The God of Abraham Praise
Author: Thomas Olivers (1725-1799); Daniel ben Judah Hymnal: Common Praise (1998) #347 (1998) Meter: 6.6.8.4 D Scripture: Romans 4:13-25 Lyrics: 1 The God of Abraham praise,
who reigns enthroned above;
Ancient of everlasting days,
and God of love;
Jehovah, great I AM!
by earth and heaven confessed:
I bow and bless the sacred Name
forever blest.
2 The great I AM has sworn;
I on this oath depend.
I shall, on eagles' wings upborne,
to heaven ascend.
I shall behold God's face;
I shall God's power adore,
and sing the wonders of God's grace
forevermore.
3 The goodly land I see
with peace and plenty blest;
a land of sacred liberty,
and endless rest.
There milk and honey flow,
and oil and wine abound,
and trees of life forever grow
with mercy crowned.
4 Triumphant hosts on high give thanks
eternally
and "Holy, holy, holy” cry,
"great Trinity!"
Hail Abraham’s God and ours!
One mighty hymn we raise:
all power and majesty be yours
and endless praise! Topics: Abraham and Sarah; Exodus; Gathering of the Community; Moses; Praise of God; Trinity Languages: English Tune Title: LEONI

Begin, my tongue, some heavenly theme
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Together in Song #116 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 4:13-25 Lyrics: 1 Begin, my tongue, some heavenly theme
and speak some boundless thing,
the mighty works or mightier name,
of our eternal king.
2 Tell of his wondrous faithfulness,
and sound his power abroad;
sing the sweet promise of his grace
and our fulfilling God.
3 His very word of grace is strong
as that which built the skies;
the voice that rolls the stars along
speaks all the promises.
4 He said, "Let wide the heaven be spread,'
and heaven was stretched abroad;
'Abram, I'll be your God,' he said
and he was Abram's God.
5 O might I hear your heavenly tongue
but whisper, 'You are mine';
those gentle words should raise my song
to notes almost divine.
6 How would my leaping heart rejoice,
and think my heaven secure!
I trust the all-creating voice,
and faith desires no more. Topics: Confession of Faith; Confidence; Covenant; Creation; Faith; Faithfulness of God; Grace; Patriarchs; Proclamation: Witness; Providence; Word of God Languages: English Tune Title: ST MAGNUS

O love how deep, how broad, how high!
Author: Benjamin Webb, 1819-85; Thomas à Kempis, 1379-1471 Hymnal: Together in Song #194 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Romans 4:13-25 Lyrics: 1 O love how deep, how broad, how high!
it fills the heart with ecstasy
that God, the Son of God, should take
our mortal form for mortals’ sake.
2 He sent no angel to our race
of higher or of lower place
but wore the robe of human frame
himself, and to this lost world came.
3 For us he was baptized, and bore
his holy fast, and hungered sore;
for us temptations sharp he knew;
for us the tempter overthrew.
4 For us he prayed, for us he taught,
for us his daily works he wrought,
by words and signs and actions, thus
still seeking not himself but us.
5 For us to wicked hands betrayed,
scourged, mocked, in purple robe arrayed,
he bore the shameful cross and death;
for us at length gave up his breath.
6 For us he rose from death again,
for us he went on high to reign,
for us he sent his Spirit here
to guide, to strengthen and to cheer.
7 To him whose boundless love has won
salvation for us through his Son,
to God the Father, glory be
both now and through eternity. Topics: God's Love to Us; Jesus Christ Baptism; Jesus Christ Earthly life; Jesus Christ Incarnation; Jesus Christ Priesthood and Intercession; Jesus Christ Redeemer; Redemption; Satan; Temptation; The Gospel Languages: English Tune Title: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR
O love how deep, how broad, how high!
In vain we seek for peace with God
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #377 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 4:15 Lyrics: 1 In vain we seek for peace with God
By methods of our own;
Blest Saviour! nothing but thy blood
Can bring us near the throne.
2 The threatenings of thy broken law
Impress the soul with dread:
If God his sword of vengeance draw,
It strikes the spirit dead.
3 But thine atoning sacrifice
Hath answered all demands;
And peace and pardon from the skies
Are offered by thy hands.
4 'Tis by thy death we live, O Lord,
'Tis on thy cross we rest:
For ever be thy love adored,
Thy name forever blest. Topics: The Christian System Atonement; By Thy Death We Live
In vain we seek for peace with God
God's holy law, transgressed
Author: Beddome Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #814 (1873) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Scripture: Romans 4:15 Lyrics: 1 God's holy law, transgressed,
Speaks nothing but despair;
Burdened with guilt, with grief oppressed,
We find no comfort there.
2 Not all our groans and tears,
Nor works which we have done,
Nor vows, nor promises, nor prayers,
Can e'er for sin atone.
3 Relief alone is found
In Jesus' precious blood:
'Tis this that heals the mortal wound,
And reconciles to God.
4 High lifted on the cross,
The spotless victim dies:
This is salvation's only source,
Hence all our hopes arise. Topics: Provisions of the Gospel Glad Tidings; None Other Name under Heaven

