O Lord, our God, how wond'rous great

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P8b (1766) Topics: Goodness of God Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our God, how wond'rous great Is thine exalted Name! The Glories of thy heav'nly State Let Men and Babes proclaim. 2 When I behold thy Works on high, The Moon that rules the Night, And Stars that well adorn the Sky, Those moving Worlds of Light; 3 Lord, what is Man, or all his Race, Who dwells so far below, That thou shouldst visit him with Grace, And love his Nature so? 4 That thine eternal Son should bear To take a mortal Form, Made lower than his Angels are, To save a dying Worm. 5 [Yet while he liv'd on Earth unknown, And Men would not adore, Th' obedient Seas and Fishes own His Godhead and his Pow'r. 6 The Waves lay spread beneath his Feet, And Fish at his Command, Bring their large Shoals to Peter's Net, Bring Tribute to his Hand. 7 These lesser Glories of the Son Shone through the fleshly Cloud; Now we behold him on his Throne, And Men confess him GOD.] 8 Let him be crown'd with Majesty, Who bow'd his Head to Death; And be his Honours sounded high, By all Things that have Breath. 9 JESUS, our Lord, how wond'rous great Is thine exalted Name! The Glories of thy heav'nly State Let the whole Earth proclaim. Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English

Almighty Ruler of the Skies

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P8c (1766) Topics: Goodness of God Lyrics: 1 Almighty Ruler of the Skies, Thro' the wide Earth thy Name is spread, And thine eternal Glories rise O'er all the Heav'ns thy Hands have made. 2 To Thee the Voices of the Young A Monument of Honour raise; And Babes with uninstructed Tongue Declare the Wonders of thy Praise. 3 Thy Power assists their tender Age To bring proud Rebels to the Ground, To still the bold Blasphemer's Rage, And all their Policies confound. 3 Children amidst thy Temple throng To see their great Redeemer's Face; The Son of David, is their Song, And young Hosannas fill the Place. 4 The frowning Scribes and angry Priests In vain their impious Cavils bring; Revenge sits silent in their Breasts, While Jewish Babes proclaim their King. Scripture: Psalm 8:1-2 Languages: English

GOD's Sovereignty and Goodness; and Man's Dominion over the Creatures

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #13 (1740) Topics: Goodness of God First Line: O Lord, our heavenly King Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our heavenly King, Thy Name is all Divine; Thy Glories round the Earth are spread, And o'er the Heav'ns they shine. 2 When to thy Works on high I raise my wond'ring Eyes, And see the Moon complete in Light, Adorn the darksome Skies 3 When I survey the Stars, And all their shining Forms, Lord, what is Man, that worthless Thing, Akin to Dust and Worms? 4 Lord, what is worthless Man, That thou shouldst love him so? Next to thine Angels is he plac'd, And lord of all below. 5 Thine Honours crown his Head, While Beasts, like Slaves, obey, And Birds that cut the Air with Wings, And Fish that cleave the sea. 6 How rich thy Bounties are! And wond'rous are thy Ways Of Dust and Worms thy Pow'r can frame A Monument of Praise. 7 [Out of the Mouths of Babes And Sucklings, thou canst draw Surprizing Honours to thy Name, And strike the World with Awe. 8 O Lord, our heav'nly King, Thy Name is all Divine; Thy Glories round the Earth are spread, And o'er the Heav'ns they shine.] Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English
