Dear Father, to Thy mercy seat, My soul for shelter flies
Author: Mrs. Steele Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 193 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Preserver Lyrics: 1 Dear Father, to thy mercy-seat,
My soul for shelter flies;
'Tis here I find a safe retreat,
When storms and tempests rise.
2 My cheerful hope can never die,
If thou, my God, art near;
Thy grace can raise my comforts high,
And banish every fear.
3 My great Protector and my Lord,
Thy constant aid impart;
Oh, let thy kind, thy gracious word,
Sustain my trembling heart!
4 Oh, never let my soul remove
From this divine retreat!
Still let me trust thy power and love,
And dwell beneath thy feet. Scripture: Psalm 145:18-20
Dear Father, to Thy mercy seat, My soul for shelter flies
There's not a place in earth's vast round
Author: Anon. Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 19 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Omnipresence Lyrics: 1 There's not a place in earth's vast round,
In ocean deep, or air,
Where skill and wisdom are not found,
For God is everywhere.
2 Around, within, below, above,
Wherever space extends,
There heaven displays its boundless love,
And power with mercy blends.
3 Then rise, my soul, and sing his name,
And all his praise rehearse,
Who spread abroad earth's wondrous frame,
And built the universe.
4 Where'er thine earthly lot is cast,
His power and love declare;
Nor think the mighty theme too vast,
For God is everywhere.
There's not a place in earth's vast round

Meet and right it is to sing
Author: C. Wesley Appears in 73 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Holiness Lyrics: 1 Meet and right it is to sing,
In every time and place,
Glory to our heavenly King,
The God of truth and grace.
Join we then with sweet accord,
All in one thanksgiving join!
Holy, holy, holy Lord,
Eternal praise be thine!
2 Thee, the first-born sons of light,
In choral symphonies,
Praise by day, day without night,
And never, never cease;
Angels and archangels, all
Praise the mystic Three in One;
Sing, and stop, and gaze, and fall,
O'erwhelmed before thy throne!
3 Father, God, thy love we praise,
Which gave thy Son to die;
Jesus, full of truth and grace,
Alike we glorify;
Spirit, Comforter divine.
Praise by all to thee be given,
Till we in full chorus join,
And earth is turned to heaven. Scripture: Exodus 13:21
Meet and right it is to sing
O LORD! how happy should we be
Author: J. Austice Appears in 137 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Providence Lyrics: 1 O LORD! how happy should we be,
If we could cast our care on Thee--
If we from self could rest;
And feel at heart that One above,
In perfect wisdom, perfect love,
Is working for the best.
2 How far from this our daily life!
Ever disturbed by anxious strife,
By sudden, wild alarms;
Oh could we but relinquish all
Our earthly props, and simply fall
On thy Almighty arms!
3 Could we but kneel, and cast our load,
E'en while we pray, upon our God,
Then rise with lightened cheer--
Sure that the Father, who is nigh
To still the famished raven's cry,
Will hear, in that we fear!
4 We can not trust him as we should,
So chafes fall'n nature's restless mood
To cast its peace away;
Yet birds and flowerets round us preach,
All, all the present evil teach,
Sufficient for the day.
5 Lord, make these faithless hearts of ours
Such lesson learn from birds and flowers;
Make them from self to cease;
Leave all things to a Father's will,
And taste, before him lying still,
E'en in affliction, peace.
O LORD! how happy should we be
The Lord is King, lift up thy voice
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 260 hymnals Topics: The Catechism Works and Attributes of God Lyrics: 1 The Lord is King! lift up thy voice,
O earth! and all ye heavens rejoice!
From world to world the joy shall ring:
The Lord Omnipotent is King!
2 The Lord is King! who then shall dare
Resist his will, distrust His care?
Holy and true are all His ways;
Let every creature speak His praise.
3 The Lord is King! exalt your strains,
Ye saints! you God, your Father, reigns;
One Lord and Savior all secures;
He reigns, and life and death are yours.
The Lord is King, lift up thy voice

The Trinity
When forth from Egypt's trembling strand
Author: G. Burgess Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Preserver Lyrics: 1 When forth from Egypt's trembling strand
The tribes of Israel sped,
And Jacob in the stranger's land
Departing banners spread;--
2 The sea beheld, and, struck with dread,
Rolled all its billows back;
And Jordan, through his deepest bed,
Revealed their destined track.
3 What ailed thee, O thou mighty sea,
And rolled thy waves in dread?
What bade thy tide, O Jordan, flee,
And bare its deepest bed?
4 O earth, before the Lord, the God
Of Jacob, trembling still;
Who makes the waste a watered sod,
The flint of gushing rill.
When forth from Egypt's trembling strand
With songs and honors sounding loud
Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 287 hymnals Topics: Attributes of God Providence Lyrics: 1 With songs and honors sounding loud,
Address the Lord on high;
Over the heavens he spreads his cloud,
And waters veil the sky.
2 He sends his showers of blessings down,
To cheer the plains below;
He makes the grass the mountains crown,
And corn in valleys grow.
3 His steady counsels change the face
Of the declining year;
He bids the sun cut short his race,
And wintry days appear.
4 His hoary frost, his fleecy snow,
Descend and clothe the ground;
The liquid streams forbear to flow,
In icy fetters bound.
5 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.
6 When from his dreadful stores on high
He pours the sounding hail,
The wretch that dares his God defy,
Shall find his courage fail.
7 The changing wind, the flying cloud,
Obey his mighty word:
With songs and honors sounding loud,
Praise ye the sovereign Lord. Scripture: Psalm 74:16
