Appears in 86 hymnals Topics: Christ his perennial Glories and Government; Governance of Christ; Christ his perennial Glories and Government; Governance of Christ First Line: The King of saints, how fair his face Lyrics: 1 The King of saints, how fair his face,
Adorn'd with majesty and grace!
He comes with blessings from above,
And wins the nations to his love.
2 At his right hand our eyes behold
The queen array'd in purest gold;
The world admires her heavenly dress;
Her robe of joy and righteousness.
3 He forms her beauties like his own,
He calls and seats her near his throne:
Fair stranger, let thine heart forget
The idols of thy native state.
4 So shall the king the more rejoice,
In thee the favourite of his choice;
Let him be lov'd, and yet ador'd,
For he's thy Maker and thy Lord.
5 Oh happy hour, when thou shalt rise
To his fair palace in the skies,
And all thy sons (a numerous train)
Each like a prince in glory reign.
6 Let endless honours crown his head;
Let every age his praises spread;
While we with cheerful songs approve
The condescention of his love. Scripture: Psalm 45

Psalm 101
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 48 hymnals Topics: Family government First Line: Mercy and judgment are my song Lyrics:
Mercy and judgment are my song;
And since they both to thee belong,
My gracious God, my righteous King,
To thee my songs and vows I bring.
If I am raised to bear the sword,
I'll take my counsels from thy word;
Thy justice and thy heav'nly grace
Shall be the pattern of my ways.
Let wisdom all my actions guide,
And let my God with me reside;
No wicked thing shall dwell with me
Which may provoke thy jealousy.
No sons of slander, rage, and strife
Shall be companions of my life;
The haughty look, the heart of pride,
Within my doors shall ne'er abide.
[I'll search the land, and raise the just
To posts of honor, wealth, and trust;
The men that work thy holy will
Shall be my friends and fav'rites still.]
In vain shall sinners hope to rise
By flatt'ring or malicious lies;
And while the innocent I guard,
The bold offender sha'n't be spared.
The impious crew, that factious band,
Shall hide their heads or quit the land;
And all that break the public rest,
Where I have power, shall be suppressed.

God moves in a mysterious way
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,142 hymnals Topics: Divine Providence and Government Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way,
His wonders to perform:
He plants his footsteps in the sea,
and rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines,
Of never-failing skill,
He treasures up his bright designs,
And works his sov'reign will.
3 You fearful saints, fresh courage take;
The clouds ye so much dread
Are big with mercy, and shall break
In blessings on your head.
4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense,
But trust him for his grace;
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face.
5 His purposes will ripen fast,
Unfolding ev'ry hour.
The bud may have a bitter taste,
But sweet will be the flow'r.
6 Blind unbelief is sure to err,
And scan his work in vain.
God is his own interpreter,
And he will make it plain.
God moves in a mysterious way
God's Care of the Saints; or, Deliverance by Prayer
Appears in 88 hymnals Topics: Tongues governed; Tongues governed First Line: Lord, I will bless thee all my days Lyrics: 1 Lord, I will bless you all my days,
Thy praise shall dwell upon my tongue;
My soul shall glory in thy grace,
While saints rejoice to hear the song.
2 Come, magnify the Lord with me,
Let every heart exalt his name;
I sought th' eternal God, and he
Has not expos'd my hope to shame.
3 I told him all my secret grief,
My secret groaning reach'd his ears;
He gave my inward pains relief,
And calm'd the tumult of my fears.
4 To him the poor lift their eyes,
With heavenly joy their faces shine,
A beam of mercy from the skies
Fills them with light and joy divine.
5 His holy angels pitch their tents
Around the men that serve the Lord;
Oh fear and love him, all his saints,
Taste of his grace, and trust his word.
6 The wild young lions, pinch'd with pain
And hunger, roar through all the wood;
But none shall seek the Lord in vain,
Nor want supplies of real good.
Scripture: Psalm 34

Thy beauties are divine;
Thy lips with blessings overflow,
And every grace is thine.
2 Now make thy glory known,
Gird on thy dreadful sword,
And ride in majesty to spread
The conquests of thy word.
3 Strike through thy stubborn foes,
Or make their hearts obey,
While justice, meekness, grace and truth,
Attend thy glorious way.
4 Thy laws, O God, are right,
Thy throne shall ever stand;
And thy victorious gospel prove
A sceptre in thy hand.
5 [Thy Father and thy God
Hath without measure shed
His spirit like a grateful oil
T' anoint thy sacred head.]
6 [Behold, at thy right hand
The Gentile church is seen,
A beauteous bride in rich attire,
And princes guard the Queen.
7 Fair bride, receive his love,
Forget thy father's house;
Forsake thy gods, thy idol gods,
And pay thy Lord thy vows.
8 Oh let thy God and King
Thy sweetest thoughts employ;
Thy children shall his honour sing
And taste the heavenly joy. Scripture: Psalm 45

Psalm 101
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 45 hymnals Topics: Family government First Line: Of justice and of grace I sing Lyrics:
Of justice and of grace I sing,
And pay my God my vows;
Thy grace and justice, heav'nly King,
Teach me to rule my house.
Now to my tent, O God, repair,
And make thy servant wise;
I'll suffer nothing near me there
That shall offend thine eyes.
The man that doth his neighbor wrong
By falsehood or by force,
The scornful eye, the sland'rous tongue
I'll thrust them from my doors.
I'll seek the faithful and the just,
And will their help enjoy;
These are the friends that I shall trust,
The servants I'll employ.
The wretch that deals in sly deceit
I'll not endure a night:
The liar's tongue I ever hate,
And banish from my sight.
I'll purge my family around,
And make the wicked flee;
So shall my house be ever found
A dwelling fit for thee.
Scripture: Psalm 101
