Wilt thou, O man, live happily

Meter: 8.8.8.7.4 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Catechism Ten Commandments Lyrics: 1 WILT thou, O man, live happily, And dwell with God eternally? The ten commandments keep, for thus Our God Himself biddeth us. Have mercy, Lord! 2 I am thy Lord and God! take heed No other god doth thee mislead; Thy heart shall trust alone in me, Thou shalt my own kingdom be. Have mercy, Lord! 3 Honor my name in word and deed, And call on me in time of need; Hallow the Sabbath, that I may Work in thy heart on that day. Have mercy, Lord! 4 Obedient always, next to me, To father and to mother be; Kill no man, but to wrath be slow; Be true to thy marriage vow. Have mercy, Lord! 5 Steal not, nor do thy neighbor wrong By bearing witness with false tongue; Thy neighbor's wife desire thou not, Nor grudge him aught that he hath got. Have mercy, Lord!

It Is Good to Sing Your Praises

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 4th Commandment (remember the Sabbath) Lyrics: 1 It is good to sing your praises and to thank you, O Most High, showing forth your loving kindness when the morning lights the sky. It is good when night is falling of your faithfulness to tell, while with sweet, melodious praises songs of adoration swell. 2 You have filled my heart with gladness through the works your hands have wrought; you have made my life victorious; great your works and deep your thought. You, O Lord, on high exalted, reign forevermore in might; all your enemies shall perish, sin be banished from your sight. 3 But the good shall live before you, planted in your dwelling place, fruited trees and ever verdant, nourished by your boundless grace. In his goodness to the righteous God his righteousness displays; God, my rock, my strength and refuge, just and true are all your ways.

Come with All Joy to Sing to God

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 2nd Commandment (do not make graven emages) Lyrics: 1 Come with all joy to sing to God our saving rock, the living Lord; in glad thanksgiving seek his face with songs of victory and grace. 2 In holiness and light arrayed above all gods that we have made, he is the one almighty King, and his the glory that we sing. 3 The earth is his from east to west, from ocean floor to mountain crest; he made the sea and formed the lands, he shaped the islands by his hands. 4 Come near to worship! Come with faith, bow down to God who gives us breath: God is our shepherd, God alone; we are his people, all his own. 5 But if you hear his voice today do not reject what he will say; when Israel wandered from God's path they suffered forty years of wrath. 6 That generation went astray; they did not want to know his way: they put their Saviour to the test, and saw his power, but lost their rest.

In love and truth you do fulfill the counsels of your sovereign will; though nations fail your power to own, yet you still reign, and you alone. 2 The idol gods of heathen lands are but the work of human hands; they cannot see, they cannot speak, their ears are deaf, their hands are weak; like them shall be all those who hold to gods of silver and of gold. 3 So let us trust in God alone, the Lord, whose grace and power are known; and our complete allegiance yield to God who is our help and shield. Join, heaven and earth, in sweet accord; sing "Hallelujah, praise the Lord!" Scripture: Psalm 115 Used With Tune: VATER UNSER Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.
