Psalm 72 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.155 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: Great God, whose universal sway Lyrics: Great God, whose universal sway The known and unknown worlds obey, Now give the kingdom to thy Son, Extend his power, exalt his throne. Thy sceptre well becomes his hands, All heav'n submits to his commands; His justice shall avenge the poor, And pride and rage prevail no more. With power be vindicates the just, And treads th' oppressor in the dust; His worship and his fear shall last, Till hours, and years, and time be past. As rain on meadows newly mown, So shall he send his influence down; His grace on fainting souls distils, Like heav'nly dew on thirsty hills. The heathen lands that lie beneath The shades of overspreading death, Revive at his first dawning light, And deserts blossom at the sight. The saints shall flourish in his days, Dressed in the robes of joy and praise Peace, like a river from his throne, Shall flow to nations yet unknown. Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English

Psalm 21

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.49 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: David rejoiced in God his strength Lyrics: David rejoiced in God his strength, Raised to the throne by special grace; But Christ the Son appears at length, Fulfils the triumph and the praise. How great is the Messiah's joy In the salvation of thy hand! Lord, thou hast raised his kingdom high, And giv'n the world to his command. Thy goodness grants whate'er he will, Nor doth the least request withhold; Blessings of love prevent him still, And crowns of glory, not of gold. Honor and majesty divine Around his sacred temples shine; Blest with the favor of thy face, And length of everlasting days. Thine hand shall find out all his foes; And as a fiery oven glows With raging heat and living coals, So shall thy wrath devour their souls. Scripture: Psalm 21 Languages: English

Psalm 72 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.156 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Lyrics: Jesus shall reign where'er the sun Does his successive journeys run; His kingdom stretch from shore to shore, Till moons shall wax and wane no more. [Behold the islands with their kings, And Europe her best tribute brings; From north to south the princes meet, To pay their homage at his feet. There Persia, glorious to behold, There India shines in eastern gold; And barb'rous nations at his word Submit, and bow, and own their Lord.] For him shall endless prayer be made, And praises throng to crown his head; His name like sweet perfume shall rise With every morning sacrifice. People and realms of every tongue Dwell on his love with sweetest song; And infant voices shall proclaim Their early blessings on his name. Blessings abound where'er he reigns, The pris'ner leaps to lose his chains; The weary find eternal rest, And all the sons of want are blest. [Where he displays his healing power Death and the curse are known no more; In him the tribes of Adam boast More blessings than their father lost. Let every creature rise and bring Peculiar honors to our King; Angels descend with songs again, And earth repeat the long Amen.] Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English

I hate the tempter and his charms

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #92 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: I hate the tempter and his charms, I hate his flatt'ring breath; The serpent takes a thousand forms To cheat our souls to death. He feeds our hopes with airy dreams, Or kills with slavish fear; And holds us still in wide extremes, Presumption or despair. Now he persuades, "How easy 'tis To walk the road to heav'n;" Anon he swells our sins, and cries, "They cannot be forgiv'n." [He bids young sinners "yet forbear To think of God, or death; For prayer and devotion are But melancholy breath." He tells the aged, "they must die, "And 'tis too late to pray; In vain for mercy now they cry, For they have lost their day."] Thus he supports his cruel throne By mischief and deceit, And drags the sons of Adam down To darkness and the pit. Almighty God, cut short his power, Let him in darkness dwell And that he vex the earth no more, Confine him down to hell. Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English

Psalm 21

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.48 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom First Line: The king, O Lord, with songs of praise Lyrics: The king, O Lord, with songs of praise, Shall in thy strength rejoice; And, blest with thy salvation, raise To heav'n his cheerful voice. Thy sure defence through nations round Has spread his glorious name; And his successful actions crowned With majesty and fame. Then let the king on God alone For timely aid rely; His mercy shall support the throne, And all our wants supply. But, righteous Lord, his stubborn foes Shall feel thy dreadful hand; Thy vengeful arm shall find out those That hate his mild command. When thou against them dost engage, Thy just but dreadful doom Shall, like a fiery oven's rage, Their hopes and them consume. Thus, Lord, thy wondrous power declare, And thus exalt thy fame; Whilst we glad songs of praise prepare For thine almighty name. Scripture: Psalm 21 Languages: English

Lo! the destroying angel flies

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #143 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: Lo, the destroying angel flies To Pharaoh's stubborn land; The pride and flower of Egypt dies By his vindictive hand. He passed the tents of Jacob o'er, Nor poured the wrath divine; He saw the blood on every door, And blessed the peaceful sign. Thus the appointed Lamb must bleed, To break the Egyptian yoke; Thus Isr'el is from bondage freed, And 'scapes the angel's stroke. Lord, if my heart were sprinkled too With blood so rich as thine, Justice no longer would pursue This guilty soul of mine. Jesus our passover was slain, And has at once procured Freedom from Satan's heavy chain, And God's avenging sword. Scripture: Psalm 72 Languages: English

Now let our Lips with holy Fear

While to his heav'nly Father's Ear He sends perpetual Cries. 3 "Hear me, O Lord, and save thy Son, "Nor hide thy shining Face; "Why should thy Fav'rite look like one "Forsaken of thy Grace? 4 "With Rage they persecute the Man "That groans beneath thy Wound, "While for a Sacrifice I pour "My Life upon the Ground. 5 "They tread my Honour to the Dust, "And laugh when I complain; "Their sharp insulting Slanders add "Fresh Anguish to my Pain. 6 "All my Reproach is known to Thee, "The Scandal and the Shame; "Reproach has broke my bleeding Heart, "And Lies defil'd my Name. 7 "I look'd for Pity, but in vain; "My Kindred are my Grief; "I ask my Friends for Comfort round, "But meet with no Relief. 8 "With Vinegar they mock my Thirst, "They give me Gall for Food, "And sporting with my dying Groans, "They triumph in my Blood. 9 "Shine into my distressed Soul, "Let thy Compassion save; "And though my Flesh sink down to Death, "Redeem it from the Grave. 10 "I shall arise to praise thy Name, "Shall reign in Worlds unknown, "And thy Salvation, O my GOD, "Shall seat me on thy Throne." Scripture: Psalm 69:14-21 Languages: English

'Twas for my Sake, eternal GOD

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P69e (1766) Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the Kingdom Lyrics: 1 'Twas for my Sake, eternal GOD, Thy Son sustain'd that heavy Load Of base Reproach and sore Disgrace, And Shame defil'd his sacred Face. 2 The Jews, his Brethren and his Kin, Abus'd the Man that check'd their Sin: While he fulfill'd thy holy Laws That hate him, but without a Cause. 3 [My Father's House, said he, was made, A Place for Worship, not for Trade: Then scatt'ring all their Gold and Brass, He scourg'd the Merchants from the Place.] 4 [Zeal for the Temple of his GOD, Consum'd his Life, expos'd his Blood; Reproaches at thy Glory thrown He felt, and mourn'd 'em as his own.] 5 [His Friends forsook, his Followers fled, While Foes and Arms surround his Head; They curse him with a slad'rous Tongue, And the false Judge maintains the Wrong.] 6 His Life they load with hateful Lies, And charge his Lips with Blasphemies; They nail him to the shameful Tree; There hung the Man that dy'd for me. 7 [Wretches, with Hearts as hard as Stones, Insult his Piety and Groans; Gall was the Food they gave him there, And mock'd his Thirst with Vinegar.] 8 But GOD beheld; and from his Throne Marks out the Men that hate his Son; The Hand that rais'd him from the Dead, Shall pour the Vengeance on their Head. Scripture: Psalm 69:7-36
