Praise to God for the return of Peace

Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: Authority from God; Authority from God First Line: To thee, most high and holy God Lyrics: 1 To thee, most high and holy God, To thee our thankful hearts we raise; Thy works declare thy name abroad, Thy wondrous works demand our praise. 2 To slavery doom'd, thy chosen sons Beheld their foes triumphant rise; And sore opprest by earthly thrones, They sought the sovereign of the skies. 3 'Twas then, great God, with equal power, Arose thy vengeance and thy grace, To scourge their legions from the shore, And save the remnant of thy race. 4 Thy hand that form'd the restless main, And rear'd the mountain's awful head, Bade raging seas their course restrain, And desert wilds receive their dead. 5 Such wonders never come by chance, Nor van the winds such blessings blow; 'Tis God the Judge doth one advance, 'Tis God that lays another low. 6 Let haughty tyrants sink their pride, Nor lift so high their scornful head; But lay their impious thoughts aside, And own the empire God hath made. Scripture: Psalm 75

Among th' Assemblies of the Great

Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Authority from God Lyrics: 1 Among th' Assemblies of the Great A greater Ruler takes his Seat; The GOD of Heav'n, as Judge surveys Those Gods on Earth, and all their Ways. 2 Why will ye, then, frame wicked Laws? Or why support th' unrighteous Cause? When will ye once defend the Poor, That Sinners vex the Saints no more? 3 They know not, Lord, nor will they know; Dark are the Ways in which they go; Their Name of earthly Gods is vain, For they shall fall and die like Men. 3 Arise, O Lord, and let thy Son Possess his universal Throne, And rule the Nations with his Rod; He is our Judge, and he our GOD. Scripture: Psalm 82

To Thee, most Holy, and most High

Appears in 20 hymnals Topics: Authority from God Lyrics: 1 To Thee, most Holy, and most High, To Thee, we bring our thankful Praise; Thy Works declare thy Name is nigh, Thy Works of Wonder and of Grace. 2 Britain was doom'd to be a Slave, Her Frame dissolv'd; her Fears were great; When GOD a new Supporter gave, To bear the Pillars of the State. 3 He from thy Hand receiv'd his Crown, And swore to rule by wholesome Laws? His Foot shall tread th' Oppressor down, His Arm defend the righteous Cause. 4 Let haughty Sinners sink their Pride, Nor lift so high their scornful Head; But lay their foolish Thoughts aside, And own the King that GOD hath made. 5 Such Honours never come by Chance, Nor do the Winds Promotion blow; 'Tis GOD the Judge doth one advance, 'Tis GOD that lays another low. 6 No vain Pretence to Royal Birth Shall fix a Tyrant on the Throne: GOD, the great Sov'reign of the Earth, Will rise, and make his Justice known. 7 [His Hand holds out the dreadful Cup Of Vengeance, mix'd with various Plagues, To make the Wicked drink 'em up, Wring out, and taste the bitter Dregs. 8 Now shall the Lord exalt the Just, And while he tramples on the Proud, And lays their Glory in the Dust, My Lips shall sing his Praise aloud.] Scripture: Psalm 75
