Lyrics: 1 My God, what silkin cords are thine! How soft, and yet how strong! While power, and truth, and love combine To draw our souls along. 2 Thou saw'st us crush'd beneath the yoke Of satan and of sin: Thy hand the iron bondage broke, Our worthless hearts to win. 3 The guilt of twice ten thousand sins One moment takes away; And grace, when first the war begins, Secures the crowning day. 4 Comfort thro' all this vale of tears In rich profusion flows, And glory of unnumber'd years Eternity bestows. 5 Drawn by such cords we onward move, 'Till round thy throne we meet; And, captives in the chains of love, Embrace our conqueror's feet. Scripture: Hosea 9:4

Awake, my voice, in heav'nly lays Tell the loud wonders he hath done. Sing how he left the worlds of light, And the bright robes he wore above; How swift and joyful was his flight, On wings of everlasting love! [Down to this base, this sinful earth, He came to raise our nature high; He came t' atone Almighty wrath; Jesus, the God, was born to die.] [Hell and its lions roared around, His precious blood the monsters spilt; While weighty sorrows pressed him down, Large as the loads of all our guilt.] Deep in the shades of gloomy death Th' almighty Captive pris'ner lay, Th' almighty Captive left the earth, And rose to everlasting day. Lift up your eyes, ye sons of light, Up to his throne of shining grace; See what immortal glories sit Round the sweet beauties of his face! Amongst a thousand harps and songs, Jesus, the God, exalted reigns; His sacred name fills all their tongues, And echoes through the heav'nly plains. Scripture: Psalm 19

Give thanks to Him and utter His praises far and wide. 3 The heavens with clouds He covers, He sends the cheering rain; The slopes of all the mountains He fills with grass and grain; To beast and bird His goodness their daily food supplies; He cares for all His creatures, Attentive to their cries. 4 No human power delights Him, No earthly pomp or pride; He loves the meek who fear Him and in His love confide; Then praise thy God, O Zion, His gracious aid confess; He gives thee peace and plenty, His gifts thy children bless. 5 He sends His swift commandment, And snow and ice enfold The world, and none are able To stand before His cold. Again He gives commandment; The winds of summer blow, The snow and ice are melted, Again the waters flow. 6 His statutes and His judgments He makes His people know; To them as to no others His grace He loves to show; For matchless grace and mercy Your grateful praises bring; To Him give thanks forever, And Hallelujah sing.
