Psalms 20:9

• [Psa 20:9] Father, Hear Thy Children’s Call

  Father, hear Thy children’s call; Humbly at Thy feet we fall, Prodigals, confessing all: We beseech Thee, hear us. Christ, beneath Thy cross we blame All our life of sin and shame, Penitent, we breathe Thy Name: We beseech Thee, hear us. Holy Spirit, grieved and tried, Oft forgotten and defied, Now we mourn our stubborn pride: We beseech Thee, hear us. Love that caused us first to be, Love that bled upon the tree, Love that draws us lovingly: We beseech Thee, hear us. We Thy call have disobeyed, Into paths of sin have strayed, And repentance have delayed: We beseech Thee, hear us. Sick, we come to Thee for cure, Guilty, seek Thy mercy sure, Evil, long to be made pure: We beseech Thee, hear us. Blind, we pray that we may see, Bound, we pray to be made free, Stained, we pray for sanctity: We beseech Thee, hear us. Thou Who hear’st each contrite sigh, Bidding sinful souls draw nigh, Willing not that one should die, We beseech Thee, hear us. By the love that bids Thee spare, By the Heav’n Thou dost prepare, By Thy promises to prayer, We beseech Thee, hear us.

  God the Father, God the Son, God the Spirit, Three in One, Hear us from Thy heavenly throne, Spare us, Holy Trinity. Jesu, Life of those who die, Advocate with God on high, Hope of immortality, Hear us, holy Jesu. Thou Whose death to mortals gave Power to triumph o’er the grave, Living now from death to save, Hear us, holy Jesu. Thou before Whose great white throne All our doings must be shown, Pleading now for us Thine own, Hear us, holy Jesu. Thou Whose death was borne that we, From the power of Satan free, Might not die eternally, Hear us, holy Jesu. Thou Who dost a place prepare, That in heavenly mansions fair Sinners may Thy glory share Hear us, holy Jesu. We are dying day by day, Soon from earth we pass away; Lord of Life, to Thee we pray: Hear us, holy Jesu. Ere we hear the angel’s call, And the shadows round us fall, Be our Savior, be our all; Hear us, holy Jesu. Wean our hearts from things below, Make us all Thy love to know, Guard from our ghostly foe: Hear us, holy Jesu. Shelter us with angel’s wing, To our souls Thy pardon bring; So shall death have lost its sting: Hear us, holy Jesu. In the gloom Thy light provide; Safely through the valley guide; Thee we trust, for Thou hast died; Hear us, holy Jesu. When Thy summons we obey On the dreadful Judgment Day, Let not fear our souls dismay: Hear us, holy Jesu. While the lost in terror fly, May we see with joyful eye Our redemption drawing nigh: Hear us, holy Jesu. May we see Thee on Thy throne As the Savior we have known, And have followed as our own: Hear us, holy Jesu. May we then, among the blest Who Thy Name on earth confessed, Hear Thee calling us to rest, Hear us, holy Jesu. From the awful place of doom, Where in rayless outer gloom Dead souls lie as in a tomb, Save us, holy Jesu. From the black, the dull despair Ruined men and angels share, From the dread companions there, Save us, holy Jesu. From the unknown agonies Of the soul that helpless lies, From the worm that never dies, Save us, holy Jesu. From the lusts that none can tame, From the fierce mysterious flame, From the everlasting shame, Save us, holy Jesu. Where Thy saints in glory reign, Free from sorrow, free from pain, Pure from every guilty stain, Bring us, holy Jesu. Where the captives find release, Where all foes from troubling cease, Where the weary rest in peace, Bring us, holy Jesu. Where the pleasures never cloy, Where in angels’ holy joy Thy redeemed their powers employ, Bring us, holy Jesu. Where in wondrous light are shown All Thy dealings with Thine own, Who shall know as they are known, Bring us, holy Jesu. Where, with loved ones gone before, We may love Thee and adore In Thy presence evermore, Bring us, holy Jesu.

