[Refrain] 3 His oath, his covenant, his blood support me in the whelming flood; when all around my soul gives way, he then is all my hope and stay.

Before Jehovah's aweful throne

Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 986 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:25 Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah's aweful throne, ye nations, bow with sacred joy; know that the Lord is God alone: he can create, and he destroy. 2 His sovereign power, without our aid, made us of clay, and formed us then; and, when like wandering sheep we strayed, he brought us to his fold again. 3 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs, high as the heavens our voices raise; and earth, with her ten thousand tongues, shall fill thy courts with sounding praise. 4 Wide as the world is thy command, vast as eternity thy love; firm as a rock thy truth must stand, when rolling years shall cease to move.

Majestic sweetness sits enthroned upon the Savior's brow

Author: Stennett Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 943 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:6-7 Lyrics: 1 Majestic sweetness sits enthroned Upon the Saviour's brow; His head with radiant glories crowned, His lips with grace o'erflow. 2 No mortal can with him compare, Among the sons of men; Fairer is he than all the fair That fill the heavenly train. 3 He saw me plunged in deep distress, He flew to my relief; For me he bore the shameful cross, And carried all my grief. 4 To him I owe my life and breath, And all the joys I have; He makes me triumph over death, He saves me from the grave. 5 To heaven, the place of his abode, He brings my weary feet; Shows me the glories of my God, And makes my joy complete. 6 Since from his bounty I receive Such proofs of love divine, Had I a thousand hearts to give, Lord, they should all be thine.

There’s a wideness in God’s mercy

Author: Frederick William Faber, 1814-63 Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 935 hymnals Scripture: 1 Peter 2:9-10 Lyrics: 1 There's a wideness in God's mercy like the wideness of the sea, and forgiveness in his justice sealed for us on Calvary. 2 There is plentiful redemption in the blood that has been shed; there is joy for all the members in the sorrows of the Head. 3 For the love of God is broader than the measures of our mind; and the heart of the Eternal is most wonderfully kind. 4 But we make his love too narrow by false limits of our own, and we magnify his strictness with a zeal he would not own. 5 If our love were but more simple we should take him at his word; and our lives would be illumined by the goodness of our Lord.

Soldiers of Christ, Arise
