When Israel out of Egypt went

Hymnal: TH1961 #39 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 When Israel out of Egypt went, From people of a speech unknown, The Lord among his people dwelt, And there he set his royal throne. 2 The sea beheld and fled away, The Jordan's waters backward turned, The lofty mountains and the hills With trembling awe our God discerned. 3 What aileth thee, O troubled sea? Thou Jordan, why thy riven tide? Ye mountains and ye little hills, Why thus dismayed on ev'ry side? 4 O tremble, earth, before the Lord, In presence of Jehovah fear, Beneath whose touch the flinty rock Became a fount of waters clear. Amen.

Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice

Hymnal: TH1961 #40 (1961) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice; It well becomes the good man's voice To sing Jehovah's praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, Your gift of sweetest music bring, To him a new song raise. 2 For upright is Jehovah's word; And all the doings of the Lord In faithfulness are wrought. In justice and in judgment right The Lord doth ever take delight; With goodness earth is fraught. 3 Jehovah's word the heav'ns hath made, And all the host of them arrayed His breath has caused to be. He rolls the waters heap on heap; He stores away the mighty deep In garners of the sea. 4 Let all the earth Jehovah fear, Let all that dwell both far and near In awe before him stand; For, lo, he spake and it was done, And all, his sovereign pow'r begun, Stood fast at his command. 5 He makes the nations' counsels vain, The plans the peoples would maintain Are thwarted by his hand. Jehovah's counsel stands secure, His purposes of heart endure, For evermore they stand. 6 O truly is the nation blessed Whose God, before the world confessed, Jehovah is alone; And blessed the people is whom he Has made his heritage to be, And chosen for his own. Amen.

O God, most holy are thy ways

Hymnal: TH1961 #41 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, most holy are thy ways, And who like thee deserves my praise? Thou only doest wondrous things, The whole wide world thy glory sings; Thine outstretched arm thy people saved, Though sore distressed and long enslaved. 2 O God, from thee the waters fled, The depths were moved with mighty dread, The swelling clouds their torrents poured, And o'er the earth the tempest roared; 'Mid light'ning's flash and thunder's sound Great trembling shook the solid ground. 3 Thy way was in the sea, O God, Through mighty waters, deep and broad; None understood but God alone, To man thy footsteps were unknown; But safe thy people thou didst keep, Almighty Shepherd of thy sheep.

Round the Lord in glory seated

Author: Richard Mant Hymnal: TH1961 #42 (1961) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 Round the Lord in glory seated, Cherubim and seraphim Filled his temple, and repeated Each to each the alternate hymn: "Lord thy glory fills the heaven, Earth is with its fulness stored; Unto thee be glory given, Holy, holy, holy Lord!" 2 Heav'n is still with glory ringing, Earth takes up the angels' cry, "Holy, holy, holy," singing, "Lord of Hosts, the Lord most high." With his seraph train before him, With his holy church below, Thus conspire we to adore him, Bid we thus our anthem flow: 3 "Lord, thy glory fills the heaven, Earth is with its fulness stored; Unto thee be glory given, Holy, holy, holy Lord!" Thus thy glorious Name confessing, We adopt thine angels' cry, "Holy, holy, holy," blessing Thee, the Lord of Hosts most high. Amen.

Fiercely then his vengeance flowed: He is holy; He is holy; To the dust their hearts were bowed. 4 But their Father God forgave them When they sought his face once more: Ever ready was to save them, Tenderly did he restore: He is holy; He is holy; We too will his grace implore.

O Lord, be thou my helper true

Hymnal: TH1961 #45 (1961) Meter: 8.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O Lord, be thou my helper true, For just and godly men are few; The faithful who can find? From truth and wisdom men depart, With flattering lips and double heart They speak their evil mind. 2 The lips that speak, the truth to hide, The tongues of arrogance and pride, That boastful words employ, False-speaking tongues that boast their might, That own no law, that know no right, Jehovah will destroy. 3 Because the poor are sore oppressed, Because the needy are distressed, And bitter are their cries, The Lord will be their helper strong; To save them from contempt and wrong Jehovah will arise. 4 Jehovah's promises are sure, His words are true, his words are pure As silver from the flame. Though base men walk on ev'ry side, His saints are safe, whate'er betide, Protected by his Name. Amen.

O Lord, thou Judge of all the earth

Hymnal: TH1961 #46 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, thou Judge of all the earth, To whom all vengeance doth belong, Arise and show thy glory forth, Requite the proud, condemn the wrong. 2 How long, O Lord, in boastful pride Shall wicked men triumphant stand? How long shall they afflict thy saints And scorn thy wrath, thy dreadful hand? 3 Be wise, ye fools and brutish men; Shall not he see who formed the eye? Shall not he hear who formed the ear, And judge, who reigneth, God most high? 4 The Lord will judge in righteousness, From him all truth and knowledge flow; The foolish thoughts of wicked men, How vain they are the Lord doth know. 5 That man is blest whom thou, O Lord, With chastening hand dost teach thy will, For in the day when sinners fall That man in peace abideth still. 6 Unless the Lord had been my Help, My life had quickly passed away; But when my foot had almost slipped, O Lord, thy mercy was my stay. 7 Amid the doubts that fill my mind Thy comforts, Lord, bring joy to me; Can wickedness, though throned in might, Have fellowship, O Lord, with thee? 8 The wicked, in their might arrayed, Against the righteous join their power, But to the Lord I flee for help, He is my Refuge and my Tower.

O Jehovah, hear my words

Hymnal: TH1961 #47 (1961) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 O Jehovah, hear my words, To my thoughts attentive be; Hear my cry, my King, my God, I will make my prayer to thee. With the morning light, O Lord, Thou shalt hear my voice arise, And expectant I will bring Prayer as morning sacrifice. 2 Thou, Jehovah, art a God Who delightest not in sin; Evil shall not dwell with thee, Nor the proud thy favor win. Evil doers thou dost hate, Lying tongues thou wilt defeat; God abhors the man who loves Violence and base deceit. 3 In the fulness of thy grace To thy house I will repair; Bowing toward thy holy place, In thy fear to worship there. Lead me in thy righteousness, Let my foes assail in vain; Lest my feet be turned aside, Make thy way before me plain. 4 False and faithless are my foes, In their mouth no truth is found; Deadly are the words they speak, All their thoughts with sin abound. Bring, O God, their plans to naught, Hold them guilty in thy sight, For against thee and thy law They have set themselves to fight. 5 O let all that trust thy care Ever glad and joyful be; Let them joy who love thy Name, Safely guarded, Lord, by thee. For a blessing from thy store To the righteous thou wilt yield; Thou wilt compass him about With thy favor as a shield. Amen.

My trust is in the Lord

Hymnal: TH1961 #48 (1961) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My trust is in the Lord: How say ye then to me, "Now like a bird from peril haste, And to your mountain flee?" 2 Lo, sinners bend the bow With arrow fixed for flight; And stealthily in darkness go The true in heart to smite. 3 What can the righteous do, What can for them avail, When all foundations are destroyed, And all the pillars fail? 4 The Lord in Zion dwells, The Lord is throned on high; His eyes behold the sons of men Their hearts and ways to try. 5 The Lord the righteous proves; But those who scorn the right, Who love deceit and violence Are hateful in his sight. 6 For righteous is the Lord, He loveth righteousness, And with a gracious countenance The upright he will bless.
