All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name
No war nor battle's sound
Author: Dwight Appears in 59 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation At Peace Lyrics: 1 No war nor battle's sound
Was heard the earth around--
No hostile chiefs to furious combat ran;
But peaceful was the night
In which the Prince of Light
His reign of peace upon the earth began.
2 No conqueror's sword he bore,
Nor warlike armor wore,
Nor haughty passions roused to contest wild;
In peace and love he came,
And gentle was the reign
Which o'er the earth he spread by influence mild.
3 Unwilling kings obeyed,
And sheathed the battle-blade,
And called their bloody legions from the field;
In silent awe they wait,
And close the warrior's gate,
Nor know to whom their homage thus they yield.
4 The peaceful Conqueror goes,
And triumphs o'er his foes,
His weapons drawn from armories above;
Behold the vanquished sit
Submissive at his feet,
And strike and hate are changed to peace and love.
No war nor battle's sound

Manifold Mercies
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Topics: Nations Ultimate Subjection of First Line: God saved His people from distress Lyrics: 1 God saved His people from distress
And led them thro' the wilderness;
Then mountains trembled in their place,
The heav'ns were bowed before His face.
2 With copious show'rs Thou didst assuage
The thirsting of Thy heritage,
Thy congregation dwelt secure;
Thou, God, art gracious to the poor.
3 The Lord sent forth His mighty word,
And shouts of victory were heard;
The women came, a mighty throng,
To join the glad triumphant song.
4 When God His chosen people led,
The kings and armies turned and fled;
The hosts of God victorious fought,
And home their spoils and trophies bro't.
5 God's people rested, free from care,
In glorious peace and beauty fair;
Their mighty King did overthrow
The hostile kings like driven snow.
6 All mountains unto God belong,
But Zion's holy mountains strong
Above them all the Lord loves well,
And there He will forever dwell.
7 Great hosts to holy wars have trod,
The armies of the living God;
Among them He reveals His face,
The God of justice and of grace.
8 Thou hast ascended up on high
And captive led captivity;
They come with gifts, who did rebel,
That with them God the Lord might dwell. Scripture: Psalm 68 Used With Tune: JUNIATA

God of our fathers, Who didst guide
Author: G. A. Warburton Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: National Lyrics: 1 God of our fathers, Who didst guide
O'er pathless seas and oceans wide,
To these fair shores, thy servants' way,
To Thee our debts of praise we pay.
2 In the perils of the land and sea,
Our fathers were upheld by Thee;
And every passing year has brought
Its tokens of Thy loving thought.
3 Thou knowest how with faith sublime,
They fought for freedom in their time;
Their courage fed by heavenly flame,
Their talisman Thy holy name.
4 Great God, our fathers' God, defend
Our land from all her foes, and send
On us, Thy servants, streams of grace,
And guide our feet in paths of peace.
God of our fathers, Who didst guide
Religious Toleration ought to be defended by Our Rulers
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 50 hymnals Topics: Special Occasions Public and National Blessings and Afflictions First Line: Absurd and vain attempt! to bind Lyrics: 1 Absurd and vain attempt! to bind
With iron chains the free-born mind,
To force conviction, and reclaim
The wand'ring by destructive flame.
2 Bold arrogance! to snatch from heaven
Dominion not to mortals given;
O'er conscience to usurp the throne,
Accountable to God alone.
3 Jesus! thy gentle law of love
Does no such cruelties approve;
Mild as thy self, thy doctrine wields
No arms but what persuasion yields.
4 By proofs divine, and reason strong,
It draws the willing soul along;
And conquests to thy church acquires
By eloquence which heaven inspires.
5 O happy, who are thus compell'd
To the rich feast, by Jesus held!
May we this blessing know, and prize
The light which liberty supplies.
