Victory and Trimph over Temporal Enemies

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #32b (1740) Topics: Defense and Salvation in God First Line: We love Thee, Lord, and we adore Lyrics: 1 We love Thee, Lord, and we adore, Now is thine Arm reveal'd, Thou art our Strength, our heav'nly Tow'r, Our Bulwark, and our Shield. 2 We fly to our eternal Rock, And find a sure Defence; His holy Name our Lips invoke, And draw Salvation thence. 3 When GOD, our Leader, shines in Arms, What mortal Heart can bear The Thunder of his loud Alarms? The Lightning of his Spear? 4 He rides upon the winged Wind, And Angels in Array In Millions wait to know his Mind, And swift as Flames obey. 5 He speaks, and at his fierce Rebuke Whole Armies are dismay'd; His Voice, his Frown, his angry Look, Strikes all their Courage dead. 6 He forms our Gen'rals for the Field, With all their dreadful Skill; Gives them his awful Sword to wield, And makes their Hearts of Steel. 7 [He arms our Captains to the fight, (Tho' there his Name's forgot) He girded Cyrus with his Might, But Cyrus knew him not. 8 Oft has the Lord whole Nations blest, For his own Church's Sake; The Pow'rs that give his People Rest, Shall of his Care partake.] Scripture: Psalm 18 Languages: English

The Conqueror's Song

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #33 (1740) Topics: Defense and Salvation in God First Line: To thine Almighty Arm we owe Lyrics: 1 To thine Almighty Arm we owe The Triumph of the Day; Thy Terrors, Lord, confound the Foe, And melt their Strength away. 2 'Tis by thine Aid our Troops prevail, And break united Pow'rs, Or burn their boasted Fleets, or scale The proudest of their Tow'rs. 3 How have we chas'd them thro' the Field, And trod them to the Ground; While thy Salvation was our Shield, But they no Shelter found! 4 In vain to idol Saints they cry, And perish in their Blood; Where is a Rock so great, so high, So pow'rful as our GOD? 5 The Rock of Israel ever lives, His Name be ever blest; 'Tis his own Arm the Vict'ry gives, And gives his People Rest. 6 On Kings that reign as David did, He pours his Blessings down; Secures their Honours to their Seed, And well supports the Crown. Scripture: Psalm 18 Languages: English

And the whole Earth his Goodness proves, His Word the heav'nly Arches spread; How wide they shine from North to South! And by the Spirit of his Mouth Were all the starry Armies made. 3 He gathers the wide flowing Seas Those wat'ry Treasures know their Place In the vast Store-house of the Deep. He spake, and gave all Nature Birth; And Fires, and Seas, and Heav'n, and Earth, His everlasting Orders keep. 4 Let Mortals tremble and adore A GOD of such resistless Pow'r, Nor dare indulge their feeble Rage; Vain are your Thoughts, and weak your Hands; But his eternal Counsel stands, And rules the World from Age to Age.

O happy Nation, where the Lord

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P33d (1766) Topics: God our Defense and Salvation Lyrics: 1 O happy Nation, where the Lord Reveals the Treasure of his Word, And builds his Church, his earthly Throne!
