May ev'ry tongue Be tuned to praise And join to raise A grateful song! 4 Earth, hear your Maker's voice; Your great Redeemer own. Believe, obey, rejoice, And worship him alone. Cast down your pride! Your sin deplore And bow before The Crucified! 5 And when in pow'r he comes, Oh, may our native land From all its rending tombs Send forth a glorious band, A countless throng, And, joyful, sing To heav'n's high King Salvation's song!

Join all the glorious names

Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Meter: 6.6.6.6.4.4.4.4 Appears in 344 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names of wisdom, love, and power, that ever mortals knew, that angels ever bore: all are too mean to speak his worth, too mean to set my Saviour forth. 2 But O what gentle terms, what condescending ways doth our Redeemer use to teach his heavenly grace! Mine eyes with joy and wonder see what forms of love he bears for me. 3 Great Prophet of my God, my tongue would bless thy name; by thee the joyful news of our salvation came: the joyful news of sins forgiven, of hell subdued and peace with heaven. 4 Jesus my great High-Priest offered his blood and died; my guilty conscience seeks no sacrifice beside: his powerful blood did once atone, and now it pleads before the throne. 5 My dear almighty Lord, my Conqueror and my King, thy sceptre and thy sword, thy reign of grace, I sing; thine is the power: behold I sit in willing bonds before thy feet. 6 Now let my soul arise, and tread the tempter down; my Captain leads me forth to conquest and a crown. A feeble saint shall win the day, though death and hell obstruct the way. 7 Should all the hosts of death, and powers of hell unknown, put their most dreadful forms of rage and mischief on, I shall be safe, for Christ displays superior power, and guardian grace.
