The New Year

Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 493 hymnals First Line: Great God! we sing that mighty hand Lyrics: 1 Great God! we sing that mighty hand By which supported still we stand; The opening year thy mercy shows; Let mercy crown it till it close. 2 By day, by night, at home, abroad, Still we are guarded by our God; By his incessant bounty fed, By his unerring counsel led. 3 With grateful hearts the past we own; The future, all to us known, We to thy guardian care commit, And peaceful leave before thy feet. 4 In scenes exalted or depressed, Be thou our joy, and thou our rest; Thy goodness all our hopes shall raise, Adored through all our changing days. 5 When death shall interrupt our songs, And seal in silence mortal tongues, Our Helper, God, in whom we trust, In better worlds our souls shall boast.

The New Year

Author: Philip Doddridge Appears in 90 hymnals First Line: Our Helper, God! we bless thy name Lyrics: 1 Our Helper, God! we bless thy name, Whose love for ever is the same; The tokens of thy gracious care Open, and crown, and close the year. 2 Amid ten thousand snares we stand, Supported by thy guardian hand; And see, when we review our ways, Ten thousand monuments of praise. 3 Thus far thine arm has led us on; Thus far we make thy mercy known; And while we tread this desert land, New mercies shall new songs demand. 4 Our grateful souls, on Jordan's shore, Shall raise one sacred pillar more; Then bear in thy bright courts above, Inscriptions of immortal love.

Praise Waits in Zion, Lord, for Thee

Author: Sir J E Smith Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 64 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Praise waits in Zion, Lord for Thee: Thy saints adore Thy holy name; Thy creatures bend the obedient knee, And humbly now Thy presence claim. 2 Eternal Source of truth and light. To Thee we look, on Thee we call; Lord, we are nothing in Thy sight, But Thou to us art all in all. 3 Still may Thy children in Thy word Their common trust and refuge see; O bind us to each other, Lord, By one great bond, – the love of Thee. 4 Here, at the portal of Thy house, We leave our mortal hopes and fears; Accept our prayers and bless our vows, And dry our penitential tears. 5 So shall our sun of hope arise, With brighter and still brighter ray, Till Thou shalt bless our longing eyes With beams of everlasting day. AMEN. Topics: Adoration and Praise Used With Tune: DUKE STREET

This Stone to Thee In Faith We Lay

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 86 hymnals Lyrics: 1 This stone to thee in faith we lay; To thee this temple Lord we build: Thy power and goodness here display. And be it with thy presence filled. 2 Here, when thy people seek thy face, And dying sinners pray to live. Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place. And when thou hearest, Lord forgive? 3 Here, when thy messengers proclaim The blessed gospel of thy son. Hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place. Be mighty signs and wonders done. 4 But will indeed Jehovah deign Here to abide no transient guest? here will the world's Redeemer reign? And here the Holy Spirit rest? 5 Thy glory never hence depart: Yet choose not, Lord, this house alone; Thy kingdom come to every heart. In every bosom for thy throne. Amen.
