The Fatherly Goodness of God

Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: The Sea First Line: Before Thee, Lord, a people waits Lyrics: 1 Before Thee, Lord, a people waits To praise Thy Name in Zion's gates, To Thee shall vows be paid; Thou hearer of the suppliant's prayer, To Thee in need shall all repair To seek Thy gracious aid. 2 How great my trespasses appear, But Thou from guilt my soul wilt clear, And my transgressions hide. How blest Thy chosen, who by grace Are bro't within Thy dwelling-place That they may there abide. 3 The goodness of Thy house, O Lord, The joys Thy holy courts afford, Our souls shall satisfy; By deeds of might, in justice wrought, The Lord will grant us what we sought, Our Saviour, God Most High. 4 On Thy sustaining arm depend, To earth's and sea's remotest end, All men in ev'ry age; Thy strength establishes the hills, Thy word the roaring billows stills, And calms the people's rage. 5 The tribes of earth's remotest lands Behold the tokens of Thy hands And bow in godly fear; The east, where beams the morning light, The west, in evening glories bright, Rejoice, for Thou art near. Scripture: Psalm 65 Used With Tune: MALONE

What though winds be howling round me, Threatening me with desolation? Christ the Rock is my salvation! Calm amid the wildest shock, On the everlasting Rock. [Refrain] 3 With my Saviour, what can harm me? Satan’s hosts cannot alarm me! Jesus’ mighty arms enclosing, Sweetly is my soul reposing, Sheltered from the fiercest shock, By the ever-blessed Rock.

Saved, we wait the final shock On the string eternal Rock. [Refrain] Used With Tune: PETRA

Praise and Confession

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals Topics: The Sea First Line: Praise ye the Lord, for He is good Lyrics: 1 Praise ye the Lord, for He is good; Give thanks and bless His Name; His loving-kindness changes not, From age to age the same. 2 What tongue can tell His mighty deeds, His wondrous works and ways? O who can show His glory forth, Or utter all His praise? 3 The Lord will bless and prosper those, Yea, blest indeed are they, Whose ways are just, who constantly His righteous law obey. 4 O Lord, remember me in grace, Let me salvation see; The grace Thou showest to Thy saints, That grace reveal to me. 5 Let me behold Thy people's good And in their joy rejoice; With Thy triumphant heritage Let me lift up my voice. 6 In evil we have gone astray, And sinful is our race; Rebelliously our fathers walked, Forgetful of Thy grace. 7 Though they rebelled, yet for their help In saving strength he came To make His power almighty known And glorify His Name. 8 He brought them safely through the sea And overwhelmed their foes; Their faith was stirred, and for the time Their songs of praise arose. 9 Forgetful soon, they tempted God, Nor for His counsel cared; He sent them leanness in their souls, Whilst they earth's bounties shared. 10 With envy they regarded those Whom God to them had sent; The opening earth, the kindling flame, Brought awful punishment. 11 A golden image they adored, And worshiped at its shrine; Thus they despised the living God And scorned His love divine. Scripture: Psalm 106 Used With Tune: BARKE

An Invitation to Worship

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: The Sea First Line: O come before the Lord, our King Lyrics: 1 O come before the Lord, our King, And in His presence let us sing; Let us in glad and joyful lays The Rock of our salvation praise; Before Him come with thankful song In joyful psalms His praise prolong. 2 Almighty pow'r the Lord maintains, Exalted over all He reigns; He holds the valleys in His hand, He makes the mighty mountains stand; To Him belong both land and sea, Creator of the world is He. 3 O come and let us worship now, Before our maker let us bow; We are His sheep and He our God, He feeds our souls in pastures broad; He safely leads us in the way; O come and heed His voice today. 4 Take heed and harden not your heart As did our fathers, nor depart From God to follow in their ways; For with complaints instead of praise, With doubt instead of faith confessed, They put His mercy to the test. 5 Take heed that ye provoke Him not As did your fathers, who forgot, With erring heart, God's holy ways And grieved Him all their sinful days; To whom in wrath Jehovah sware, My promised rest they shall not share. Scripture: Psalm 95 Used With Tune: SALOME

And all the trees their anthem raise. 7 So let them shout before our God, For, lo, He comes, He comes with might, To wield the scepter and the rod, To judge the world with truth and right.
