I say again, Rejoice!

But in all things you seek,
By prayer, petition, and with thanks,
Go to God with all your needs.

Transcending all that’s known,
Will guard your heart and mind in Christ,

Think on these things both day and night,
Let your thoughts to God be raised.

Rejoice, Ye Righteous, in the Lord
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5750 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord,
This work belongs to you:
Sing of His name, His ways, His Word,
How holy, just and true!

Let Heav’n and earth proclaim;
His works of nature and of grace
Reveal His wondrous name.
3. His wisdom and almighty Word
The heav’nly arches spread,
And by the Spirit of the Lord
Their shining hosts were made.
4. He bid the liquid waters flow
To their appointed deep;
The flowing seas their limits know,
And their own station keep.
5. Ye tenants of the spacious earth
With fear before Him stand;
He spake, and nature took its birth,
And rests on His command.
6. He scorns the angry nations’ rage,
And breaks their vain designs;
His counsel stands through every age,
And in full glory shines. Languages: English Tune Title: AZMON

Religion Is the Chief Concern
Author: John Fawcett Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5761 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Religion is the chief concern
Of mortals here below:
May I its great importance learn
Its sovereign virtue know!
2. More needful this than glittering wealth
Or aught the world bestows;
Nor reputation, food nor health,
Can give us such repose.
3. Religion should our thoughts engage,
Amidst our youthful bloom;
’Twill fit us for declining age,
And for the awful tomb.
4. O may my heart, by grace renewed,
Be my Redeemer’s throne;
And be my stubborn will subdued,
His government to own!
5. Let deep repentance, faith, and love
Be joined with godly fear;
And all my conversation prove
My heart to be sincere.
6. Let lively hope my soul inspire;
Let warm affections rise;
And may I wait with strong desire
To mount above the skies! Languages: English Tune Title: GREEN HILL (Peace)

Ring Out, Ye Bells
Author: J. Wimsett Boulding Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5805 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Ring out, ye bells, your music tells Lyrics: 1. Ring out, ye bells, your music tells
Once again the story
Of that sweet Child, who, undefiled,
Came from realms of glory;
Ring in the King who comes to bring
The reign of God on earth,
A world of peace and righteousness,
The old world’s second birth.
2. Ring in the star that shines from far
God’s own light bestowing;
No other light can break our night,
Heav’n’s own dawn foreshowing;
It turns above with God’s dear love,
A love that naught can dim,
’Twill burn and shine, that light divine,
Till all are drawn to Him.
3. Ring on, ye bells, your music tells
Human love is growing;
That strifes will cease, and tides of peace
Up the world come flowing:
Ring in that sea of harmony,
That flood of human love,
O’er whose still breast once more will rest
The Spirit like a dove.
4. What though your spells, ye Christmas bells,
Ages have been ringing,
And angels bright through sin’s long night,
Christmas carols singing;
Still ring your chime, till every clime
Has heard the angel throng,
And every sound is lost and drowned
In their eternal song. Languages: English Tune Title: CAPE HATTERAS
Ring Out, Ye Bells
Rise, O My Soul, Pursue the Path
Author: John Needham Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5823 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Rise, O my soul, pursue the path
By ancient worthies trod;
Aspiring, view those holy men
Who lived and walked with God.
2. Though dead, they speak in reason’s ear,
And in example live;
Their faith, and hope, and mighty deeds
Still fresh instruction give.
3. ’Twas through the Lamb’s most precious blood
They conquered every foe;
And to His power and matchless grace
Their crowns of life they owe.
4. Lord, May I ever keep in view
The patterns Thou hast given
And ne’er forsake the blessèd road
That led them safe to Heaven. Languages: English Tune Title: PETERBOROUGH (Harrison)

Rulers of Sodom! Hear the Voice
Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5857 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Rulers of Sodom! hear the voice
Of Heav’n’s eternal Lord;
Men of Gomorrah! bend your ear
Submissive to His Word.
2. ’Tis thus He speaks; to what intent
Are your oblations vain?
Why load My altars with your gifts,
Polluted and profane?
3. Burnt offerings long may blaze to Heav’n,
And incense cloud the skies;
The worship and the worshipper
Are hateful in My eyes.
4. Your rites, your fasts, your prayers, I scorn,
And pomp of solemn days:
I know your hearts are full of guile,
And crooked are your ways.
5. But cleanse your hands, ye guilty race,
And cease from deeds of sin;
Learn in your actions to be just,
And pure in heart within.
6. Mock not My name with honors vain,
But keep My holy laws;
Do justice to the friendless poor,
And plead the widow’s cause.
7. Then, though your guilty souls are stained
With sins of crimson dye,
Yet, through My grace with snow itself
In whiteness they shall vie. Languages: English Tune Title: CHESHIRE
Rulers of Sodom! Hear the Voice

Of our Redeemer, God?
Shall infidels reproach His laws,
Or trample on His blood?
2. What if He choose mysterious ways
To cleanse us from our faults?
May not the works of sovereign grace
Transcend our feeble thoughts?
3. What if His Gospel bids us fight
With flesh, and self, and sin,
The prize is most divinely bright
That we are called to win.
4. What if the foolish and the poor
His glorious grace partake,
This but confirms His truth the more,
For so the prophets spake.
5. Do some that own His sacred name
Indulge their souls in sin?
Jesus should never bear the blame,
His laws are pure and clean.
6. Then let our faith grow firm and strong,
Our lips profess His Word;
Nor blush nor fear to walk among
The men that love the Lord. Languages: English Tune Title: CHURCH

Since All the Downward Tracts of Time
Author: James Hervey Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #5870 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1. Since all the downward tracts of time
God’s watchful eye surveys,
O who so wise to choose our lot
Or to appoint our ways?

Nor less when He denies;
E’en crosses from His sovereign hand
Are blessings in disguise.
3. Why should we doubt a Father’s love,
So constant and so kind?
To His unerring, gracious will
Be every wish resigned. Languages: English Tune Title: WILTSHIRE

Yon ram shall yield his meaner life;
Behold the victim there.

Saul turns his arms another way,
To save th’invaded land.

He thought to rise no more;
But God prepared a fish to save,
And bear him to the shore.

That meet us in His Word!
May every deep felt care of mine
Be trusted with the Lord.
6. Wait for His seasonable aid,
And though it tarry, wait:
The promise may be long delayed,
But cannot come too late. Languages: English Tune Title: BEATI IMMACULATI
