O Worship the King, all glorious above!
Author: Robert Grant Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1,147 hymnals Lyrics:
O Worship the King, all glorious above!
O gratefully sing his power and his love!
Our shield and defender, the Ancient of days,
Pavilioned in splendor, and girded with praise.
O tell of his might! O sing of his grace!
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form,
And dark is his path on the wings of the storm.
The earth, with its store of wonders untold,
Almighty, thy power hath founded of old,
Hath 'stablished it fast by a changeless decree,
And round it hath cast, like a mantle, the sea.
Thy bountiful care, what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;
It streams from the hills; it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In thee do we trust, nor find thee to fail;
Thy mercies, how tender! how firm to the end!
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend!
O measureless Might! ineffable Love!
While angels delight to hymn thee above,
The humbler creation, though feeble their lays,
With true adoration shall sing to thy praise.
Amen.

Rejoice in God's Saints
Author: Fred Pratt Green, 1903-2000 Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 19 hymnals First Line: Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days Lyrics: 1 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
Their faith in acquiring the habit of prayer,
their depth of adoring, Lord, help us to share.
2 Some march with events to turn them God's way;
some need to withdraw, the better to pray;
some carry the gospel through fire and through flood:
our world is their parish; their purpose is God.
3 Rejoice in those saints, unpraised and unknown,
who bear someone's cross or shoulder their own;
they shame our complaining, our comforts, our cares:
what patience in caring, what courage, is theirs!
4 Rejoice in God's saints, today and all days;
a world without saints forgets how to praise.
In loving, in living, they prove it is true:
the way of self-giving, Lord, leads us to you.

My People, Give Ear, Attend to My Word
Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word,
in parables new deep truths shall be heard;
the wonderful story our fathers made known
to children succeeding by us must be shown.
2 Instructing our sons we gladly record
the praises, the works, the might of the Lord,
for he has commanded that what he has done
be passed in tradition from father to son.
3 Let children thus learn from history's light
to hope in our God and walk in his sight,
the God of their fathers to fear and obey,
and ne'er like their fathers to turn from his way.
4 The story be told, to warn and restrain,
of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain,
of soldiers who faltered when battle was near,
who kept not God's cov'nant nor walked in his fear.
5 God's wonderful works to them he had shown,
his marvelous deeds their fathers had known;
he made for their pathway the waters divide,
his glorious pillar of cloud was their guide.
6 Unharmed through the sea, where perished their foe,
he caused them with ease and safety to go;
his holy land gaining, in peace they were brought
to dwell in the mountain the Lord's hand had bought.
7 He gave them the land, a heritage fair;
the nations that dwelt in wickedness there
he drove out before them with great overthrow,
and gave to his people the tents of the foe.
8 His servant he called, a shepherd of sheep,
from tending his flock, the people to keep;
so David, their shepherd, with wisdom and might
protected and fed them and led them aright.

