In the help we give our neighbor, God's will be done. In our world-wide task of caring for the hungry and despairing, in the harvests we are sharing, God's will be done. 3 For the harvests of the Spirit, thanks be to God.

A Song of Praise to God

Author: Dr. S. Stennett Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 29 hymnals Topics: Praise to God, from the whole creation First Line: To God the universal king Lyrics: 1 To God the universal king Let all mankind their tribute bring: All that have breath, your voices raise, In songs of never-ceasing praise. 2 The spacious earth on which we tread, And wider heavens stretch'd o'er our head, A large and solemn temple frame, To celebrate its builder's fame. 3 Here the bright sun that rules the day, As thro' the sky he makes his way, To all the world proclaims aloud The boundless sov'reignty of God. 4 When from his courts the sun retires, And with the day his voice expires, The moon and stars adopt the song, And thro' the night the praise prolong. 5 The list'ning earth with rapture hears Th' harmonious music of the spheres; And all her tribes the notes repeat, That God is wise, and good, and great. 6 But man endow'd with nobler pow'rs, His God in nobler strains adores: His is the gift to know the song, As well as sing with tuneful tongue.

Christ's condescension and glorification; or, God made man

Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Praise to God from children; Praise to God from children First Line: O Lord, our Lord, how wondrous great Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our Lord, how wondrous great Is thine exalted name! The glories of thy heavenly state Let men and babes proclaim. 2 When I behold your works on high, The moon that rules the night, The shining stars that grace the sky, Those moving worlds of light. 3 Lord, what is man, or all his race, Who dwells so far below, That thou should'st visit him with grace, And love my nature so? 4 That thine eternal Son should bear To take a mortal form, Made lower than the angels are, To save a dying worm? [5 Yet while he liv'd on earth unknown, And men would not adore, Behold obedient nature own, His Godhead and his power. 6 The waves lay spread beneath his feet; And fish at his command, Bring their large shoals to Peter's net, Bring tribute to his hand. 7 These smaller glories of the Son, Shone through the fleshy cloud; Now we behold him on his throne, And men confess him God. 8 Let him with majesty be crown'd, Who bow'd his head to death; And his eternal honours sound, From all things that have breath. 9 Jesus, our Lord, how wondrous great Is thine exalted name! The glories of thy heavenly state Let the whole earth proclaim. Scripture: Psalm 8

Appears in 78 hymnals Topics: Praise to God from children; Praise to God from children First Line: Almighty Ruler of the skies Lyrics: 1 Almighty Ruler of the skies, Thro' the wide earth thy name is spread, And thine eternal glories rise O'er all the heavens thy hands have made. 2 To thee the voices of the young, There sounding notes of honour raise; And babes, with uninstructed tongue, Declare the wonders of thy praise. 3 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. 4 Children amidst thy temple throng To see their great Redeemer's face; The Son of David, is their song, And loud Hosannas fill the place. 5 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
