All People That on Earth Do Dwell

Author: William Kethe Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #1 (1990) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: God Goodness of Lyrics: 1 All people that on earth do dwell, sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; him serve with fear, his praise forth tell, come ye before him and rejoice. 2 The Lord ye know is God indeed; without our aid he did us make; we are his folk, he doth us feed, and for his sheep he doth us take. 3 O enter then his gates with praise, approach with joy his courts unto; praise, laud, and bless his name always, for it is seemly so to do. 4 For why? The Lord our God is good, his mercy is forever sure; his truth at all times firmly stood, and shall from age to age endure. Scripture: Psalm 100 Languages: English Tune Title: OLD HUNDREDTH

GOD's Sovereignty and Goodness; and Man's Dominion over the Creatures

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #13 (1740) Topics: Goodness of God First Line: O Lord, our heavenly King Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our heavenly King, Thy Name is all Divine; Thy Glories round the Earth are spread, And o'er the Heav'ns they shine. 2 When to thy Works on high I raise my wond'ring Eyes, And see the Moon complete in Light, Adorn the darksome Skies 3 When I survey the Stars, And all their shining Forms, Lord, what is Man, that worthless Thing, Akin to Dust and Worms? 4 Lord, what is worthless Man, That thou shouldst love him so? Next to thine Angels is he plac'd, And lord of all below. 5 Thine Honours crown his Head, While Beasts, like Slaves, obey, And Birds that cut the Air with Wings, And Fish that cleave the sea. 6 How rich thy Bounties are! And wond'rous are thy Ways Of Dust and Worms thy Pow'r can frame A Monument of Praise. 7 [Out of the Mouths of Babes And Sucklings, thou canst draw Surprizing Honours to thy Name, And strike the World with Awe. 8 O Lord, our heav'nly King, Thy Name is all Divine; Thy Glories round the Earth are spread, And o'er the Heav'ns they shine.] Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English

Come, thou Fount of ev'ry blessing

Hymnal: Book of Worship (Rev. ed.) #16 (1870) Topics: Goodness of God praise for Lyrics: 1 Come, thou Fount of ev'ry blessing, Tune my heart to sing Thy grace; Streams of mercy, never ceasing, Call for songs of loudest praise: Teach me some melodious measure, Sung by flaming tongues above; Fill my soul with sacred pleasure, While I sing redeeming love. 2 Here I find my mine Ebenezer, Hither by Thy help I've 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 save my soul from danger, Interposed His precious blood. 3 Oh! to grace how great a debtor Daily I'm constrain'd to be! Let that 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. Languages: English

My soul, repeat his praise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #30 (1835) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Goodness of God Lyrics: My soul, repeat his praise, Whose mercies are so great, Whose anger is so slow to rise, So ready to abate. God will not always chide; And when his strokes are felt, His strokes are fewer than our crimes, And lighter than our guilt. High as the heav'ns are raised Above the ground we tread, So far the riches of his grace Our highest thoughts exceed. His power subdues our sins, And his forgiving love Far as the east is from the west Doth all our guilt remove. The pity of the Lord, To those that fear his name, Is such as tender parents feel; He knows our feeble frame. He knows we are but dust, Scattered with every breath; His anger, like a rising wind, Can send us swift to death. Our days are as the grass, Or like the morning flower; If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field It withers in an hour. But thy compassions, Lord, To endless years endure; And children's children ever find Thy words of promise sure. Scripture: Psalm 103:8-18 Languages: English

Psalm 103 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #31 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Goodness of God First Line: The Lord, how wondrous are his ways! Lyrics: The Lord, how wondrous are his ways! How firm his truth! how large his grace! He takes his mercy for his throne, And thence he makes his glories known. Not half so high his power hath spread The starry heav'ns above our head, As his rich love exceeds our praise, Exceeds the highest hopes we raise. Not half so far hath nature placed The rising morning from the west, As his forgiving grace removes The daily guilt of those he loves. How slowly doth his wrath arise! On swifter wings salvation flies; And if he lets his anger burn, How soon his frowns to pity turn Amidst his wrath compassion shines; His strokes are lighter than our sins And while his rod corrects his saints, His ear indulges their complaints. So fathers their young sons chastise With gentle hand and melting eyes; The children weep beneath the smart, And move the pity of their heart. The mighty God, the wise and just, Knows that our frame is feeble dust; And will no heavy loads impose Beyond the strength that he bestows. He knows how soon our nature dies, Blasted by every wind that flies; Like grass we spring, and die as soon, Or morning flowers that fade at noon. But his eternal love is sure To all the saints, and shall endure; From age to age his truth shall reign, Nor children's children hope in vain. Scripture: Psalm 103:8-18 Languages: English
