Sing hallelujah!
Come, our great Redeemer praise.
I will sing the glorious praises
of my God through all my days.
Put no confidence in princes,
nor on human help depend.
They shall die, to dust returning;
all their thoughts and plans shall end.
2 Happy is the one who chooses
Jacob's God to be his aid.
They are blest whose hope of blessing
on the LORD their God is stayed.
Heaven and earth the LORD created,
seas and all that they contain.
He delivers from oppression;
righteousness he will maintain.
3 Food he daily gives the hungry,
sets the mourning prisoner free,
raises those bowed down with anguish,
makes the sightless eyes to see.
God our Savior loves the righteous,
and the stranger he befriends,
helps the orphan and the widow,
judgment on the wicked sends.
4 Praise the LORD! Sing hallelujah!
Come, our great Redeemer praise.
I will sing the glorious praises
of my God through all my days.
Over all God reigns forever;
through all ages he is King.
Unto him, your God, O Zion,
joyful hallelujahs sing.
Scripture: Psalm 146 Used With Tune: RIPLEY Text Sources: Psalter, 1887, alt.
Praise the LORD! Sing Hallelujah!
Father, how wide thy glory shines!
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 313 hymnals Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Lyrics: 1 Father, how wide thy glory shines!
How high thy wonders rise!
Known through the earth bycountless signs,
By countless through the skies.
Those mighty orbs proclaim thy power,
Their motions speak thy skill;
And on the wings of every hour
We read thy patience still.
2 But, when we view thy strange design
To save rebellious worms,
Where vengeance and compassion join
In their divinest forms,
Here the whole Deity is known;
Nor dares a creature guess
Which of the glories brightest shone
The justice, or the grace.
3 Now while the glories of the Lamb
Adorn the heavenly plains;
While seraphs chant Immanuel's name,
And try their choicest strains,
O may I bear some humble part
In that immortal song!
Wonder and joy shall tune my heart,
And love command my tongue. Used With Tune: VARINA
Father, how wide thy glory shines!
Rebels, Who Had Dared to Show
Meter: 7.7.7.7.7.7 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Providence of God Lyrics: 1 Rebels, who had dared to show
Proud contempt of God Most High,
Bound in iron and in woe,
Shades of death and darkness night,
Humbled low with toil and pain,
Fell, and looked for help in vain.
2 To Jehovah then they cried
In their trouble and He saved,
Threw the prison open wide
Where they lay to death enslaved,
Bade the gloomy shadows flee,
Broke their bonds and set them free.
3 Sons of men, awake to praise
God the Lord who reigns above,
Gracious in His works and ways,
Wondrous in redeeming love;
Iron bars He breaks like clay,
And the brazen gates give way. Scripture: Psalm 107 Used With Tune: DIX

God is the name my soul adores
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 83 hymnals Topics: Worship Attributes and Providence of God Lyrics: 1 God is the name my soul adores,
Almighty, high, Eternal One:
Both heaven and earth, with all their powers,
Proclaim the Infinite Unknown.
2 Thy voice ordained the rolling spheres,
And bade the countless planets shine;
But nothing like thyself appears
Through all these spacious works of thine.
3 Still restless nature dies and grows,
From change to change thy creatures run;
Thy being no succession knows,
And all thy vast designs are one.
4 A glance of thine runs through the globe,
Rules the bright worlds, and moves their frame;
Of light thou form'st thy dazzling robe;
Thy ministers are living flame.
5 How shall polluted mortals dare
To sing thy glory or thy grace?
Beneath thy feet we lie afar,
And see but shadows of thy face.
6 Who can behold the blazing light?
Who can approach consuming flame?
None but thy wisdom knows thy might;
None but thy word can speak thy name.

Oh, why despond in life's dark vale?
Author: Anon. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Providence Lyrics: 1 Oh, why despond in life's dark vale?
Why sink to fears a prey?
Th' almighty power can never fail,
His love can ne'er decay.
2 Behold, the birds that wing the air,
Nor sow nor reap the grain:
Yet God, with all a father's care,
Relieves when they complain.
3 Behold the lilies of the field:
They toil nor labor know;
Yet royal robes to theirs must yield,
In beauty's richest glow.
4 That God who hears the raven's cry,
Who decks the lily's form,
Will surely all your wants supply,
And shield you in the storm.
5 Seek first his kingdom's grace to share,
Its righteousness pursue:
And all that needs your earthly care
He will bestow on you.
Scripture: Psalm 42:5
Oh, why despond in life's dark vale?
