Psalm 8 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.17 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Christ exalted to the kingdom First Line: Almighty Ruler of the skies Lyrics: Almighty Ruler of the skies, Through the wide earth thy name is spread; And thine eternal glories rise O'er all the heav'ns thy hands have made. To thee the voices of the young A monument of honor raise; And babes, with uninstructed tongue, Declare the wonders of thy praise. Thy power assists their tender age To bring proud rebels to the ground, To still the bold blasphemer's rage, And all their policies confound. Children amidst thy temple throng To see their great Redeemer's face; The Son of David is their song, And young hosannas fill the place. The frowning scribes and angry priests In vain their impious cavils bring; Revenge sits silent in their breasts, While Jewish babes proclaim their King. Scripture: Psalm 8:1-2 Languages: English

Almighty Author of our frame

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #LXV (1789) Topics: General Forms of Praise and Thanksgiving God exalted above all Praise Lyrics: 1 Almighty Author of our frame, To thee our vital pow'rs belong; Thy praise, (delightful, glorious theme!) Demands our heart, our life, our tongue. 2 Our hearts, our lives, our tongues, are thine: O be thy praise their best employ! But may our songs with angels join, Nor sacred awe forbid the joy! 3 Thy glories, the seraphick lyre, On all its strings attempts in vain; Then how shall mortals dare aspire, In thought, to try th' unequal strain? 4 Yet the Sov'reign of the skies To mortals bends a gracious ear; Nor the mean tribute will despise, If offer'd with a heart sincere. 5 Great God, accept the humble praise, And guide our heart, and guide our tongue, While to thy name we trembling raise The grateful, though unworthy, song.

Before the awful throne we bow

Hymnal: A Collection of Psalms and Hymns for Publick Worship #LXVI (1789) Topics: General Forms of Praise and Thanksgiving God exalted above all Praise Lyrics: 1 Before the awful throne we bow Of heav'ns Eternal King; To him present the solemn vow, And hymns of praises sing. 2 How weak, great God, our nobles songs To magnify thy ways! Nor human nor angelick tongues Can shew forth all thy praise. 3 Yet be it now our chief delight Our feeble notes to join, Until with angels we unite In anthems more divine. 4 Nor from thy presence cast away The off'ring that we bring; Lord! teach our hearts aright to pray, And tune our lips to sing.

And wond'rous are thy Ways: Of Dust and Worms thy Pow'r can frame A Monument of Praise. 7 [Out of the Mouths of Babes And Sucklings, thou canst draw Surprizing Honours to thy Name, And strike the World with Awe. 8 O Lord, our heav'nly King, Thy Name is all Divine: Thy Glories round the Earth are spread, And o'er the Heav'ns they shine.] Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English

Eternal Power! whose high above

Hymnal: Hymns, Selected and Original #13 (1828) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: God Exalted Above all Praise Lyrics: 1 Eternal Power! whose high abode Becomes the grandeur of a God; Infinite lengths, beyond the bounds Where stars revolve their little rounds. 2 The lowest step above thy seat Rises too high for Gabriel's feet; In vain the tall Archangel tries To reach the height with wond'ring eyes. 3 Lord, what shall earth and ashes do! We would adore our Maker too; From sin and dust to thee we cry, The Great, the Holy, and the High! 4 Earth from afar has heard thy fame, And worms have learned to lisp thy name; But O! the glories of thy mind Leave all our soaring thoughts behind. 5 God is in heaven, but man below; Be short our tunes; our words be few: A sacred reverence checks our songs, And praise sits silent on our tongues.
