Angel Voices, Ever Singing

Can we feel that Thou art near us and wilt hear us? Yea, we can. 3 Yea, we know Thy love rejoices o'er each work of Thine; Thou didst ears and hands and voices for Thy praise combine; craftsman's art and music's measure for Thy pleasure didst design. 4 Here, great God, today we offer of Thine own to Thee; and for Thine acceptance proffer, all unworthily, hearts and minds and hands and voices in our choicest melody. 5 Honor, glory, might, and merit Thine shall ever be, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, blessed Trinity: of the best that Thou hast given earth and heaven render Thee.

Sing to the LORD, Ye Saints of His

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Revelation Lyrics: 1 Sing to the LORD, ye saints of His, and tell how large His goodness is; let all your pow'rs rejoice and bless, while you record His holiness. 2 His anger but a moment stays; His love is life and length of days. Tho' grief and tears the night employ, the morning star restores the joy. 3 Firm was my health, my day was bright, and I presumed 'twould ne'er be night; fondly I said within my heart, "Pleasure and peace shall ne'er depart." 4 But I forgot Thine arm was strong which made my mountain stand so long; soon as Thy face began to hide, my health was gone, my comforts died. 5 "Hear me, O GOD of grace," I said, "and bring me from among the dead!" Thy word rebuked the pains I felt, Thy pard'ning love removed my guilt. 6 My groans, and tears, and forms of woe, art turned to joy and praises now I throw my sackcloth on the ground, and ease and gladness gird me round. 7 My tongue, the glory of my frame, shall ne'er be silent of Thy name; Thy praise shall sound thro' earth and heav'n, for guilt removed and sins forgiv'n.
