Author: Dewey Westra Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Sovereignty of God Lyrics: 1 My soul doth magnify the Lord; In Him my spirit doth rejoice, For He beheld my low estate, And in His love made me His choice. 2 All generations from henceforth Shall now my blessedness proclaim, For He has done great things to me; Mighty and holy is His Name. 3 His mercy shall abide on them That fear the Lord from age to age; He has revealed His mighty arm, Routing the haughty in their rage. 4 He has abased the mighty ones, Exalted those of low degree; He filled the hungry souls with good, And smote the rich with poverty. 5 He helped His servant Israel, In honor of His mercy sure; E'en as He spake to Abraham And to His seed forevermore.

Divine Sovereignty; or God's Domion and Decrees

Author: Dr. Watts Appears in 202 hymnals Topics: Sovereignty of God First Line: Keep silence all created things Lyrics: 1 Keep silence all created things, And wait your maker's nod; My soul stands trembling, while she sings The honors of her God. 2 Life, death, and hell, and worlds unknown Hang on his firm decree: He sits on no precarious throne, Nor borrows leave to be. 3 Chain'd to his throne, a volume lies, With all the fates of men, With every angel's form and size, Drawn by th' eternal pen. 4 His providence unfolds the book, And makes his counsels shine; Each opening leaf, and every stroke, Fulfils some deep design. 5 Here, he exalts neglected worms To sceptres and a crown; And there, the following page he turns, And treads the monarch down. 6 Not Gabriel asks the reason why, Nor God, the reason gives; Nor dares the favorite angel pry Between the folded leaves. 7 My God, I would not long to see My fate with curious eyes, What gloomy lines are writ for me, Or what bright scenes may raise. 8 In thy fair book of life and grace, O may I find my name, Recorded in some humble place, Beneath my Lord the lamb!

Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice

Meter: 8.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: God Sovereignty of Lyrics: 1 Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice; It well becomes the good man's voice To sing Jehovah's praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, Your gift of sweetest music bring, To him a new song raise. 2 For upright is Jehovah's word; And all the doings of the Lord In faithfulness are wrought. In justice and in judgment right The Lord doth ever take delight; With goodness earth is fraught. 3 Jehovah's word the heav'ns hath made, And all the host of them arrayed His breath has caused to be. He rolls the waters heap on heap; He stores away the mighty deep In garners of the sea. 4 Let all the earth Jehovah fear, Let all that dwell both far and near In awe before him stand; For, lo, he spake and it was done, And all, his sovereign pow'r begun, Stood fast at his command. 5 He makes the nations' counsels vain, The plans the peoples would maintain Are thwarted by his hand. Jehovah's counsel stands secure, His purposes of heart endure, For evermore they stand. 6 O truly is the nation blessed Whose God, before the world confessed, Jehovah is alone; And blessed the people is whom he Has made his heritage to be, And chosen for his own. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 33:1-12 Used With Tune: FRANCES Text Sources: Compiled from several sources
