Bless’d Be the God of Israel

Author: Michael A. Perry Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: God Presence of Lyrics: 1 Bless’d be the God of Israel, who comes to set us free, who visits and redeems us, and grants us liberty! The prophets spoke of mercy, of freedom and release, God shall fulfill the promise to bring our people peace. 2 Now from the house of David a child of grace is giv’n, a Savior comes among us to raise us up to heav’n. Before him goes the herald, forerunner in the way, the prophet of salvation, the harbinger of day. 3 On all by death imprisoned the sun begins to rise, the dawning of forgiveness upon the sinner’s eyes, to guide the feet of pilgrims along the paths of peace. Oh, bless our God and Savior with songs that never cease! Scripture: Psalm 146:5-9 Used With Tune: WEBB Text Sources: based on Luke 1:68-79; Psalm Praise

Sometimes a Light Surprises

Author: William Cowper Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Appears in 411 hymnals Topics: God Abiding Presence of Lyrics: 1 Sometimes a light surprises the Christian while he sings; it is the Lord, who rises with healing in his wings: when comforts are declining, he grants the soul again a season of clear shining, to cheer it after rain. 2 In holy contemplation we sweetly then pursue the theme of God’s salvation, and find it ever new; set free from present sorrow, we cheerfully can say, “Let the unknown tomorrow bring with it what it may.” 3 It can bring with it nothing but he will bear us through; who gives the lilies clothing will clothe his people too: beneath the spreading heavens no creature but is fed; and he who feeds the ravens will give his children bread. 4 Though vine nor fig tree neither their wonted fruit should bear, though all the field should wither, nor flocks nor herds be there; yet God the same abideth, his praise shall tune my voice, for, while in him confiding, I cannot but rejoice. Scripture: 2 Samuel 23:4-5 Used With Tune: BENTLEY
