Exalt the LORD, His Praise Proclaim

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Exalt the LORD, his praise proclaim; all you his servants, praise his name, who in the LORD's house ever stand and humbly serve at his command. The LORD is good, his praise proclaim; since it is pleasant, praise his name. His people for his own he takes and his own special treasure makes. 2 I know the LORD is high in state; above all gods our Lord is great. The LORD performs what he decrees, in heaven and earth, in depths and seas. He makes the vapors to ascend in clouds from earth's remotest end; the lightnings flash at his command; he holds the tempest in his hand. 3 Exalt the LORD, his praise proclaim; all you his servants, praise his name, who in the LORD's house ever stand and humbly serve at his command. Forever praise and bless his name, and in the church his praise proclaim. In Zion is his dwelling place; O praise the LORD, show forth his grace.

Thy Glory, Lord, The Heavens Declare

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 43 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thy glory, Lord, the heavens declare, The firmament displays Thy skill; The changing clouds, the viewless air, Tempest and calm Thy word fulfill; Day unto day doth utter speech, And night to night Thy knowledge teach. 2 Though voice nor sound inform the ear, Well known the language of their song, When one by one the stars appear, Led by the silent moon along, Till round the earth, from all the sky, Thy beauty beams on every eye. 3 Waked by Thy touch, the morning sun Comes like a bridegroom from his bower, And, like a giant, glad to run His bright career with speed and power— Thy flaming messenger, to dart Life through the depth of Nature’s heart. 4 While these transporting visions shine Along the path of Providence, Glory eternal, joy divine, Thy word reveals, transcending sense— My soul Thy goodness longs to see, Thy love to man, Thy love to me.

God's Glory Fills the Heavens

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr., b. 1944 Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 9 hymnals First Line: God's glory fills the heavens with hymns Lyrics: 1 God’s glory fills the heavens with hymns; the domed sky bears the Maker’s mark. New praises sound from day to day and echo through the knowing dark. Without a word their songs roll on; into all lands their voices run. And with a champion’s strength and grace from farthest heaven comes forth the sun. 2 God’s perfect law revives the soul; its precepts make the simple wise. Its just commands rejoice the heart; its truth gives light unto the eyes. Forever shall this law endure: unblemished, righteous, true, complete. No gold we ever found so fine, no honey in the comb more sweet. 3 God’s servant may I ever be: this world my joy, that word my guide. O cleanse me, LORD, from secret sin; deliver me from selfish pride. Accept my thoughts and words and deeds; let them find favor in your sight. For you alone can make me whole, O LORD, my refuge and my might.

Creator Spirit, by whose aid

Author: J. Dryden, 1631-1701 Appears in 190 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Creator Spirit, by whose aid The world's foundations first were laid, Come visit every waiting mind, Come pour Thy joys on human kind; From sin and sorrow set us free, And make Thy temples worthy Thee. 2 O Source of uncreated heat, The Father's promised Paraclete! Thrice holy Fount, immortal Fire, Our hearts with heavenly love inspire: Come, and Thy sacred unction bring, To sanctify us while we sing. 3 Plenteous of grace, descend from high, Rich in Thy sevenfold energy! Thou strength of His almighty hand Whose power does heaven and earth command, Refine and purge our earthly parts, And stamp Thine image on our hearts. 4 Create all new, our wills control, Subdue the rebel in our soul; Chase from our minds the subtle foe, And peace, the fruit of faith, bestow; And, lest again we go astray, Protect and guide us in the way. 5 Immortal honours, endless fame, Attend the Almighty Father's name; The Saviour Son be glorified, Who for lost man's redemption died; And equal adoration be, Eternal Comforter, to Thee!
