Psalm 146
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Appears in 527 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 First Line: I'll praise my Maker with my breath Lyrics:
I'll praise my Maker with my breath,
And when my voice is lost in death,
Praise shall employ my nobler powers
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last,
Or immortality endures.
Why should I make a man my trust?
Princes must die and turn to dust;
Vain is the help of flesh and blood:
Their breath departs, their pomp, and power,
And thoughts, all vanish in an hour,
Nor can they make their promise good.
Happy the man whose hopes rely
On Isr'el's God: he made the sky,
And earth, and seas, with all their train:
His truth for ever stands secure;
He saves th' oppressed, he feeds the poor,
And none shall find his promise vain.
The Lord hath eyes to give the blind;
The Lord supports the sinking mind;
He sends the lab'ring conscience peace;
He helps the stranger in distress,
The widow and the fatherless,
And grants the pris'ner sweet release.
He loves his saints, he knows them well,
But turns the wicked down to hell;
Thy God, O Zion! ever reigns:
Let every tongue, let every age,
In this exalted work engage;
Praise him in everlasting strains.
I'll praise him while he lends me breath;
And when my voice is lost in death,
Praise shall employ my nobler powers:
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last,
Or immortality endures.

Psalm 146
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 117 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 First Line: Praise ye the Lord, my heart shall join Lyrics:
Praise ye the Lord, my heart shall join
In work so pleasant, so divine;
Now, while the flesh is mine abode,
And when my soul ascends to God.
Praise shall employ my noblest powers,
While immortality endures;
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last.
Why should I make a man my trust?
Princes must die and turn to dust;
Their breath departs, their pomp, and power,
And thoughts, all vanish in an hour.
Happy the man whose hopes rely
On Isr'el's God; he made the sky,
And earth, and seas, with all their train,
And none shall find his promise vain.

The widow and the fatherless.
He loves his saints, he knows them well,
But turns the wicked down to hell:

Praise him in everlasting strains.

God of my life! through all my days
Author: Doddridge Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 240 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 Lyrics: 1 God of my life! through all my days
I'll tune the grateful notes of praise;
The song shall wake with opening light,
And warble to the silent night.
2 When anxious cares would break my rest,
And griefs would tear my throbbing breast,
The notes of praise ascending high
Shall check the murmur and the sigh.
3 When death o'er nature shall prevail,
And all the powers of language fail,
Joy through my swimming eyes shall break,
And mean the thanks I can not speak.
4 But oh! when that last conflict's o'er,
And I am chained to earth no more,
With what glad accents shall I rise
To join the music of the skies!
5 Then shall I learn the exalted strains
That echo through the heavenly plains:
And emulate with joy unknown
The glowing seraphs round thy throne. Topics: General Praise; Song of Gratitude and Praise

Hallelujah, Praise Jehovah, O My Soul
Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 22 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 Lyrics: 1 Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
of my God through all my days.
Put no confidence in princes,

he shall die, to dust returning,
and his purposes shall end.
2 Happy is the man that chooses
Israel's God to be his aid;
he is blessed whose hope of blessing
on the Lord his God is stayed.
Heav'n and earth the Lord created,
seas and all that they contain;
he delivers from oppression,
righteousness he will maintain.
3 Food he daily gives the hungry,
Sets the mourning prisoner free,
raises those bowed down with anguish,
makes the sightless eye to see.
Well Jehovah loves the righteous,
and the stranger he befriends,
helps the fatherless and widow,
judgment on the wicked sends.
4 Hallelujah, praise Jehovah,
O my soul, Jehovah praise;
I will sing the glorious praises
of my God through all my days.
Over all God reigns forever,
through all ages he is King;
unto him, your God, O Zion,
joyful hallelujahs sing.

Psalm 146: Praise God. The Lord praise, O my soul
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 10 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 First Line: Praise God. The Lord praise, O my soul Lyrics:
1Praise God. The Lord praise, O my soul.
2I’ll praise God while I live;
While I have being to my God
in songs I’ll praises give.
3Trust not in princes, nor man’s son,
in whom there is no stay:
4His breath departs, to’s earth he turns;
that day his thoughts decay.
5O happy is that man and blest,
whom Jacob’s God doth aid;
Whose hope upon the Lord doth rest,
and on his God is stay’d:
6Who made the earth and heavens high,
who made the swelling deep,
And all that is within the same;
who truth doth ever keep:
7Who righteous judgment executes
for those oppress’d that be,
Who to the hungry giveth food;
God sets the pris’ners free.
8The Lord doth give the blind their sight,
the bowed down doth raise:
The Lord doth dearly love all those
that walk in upright ways.
9The stranger’s shield, the widow’s stay,
the orphan’s help, is he:
But yet by him the wicked’s way
turn’d upside down shall be.
10The Lord shall reign for evermore:
thy God, O Sion, he
Reigns to all generations.
Praise to the Lord give ye.

O praise the Lord, and thou, my Soul
Appears in 18 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 Lyrics: 1,2 O praise the Lord, and thou, my soul,
for ever bless his Name:
His wond'rous Love, while Life shall last,
my constant Praise shall claim.
3 On Kings, the greatest Sons of Men,
let none for Aid rely;
then cannot save in dang'rous Times,
nor timely Help apply
4 Depriv'd of Breath, to Dust thy turn,
and there neglected lie,
And all their Thoughts and vain Designs
together with them die.
5 Then happy he, who Jacob's God
for his Protector takes;
Who still, with well-plac'd Hope, the Lord
his constant Refuge makes.
6 The Lord, who made both Heav'n and Earth,
and all that they contain,
Will never quit his stedfast Truth,
nor make his Promise vain.
7 The Poor opprest, from all their Wrongs
are eas'd by his Decree;
He gives the hungry needful food,
and sets the Pris'ners free.
8 By him the Blind receive their Sight,
the Weak and Fall'n he rears:
With kind Regard and tender Love
he for the Righteous cares.
9 The Strangers he preserves from Harm,
the Orphan kindly treats,
Defends the Widow, and the Wiles
of wicked Men defeats.
10 The God, that does in Sion dwell,
is our eternal King;
From Age to Age his Reign endures,
let all his Praises sing.

