondage freed, And left the hated ground; Rich with Egyptian spoils they fled, Nor was one feeble found. 16 The Lord himself chose out their way, And mark'd their journies right, Gave them a leading cloud by day, A fiery guide by night. 17 They thirst; and waters from the rock In rich abundance flow, And following still the course they took Ran all the desert through. 18 O wondrous stream! O blessed type Of ever-flowing grace! So Christ our rock maintains our life And aids our wandering race. 19 Thus guarded by th' Almighty hand, The chosen tribes possest Canaan the rich, the promis'd land, And there enjoy'd their rest. 20 Then let the world forbear its rage, The church renounce her fear; Israel must live through every age, And be th' Almighty's care. Scripture: Psalm 105

Mark How the Lamb of God's Self-Offering

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 9.8.9.8 D Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Occasional Services Renewal of Baptismal Covenant Lyrics: 1 Mark how the Lamb of God’s self offering our human sinfulness takes on in the birth waters of the Jordan as Jesus is baptized by John. Hear how the voice from heaven thunders, “Lo, this is my beloved Son.” See how in dovelike form the Spirit descends on God’s anointed one. 2 From this assurance of God’s favor Jesus goes to the wilderness, there to endure a time of testing that readied him to teach and bless. So we, by water and the Spirit baptized into Christ’s ministry, are often led to paths of service through mazes of adversity. 3 Grant us, O God, the strength and courage to live the faith our lips declare; bless us in our baptismal calling; Christ’s royal priesthood help us share. Turn us from every false allegiance, that we may trust in Christ alone: raise up in us a chosen people transformed by love to be your own.
