The Greatness of God in Nature
Appears in 7 hymnals Topics: Providence of God Over His Creatures First Line: My soul, bless the Lord! Lyrics: 1 My soul, bless the Lord! the Lord is most great,
With glory arrayed, majestic His state;
The light is His garment, the skies are His shade,
And over the waters His courts He has laid.
2 He rides on the clouds, the wings of the storm,
The lightning and wind His mission perform;
The earth He has founded her station to keep,
And wrapped as a vesture about her the deep.
3 O'er mountain and plain the dark waters raged;
His voice they obeyed, the floods were assuaged;
Uplifting the mountains He ordered a bound,
Forbidding the waters to cover the ground.
4 He causes the springs of water to flow
In streams 'mid the hills and valleys below;
Beside them with singing the birds greet the day.
And there the beast gather their thirst to allay.

Emancipation from Spiritual Slavery
Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Providence of God Over His Creatures First Line: Rebels, who had dared to show Lyrics: 1 Rebels, who had dared to show
Proud contempt of God Most High,
Bound in iron and in woe,
Shades of death and darkness night,
Humbled low with toil and pain,
Fell, and looked for help in vain.
2 To Jehovah then they cried
In their trouble, and He saved,
Threw the prison open wide
Where they lay to death enslaved,
Bade the gloomy shadows flee,
Broke their bonds and set them free.
3 Sons of men, awake to praise
God the Lord Who reigns above,
Gracious in His works and ways,
Wondrous in redeeming love;
Iron bars He breaks like clay,
And the brazen gates give way.
Scripture: Psalm 107 Used With Tune: DIX

The Glories of my Maker God
Appears in 23 hymnals Topics: Creatures praise the Lord Lyrics: 1 The Glories of my Maker God
My joyful Voice shall sing,
And call the Nations to adore
Their Former and their King.
2 'Twas his Right Hand that shap'd our Clay,
And wrought this human Frame;
But from his own immediate Breath
Our nobler Spirits came.
3 We bring our mortal Pow'rs to God,
And worship with our Tongues;
We claim some Kindred with the Skies,
And join th' Angelic songs.
4 Let grov'ling Beasts of ev'ry Shape,
And Fowls of ev'ry Wing,
And Rocks, and Trees, and Fires, and seas,
Their various Tribute bring.
5 Ye Planets to his Honour shine,
And Wheels of Mature roll,
Praise him in your unwearied Course
Around the steady Pole.
6 The Brightness of our Maker's Name
The wide Creation fills,
And his unbounded Grandeur flies
Beyond the heav'nly Hills.

To tell His praise abroad.

He binds their wounds and gently leads,
The brokenhearted ones.

And counts the stars of night;
His wisdom is unsearchable,
And wondrous is His might.
The Lord upholds the poor and meek,
He brings the wicked low;
Sing praise to Him and give Him thanks
And all His goodness show.

In those that trust His love.

Trust and Praise
Appears in 22 hymnals Topics: Providence of God Over His Creatures First Line: Hallelujah, praise Jehovah Lyrics: 1 Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
Of my God through all my days.
2 Put no confidence in princes,
Nor for help on man depend;
He shall die, to dust returning,
And his purposes shall end.
3 Happy is the man that chooses
Israel's God to be his aid;
He is blest whose hope of blessing
On the Lord his God is stayed.
4 'n and earth the Lord created,
Seas and all that they contain;
He delivers from oppression,
Righteousness He will maintain.
5 Food He daily gives the hungry,
Sets the mourning pris'ner free,
Raises those bowed down with anguish,
Makes the sightless eyes to see.
6 Well Jehovah loves the righteous,
And the stranger He befriends,
Helps the fatherless and widow,
Judgment on the wicked sends.

Trust and Praise
Praise ye the Lord, my heart shall join
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 118 hymnals Topics: Creatures no trust in them; Trust in the creatures vain Lyrics:
Praise ye the Lord, my heart shall join
In work so pleasant, so divine;
Now, while the flesh is mine abode,
And when my soul ascends to God.
Praise shall employ my noblest powers,
While immortality endures;
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last.
Why should I make a man my trust?
Princes must die and turn to dust;
Their breath departs, their pomp, and power,
And thoughts, all vanish in an hour.
Happy the man whose hopes rely
On Isr'el's God; he made the sky,
And earth, and seas, with all their train,
And none shall find his promise vain.
His truth for ever stands secure;
He saves th' oppressed, he feeds the poor;
He sends the lab'ring conscience peace,
And grants the pris'ner sweet release.
The Lord hath eyes to give the blind;
The Lord supports the sinking mind;
He helps the stranger in distress,
The widow and the fatherless.
He loves his saints, he knows them well,
But turns the wicked down to hell:
Thy God, O Zion! ever reigns;
Praise him in everlasting strains.
Scripture: Psalm 146
Praise ye the Lord, my heart shall join
