Gladly we kneel in obedience before you; great is the one whom we worship this day! 4 Now let us listen, for you speak among us; open our hearts to receive what you say.

Thou, O Lord, Art God Alone

Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: Creation Lyrics: 1 Thou, O Lord, art God alone; Everlasting is Thy throne; Through the ages men shall sing Praise to heaven's eternal King. Thou, enthroned above the skies, Wilt for Zion's help arise; Let Thy grace to her appear, For the promised time is near. 2 If with love compassionate We, Thy servants, mourn her state, Wilt not Thou, O gracious Lord, Help in Zion's need afford? Lord, Thy glory shall appear, Kings and nations then shall fear; And Thy Name shall be adored When Thy Zion is restored. 3 This all ages shall record For the glory of the Lord; Thou dost hear the humble prayer, For the helpless Thou dost care. Thou eternal art, and great, Heaven and earth Thou didst create, Heaven and earth shall pass away, Changeless Thou shalt live for aye. 4 As one lays a garment by, Thou wilt change the starry sky Like a vesture worn and old; But Thy years shall ne'er be told. Thou wilt make Thy servants' race Ever live before Thy face, And forever at Thy side Children's children shall abide. Scripture: Psalm 102 Used With Tune: ST. GEORGE'S, WINDSOR (ELVEY)

The LORD God from His Throne on High

Author: Marie J. Post Meter: 8.8.6.8.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: The Creation Lyrics: 1 The LORD God from his throne on high looks down with clear and searching eye on all that dwell below; and he that fashioned heart and mind looks ever down on human-kind, their hearts and minds to know. Not human strength or mighty hosts, not charging steeds or warlike boasts can save from overthrow; but God will save from death and shame all those who fear and trust his name, and they no want shall know. 2 God's eye is on all those who fear; to those who hope, the LORD is near, according to his Word. Death cannot touch those in his hand, nor famine conquer in the land; we wait upon the LORD. In God our hope is firm and sure, who makes the joyful heart secure, our helper strong and true. Our trust is in your holy name; your mercy, LORD, in faith we claim, as we have hoped in you. Scripture: Psalm 33 Used With Tune: GENEVAN 68 Text Sources: Psalter Hymnal, 1934 (St. 1)