Bless, O my soul, His holy name.

2 Trust not in princes, they are but mortal;
Earth-born they are and soon decay.

When the dark grave doth claim its prey.

Trust ye in Christ, our God and Lord.
Allelujah, allelujah!
3 Blessed, yea, blessed is he forever
Whose help is in the Lord most high,
Whom from the saving faith naught can sever,
And who in hope to Christ draws nigh.
To all who trust in Him, our Lord,
Counsel and aid He doth afford.
Allelujah, allelujah!
4 God the Almighty, the great Creator,
Ruler of sky and land and sea,
All things ordained, and sooner or later
They come to pass unfailingly.
His rule is over rich and poor,
His promise ever standeth sure.
Allelujah, allelujah!
5 Penitent sinners, for mercy crying,
Pardon and peace from Him obtain;
Ever the wants of the poor supplying,
Their faithful God He doth remain.
He helps His children in distress,
The widows and the fatherless.
Allelujah, allelujah!
6 Praise, all you nations, the name so holy
Of Him who doth such wondrous things!
All that hath being, to praise Him solely,
With happy heart its Amen sings!
Children of God, with angel host
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!

Sing Hallelujah, praise the Lord, I'll praise
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 Lyrics: 1 Sing HALLELUJAH! praise the LORD,
2 I'll praise JEHOVAH all my days:
O thou my soul! I'll to my God,
While I a being have, sing praise.
3 Trust not in princes, nor mens sons,
Who can no succour to you send;
4 Their breath expires, to earth they turn,
And all their thoughts that moment end.
5 O bless'd is he who hath the God
Of Jacob for his constant aid;
Whose lively confidence upon,
The LORD his God is firmly stay'd.
6 Who heav'n, earht, sea, all in them made;
Who ever doth his truth make good;
7 Who for th' oppressed judgment does;
And kindly gives the hungry food.
8 JEHOVAH sets the prisoners free,
JEHOVAH sight gives to the blind,
The LORD lifts up the bowed down,
The LORD is to the righteous kind.
9 The LORD the strangers doth preserve,
The widows and the orphans raise;
But He of them who wicked are
Intirely overthrows the ways.
10 The LORD shall reign for evermore;
Thy mighty God, O Zion, He
To generations all shall reign:
Therefore sing HALLELUJAH, ye

Lauda anima
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 First Line: My soul praise thou the Lord alwaies Lyrics: 1 My soul praise thou the Lord alwaies,
my God I will confesse:
2 While breath and life prolong my daies
my tongue no time shall cease.
3 Trust not in worldly Princes then,
though they abound in wealth:
Nor in the sonnes of mortall men,
in whom there is no health.
4 For why? Their breath doth soon depart,
to earth anon they fall,
And then the counsels of their heart
decay and perish all.
5 O happy is that man I say,
whom Jacob's God doth aid:
And he whose hope doth not decay,
but on the Lord is staid.
6 Which made the earth and waters deep,
the heavens high withall:
Which doth his word and promise keep
and loose the fetters strong.
7 With right alwaies doth he proceed
for such as suffer wrong:
The poore and hungry he doth feed,
and loose the fetters strong.
8 The Lord doth send the blind their sight,
the lame to limbs restore:
The Lord (I say) doth love the right,
and just man evermore.
9 He doth defend the fatherlesse,
and stranger sad in heart:
And quit the widow from distresse,
and ill mens ways subvert.
10 The Lord thy God eternally
O Sion still shall raigne:
In time of all posterity
for ever to remaine.

With songs and honors sounding loud
Author: Rev. Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 279 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 Lyrics: 1 With songs and honors sounding loud,
Address the Lord on high;
Over the heavens He spreads His cloud,
And waters veil the sky.
2 He sends His showers of blessing down
To cheer the plains below;
He makes the grass the mountains crown,
And corn in valleys grow.
3 His steady counsels change the face
Of the declining year;
He bids the sun cut short his race,
And wintry days appear.
4 He sends His word, and melts the snow;
The fields no longer mourn;
He calls the warmer gales to blow,
And bids the spring return.
5 The changing wind, the flying cloud,
Obey His mighty word:
With songs and honors sounding loud
Praise ye the sovereign Lord!
Amen. Topics: God the Father God in Nature; Adoration; Creation, The; Dedication Services Of Memorial Gifts; God Eternity and Power, His; God Nature, His Glory in; Joy; Nature Services Used With Tune: BEDFORD

Eternal Power, whose high abode
Author: Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 226 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 146 Lyrics: 1 Eternal Power, whose high abode
Becomes the grandeur of a God:
In vain the loftiest angel tries
To reach thy height with wondering eyes.
2 Thy dazzling glories while he sings,
He hides his face beneath his wings;
Seraphs that most with ardor glow,
Still at an humble distance bow.
3 Earth from afar has heard thy fame,
And worms have learned to lisp thy name;
But oh, the glories of thy mind
Leave all our soaring thoughts behind.
4 God is in heaven and man below;
Soft be our strains, our words be few;
A sacred reverence checks our songs,
And praise sits trembling on our tongues.

in shades of death have been.

the gathering nations come;
they joy as when the reapers bear
their harvest treasures home.

and break the tyrant's rod,
as in the day when Midian fell
before the sword of God.

to us a Son is given,
and on his shoulder ever rests
all power in earth and heaven.

the God by all adored.