• [Psa 24:8] Hail Him The King Of Glory

  Tell it to every kindred and nation, Tell it far and near; Earth’s darkest night will fade with the dawning, Jesus will soon appear. Refrain Hail Him the King of glory, Once the Lamb for sinners slain; Tell, tell the wondrous story, “Jesus comes to reign.” Nations again in strife and commotion, Warnings by the way; Signs in the heavens, unerring omens, Herald the glorious day. Refrain Children of God look up with rejoicing; Shout and sing His praise; Blessèd are they who, waiting and watching, Look for the dawning rays. Refrain

Psalms 45:11

• [Psa 45:11] O Royal Bride, Give Heed

  O royal bride, give heed, And to my words attend; For Christ the King forsake the world And every former friend. Thy beauty and thy grace Shall then delight the King; He only is thy rightful Lord, To Him thy worship bring. To thee, since thou art His, Great honor shall be shown; The rich shall bring their gifts to thee, Thy glory they shall own. Enthroned in royal state, All glorious thou shalt dwell, With garments fair, inwrought with gold; The Church He loveth well. And they that honor thee Shall in thy train attend, And to the palace of the King Shall joyfully ascend. O King of royal race, Thy sons of heavenly birth, Thou wilt endow with kingly gifts As princes in the earth. Thy Name shall be proclaimed Through all succeeding days, And all the nations of the earth Shall give Thee endless praise.

Psalms 68:24

• [Psa 68:24] My God, My King, Thy Praise I Sing

  My God, my King, Thy praise I sing, My heart is all Thine own; My highest powers, my choicest hours, I yield to Thee alone. My voice awake, thy part to take; My soul, the concert join; Till all around shall catch the sound, And mix their hymns with mine. But man is weak Thy praise to speak; Your God, ye angels, sing; ’Tis yours to see, more near than we, The glories of our King. His truth and grace fill time and space; As large His honors be Till all that live their homage give And praise my God with me.

Psalms 97:9

• [Psa 97:9] O God, Thou High And Lofty One

  O God, Thou high and lofty One, Transcending all the rolling spheres, Who wast, and art, and art to come, The same through everlasting years. Thee would we worship and adore, Thy Name extol forevermore. Thou art the Framer of the skies; The heav’ns Thy glory do declare; And nature’s wondrous mysteries, In earth and sky and sea and air, Thy immanence fore’er proclaim Throughout her universal frame. To all Thy works thy power extends; Omnipotent we know Thou art; Thy wisdom matchless comprehends The universe in every part: Past, present, future, unto Thee Are known—one vast eternity. Thou art Thyself in every place, Infinite Life and Light and Love, Confined to neither time nor space; None from Thy presence can remove, Nor any soul hide aught from Thee, Whose presence fills immensity. Prostrate before Thy throne we fall, With reverence worship and adore; Thou art Jehovah, over all, God blessèd now and evermore; Unworthy we to lisp thy Name, Yet justly Thou our praise dost claim. Search Thou our hearts, try all within; Our hearts are open, Lord, to Thee; And if Thou seest aught unclean, From its defilement set us free; Then lead us forth from day to day Within the everlasting way.

  Above the clear blue sky, In Heaven’s bright abode, The angel host on high Sing praises to their God; Alleluia! They love to sing Alleluia! They love to sing To God their King Alleluia! But God from infant tongues On earth receiveth praise; We then our cheerful songs In sweet accord will raise: Alleluia! We too will sing Alleluia! We too will sing To God our King Alleluia! O blessèd Lord, Thy truth To all Thy flock impart, And teach us in our youth To know Thee as Thou art. Alleluia! Then shall we sing Alleluia! Then shall we sing To God our King Alleluia! O, may Thy holy Word Spread all the world around! And all with one accord Uplift the joyful sound: Alleluia! All then shall sing Alleluia! All then shall sing To God their King Alleluia!

  Above yon clear blue sky, Beyond our feeble sight, The God of glory dwells on high In everlasting light. Around His glorious throne The holy angels stand; In songs of praise their King they own, Or fly at His command. And we may praise Him, too, And serve Him here below; He stoops to mark what children do, Their inmost thoughts to know; And though He reigns above, Where angels ceaseless praise, He will accept our humble love, And lead us in His ways. O may we humbly seek To do His holy will, And try, with thankful hearts and meek, To sing His praises still; And then for Jesus’ sake, Who came for us to die, Our happy spirits He will take To praise Him in the sky.

