The God of Abr'am Praise

Author: Thomas Olivers Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Appears in 454 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 19:4 Lyrics: 1 The God of Abr'am praise, who reigns enthroned above; Ancient of everlasting days, and God of love; the Lord, the great I AM, by earth and heav'n confessed: I bow and bless the sacred name, forever bless'd. 2 He by himself hath sworn, I on his oath depend: I shall on eagles' wings upborne, to heav'n ascend; I shall behold his face, I shall his power adore, and sing the wonders of his grace forevermore. 3 The God who reigns on high the great archangels sing, and “Holy, Holy, Holy!” cry, “Almighty King! who wast and art the same, and evermore shall be; the Lord, our Father! great I AM, we worship thee.” 4 The whole triumphant host give thanks to God on high, “Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!” they ever cry; Hail, Abr'am’s God and mine (I join the heav'nly lays), all might and majesty are thine and endless praise!

Refrain: Trust and obey -- For there’s no other way To be happy in Jesus But to trust and obey. 2 Not a shadow can rise, Not a cloud in the skies, But his smile quickly drives it away; Not a doubt nor a fear, Not a sigh nor a tear, Can abide while we trust and obey. [Refrain] 3 Not a burden we bear, Not a sorrow we share, But our toil he doth richly repay; Not a grief nor a loss, Not a frown nor a cross, But is blest if we trust and obey. [Refrain] 4 But we never can prove The delights of his love Until all on the altar we lay, For the favor he shows And the joy he bestows Are for those who will trust and obey. [Refrain] 5 Then in fellowship sweet We will sit at his feet, Or we’ll walk by his side in the way; What he says we will do, Where he sends we will go -- Never fear, only trust and obey.

Bell, 1862-1947 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 35 hymnals Scripture: Exodus 19:20 Lyrics: 1 The glory of these forty days We celebrate with songs of praise; For Christ, through whom all things were made, Himself has fasted and has prayed. 2 Alone and fasting Moses saw The loving God who gave the law; And to Elijah, fasting, came The steeds and chariots of flame. 3 So Daniel trained his mystic sight, Delivered from the lion's might; And John, the Bridegroom’s friend, became The herald of Messiah’s name. 4 Then grant, O God, that we may, too, Return in fast and prayer to you. Our spirits strengthen with your grace, And give us joy to see your face.
