O thou who didst prepare

Hymnal: Hymnal #268 (1871) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Offices of the Church For Those at Sea Lyrics: 1 O Thou Who didst prepare The ocean's sounding deep, And bid the gath'ring waters there In mighty concourse sweep: 2 Toss'd in our reeling bark On this tumultuous sea, Thy wondrous ways, O Lord, we mark, And lift our hearts to Thee. 3 Jesus is nigh, Who trod Of old that foaming spray, Whose billows own'd th'incarnate God, And died in calm away. 4 Though swells the threatening tide, Mounting to heaven above, We know in Whom our souls confide, And fearless trust His love.

Lord, for the just thou dost provide

Hymnal: Hymnal #269 (1871) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Offices of the Church For Those at Sea Lyrics: 1 Lord, for the just Thou dost provide, Thou art their sure defence; Eternal Wisdom is their guide, Their help, Omnipotence. 2 Though they through foreign lands should roam, And breathe the tainted air In burning climates, far from home, Yet Thou, their Gad, art there. 3 Thy goodness sweetens every soil, makes every country please; Thou on the snowy hills dost smile, And smooth'st the rugged seas. 4 When waves on waves, to heaven uprear'd, Defied the pilots' art; When terror in each face appear'd, And sorrow in each heart; 5 To Thee I raised my humble prayer, To snatch me from the grave: I found Thine ear not slow to hear, Nor short Thine arm to save. 6 Thou gav'st the word, the winds did cease, The storms obey'd Thy will, The raging sea was hush'd in peace, And every wave was still. 7 For this, my life, in every state, A life of praise shall be; And death, when death shall be my fate. Shall join my soul to Thee. Languages: English

The Divine Nature, Providence and Grace

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #270 (1740) Topics: Providence in Air, Earth and Sea First Line: Praise ye the Lord: 'Tis good to raise Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord; 'Tis good to raise Our Hearts and Voices in his Praise; His Nature and his Works invite To make this Duty our delight. 2 The Lord builds up Jerusalem, And gathers Nations to his Name; His Mercy melts the stubborn Soul, And makes the broken Spirit whole. 3 He form'd the Stars, those heav'nly Flames; He counts their Numbers, calls their Names; His Wisdom's vast, and knows no Bound, A Deep where all our Thoughts are drown'd. 4 Great is our Lord, and great his Might; And all his Glories infinite: He crowns the Meek, rewards the Just, And treads the Wicked to the Dust. Pause. 5 Sing to the Lord, exalt him high, Who spreads his Clouds all round the Sky; There he prepares the fruitful Rain, Nor lets the Drops descend in vain. 6 He makes the Grass the Hills adorn; And cloaths the smiling Fields with Corn; The Beasts with Food his Hands supply, And the young Ravens when they cry. 7 What is the Creature's Skill or Force, The sprightly Man, the warlike Horse, The nimble Wit, the active Limb? All are too mean Delights for him. 8 But Saints are lovely in his Sight; He views his Children with Delight; He sees their Hope, he knows their Fear, And looks and loves his Image there. Scripture: Psalm 147 Languages: English

Summer and Winter: A Song for Great-Britain

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #271 (1740) Topics: Providence in Air, Earth and Sea First Line: O Britain, praise thy mighty GOD Lyrics: 1 O Britain, praise thy mighty GOD, And make his Honours known abroad, He bid the Ocean round thee flow; Not Bars of Brass could guard thee so. 2 Thy Children are secure and blest; Thy Shores have Peace, thy Cities Rest; He feeds thy Sons with finest Wheat, And adds his Blessing to their Meat. 3 Thy changing Seasons he ordains, Thine early and thy latter Rains; His Flakes of Snow like Wool he sends, And thus the springing Corn defends. 4 With hoary Frost he strews the Ground; His Hail descends with clatt'ring Sound: Where is the Man so vainly bold That dares defy his dreadful Cold? 5 He bids the Southern Breezes blow; The Ice dissolve, the Waters flow; But he hath nobler Works and Ways To call the Britons to his Praise. 6 To all the Isle his Laws are shown, His Gospel through the Nation known; He hath not thus reveal'd his Word To ev'ry Land: Praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 147 Languages: English

The Seasons of the Year

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #272 (1740) Topics: Providence in Air, Earth and Sea First Line: With Songs and Honours sounding loud Lyrics: 1 With Songs and Honours sounding loud, Address the Lord on high; Over the Heav'ns he spreads his Cloud, And Waters veil the Sky. 2 He sends his Show'rs of Blessings down To chear the Plains below; He makes the Grass the Mountains crown, And Corn in Vallies grow. 3 He gives the grazing Ox his Meat, He hears the Ravens cry; But Man who tastes his finest Wheat, Should raise his Honours high. 4 His steady Counsels change the Face Of the declining Year; He bids the Sun cut short his Race, And wint'ry Days appear. 5 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow, Descend and clothe the Ground; The liquid Streams forbear to flow, In icy Fetters bound. 6 When from the dreadful Stores on high He pours the rattling Hail, The Wretch that dares this GOD defy Shall find his Courage fail. 7 He sends his Word, and melts the Snow, The Fields no longer mourn; He calls the warmer Gales to blow, And bids the Spring return. 8 The changing Wind, the flying Cloud, Obey his mighty Word; With Songs and Honours sounding loud, Praise ye the sov'reign Lord. Scripture: Psalm 147:7-9 Languages: English
