Psalm 95

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 95 hymnals Topics: Psalm before sermon First Line: Come, let our voices join to raise Lyrics: Come, let our voices join to raise A sacred song of solemn praise; God is a sovereign King, rehearse His honors in exalted verse. Come, let our souls address the Lord, Who framed our natures with his word; He is our Shepherd; we the sheep His mercy chose, his pastures keep. Come, let us hear his voice today, The counsels of his love obey; Nor let our hardened hearts renew The sins and plagues that Isr'el knew. Isr'el, that saw his works of grace, Yet tempt their Maker to his face; A faithless, unbelieving brood, That tired the patience of their God. Thus saith the Lord: "How false they prove Forget my power, abuse my love! Since they despise my rest, I swear, Their feet shall never enter there." [Look back, my soul, with holy dread, And view those ancient rebels dead; Attend the offered grace today, Nor lose the blessing by delay. Seize the kind promise while it waits, And march to Zion's heav'nly gates: Believe, and take the promised rest; Obey, and be for ever blest.] Scripture: Psalm 95:1-3

A Psalm before Prayer

Appears in 144 hymnals Topics: Psalm before sermon; Psalm before sermon First Line: Sing to the Lord, Jehovah's name Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord, Jehovah's name, And in his strength rejoice; When his salvation is our theme, Exalted be our voice. 2 With thanks approach his awful sight, And psalms of honour sing; The Lord's a God of boundless might, The whole creation's King. 3 Let princes hear, let angels know, How mean their natures seem, Those gods on high, and gods below, When once compar'd with him. 4 Earth, with its caverns dark and deep, Lies in his spacious hand; He fix'd the seas what bounds to keep, And where the hills must stand. 5 Come, and with humble souls adore, Come, kneel before his face; Oh may the creatures of his power Be children of his grace! 6 Now is the time, he bends his ear, And waits for your request; Come, lest he rouze his wrath and swear, "Ye shall not see my rest." Scripture: Psalm 95

Scripture: Psalm 95
