Lift Every Voice and Sing
Author: James W. Johnson, 1871-1938 Meter: 6.6.10.6.6.10.14.14.6.6.10 Appears in 48 hymnals Scripture: Nehemiah 9 Lyrics: 1 Lift every voice and sing till earth and heaven ring,
ring with the harmonies of liberty;
let our rejoicing rise, high as the listening skies,
let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
let us march on till victory is won.
2 Stony the road we trod, bitter the chastening rod,
felt in the days when hope unborn had died;
yet with a steady beat, have not our weary feet
come to the place for which our people sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered;
we have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered,
out from the gloomy past, till now we stand at last
where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.
3 God of our weary years, God of our silent tears,
thou who hast brought us thus far on the way;
thou who hast, by thy might, led us into the light,
keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met thee,
lest, our hearts drunk with the wine of the world, we forget thee;
shadowed beneath thy hand, may we forever stand,
true to our God, true to our native land. Topics: Covenant Faithfulness; Freedom; God Ways Of; Hope; Music and Singing Used With Tune: ANTHEM

Stand Up and Bless the Lord
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 395 hymnals Scripture: Nehemiah 9:5 Lyrics: 1 Stand up and bless the Lord,
Ye people of God's choice;
Stand up and bless the Lord your God
With heart and soul and voice.
2 Though high above all praise,
Above all blessing high,
Who would not fear God's holy name,
And laud and magnify?
3 O for the living flame
From God's own altar brought,
To touch our lips, our minds inspire,
And wing to heaven our thought!
4 God is our strength and song,
Now is salvation ours;
Then be God's love in Christ proclaimed
With all our ransomed powers.
5 Stand up and bless the Lord;
The Lord your God adore;
Stand up and bless God's glorious name;
Henceforth forevermore.

Thanksgiving
Author: Mrs. Anna L. Barbauld Appears in 600 hymnals Scripture: Nehemiah 9:5 First Line: Praise to God, immortal praise Lyrics: 1 Praise to God, immortal praise,
For the love that crowns our days!
Bounteous Source of every joy,
Let thy praise our tongues employ.
For the blessings of the field,
For the stores the gardens yield;
For the fruits in fall supply,
Ripened 'neath the summer sky;--
2 All that spring with bounteous hand
Scatters o'er the smiling land;
All that liberal autumn pours
From her rich, o'erflowing stores;
These to thee, my God, we owe,
Source whence all our blessings flow;
And for these my soul shall raise
Grateful vows and solemn praise. Topics: Autumn Used With Tune: BENEVENTO

Nature's King
Author: Josiah Conder Appears in 36 hymnals Scripture: Nehemiah 9:5 First Line: Oh, give thanks to Him who made Lyrics: 1 Oh, give thanks to him who made
Morning light and evening shade;
Source and giver of all good,
Nightly sleep and daily food;
Quickener of our wearied powers;
Guard of our unconscious hours.
2 Oh, give thanks to nature's King,
Who made every breathing thing:
His, our warm and sentient frame,
His, the mind's immortal flame.
Oh, how close the ties that bind
Spirits to the Eternal Mind!
3 Oh, give thanks with heart and lip,
For we are his workmanship;
And all creatures are his care:
Not a bird that cleaves the air
Falls unnoticed; but who can
Speak the Father's love to man?
4 Oh, give thanks to him who came
In a mortal, suffering frame--
Temple of the Deity--
Came, for rebel man to die;
In the path himself hath trod,
Leading back his saints to God. Topics: God: The Father Used With Tune: DIX