My Soul, Praise the LORD!
Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 9 hymnals First Line: My soul, praise the LORD! The LORD is most great Refrain First Line: Your Spirit, O LORD, makes life to abound Lyrics:
1 My soul, praise the LORD! The LORD is most great,
with glory arrayed, majestic in state.
The light is his garment, the skies form a tent,
and over the waters his couriers are sent.
2 He rides on the clouds and wings of the storm.
The lightning and wind his mission perform.
Foundations of earth he forever has stayed;
to cover it, oceans like garments were laid.
3 On mountains and plains the dark waters lay.
They heard his rebuke and hurried away.
He lifted the mountains, to valleys gave birth,
set boundaries for seas that once covered the earth.
Refrain:
Your Spirit, O LORD, makes life to abound.
The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground.
To God be all glory and wisdom and might.
May God in his creatures forever delight.
4 God causes the springs of water to flow
in streams from the hills to valleys below.
The LORD gives the streams for all living things there,
while birds with their singing enrapture the air.
5 Down mountains and hills your showers are sent.
With fruit of your work the earth is content.
You give grass for cattle and food for our toil,
enriching our labors with bread, wine, and oil.
6 The trees that the LORD has planted are fed,
and over the earth their branches are spread.
They keep in their shelter the birds of the air.
The life of each creature God keeps in his care. [Refrain]
7 The seasons are fixed by wisdom divine.
The slow-changing moon shows forth God's design.
The sun in its circuit its Maker obeys
and, running its journey, hastes not nor delays.
8 The LORD makes the night, when, leaving their lair,
the lions go forth, God's bounty to share.
The LORD makes the morning, when beasts steal away,
when we are beginning the work of the day.
9 How many and wise the works of the LORD!
The earth with its wealth of creatures is stored.
The sea bears in safety the ships to and fro;
Leviathan plays in the waters below.
10 Your creatures all look to you for their food.
Your hand opens wide, they gather the good.
When you hide your face, LORD, in anguish they yearn;
when you stop their breathing, to dust they return. [Refrain]
11 Before the LORD's might earth trembles and quakes.
The mountains are rent, and smoke from them breaks.
I promise to worship the LORD all my days.
Yes, while I have being, my God I will praise.
12 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet.
May sinners depart in ruin complete.
My soul, praise the LORD God - his name be adored.
Come, praise him, all people, and worship the LORD.

Arrayed in His love, and His righteousness.
Come sing in His presence, come speak of His grace

Who stand in His house, a wonderful sight
Where seraphs are bowing, where angels attend,

Speak often of peace that comes from above.
Call mercy, a river, watch grace flowing through
This glorious salvation, says this is for you.

My soul, praise the Lord, thou, Lord, mine own God
Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 My soul, praise the Lord,
thou, Lord, mine own God,
art glorious, enrobed
in beauty and might;
2 the heavens, like a curtain,
thou spreadest abroad;
as raiment, around thee
enfoldest the light.
3 For chambers-beams sure,
dark waters he binds;
of clouds dim and deep
his chariot doth frame,
on stormy blasts riding,
on wings of all winds;
4 his angels are spirits,
his servants a flame.
5 Foundations secure
he laid for the globe,
that stable and firm
it ever should last;
6 the waste ocean gathering
o'er all as a robe:
o'er all the high mountains
the surging waves passed.
7 At thy dread rebuke
they flee and they fail;
thy thunder is heard,
they speed here and there;
8 they burst the ridge over,
they rush down the vale;
where thou hast appointed,
they haste to repair.
9 Thine own word hath set
their border and bound,
they roar and they toss,
but cannot pass o'er:
the word of Jehovah
a sure fence is found;
the flood o'er the mountains
returneth no more.
10 He unto the vales
the springs doth convey;
and onward they wind
their course through the hills;
11 whereat the wild asses
their thirst oft allay,
and beasts of the forest
thereof drink their fills.
12 By thee pleasant springs,
the fowls of the air
inhabit the trees,
the margin along;
and, as in their gladness
they move here and there
among the green branches,
praise God with their song.
13 His rain on the hills
he pours from on high,
with fruit of thy works
the earth is replete;
14 his grass to the cattle
he doth not deny,
and gives for man's service
the green herb as meat.
15 From earth, store of good
he brings for man's sake;
rich oil, gladsome wine,
heart-strengthening bread.
16 His trees full of moisture
the great God did make;
his cedars he planted
on Lebanon's head.
17 Secure in those shades
the bird builds her nest;
the firs to the stork
a house have supplied;
18 the hills are a refuge
for wild goats to rest;
the crags of the rough rocks
for conies to hide.
19 The moon he hath set
for seasons to run;
the times he ordained
her change ever shows;
and so, his course circling,
the glorious sun
his hour of descending
as constantly knows.
20 When darkness doth come
by thy will and power,
then prowl forth abroad
the beasts of the wood.
21 The lions rang roaring
their prey to devour;
and yet it is thou, Lord,
who givest them food.
22 As riseth the sun,
they all get them in;
withdrawn from his light,
to couch in their den;
23 but man forth proceedeth
his toil to begin;
till night come to call him
to take rest again.
24 How manifold, Lord,
the works of thy hand!
Surpassing our thoughts
their numbers are found!
Thy outspread creation
in wisdom is planned,
and full of thy riches
the wide world around.
23 So in the great sea
thy works are displayed,
where creeping things move,
unnumbered in sort;
26 and there the ships wander,
and there thou hast made
Leviathan, hugest
of monsters, to sport.
27 All these wait on thee
their food to receive;
that thou, in due time,
their portion may'st give:
18 and, when it doth pleasethee
their wants to relieve,
full gladly they gather
thy bounty and live.
Thou openest thine hand;
how full their supply!
29 Thou hidest thy face,
confounded they mourn:
when thou from them takest
their spirit, they die,
and to their dust, changing,
again they return.
30 Thou send'st forth thy breath,
and they are new made;
and earth, as at first,
looks vernal and bright.
31 In glory for ever
the Lord is arrayed,
and in his creation
our God will delight.
32 He looks on the earth,
it reels to and fro;
he touches the hills,
with smoke they are crowned.
33 Through life to Jehovah
mine anthems shall flow;
while yet I have being
his praise I will sound.
34 With dear thoughts of him
my heart shall run o'er;
with God all my joy
in treasure is stored.
35 The sinners are wasted;
earth sees them no more,
the rebels — where are they?
My soul, praise the Lord.

