Praise, happy land! Jehovah's name

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: Public and national Blessings and Afflictions Lyrics: 1 Praise, happy land! Jehovah's name; His goodness, and thy bliss proclaim: For thee each blessing largely flows, That freedom's lib'ral hand bestows. 2 Thy children are secure and blest; Thy shores have peace, thy cities rest; He feeds thy sons with finest wheat, And adds his blessing to their meat. 3 Thy changing seasons he ordains, Thine early and thy latter rains; His flakes of snow like wool he sends, And well the springing corn defends. 4 But he hath nobler works and ways, To call his people to his praise: To all our land his laws are shown; His gospel's through the nation known.

Eternal God, whose power upholds

Author: Henry Hallam Tweedy, b.1868 Appears in 56 hymnals Topics: City, Nation, World Lyrics: 1 Eternal God, whose power upholds Both flower and flaming star, To whom there is no here nor there, No time, no near nor far, No alien race, no foreign shore, No child unsought, unknown, Oh, send us forth, thy prophets true, To make all lands thine own! 2 O God of love, whose Spirit wakes In every human breast, Whom love, and love alone, can know, In whom all hearts find rest, Help us to spread thy gracious reign Till greed and hate shall cease, And kindness dwell in human hearts, And all the earth find peace. A-men. 3 O God of truth, whom science seeks And reverent souls adore, Who lightest every earnest mind Of every clime and shore, Dispel the gloom of error’s night, Of ignorance and fear, Until true wisdom from above Shall make life’s pathway clear. 4 O God of beauty, oft revealed In dreams of human art, In speech that flows to melody, In holiness of heart; Teach us to ban all ugliness That blinds our hearts to thee, Till all shall know the loveliness Of lives made fair and free. 5 O God of righteousness and grace, Seen in the Christ, thy Son, Whose life and death reveal thy face, By whom thy will was done, Inspire thy heralds of good news To live thy life divine, Till Christ has formed in all mankind And every land is thine! Amen. Used With Tune: ST. MARIA
