Casting down their golden crowns around the glassy sea;

through the eye of sinful man Thy glory may not see,
only Thou art holy, there is none beside Thee,
Perfect in power, in love, and purity.

Before Jehovah's Awful Throne
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #3 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah’s awful throne,
Ye nations, bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone,
He can create, and He destroy.
2 His sov'reign pow'r, without our aid,
Made us of clay, and form'd us men;
And, when like wand'ring sheep we stray'd,
He brought us to His fold again.
3 We’ll crowd His gates with thankful songs,
High as the heav'ns our voices raise;
And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,
Shall fill His courts with sounding praise.
4 Wide as the world is His command;
Vast as eternity His love;
Firm as a rock His truth shall stand,
When rolling years shall cease to move.

Author: Robert Grant Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #4 (1999) Meter: 10.10.11.11 First Line: O worship the King, all-glorious above Lyrics: 1 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.
2 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.
3 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.
4 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!

God Is Here
Author: Fred Pratt Green Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #5 (1999) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: God is here! As we your people Lyrics: 1 God is here! As we your people
meet to offer praise and prayer,
may we find in fuller measure
what it is in Christ we share.
Here, as in the world around us,
all our varied skills and arts
wait the coming of his Spirit
into open minds and hearts.
2 Here are symbols to remind us
of our lifelong need of grace;
here are table, font, and pulpit;
here the cross has central place.
Here in honesty of preaching,
here in silence, as in speech,
here, in newness and renewal,
God the Spirit comes to each.
3 Here our children find a welcome
in the Shepherd's flock and fold;
here, as bread and wine are taken,
Christ sustains us, as of old.
Here the servants of the Servant
seek in worship to explore
what it means in daily living
to believe and to adore.
4 Lord of all, of church and kingdom,
in an age of change and doubt
keep us faithful to the gospel;
help us work your purpose out.
Here, in this day's dedication,
all we have to give, receive;
we, who cannot live without you,
we adore you! We believe! Topics: Adoration and Praise Languages: English Tune Title: ABBOTT'S LEIGH

With brighter and still brighter ray,

Father, How Wide Thy Glory Shines

How high Thy wonders rise!
Known through the earth by thousand signs,
By thousands through the skies.

Their motions speak Thy skill:
And on the wings of every hour
We read Thy patience still.

To save rebellious worms,
Where vengeance and compassion join
In their divinest forms:
4 Our thoughts are lost in reverent awe;
We love and we adore;
The first archangel never saw
So much of God before.

Nor dares a creature guess
Which of the glories brightest shone,
The justice or the grace.
6 Now the full glories of the Lamb
Adorn the heavenly plains;
Bright cherubs learn Immanuel’s name
And try their choicest strains.
7 O may I bear some humble part
In that immortal song!
Wonder and joy shall tune my heart,
And love command my tongue.

The earth so bright;
So full of splendor and of joy,
Beauty and light,
So many glorious things are here,
Noble and right.

Joy to abound;
So many gentle thoughts and deeds
Circling us round;
That in the darkest spot of earth
Some love is found.
3 I thank Thee, that all our joy
Is touched with pain;
That shadows fall on brightest hours,
That thorns remain;
So that earth's bliss may be our guide,
And not our chain.
4 I thank thee, Lord, that thou hast kept
The best in store;
We have enough, yet not too much,
To long for more;
A yearning for a deeper peace
Not known before.
5 I thank thee, Lord, that here our souls,
Though amply blest,
Can never find, although they seek,
A perfect rest;
Nor ever shall, until they lean
On Jesus' breast.

Full salvation to each heart.

Wand'ring from the fold of God;
He, to save my soul from danger,
Interposed His precious blood.
3 O, to grace how great a debtor
Daily I'm constrained to be!
Let that grace, Lord, like a fetter,
Bind my wand'ring heart to Thee.
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it:
Prone to leave the God I love;
Here's my heart, Lord, take and seal it,
Seal it from Thy courts above.

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing

Author: Robert A. West, 1809-1865 Hymnal: AMEZ1996 #30 (1999) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Come, let us tune our loftiest song
And raise to Christ our joyful strain;
Worship and thanks to Him belong,
Who reigns and shall forever reign.
2 His sovereign power our bodies made;
Our souls are His immortal breath;
And when His creatures sinned, He bled,
To save us from eternal death.
3 Burn every breast with Jesus’ love;
Bound every heart with rapturous joy;
And saints on earth, with saints above,
Your voices in His praise employ.
4 Extol the Lamb with loftiest song;
Prolong for Him your cheerful strain;
Worship and thanks to Him belong,
Who reigns and shall forever reign.

And for his sheep he doth us take.

Approach with joy his courts unto;
Praise, laud, and bless his name always,
For it is seemly so to do.

His mercy is forever sure;
His truth at all times firmly stood,
And shall from age to age endure.

Restored to life, and power, and thought.

Hover around us while we pray;
new perils past, new sins forgiven,
New thoughts of God, new hope of heaven.
3 If on our daily course our mind
Be set to hallow all we find,
New treasures still of countless price
God will provide for sacrifice.
4 The trivial round, the common task,
Will furnish all we ought to ask,–
Room to deny ourselves, a road
To bring us daily nearer God.
5 Only, O Lord, in Thy great love
Fit us for perfect rest above;
And help us this and every day
To live more nearly as we pray.

Peals over hill and dale,

As joyously it rings,

When from the heart we say,
May Jesus Christ be praised!
The powers of darkness fear,
When this sweet chant they hear,
May Jesus Christ be praised!

In this your concord find,
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Let all the earth around
Ring joyous with the sound,
May Jesus Christ be praised!

The loveliest strain is this,
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Let earth, and sea, and sky
From depth to height reply,
May Jesus Christ be praised!

My canticle divine,
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Be this th'eternal song
Through all the ages long,

When the bird waketh, and the shadows flee;
Fairer than morning, lovelier than daylight,
Dawns the sweet consciousness I am with Thee.
2 Alone with Thee amid the mystic shadows,
The solemn hush of nature newly born;
Alone with Thee in breathless adoration,
In the calm dew and freshness of the morn.
3 Still, still with Thee! As to each newborn morning
A fresh and solemn splendor still is given,
So does this blessed consciousness, awaking,
Breathe each day nearness unto Thee and heaven.
4 When sinks the soul, subdued by toil, to slumber,
Its closing eyes look up to Thee in prayer;
Sweet the repose beneath Thy wings o'ershading.
But sweeter still, to wake and find Thee there.
5 So shall it be at last, in that bright morning,
When the soul waketh, and life's shadows flee;
O in that hour, fairer than daylight dawning,
Shall rise the glorious thought, I am with Thee.

Sure of being safely guided,
Guarded well from every foe.

When Thy gracious face we see;
Every burden will be lighter
When we know it comes from Thee.
Spread Thy love’s broad banner o’er us;
Give us strength to serve and wait,
Till Thy glory breaks before us
Thro' the city’s open gate.

By earth and heav'n confessed;

Forever blest.

At whose supreme command
From earth I rise, and seek the joys
At His right hand;

Its wisdom, fame, and power;
And Him my only portion make,
My shield and tower.

I on His oath depend;
I shall, on eagles' wings upborne,
To heaven ascend;
I shall behold His face,
I shall His power adore,
And sing the wonders of His grace
For evermore.

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.

They all exulting stand,
And tell the wonders he hath done
Through all their land:
The listening spheres attend,
An swell the growing fame;
And sing, in songs which never end,
The wondrous name.

Give thanks to God on high;
"Hail, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,"

Hail, Abraham's God and mine!–
