Parent of all, omnipotent
For protection in pestilence
Author: William Bullock Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 31 hymnals Topics: National Hymn First Line: In grief and fear to thee, O Lord
For protection in pestilence
Praise to the Lord, who bows his ear
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 33 hymnals Topics: Particular Occasions and Circumstances Public and National Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 Praise to the Lord, who bows his ear
Propitious to his people's pray'r;
And, though deliv'rance long delay,
Answers in his well chosen day.
2 Salvation doth to God belong;
His pow'r and grace shall be our song;
The tribute of our love we bring
To thee our Saviour and our King.
3 O temples, guarded from the flame,
Shall echo thy triumphant name;
And ev'ry peaceful private home
To thee a temple shall become.
4 Still be it our supreme delight
To walk us in thy honour'd sight;
Still in thy precepts and thy fear
Till life's last hour, to persevere.
5 O when shall time the period bring,
When peace shall stretch her balmy wing
O'er ev'ry land and ev'ry shore,
And raging war shall waste no more!
Praise to the Lord, who bows his ear

Is this a fast for me?
Author: Drummond Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 37 hymnals Topics: The Christian Nation Fast-Day Lyrics: 1 Is this a fast for me?
Thus saith the Lord our God:
A day for man to vex his soul
And feel affliction's rod?
2 No; is not this alone
The sacred fast I choose--
Oppression's yoke to burst in twain,
The bands of guilt unloose?
3 To nakedness and want
Your food and raiment deal,
To dwell your kindred race among,
And all their sufferings heal?
4 Then like the morning ray,
Shall spring your health and light;
Before you, righteousness shall shine,
Behind, my glory bright!
Is this a fast for me?
Father, who art alone

Father, who art alone
From age to age exalt his name
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals Topics: Nation's blest and punished Lyrics:
From age to age exalt his name;
God and his grace are still the same;
He fills the hungry soul with food,
And feeds the poor with every good.
But if their hearts rebel and rise
Against the God that rules the skies;
If they reject his heav'nly word,
And slight the counsels of the Lord
He'll bring their spirits to the ground,
And no deliv'rer shall be found;
Laden with grief, they waste their breath
In darkness and the shades of death.
Then to the Lord they raise their cries;
He makes the dawning light arise,
And scatters all that dismal shade
That hung so heavy round their head.
He cuts the bars of brass in two,
And lets the smiling pris'ners through;
Takes off the load of guilt and grief,
And gives the lab'ring soul relief.
O may the sons of men record
The wondrous goodness of the Lord
How great his works! how kind his ways!
Let every tongue pronounce his praise.
Scripture: Psalm 107
From age to age exalt his name
Glorious Things of Thee Are Spoken
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 1,315 hymnals Topics: Culture, Community & Nation First Line: Glorious things of thee are spoken Lyrics: 1 Glorious things of thee are spoken,
Zion, city of our God.
He, whose word cannot be broken
formed thee for his own abode.
On the Rock of Ages founded,
what can shake thy sure repose?
With salvation's walls surrounded,
thou may'st smile at all thy foes.
2 See, the streams of living waters,
springing from eternal love,
well supply thy sons and daughters
and all fear of want remove.
Who can faint while such a river
ever flows their thirst to assuage?
Grace, which like the Lord, the giver,
never fails from age to age.
3 Round each habitation hovering,
see the cloud and fire appear
for a glory and a covering,
showing that the Lord is near.
Thus deriving from their banner
light by night and shade by day,
safe they feed upon the manna
which God gives them on their way.
4 Savior, since of Zion's city
I through grace a member am,
let the world deride or pity,
I will glory in your name.
Fading are the world's best pleasures,
all its boasted pomp and show;
solid joys and lasting treasures
none but Zion's children know.
Scripture: Psalm 87 Used With Tune: AUSTRIAN HYMN
