O give Thanks unto the LORD

Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 O give Thanks unto the LORD, To his Name due Praise afford! For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 2 To the LORD your Homage pay, Whom all other GODS obey; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 3 Who the Heav'ns in Wisdom made, And the Earth on Waters laid, For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 4 Yon bright Orb he did display, Giving him to rule the Day; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 5 He, the Stars of feebler Light, Gave the Moon to gild the Night, For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 6 GOD, with his almighty Hand, Smote the Hopes of Egypt's Land; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 7 And with his resistless Arm, Brought out Israel safe from Harm; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 8 He the Red Sea did divide, Israel passing through the Tide; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 9 But proud Pharaoh and his Host, They were in the Billows lost; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 10 Safe he led his chosen Seed, And for them made Monarchs bleed; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 11 Og and Sihon he destroy'd, Whilst his Saints their Land enjoy'd; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 12 He, dispersing all our Foes, Rescu'd us from heavy Woes; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end. 13 GOD doth Food to all supply; Praise the LORD, who reigns on high; For he proves our constant Friend, And his Love shall never end.

Praise the LORD with one Consent

Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Praise the LORD with one Consent, Magnify his holy Name; Let the Servants of the LORD Still his worthy Praise proclaim. 2 Praise him, ye that in his House, Wait with never-ceasing Care; Praise him, ye that to his Courts With religious Zeal repair. 3 This our truest Int'rest is Joyful Hymns of Praise to sing; With loud Songs to bless his Name, Is a most delightful Thing. 4 GOD his own peculiar Choice Doth the Sons of Jacob make; Israel's num'rous Offspring too, For his Treasure he doth take. 5 That he's great, we often have By our glad Experience found; We have seen that he with Pow'r, Far above all Gods, is crown'd. 6 For with unresisted Strength, He performs his sov'reign Will; Thro' Heav'n, Earth, and the Stores Which the deepest Caverns fill. 7 Vapours from the Ground he lifts, Which, though poiz'd in liquid Air, Fall at last in Show'rs through which His tremendous Lightnings glare. 8 From his Stores he brings the Wind; And with his avenging Hand, Smote at once, of Man and Beast, The First-born through Egypt's Land. 9 He dread Signs and Wonders shew'd, Throughout stubborn Egypt's Coast; Plagues on haughty Pharaoh sent, And on all his num'rous Host. 10 He the Heathen Nations smote, Mighty Monarchs he suppress'd; Sihon, Og, and all besides, Who rich Canaan's Land possess'd. 11 Then, upon his chosen Race, All their Land he did entail; Therefore shall his Glory last, And his praise shall never fail. 12 For the LORD his People's Cause Shall with pitying Eyes survey; And, repenting of his Wrath, Turn his kindled Rage away. 13 Idols, whose false Worship spreads Over all the Heathen Lands, Made of Silver and of Gold, Are the Work of human Hands. 14 They have Tongues, but cannot speak, Useless are their polish'd Eyes; They have Ears, and yet they're deaf, And no Breath their Moth supplies. 15 Senseless, as themselves, are they, Who their utmost Skill apply, First to frame them, and when fram'd, On their Work for Aid rely. 16 But their just Returns to GOD, Still let grateful Israel pay; Let the Priests of Aaron's Race, Bless the LORD without Delay. 17 Of his Love, let Levi's House, Their most pious Sense express; Let all those that fear the LORD, His great Name for ever bless. 18 Oh, let all in Sin's Courts His amazing Works proclaim; And in Salem, where he dwells, Still exalt his holy Name.

Sweeter sounds than music knows

Author: John Newton Appears in 73 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Sweeter sounds than music knows, Charm me in Emmanuel's Name; All her hopes my spirit owes To His birth, and Cross, and shame. 2 When He came the angels sung, "Glory be to God on high:" Lord, unloose my stammering tongue; Who shall louder sing than I? 3 Did the Lord a man become, That He might the law fulfil, Bleed and suffer in my room, And canst thou, my tongue, be still? 4 No; I must my praises bring, Though they worthless are, and weak; For, should I refuse to sing, Sure the very stones would speak. 5 O my Saviour, Shield, and Sun, Shepherd, Brother, Lord, and Friend-- Every precious name in one! I will love Thee without end.
