O Worship the King all glorious above

Author: Robert Grant Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1,150 hymnals Topics: God Love and Mercy; God the Father God in Nature; God the Father His Majesty and Power; Worship; liturgical Opening Hymns Lyrics: 1 O worship the King all-glorious above, O gratefully sing his power and his love: our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days, pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise. 2 O tell of his might and sing of his grace, whose robe is the light, whose canopy space. His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form, and dark is his path on the wings of the storm. 3 Your bountiful care, what tongue can recite? It breathes in the air, it shines in the light; it streams from the hills, it descends to the plain, and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain. 4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail, in you do we trust, nor find you to fail. Your mercies, how tender, how firm to the end, our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend! 5 O measureless Might, unchangeable Love, whom angels delight to worship above! Your ransomed creation, with glory ablaze, in true adoration shall sing to your praise! Psalter Hymnal, (Gray)

On this day, the first of days

Author: Henry W. Baker Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 84 hymnals Topics: Trinity Sunday Lyrics: On this day, the first of days, God the Father's Name we praise: Who, creation's Lord and Spring, Did the world from darkness bring. On this day the Eternal Son Over death his triumph won; On this day the Spirit came With his gifts of living flame. O that fervent love today May in every heart have sway, Teaching us to praise aright God, the Source of life and light. Father, who didst fashion me Image of thyself to be, Fill me with thy love divine, Let my every thought be thine. Holy Jesus, may I be Dead and buried here with thee; And, by love inflamed, arise Unto thee a sacrifice. Thou, who dost all gifts impart, Shine, blest Spirit, in my heart; Best of gifts thyself bestow; Make me burn thy love to know. God, the blessed Three in One, Dwell within my heart alone; Thou dost give thyself to me, May I give myself to thee. Amen. Used With Tune: LÜBECK Text Sources: Latin;
