Colonies planted; or, Nations blest and punished: a Psalm for New-England

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #198 (1740) Topics: Nation blest and punished First Line: When God provok'd with daring Crimes Lyrics: 1 When God provok'd with daring Crimes, Scourges the Madness of the Times, He turns their Fields to barren Sand, And dries the Rivers from the Land. 2 His Word can raise the Springs again, And make the wither'd Mountains green, Send show'ry Blessings from the Skies, And Harvests in the Desarts rise. 3 [Where nothing dwelt but Beasts of Prey, Or Men as fierce and wild as they, He bids th' Opprest and Poor repair, And builds them Towns and Cities there. 4 They sow the Fields, and Trees they plant, Whose yearly Fruit supplies their Want; Their Race grows up from fruitful stocks, Their Wealth increases with their Flocks. 5 Thus they are blest; but if they sin, He lets the heathen Nations in; A savage Crew invades their Lands, Their Princes die by barb'rous Hands. 6 Their captive Sons expos'd to Scorn, Wander unpity'd and forlorn; The Country lies unfenc'd, untill'd, And Desolation spreads the Field. 7 Yet if the humbled Nation mourns, Again his dreadful Hand he turns; Again he makes their Cities thrive, And bids the dying Churches live.] 8 The Righteous, with a joyful Sense, Admire the Works of Providence; And Tongues of Atheists shall no more Blaspheme the GOD that Saints adore. 9 How few with pious Care record These wond'rous dealings of the Lord; But wise Observers still shall find The Lord is holy, just, and kind.

The National Anthem (The Star Spangled Banner)

Author: Francis Scott Key, 1779-1843 Hymnal: Hymns for a Pilgrim People #305 (2007) Meter: Irregular Topics: Nation First Line: O say can you see by the dawn's early light Lyrics: 1 O say can you see by the dawn's early light, What so proudly we hailed at the twilight's last gleaming, Whose broad stripes and bright stars, through the perilous fight, O'er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming? And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there. O say does that Star-Spangled Banner yet wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave? 2 On the shore, dimly seen through the mists of the deep, Where the foe's haughty host in dead silence reposes, What is that which the breeze, o'er the towering steep, As it fitfully blows half conceals, half discloses? And catches the gleam of the morning's first beam, In full glory reflected now shines on the stream, 'Tis the Star-Spangled Banner O long may it wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! 3 O thus be it ever, when free men shall stand Between their loved homes and the war's desolation! Blest with vict'ry and peace, may the heav'n-rescued land Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation! Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just, And this be our motto: "In God is our trust." And the Star-Spangled Banner in triumph shall wave O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave! Scripture: Psalm 68:4 Languages: English Tune Title: STAR-SPANGLED BANNER

Happy the nation thus endowed, But more divinely blest are those On whom the all-sufficient God Himself with all his grace bestows. Scripture: Psalm 144:12-15 Languages: English

Unto Us a Boy is Born

Author: Percy Dearmer; George Ratcliff Woodward Hymnal: Voices United #54 (1996) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Nation First Line: Unto us a boy is born! Lyrics: 1 Unto us a boy is born! King of all creation, came he to a world forlorn, the Lord of every nation, the Lord of every nation. 2 Christ from heaven descending low comes, on earth a stranger; ox and ass their owner know; becradled in the manger, becradled in the manger. 3 Herod then with fear was filled: "A prince," he said, "in Jewry!" All the little boys he killed at Bethlem in his fury, at Bethlem in his fury. 4 Now may Mary's son, who came so long ago to love us, lead us all with hearts aflame unto the joys above us, unto the joys above us. 5 Omega and Alpha he! Let the organ thunder, while the choir with peals of glee doth rend the air asunder, doth rend the air asunder. Languages: English Tune Title: PUER NOBIS NASCITUR
