Eternal Wisdom, thee we praise
Author: Watts Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #60 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Amos 5:8 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Wisdom, thee we praise,
Thee the creations sing:
With thy loved name, rocks, hills, and seas,
And heaven's high palace ring.
2 Thy hand, how wide it spreads the sky,
How glorious to behold!
Tinged with a blue of heavenly dye,
And starred with sparkling gold.
3 There thou hast bid the globes of light
Their endless circuits run;
There the pale planet rules the night;
The day obeys the sun.
4 If down I turn my wandering eyes
On clouds and storms below,
Those under-regions of the skies,
Thy numerous glories show.
5 The noisy winds stand ready there
Thy orders to obey;
With sounding winds they sweep the air,
To make thy chariot way.
6 But the mild glories of thy grace,
Our softer passions move;
Pity divine in Jesus' face
We see, adore, and love.

Praise him who is all praise above,
The Source of wisdom and of love.

A depth, where all our thoughts are drowned;
The stars he numbers; and their names
He gives to all those heavenly flames.
3 Through each bright world above, behold
Ten thousand thousand charms unfold;
Each, air, and mighty seas combine
To speak his wisdom all-divine.
4 But in redemption--oh, what grace!
Its wonders--oh, what thought can trace!

Praise him, my soul, with sweet delight. Topics: Attributes of God Knowledge and Wisdom; Wisdom of God

Author: J. S. B. Monsell, 1811-1875 Hymnal: Common Praise #89 (2000) Meter: 13.10.13.10 Scripture: Amos 5:8 Lyrics: 1 O worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness;
bow down before him, his glory proclaim;
with gold of obedience, and incense of lowliness,
kneel and adore him: the Lord is his name.
2 Low at his feet lay thy burden of carefulness:
high on his heart he will bear it for thee,
comfort thy sorrows, and answer thy prayerfulness,
guiding thy steps as may best for thee be.
3 Fear not to enter his courts in the slenderness
of the poor wealth thou wouldst reckon as thine:
truth in its beauty, and love in its tenderness,
these are the offerings to lay on his shrine.
4 These, though we bring them in trembling and fearfulness,
he will accept for the name that is dear;
mornings of joy give for evenings of tearfulness,
trust for our trembling and hope for our fear.

Judge Eternal, Throned in Splendor
Author: Henry Scott Holland Hymnal: Glory to God #342 (2013) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Scripture: Amos 5:18-24 Lyrics: 1 Judge Eternal, throned in splendor,
Lord of lords and King of kings,
with your living fire of judgment
purge this land of bitter things;
solace all its wide dominion
with the healing of your wings.
2 Still the weary folk are pining
for the hour that brings release,
and the city’s crowded clangor
cries aloud for sin to cease,
and the homesteads and the woodlands
plead in silence for their peace.
3 Crown, O God, your own endeavor;
cleave our darkness with your sword;
feed the faithless and the hungry
with the richness of your word;
cleanse the body of this nation
through the glory of the Lord.

of Mary, faithful mother mild.

all knees must bend; all hearts must bow;
all things on earth with one accord
join those in heaven your name shall bless.
5 Come in your holy might, we pray;
redeem us for eternal day,
when all your judgements will be known
and power of darkness overthrown.
6 To God the Father, God the Son
and God the Spirit, Three-in-One,
laud, honour, might and glory be
from age to age eternally.

off'ring up ourselves in praise;
thankful song shall rise forever,
gracious donor of our days.

toward the goals of Christ, your Son;
all at peace in health and freedom,
races joined, the church made one.
Now direct our daily labor,
lest we strive for self alone;
born with talents, make us servants
fit to answer at your throne.

gain through pow'rs your grace conferred,
ours to use for home and kindred,
and to spread the gospel word.
Open wide our hands in sharing,
as we heed Christ's ageless call,
healing, teaching, and reclaiming,
serving you by loving all.

God of the poor
God of freedom, God of justice
Author: Shirley Erena Murray, 1931- Hymnal: Together in Song #657 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Scripture: Amos 5:21-24 Lyrics: 1 God of freedom, God of justice,
God whose love is strong as death,
God who saw the dark of prison,
God who knew the price of faith:
touch our world of sad oppression
with your Spirit's healing breath.
2 Rid the earth of torture's terror,
God whose hands were nailed to wood;
hear the cries of pain and protest,
God who shed the tears and blood;
move in us the power of pity,
restless for the common good.
3 Make in us a captive conscience
quick to hear, to act, to plead;
make us truly sisters, brothers
of whatever race or creed:
teach us to be fully human,
open to each other's need. Topics: Compassion; Freedom; Healing; Intercession of the Church; International Affairs; Jesus Christ Humanity; Justice; Martyrs; Ministry of God's People; Mission/Sending; Our Love to Others; Unity of Humanity Languages: English Tune Title: TREDEGAR
