Adoption

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 353 hymnals First Line: Behold! what wondrous grace Lyrics: 1 Behold! what wondrous grace The Father has bestowed On sinners of a mortal race, To call them sons of God! 2 Nor doth it yet appear How great we must be made; But when we see our Saviour here, We shall be like our Head. 3 A hope so much divine May trials well endure, May purge our souls from sense and sin, As Christ the Lord is pure. 4 If in my Father's love I share a filial part, Send down thy Spirit, like a dove, To rest upon my heart. 5 We would no longer lie Like slaves beneath the throne; Our faith shall Abba, Father! cry, And thou the kindred own.

Dear Lord and Master Mine

Author: Thomas H. Gill Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 57 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Dear Lord and Master mine, Thy happy servant see; My Conqueror, with what joy divine Thy captive clings to Thee! 2. I love Thy yoke to wear, To feel Thy gracious bands; Sweetly restrained by Thy care And happy in Thy hands. 3. No bar would I remove, No bond would I unbind; Within the limits of Thy love Full liberty I find. 4. I would not walk alone, But still with Thee, my God; At every step my blindness own, And ask of Thee the road. 5. The weakness I enjoy That casts me on Thy breast; The conflicts that Thy strength employ Make me divinely blest. 6. Dear Lord and Master mine, Still keep Thy servant true; My Guardian and my Guide divine Bring, bring Thy pilgrim through. 7. My Conqueror and my King, Still keep me in Thy train; And with Thee Thy glad captive bring When Thou return’st to reign. Used With Tune: FERGUSON

Great Is the Lord Our God

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 302 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Great is the Lord our God, And let His praise be great; He makes His churches His abode, His most delightful seat. 2. Those temples of His grace, How beautiful they stand! The honors of our native place, And bulwarks of our land. 3. In Sion God is known, A refuge in distress; How bright has His salvation shone Through all her palaces! 4. When kings against her joined, And saw the Lord was there, In wild confusion of the mind, They fled with hasty fear. 5. When navies tall and proud Attempt to spoil our peace, He sends His tempests roaring loud, And sinks them in the seas. 6. Oft have our fathers told, Our eyes have often seen, How well our God secures the fold Where His own sheep have been. 7. In every new distress We’ll to His house repair; We’ll think upon His wondrous grace, And seek deliverance there.