Psalms 107:11

• [Psa 107:11] Rebels, Who Had Dared To Show

  Rebels, who had dared to show Proud contempt of God Most High Bound in iron and in woe, Shades of death and darkness nigh, Humbled low with toil and pain, Fell, and looked for help in vain. To Jehovah when they cried In their trouble, and He saved, Threw the prison open wide Where they lay to death enslaved, Bade the gloomy shadows flee, Broke their bonds and set them free. Sons of men, awake to praise God the Lord Who reigns above, Gracious in His works and ways, Wondrous in redeeming love; Longing souls He satisfies, Hungry hearts with good supplies. When His righteous judgments come, Strong to bless and to destroy, All iniquity is dumb, All the righteous sing for joy; Who God’s dealings wisely heed, In His works His mercy read.

  Before the Lord we bow, the God Who reigns above, And rules the world below, boundless in power and love. Our thanks we bring in joy and praise, our hearts we raise To Heaven’s high King. The nation Thou hast blest may well Thy love declare, From foes and fears at rest, protected by Thy care. For this fair land, for this bright day, our thanks we pay, Gifts of Thy hand. May every mountain height, each vale and forest green, Shine in Thy Word’s pure light, and its rich fruits be seen! May every tongue be tuned to praise, and join to raise A grateful song. Earth, hear thy Maker’s voice, thy great Redeemer own; Believe, obey, rejoice, and worship Him alone. Cast down thy pride, thy sin deplore and bow before The Crucified. And when in power He comes, O may our native land, From all its rending tombs, send forth a glorious band. A countless throng, ever to sing to Heaven’s high King Salvation’s song.

  O Lord, Thou art my God and King; Thee will I magnify and praise: I will Thee bless, and gladly sing Unto Thy holy Name always. Each day I rise I will Thee bless, And praise Thy Name time without end. Much to be praised, and great God is; His greatness none can comprehend. Race shall Thy works praise unto race, The mighty acts show done by Thee. I will speak of the glorious grace, And honor of Thy majesty; Thy wondrous works I will record. By men the might shall be extolled Of all Thy dreadful acts, O Lord: And I Thy greatness will unfold. They utter shall abundantly The memory of Thy goodness great; And shall sing praises cheerfully, Whilst they Thy righteousness relate. The Lord our God is gracious, Compassionate is He also; In mercy He is plenteous, But unto wrath and anger slow. Good unto all men is the Lord: O’er all His works His mercy is. Thy works all praise to Thee afford: Thy saints, O Lord, Thy Name shall bless. The glory of Thy kingdom show Shall they, and of Thy power tell: That so men’s sons His deeds may know, His kingdom’s grace that doth excel. Thy kingdom hath none end at all, It doth through ages all remain. The Lord upholdeth all that fall, The cast-down raiseth up again. The eyes of all things, Lord, attend, And on Thee wait that here do live, And Thou, in season due, dost send Sufficient food them to relieve. Yea, Thou Thine hand dost open wide, And every thing dost satisfy That lives, and doth on earth abide, Of Thy great liberality. The Lord is just in His ways all, And holy in His works each one. He’s near to all that on Him call, Who call in truth on Him alone. God will the just desire fulfill Of such as do Him fear and dread: Their cry regard, and hear He will, And save them in the time of need. The Lord preserves all, more and less, That bear to Him a loving heart: But workers all of wickedness Destroy will He, and clean subvert. Therefore my mouth and lips I’ll frame To speak the praises of the Lord: To magnify His holy Name For ever let all flesh accord.

  Savior, again to Thy dear Name we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise; We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease; Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word of peace. Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way; With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day. Guard thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shame, That in this house have called upon Thy Name. Grant us Thy peace, through this approaching night; Turn Thou for us its darkness into light; From harm and danger keep Thy children free, For dark and light are both alike to Thee. Grant us Thy peace—the peace Thou didst bestow On Thine Apostles in Thine hour of woe; The peace Thou broughtest, when at eventide They saw Thy piercèd hands, Thy wounded side. Grant us Thy peace throughout our earthly life; Peace to Thy church from error and from strife; Peace to our land, the fruit of truth and love; Peace in each heart, Thy Spirit from above.

Father, once more before we part, we raise With one accord our parting hymn of praise: Once more we bless Thee, ere our songs shall cease, Then, lowly kneeling, pray Thee for Thy peace.
