My People, Give Ear, Attend to My Word

Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal (Rev. ed.) #366 (1990) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Topics: The Church The Kingdom of God Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word, in parables new deep truths shall be heard; the wonderful story our fathers made known to children succeeding by us must be shown. 2 Instructing our sons we gladly record the praises, the works, the might of the Lord, for he has commanded that what he has done be passed in tradition from father to son. 3 Let children thus learn from history's light to hope in our God and walk in his sight, the God of their fathers to fear and obey, and ne'er like their fathers to turn from his way. 4 The story be told, to warn and restrain, of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain, of soldiers who faltered when battle was near, who kept not God's cov'nant nor walked in his fear. 5 God's wonderful works to them he had shown, his marvelous deeds their fathers had known; he made for their pathway the waters divide, his glorious pillar of cloud was their guide. 6 Unharmed through the sea, where perished their foe, he caused them with ease and safety to go; his holy land gaining, in peace they were brought to dwell in the mountain the Lord's hand had bought. 7 He gave them the land, a heritage fair; the nations that dwelt in wickedness there he drove out before them with great overthrow, and gave to his people the tents of the foe. 8 His servant he called, a shepherd of sheep, from tending his flock, the people to keep; so David, their shepherd, with wisdom and might protected and fed them and led them aright.

There by wrestling faith obtain Power to work for God again, Power His image to retrieve, Power, like Thee, our Lord, to live. 4 Vessels, instruments of grace, Pass we thus our happy days 'Twixt the mount and multitude. Doing or receiving good; Glad to pray and labour on, Till our earthly course is run, Till, our sufferings ended, we Bow the head and die like Thee. Languages: English Tune Title: TICHFIELD

The day thou gavest, Lord, is ended

Author: John Ellerton (1826-1893) Hymnal: Ancient and Modern #24 (2013) Meter: 9.8.9.8 Topics: Kingdom of God Lyrics: 1 The day thou gavest, Lord, is ended, the darkness falls at thy behest; to thee our morning hymns ascended, thy praise shall sanctify our rest. 2 We thank thee that thy Church unsleeping, while earth rolls onward into light, through all the world her watch is keeping, and rests not now by day or night. 3 As o'er each continent and island the dawn leads on another day, the voice of prayer is never silent, nor dies the strain of praise away. 4 The sun that bids us rest is waking our brethren 'neath the western sky, and hour by hour fresh lips are making thy wondrous doings heard on high. 5 So be it, Lord: thy throne shall never, like earth's proud empires, pass away; thy kingdom stands, and grows for ever, till all thy creatures own thy sway.

How Good, Lord, to Be Here

Author: Joseph Armitage Robinson Hymnal: Voices United #103 (1996) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Kingdom of God First Line: How good, Lord to be here! Lyrics: 1 How good, Lord, to be here! Your glory fills the night; your face and garments, like the sun, shine with unborrowed light. 2 How good, Lord, to be here, your beauty to behold, where Moses and Elijah stand, your messengers of old. 3 Fulfiller of the past, and hope of things to be, we hail your body glorified, and our redemption see! 4 Before we taste of death, we see your kingdom come; we long to hold the vision bright, and make this hill our home! 5 How good, Lord, to be here! Yet we may not remain; but since you bid us leave the mount come with us to the plain. Tune Title: CARLISLE