நாம் போற்றிடுவோம்
Author: Nahum Tate; S. John Barathi Meter: 10.10.11.11 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: நாம் போற்றிடுவோம் மெய் மனதுடன் Lyrics: 1 நாம் போற்றிடுவோம் மெய் மனதுடன்,
அவர் கிருபையை, சூழ்ந்தானந்திப்போம்,
சீயோன் மக்களாக மீட்பரை வாழ்த்தி,
அவர் மேல் சார்ந்தே, என்றும் நம்பியே நாம்.
2 மார்பினில் சார்ந்தே அவர் மந்தையாய்,
அவர் காப்பாரே, எத்தீங்கும் நேரா,
பொக்கிஷமாமே நாம் அமைதி தந்து,
அளவில்லாமலே தாழ்மையுள்ளோர் மேல்.
3 வல்லமை நம்பி அவர் பிள்ளையாய்,
அவர் நம் ஒளி, நம் பட்டயமே,
மீட்பின் ராஜனாம் யார் எதிர்த்து நிற்பார்,
கெம்பீரிப்போமே, புது துதியாலே. Used With Tune: HANOVER
நாம் போற்றிடுவோம்

On o si dide fun igbala mi;
Ki nsa ma gbadura, On o se ranwo:
’Gba Krist wa lodo mi, ifoiya ko si.
2 B’ona mi mi ba su, on l’o sa nto mi,
Ki nsa gboran sa, On o si pese;
Bi iranlowo eba gbogba saki,
Oro t’enu Re so y’o bori dandan.
3 Ife t’o nfi han, ko je ki nro pe
Y’o fi mi sile ninu wahala;
Iranwo ti mo si nri lojojumo,
O nki mi laiya pe, emi o la ja.
4 Emi o se kun tori iponju,
Tabi irora? O ti so tele!
Mo m’ oro Re p’ awon ajogun ’gbala,
Nwon ko le s’aikoja larin wahala.
5 Eda ko le so kikiro ago
T’Olugbala mu, k’elese le ye;
Aiye Re tile buru ju temi lo,
Jesu ha le jiya, K’emi si ma sa!
6 Nje b’ohun gbogbo ti nsise ire
Adun n’ikoro, onje li ogun
B’ona tile koro, sa ko ni pe mo,
Gbana ori ’segun yio ti dun to! Used With Tune: HANOVER