Salvation now to us has come
Author: Paul Speratus, 1484-1551; Carl Döving, 1867-1936 Hymnal: Together in Song #195 (1999) Meter: 8.7.87.8.8.7 Scripture: Romans 4:13-25 Lyrics: 1 Salvation now to us has come
by God’s free grace and favour;
good works cannot avert our doom,
they help and save us never.
In faith we look to Christ alone,
who did for all the world atone;
he is our one redeemer.
2 The law of God fulfilled must be,
or we were lost for ever;
therefore God sent his Son that he
might us from death deliver.
For us the law he has fulfilled,
the Father's anger he has stilled;
God's curse is gone for ever.
3 Since Christ has full atonement made
and brought us to salvation,
each Christian therefore may be glad,
and build on this foundation:
your grace alone, dear Lord, we plead,
your death is now our life indeed,
for you have paid our ransom.
4 To you, O Lord, in faith we cling,
we love and trust you truly,
and from this faith good works will spring
that serve our neighbour duly.
It's faith alone that justified;
the works that from such faith arise
reveal that it is living.
5 All blessing, honour, thanks and praise
to Father, Son, and Spirit,
to God who saved us by his grace;
all glory to his merit!
O Triune God, in heaven above,
you have revealed your saving love;
your blessèd name we hallow.

Salvation now to us has come
Salvation unto Us has Come
Author: Paul Speratus Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnal #377 (1941) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.8.7 Scripture: Romans 4 Lyrics: 1 Salvation unto us has come
By God's free grace and favor;
Good works cannot avert our doom,
They help and save us never.
Faith looks to Jesus Christ alone,
Who did for all the world atone;
He is our one Redeemer.
2 What God did in His Law demand
And none to Him could render
Caused wrath and woe on ev'ry hand
For man, the vile offender.
Our flesh has not those pure desires
The spirit of the Law requires,
And lost is our condition.
3 It was a false, misleading dream
That God His Law had given
That sinners could themselves redeem
And by their works gain heaven.
The Law is but a mirror bright
To bring the inbred sin to light
That lurks within our nature.
4 From sin our flesh could not abstain,
Sin held its sway unceasing;
The task was useless and in vain,
Our guilt was e'er increasing.
None can remove sin's poisoned dart
Or purify our guileful heart--
So deep is our corruption.
5 Yet as the Law must be fulfilled
Or we must die despairing,
Christ came and has God's anger stilled,
Our human nature sharing.
He hath for us the Law obeyed
And thus His Father's vengeance stayed
Which over us impended.
6 Since Christ has full atonement made
And brought to us salvation,
Each Christian therefore may be glad
And build on this foundation.
Thy grace alone, dear Lord, I plead,
Thy death is now my life indeed,
For Thou have paid my ransom.
7 Let me not doubt, but trust in Thee,
Thy Word cannot be broken:
Thy call rings out, "Come unto Me!"
No falsehood hast Thou spoken.
Baptized into Thy precious name,
My faith cannot be put to shame,
And I shall never perish.
8 The Law reveals the guilt of sin
And makes us conscience-stricken;
The Gospel then doth enter in
The sinful soul to quicken.
Come to the cross, trust Christ, and live;
The Law no peace can ever give,
No comfort and no blessing.
9 Faith clings to Jesus' cross alone
And rests in Him unceasing;
And by its fruits true faith is known,
With love and hope increasing.
For faith alone doth justify;
Works serve thy neighbor and supply
The proof that faith is living.
10 All blessing, honor, thanks, and praise
To Father, Son, and Spirit,
The God who saved us by His grace--
All glory to His merit!
O Triune God in heaven above,
Who has revealed Thy saving love;
Thy blessed name be hallowed.
