Great God, what do I see and hear
Sing praise to God who reigns above
Author: Johann Jakob Schütz (1640-1690); Frances Elizabeth Cox (1812-1897) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 199 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Sing praise to God who reigns above,
the God of all creation,
the God of power, the God of love,
the God of our salvation;
with healing balm my soul he fills,
and every faithless murmur stills:
to God all praise and glory!
2 The Lord is never far away,
but, through all grief distressing,
an ever-present help and stay,
our peace and joy and blessing;
as with a mother's tender hand
he leads his own, his chosen band:
to God all praise and glory!
3 Thus all my gladsome way along
I sing aloud thy praises,
that all may hear the grateful song
my voice unwearied raises;
be joyful in the Lord, my heart;
both soul and body bear your part:
to God all praise and glory! Topics: God Presence of; Music and Song; Praise Scripture: Psalm 103 Used With Tune: PALACE GREEN

The Lord ascendeth up on high
Author: Arthur Russell, 1806-1874 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Appears in 38 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord ascendeth up on high,
loud anthems round him swelling;
the Lord hath triumphed gloriously,
in power and might excelling:
hell and the grave are captive led;
lo, he returns, our glorious Head,
to his eternal dwelling.
2 The heavens with joy receive their Lord;
O day of exultation!
By saints, by angel-hosts, adored
for his so great salvation:
O earth, adore thy glorious King,
his rising, his ascension sing
With grateful adoration.
3 By saints in earth and saints in heaven,
with songs for ever blended,
all praise to Christ our King be given,
who hath to heaven ascended:
To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
the God of heaven's resplendent host,
in bright array extended. Topics: Ascension; Easter VII Year B; Proper 25 Year B Scripture: Colossians 2:15 Used With Tune: PALACE GREEN
The Lord ascendeth up on high
