Psalms 21:13

• [Psa 21:13] He Sang In The Old Church Choir

  ’Twas Easter Sunday morning, To the village I had gone; My boyhood home where lived the ones I loved; At the church the preacher spoke the Word, The choir sang sweetly, too, And in their midst an old man sang The old songs good and true; His voice was sweet and tender, I seem to hear him yet Sing again an old refrain I never will forget. Refrain How he sang in the old church choir Olden songs, golden songs of a bygone day, Sweet songs of gladness, songs, too, of sadness That carried me far, far away, And I longed in my soul for that heavenly goal That he sang of so sweetly in those songs: “Lead Kindly Light amid th’encircling gloom” And “Rock of Ages cleft for me.” Those were the songs, the old golden songs That he sang in the old church choir. So here’s a simple lesson Of the good that we can do To help our fellow men along the way; Just a word of cheer to those we meet May ease an aching heart, A song may save two souls that otherwise might drift apart. Still in my memr’y that lingers That singer and his song. Sweet and low, so long ago, To hear his voice I long. Refrain

Psalms 63:2

• [Psa 63:2] O God, Thy Power Is Wonderful

  O God, Thy power is wonderful, Thy glory passing bright; Thy wisdom, with its deep on deep, A rapture to the sight. I see Thee in the eternal years In glory all alone, Ere round Thine uncreated fires Created light had shone. I see Thee walk in Eden’s shade, I see Thee all through time; Thy patience and compassion seem New attributes sublime. I see Thee when the doom is o’er, And outworn time is done, Still, still incomprehensible, O God, yet not alone. Angelic spirits, countless souls, Of Thee have drunk their fill; And to eternity will drink Thy joy and glory still. O little heart of mine! shall pain Or sorrow make thee moan, When all this God is all for thee, A Father all thine own?

Psalms 65:6

• [Psa 65:6] Thy Might Sets Fast The Mountains

  Thy might sets fast the mountains; strength girds Thee evermore To calm the raging peoples and still the ocean’s roar. Thy majesty and greatness are through all lands confessed, And joy on earth Thou sendest afar, from east to west. To bless the earth Thou sendest from Thy abundant store The waters of the springtime, enriching it once more. The seed by Thee provided is sown over hill and plain, And Thou with gentle showers dost bless the springing grain. The year with good Thou crownest, the earth Thy mercy fills, The wilderness is fruitful, and joyful are the hills; With corn the vales are covered, the flocks in pastures graze; All nature joins in singing a joyful song of praise.

Psalms 147:5

• [Psa 147:5] Infinite God, To Thee We Raise

  Infinite God, to Thee we raise Our hearts in solemn songs of praise, By all Thy works on earth adored, We worship Thee, the common Lord; The everlasting Father own, And bow our souls before Thy throne. Thee all the choir of angels sings, The Lord of hosts, the King of kings; Cherubs proclaim Thy praise aloud, And seraphs shout the Triune God; And, “Holy, holy, holy,” cry, “Thy glory fills both earth and sky!” God of the patriarchal race, The ancient seers record Thy praise, The goodly apostolic band In highest joy and glory stand; And all the saints and prophets join To extol Thy majesty divine. Head of the martyrs’ noble host, Of Thee they justly make their boast; The church, to earth’s remotest bounds, Her heavenly Founder’s praise resounds; And strives, with those around the throne, To hymn the mystic Three in One. Father of endless majesty, All might and love they render Thee; Thy true and only Son adore, The same in dignity and power; And God the Holy Ghost declare, The saints’ eternal Comforter.
