All things that creep or fly, 11 kings, tribes of every tongue, all princes mean or high, 12 both men and virgins young; even young and old, 13 exalt his name; for much his fame should be extolled. Jehovah's name be praised above both earth and sky; 14 for he his saints hath raised, and set their horn on high: even those that be of Israel's race, near to his grace; the Lord praise ye.

Author: Isaac Watts (1674-1748) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 343 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Join all the glorious names of wisdom, love, and power, that mortals ever knew, that angels ever bore: all are too mean to speak his worth, too mean to set my Saviour forth. 2 Great Prophet of my God, my tongue would bless your name; by you the joyful news of our salvation came: the joyful news of sins forgiven, of hell subdued, and peace with heaven. 3 Jesus, my great High Priest, offered his blood and died; my guilty conscience seeks no sacrifice beside; his powerful blood did once atone, and now it pleads before the throne. 4 My dear Almighty Lord, my Conqueror and my King, your sceptre and your sword, your reigning grace, I sing: yours is the power: behold I sit in willing service at your feet. 5 Now let my soul arise, and tread the tempter down: my Captain leads me forth to conquest and a crown: a feeble saint shall win the day, though death and hell obstruct the way.

Thou art the Christ, O Lord

Author: W. Walsham How, 1823-97 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 22 hymnals Lyrics: 1 'Thou art the Christ, O Lord, The Son of God, most high!' For ever be adored That name in earth and sky, In which, though mortal strength may fail, The saints of God at last prevail. 2 O surely he was blest With blessedness unpriced, Who, taught of God, confessed The Godhead in the Christ; For of thy Church, Lord, thou didst own Thy saint a true foundation-stone. 3 Thrice fallen, thrice restored, The bitter lesson learnt, That heart for thee, O Lord, With triple ardor burnt. The cross he took he laid not down Until he grasped the martyr's crown. 4 O bright triumphant faith, O courage void of fears, O love most strong in death, O penitential tears! By these, Lord, keep us lest we fall, And make us go where thou shalt call. Topics: St. Peter; The Christian Year Festivals and Other Holy Days: Proper Used With Tune: CROFT'S 136TH
