Psalms 2:12

• [Psa 2:12] Why Did The Nations Join To Slay

  Why did the nations join to slay The Lord’s anointed Son? Why did they cast His laws away, And tread His Gospel down? The Lord, that sits above the skies, Derides their rage below; He speaks with vengeance in His eyes, And strikes their spirits through. “I call him my eternal Son, And raise Him from the dead; I make My holy hill His throne, And wide His kingdom spread. “Ask Me, My Son, and then enjoy The utmost heathen lands: Thy rod of iron shall destroy The rebel that withstands.” Be wise, ye rulers of the earth, Obey th’ anointed Lord, Adore the King of heav’nly birth, And tremble at His Word. With humble love address His throne; For if He frown, ye die: Those are secure, and those alone, Who on His grace rely.

• [Psa 2:12] Maker And Sov’reign Lord

  Maker and sov’reign Lord Of Heav’n, and earth, and seas, Thy providence confirms Thy Word, And answers Thy decrees. The things so long foretold By David are fulfilled, When Jews and Gentiles join’d to slay Jesus, Thine holy Child. Why did the Gentiles rage, And Jews, with one accord, Bend all their counsels to destroy Th’Anointed of the Lord? Rulers and kings agree To form a vain design; Against the Lord their powers unite Against His Christ they join. The Lord derides their rage, And will support His throne; He that hath rais’d Him from the dead Hath own’d Him for His Son. Now He’s ascended high, And asks to rule the earth; The merit of His blood He pleads, And pleads His heav’nly birth. He asks, and God bestows A large inheritance; Far as the world’s remotest ends His kingdom shall advance. The nations that rebel Must feel His iron rod; He’ll vindicate those honors well Which He receiv’d from God. Be wise, ye rulers, now, And worship at His throne; With trembling joy, ye people, bow To God’s exalted Son. If once His wrath arise, Ye perish on the place; Then blessèd is the soul that flies For refuge to His grace.

Psalms 40:3

• [Psa 40:3] He Keeps Me Singing

  There’s within my heart a melody Jesus whispers sweet and low, Fear not, I am with thee, peace, be still, In all of life’s ebb and flow. Refrain Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Sweetest Name I know, Fills my every longing, Keeps me singing as I go. All my life was wrecked by sin and strife, Discord filled my heart with pain, Jesus swept across the broken strings, Stirred the slumbering chords again. Refrain Feasting on the riches of His grace, Resting ’neath His sheltering wing, Always looking on His smiling face, That is why I shout and sing. Refrain Though sometimes He leads through waters deep, Trials fall across the way, Though sometimes the path seems rough and steep, See His footprints all the way. Refrain Soon He’s coming back to welcome me, Far beyond the starry sky; I shall wing my flight to worlds unknown, I shall reign with Him on high. Refrain

• [Psa 40:3] Wonderful, Wonderful Jesus

  There is never a day so dreary, There is never a night so long, But the soul that is trusting in Jesus Will somewhere find a song. Refrain Wonderful, wonderful Jesus, In the heart He implanteth a song: A song of deliverance, of courage, of strength, In the heart He implanteth a song. There is never a cross so heavy, There is never a weight of woe, But that Jesus will help to carry Because He loveth so. Refrain There is never a care or burden, There is never a grief or loss, But that Jesus in love will lighten When carried to the cross. Refrain There is never a guilty sinner, There is never a wandering one, But that God can in mercy pardon Through Jesus Christ, His Son. Refrain

Psalms 72:17

• [Psa 72:17] Again Thy Glorious Sun Doth Rise

  Again thy glorious sun doth rise, I praise Thee, O my Lord; With courage, strength, and hope renewed, I touch the joyful chord. On good and evil, Lord, Thy sun Is rising as on me; Let me in patience and in love Seek thus to be like Thee. May I in virtue and in faith, And with Thy gifts content; Rejoice beneath Thy covering wings, Each day in mercy sent. Safe with Thy counsel in my work, Thee, Lord, I’ll keep in view, And feel that still Thy bounteous grace Is every morning new.
