Creatures vain, and God All sufficient

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #63 (1787) Topics: Works and grace; Works and grace First Line: Blest is the nation, where the Lord Lyrics: 1 Blest is the nation, where the Lord Hath fix'd his gracious throne? Where he reveals his heavenly word, And calls their tribes his own. 2 His eye, with infinite survey, Does the whole world behold; He form'd us all of equal clay, And knows our feeble mould. 3 Kings are not rescued by the force Of armies from the grave; Nor speed nor courage of an horse Can his bold rider save. 4 Vain is the strength of beasts or men, Nor springs our safety thence; But holy souls from God obtain A strong and sure defence. 5 God is their fear, and God their trust: When plagues or famine spread, His watchful eye secures the just, Among ten thousand dead. 6 Lord, let our hearts in thee rejoice, And bless us from thy throne; For we have made thy word our choice, And trust thy grace alone.

Praise ye the Lord; 'tis good to raise

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #76 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Works of creation and providence Lyrics: 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. The Lord builds up Jerusalem, And gathers nations to his name; His mercy melts the stubborn soul, And makes the broken spirit whole. He formed 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 drowned. 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. 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. He makes the grass the hills adorn, And clothes the smiling fields with corn; The beasts with food his hands supply, And the young ravens when they cry. 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. 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

Deluded souls that dream of heaven
