Ere the blue heavens were stretch'd abroad

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #212 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Meditation Lyrics: Ere the blue heav'ns were stretched abroad, From everlasting was the Word: With God he was; the Word was God, And must divinely be adored. By his own power were all things made; By him supported all things stand; He is the whole creation's head, And angels fly at his command. Ere sin was born, or Satan fell, He led the host of morning stars: Thy generation who can tell, Or count the numbers of thy years? But lo! he leaves those heav'nly forms, The Word descends and dwells in clay, That he may hold converse with worms, Dressed in such feeble flesh as they. Mortals with joy beheld his face, Th' eternal Father's only Son; How full of truth! how full of grace! When through his eyes the Godhead shone. Archangels leave their high abode To learn new mysteries here, and tell The loves of our descending God, The glories of Immanuel. Scripture: Colossians 1:16 Languages: English

Behold, the grace appears!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #215 (1835) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Meditation Lyrics: Behold, the grace appears! The promise is fulfilled; Mary, the wondrous virgin, bears, And Jesus is the child. [The Lord, the highest God, Calls him his only Son; He bids him rule the lands abroad, And gives him David's throne. O'er Jacob shall he reign With a peculiar sway; The nations shall his grace obtain, His kingdom ne'er decay.] To bring the glorious news A heav'nly form appears; He tells the shepherds of their joys, And banishes their fears. "Go, humble swains," said he, "To David's city fly; The promised infant born to-day Doth in a manger lie." "With looks and hearts serene, Go visit Christ your King; And straight a flaming troop was seen: The shepherds heard them sing: "Glory to God on high! And heav'nly peace on earth; Goodwill to men, to angels joy, At the Redeemer's birth! [In worship so divine, Let saints employ their tongues; With the celestial hosts we join, And loud repeat their songs: "Glory to God on high! And heav'nly peace on earth; Goodwill to men, to angels joy, At our Redeemer's birth!"] Scripture: Luke 2:10-19 Languages: English

My Soul, Bless the Lord! the Lord is Most Great

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #218 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: Meditation Lyrics: 1 My soul, bless the Lord! the Lord is most great, With glory arrayed, majestic His state; The light is His garment, the skies are His shade, And over the waters His courts has He laid. 2 He rides on the clouds, the wings of the storm, The lightning and wind His mission perform; The earth He has founded her station to keep, And wrapped as a vesture about her the deep. 3 O’er mountain and plain the dark waters raged; His voice they obeyed, the floods were assuaged; Uplifting the mountains He ordered a bound, Forbidding the waters to cover the ground. 4 He causes the springs of water to flow In streams ’mid the hills and valleys below; Beside them with singing the birds greet the day, And there the beasts gather their thirst to allay. 5 He waters the hills with rain from the skies, And plentiful grass and herbs He supplies, Supplying the cattle, and blessing man’s toil With bread in abundance, with wine and with oil. 6 The trees which the Lord has planted are fed, And over the earth their branches are spread; They keep in their shelter the birds of the air, The life of each creature the Lord makes His care. 7 Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. 8 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 104 Languages: English Tune Title: HOUGHTON

The Seasons Are Fixed by Wisdom Divine

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #219 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: Meditation Lyrics: 1 The seasons are fixed by wisdom divine, The slow changing moon show forth God’s design; The sun in his circuit his Maker obeys, And running his journey hastes not nor delays. 2 The Lord makes the night, when, leaving their lair, The lions creep forth, God’s bounty to share; The Lord makes the morning, when beasts steal away And men are beginning the work of the day. 3 How many and wise Thy works are, O Lord! The earth with the wealth of wisdom is stored; The sea bears in safety the ships to and fro, And creatures unnumbered it shelters below. 4 Thy creatures all look to Thee for their food; Thy hand opens wide, they gather the good; Thy face Thou concealest, in anguish they yearn; Their breath Thou withholdest, to dust they return. 5 Thy Spirit, O Lord, makes life to abound, The earth is renewed, and fruitful the ground; To God ascribe glory and wisdom and might, Let God in His creatures forever delight. 6 Before the Lord’s might earth trembles and quakes, The mountains are rent, and smoke from them breaks; The Lord I will worship through all of my days, Yea, while I have being my God I will praise. 7 Rejoicing in God, my thought shall be sweet, While sinners depart in ruin complete; My soul, bless Jehovah, His Name be adored, Come, praise Him, ye people, and worship the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 104 Languages: English Tune Title: ASPINWALL

Holiness and Comfort from the Word

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #221a (1740) Topics: Meditation First Line: Lord, I esteem thy Judgments right Lyrics: 1 Lord, I esteem thy Judgments right, And all thy Statutes just; Thence I maintain a constant Fight With ev'ry flatt'ring Lust. 2 Thy Precepts often I survey; I keep thy Law in Sight, Through all the Business of the Day, To form my Actions right. 3 My Heart in Midnight Silence cries, "How sweet thy Comforts be;" My Thoughts in holy Wonder rise, And bring their Thanks to Thee. 4 And when my Spirit drinks her Fill At some good Word of thine, Not mighty Men that share the Spoil Have Joys compar'd to mine.
