O That Thy Statutes Every Hour
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 83 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O that Thy statutes every hour
Might dwell upon my mind!
Thence I derive a quickening power
And daily peace I find.
2 To meditate Thy precepts, Lord,
Shall be my sweet employ;
My soul shall ne’er forget Thy Word;
Thy Word is all my joy.
3 How would I run in Thy commands
If Thou my heart discharge
From sin and Satan’s hateful chains,
And set my feet at large!
4 My lips with courage shall declare
Thy statutes and Thy name;
I’ll speak Thy Word, tho’ kings should hear,
Nor yield to sinful shame.
5 Let bands of persecutors rise
To rob me of my right;
Let pride and malice forge their lies,
Thy law is my delight.
6 Depart from me, ye wicked race,
Whose hands and hearts are ill;
I love my God, I love His ways,
And must obey His will. Used With Tune: ST. MAGNUS
O That Thy Statutes Every Hour
How Hurtful Was the Choice of Lot
Author: John Newton Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1. How hurtful was the choice of Lot,
Who took up his abode
(Because it was a fruitful spot)
With them who feared not God!
2. A prisoner he was quickly made,
Bereaved of all his store;
And, but for Abraham’s timely aid,
He had returned no more.
3. Yet still he seemed resolved to stay
As if it were his rest;
Although their sins from day to day
His righteous soul distressed.
4. Awhile he stayed with anxious mind,
Exposed to scorn and strife;
At last he left his all behind,
And fled to save his life.
5. In vain his sons-in-law he warned,
They thought he told his dreams;
His daughters too, of them had learned,
And perished in the flames.
6. His wife escaped a little way,
But died for looking back:
Does not her case to pilgrims say,
Beware of growing slack?
7. Yea; Lot himself could ling’ring stand,
Though vengeance was in view;
’Twas mercy plucked him by the hand,
Or he had perished too.
8. The doom of Sodom wilt be ours
If to the earth we cleave;
Lord, quicken all our drowsy pow’rs,
To flee to Thee and live. Used With Tune: ST. MAGNUS Text Sources: Olney Hymns (London: W. Oliver, 1779)

God Everlasting, at Your Word
Author: David Mowbray Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Lyrics: 1 God everlasting, at your word
the hills in splendor rise;
they overshadow human life
whose glory swiftly dies.
2 Our days like dreams come to an end,
our story soon is told,
when strength is spent, and beauty fades,
and bodies have grown old.
3 Teach us, good Lord, to count our days,
to cherish every hour,
to seek your will, to do your work,
and trust your mighty power.
4 Lord, at your hand we have received
the cup of joy and pain;
pour out the fullness of your grace
and we shall sing again!

Author: William Sanders; Hugh Bourne Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Now, Lord, Thy chosen heralds bless,
Who run at Thy command;
And may Thy precious word of grace,
Be heard in every land.
2 The blessing which Thy Son hath bought,
To sinners we proclaim;
Let signs and wonders still be wrought
In Jesus’ conquering name.
3 Now let Thy Holy Spirit strive,
And bring the wanderers home;
Now, mighty God, Thy work revive,
And let Thy kingdom come.
4 Maintain, maintain, Thy sovereign sway,
And bid all sin depart;
The beauties of Thy face display,
And shine in every heart.
5 And when to that bright world we come,
Where all is peace and joy,
We’ll shout the heav’nly harvest home,
And praise Thee in the sky. Used With Tune: ST. MAGNUS Text Sources: Large Hymn Book for the Use of the Primitive Methodists, Bemerseley, England: Primitive Methodist Connexion, 1824)
