I sing the almighty power of God

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #169 (1917) Topics: The Godhead Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 I sing the almighty power of God, That made the mountains rise, That spread the flowing seas abroad, And built the lofty skies. 2 I sing the wisdom that ordained The sun to rule the day; The moon shines full at His command, And all the stars obey. 3 All creatures, numerous as they be, Are subject to His care; There's not a place where we can flee, But God is present there. 4 There's not a plant or flower below But makes His glories known; And clouds arise, and tempests blow, By order from the throne. 5 His hand is my perpetual guard; He guides me with His eye; Why should I, then, forget the Lord, Who is for ever nigh?

The sons of Adam in distress Fly to the shadow of Thy wings. 5 Life, like a fountain rich and free, Springs from the presence of the Lord; And in Thy light our souls shall see The glories promised in Thy Word.

When Israel, of the Lord beloved

Author: Sir Walter Scott, Bart., 1771-1832 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #172 (1917) Topics: The Godhead Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 When Israel, of the Lord beloved, Out from the land of bondage came, Her fathers' God before her moved, An awful guide, in smoke and flame. 2 By day, along the astonished lands The cloudy pillar glided slow; By night, Arabia's crimsoned sands Returned the fiery column's glow. 3 Thus present still, though now unseen, When brightly shines the prosperous day, Be thoughts of Thee a cloudy screen To temper the deceitful ray. 4 And O, when gathers on our path, In shade and storm, the frequent night, Be Thou, long-suffering, slow to wrath, A burning and a shining light!

The Lord our God alone is strong

Author: C. T. Winchester, 1847 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #173 (1917) Topics: The Godhead Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 The Lord our God alone is strong; His hands build not for one brief day; His wondrous works, through ages long, His wisdom and His power display. 2 His mountains lift their solemn forms, To watch in silence 'er the land; The rolling oceans, rocked with storms, Sleep in the hollow of His hand. 3 Beyond the heavens He sits alone, The universe obeys His nod; The lightning-rifts disclose His throne, And thunders voice the name of God. 4 Thou sovereign God, receive this gift Thy willing servants offer Thee; Accept the prayers that thousands lift, And let these halls Thy temple be. 5 And let those learn, who here shall meet, True wisdom is with reverence crowned, And Science walks with humble feet To seek the God that Faith hath found.

Praise ye the Lord! 'tis good to raise

Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #174 (1917) Topics: The Godhead Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord! 'tis good to raise Your hearts and voices in His praise; His nature and His works invite To make this duty our delight. 2 He formed the stars, those heavenly flames, He counts their numbers, calls their names; His wisdom's vast, and knows no bound, A deep where all our thoughts are drowned. 3 Sing to the Lord; exalt Him high, Who spreads His clouds along the sky; There He prepares the fruitful rain, Nor lets the drops descend in vain. 4 He makes the grass the hills adorn, And clothes the smiling fields with corn; The beasts with food His hands supply, And the young ravens when they cry. 5 What is the creature's skill or force? The sprightly man, or warlike horse? The piercing wit, the active limb? All are too mean delights for Him. 6 But saints are lovely in His sight, He views His children with delight; He sees their hope, He knows their fear, And looks and loves His image there.

The spacious firmament on high

Author: Joseph Addison, 1672-1719 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #176a (1917) Topics: The Godhead Creation and Providence Lyrics: 1 The spacious firmament on high, With all the blue ethereal sky, And spangled heavens, a shining frame, Their great Original proclaim. The unwearied sun, from day to day, Does his Creator's power display; And publishes to every land The work of an almighty hand. 2 Soon as the evening shades prevail, The moon takes up the wondrous tale; And nightly to the listening earth Repeats the story of her birth: Whilst all the stars that round her burn, And all the planets in their turn, Confirm the tidings as they roll, And spread the truth from pole to pole. 3 What though, in solemn silence, all Move round this dark terrestrial ball; What though no real voice or sound Amidst their radiant orbs be found; In reasons' ear they all rejoice, And utter forth a glorious voice, For ever singing, as they shine, "The hand that made us is divine."

The Spirit breathes upon the Word

Author: William Cowper, 1731-1800 Hymnal: Methodist Hymn and Tune Book #183 (1917) Topics: The Godhead Holy Scripture Lyrics: 1 The Spirit breathes upon the Word, And brings the truth to sight; Precepts and promises afford A sanctifying light. 2 A glory gilds the sacred page, Majestic like the sun; It gives a light to every age, It gives, but borrows none. 3 The hand that gave it still supplies The gracious light and heat; His truths upon the nations rise-- They rise, but never set. 4 Let everlasting thanks be Thine For such a bright display As makes a world of darkness shine With beams of heavenly day. 5 My soul rejoices to pursue The steps of Him I love, Till glory breaks upon my view In brighter worlds above.
