O God, how great thy glory is!

Author: Ernest Lange Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God, how great thy glory is! Thy wondrous ways, O who can know? O hight immense! what words suffice Thy countless attributes to show? 2 Greatness unspeakable is thine, Greatness whose undimished ray, When short-lived worlds are lost, shall shine, When earth and heaven are fled away. 3 Unchangeable, all-perfect Lord, Essential life's unbounded sea, What lives and moves, lives by thy word; It lives, and moves, and is, from thee. 4 High is thy power above all hight; Whate'er thy will decrees, is done; Thy wisdom, equal to thy might, Only to thee, O God, is known!

Ere mountains reared their forms sublime

Author: Harriet Auber Appears in 99 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ere mountains reared their forms sublime, Or heaven and earth in order stood, Before the birth of ancient time, From everlasting thou art God. 2 A thousand ages, in their flight, With thee are as a fleeting day; Past, present, future, to thy sight At once their various scenes display. 3 But our brief life's a shadowy dream, A passing thought, that soon is o'er, That fades with morning's earliest beam, And fills the musing mind no more. 4 To us, O Lord, the wisdom give, Each passing moment so to spend That we at length with thee may live, Where life and bliss shall never end.

Covenant Faithfulness

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: In vision to His saints God spake Lyrics: 1 In vision to His saints God spake; From out the people one I take, A mighty leader, true and brave, Ordained, exalted, strong to save, Ordained, exalted, strong to save. 2 My chosen servant I appoint, With holy oil his head anoint; My hand with him shall still remain, My arm his strength shall well sustain, My arm his strength shall well sustain. 3 No enemy shall him affright, His adversaries I will smite, My faithfulness to him will prove, And never more My grace remove, And never more My grace remove. 4 Yea, he shall triumph in My Name, And great shall be his pow'r and fame, From sea to sea his mighty hand Shall hold dominion o'er the land, Shall hold dominion o'er the land. 5 Thou art my Father, he shall cry, My God, my rock of refuge high; My first-born son shall he be owned, Above the kings of earth enthroned, Above the kings of earth enthroned. 6 For him My mercy shall endure, My covenant made with him is sure, His throne and race I will maintain Forever, while the heavens remain, Forever, while the heavens remain. 7 Should sons of his My laws forsake, My just commands and statues break, Then, though My rod their sins reprove, My mercy I will not remove, My mercy I will not remove. 8 Though they be chastened sore and tried, My faithfulness shall yet abide; My plighted word I will not break, Nor change the promise that I spake, Nor change the promise that I spake. 9 My oath is steadfast, ever sure, My servant's race shall still endure; His throne forever firm shall stay When sun and moon have passed away, When sun and moon have passed away. 10 On Thy anointed wrath is poured As if Thy covenant were abhorred; Thou hast profaned his kingly crown, His matchless strength is broken down, His matchless strength is broken down. 11 He is reproached and spoiled of all, His enemies upon him fall; His beauty is consumed away, Forgotten is his kingly sway, Forgotten is his kingly sway. 12 Cut off in youth, his sacred name Is covered now with deepest shame; How long, O Lord, shall wrath abide? Thy face forever wilt Thou hide? Thy face forever wilt Thou hide? 13 Think on my life; O Lord, take thought; Hast Thou created man for nought? What man that lives has power to save His soul from death, and from the grave? His soul from death, and from the grave? 14 Where are Thy mercies which of old Where in Thy promises foretold? Remember, Lord, the bitter shame Heaped on Thy own anointed's name, Heaped on Thy own anointed's name. 15 Blest be the Lord for evermore, Whose promise stands from days of yore. His word is faithful now as then; Blest be His Name. Amen. Amen. Blest be His Name, Amen. Amen.

God is our refuge and defense

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and defense, In trouble our unfailing aid; Secure in his omnipotence, What foe can make our souls afraid? 2 Yea, though the earth's foundations rock, And mountains down the gulf be hurled, His people smile amid the shock; They look beyond this transient world. 3 Built by the word of his command, Ten thousand worlds on nothing rest; All living things are in his hand, And he who trusts his word is blest.
