Adore and tremble, for our God

Hymnal: ACNH1765 #XLI (1765) Lyrics: 1 Adore and tremble, for our God is a consuming Fire, His jealous Eyes his Wrath inflame, And raise his Vengeance higher. 2 Almighty Vengeance, how it burns! how bright his Fury glows! Vast Magazines of Plagues and Storms lie treasured for his Foes. 3 Those Heaps of Wrath, by slow Degree are forc'd into a Flame, But kindled, oh! how fierce they blaze! and rend all Nature's Frame. 4 At his Approach the Mountains flee, and seek a watry Grave; The frighted Sea makes Haste away, and shrinks up ev'ry Wave. 5 Through the wide Air the weighty Rocks. are swift as Hail-stones hurl'd; Who dares engage his fiery Rage that shakes the solid World? 6 Yet, mighty God, thy sov'reign Grace sits Regent on the Throne, The Refuge of thy chosen Race when Wrath comes rushing down. 7 Thy Hand shall on rebellious Kings a fiery Tempest pour, While we beneath thy shelt'ring Wings thy just Revenge adore. Scripture: Nahum 1:1-3 Languages: English

Almighty Ruler of the skies

Hymnal: ACNH1765 #LXXX (1765) 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 Pow'r 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.

Awake, our Souls, away our Fears

Hymnal: ACNH1765 #XLII (1765) Lyrics: 1 Awake, our Soul, (away, our Fears, Let ev'ry trembling Tho't be gone) Awake, and run the heavenly Race, And put a chearful Courage on. 2 True, 'tis a strait and thorny Road, And mortal Spirits tire and faint; But they forget the mighty God, That feeds the Strength of ev'ry Saint. 3 The mighty God, whose matchless Pow'r Is ever new and ever young, And firm endures while endless Years Their everlasting Circles run. 4 From Thee the overflowing Spring, Our Souls shall drink a fresh Supply, While such as trust their native Strength Shall melt away, and droop, and die. 5 Swift as an Eagle cuts the Air, We'll mount aloft to thine Abode On Wings of Love our Souls shall fly, Nor tire amidst the heavenly Road.

Behold the Love, the gen'rous Love

Hymnal: ACNH1765 #LXXVII (1765) Lyrics: 1 Behold the Love, the gen'rous Love, that holy David shows; Hark, how his sounding Bowels move to his afflicted Foes! 2 When they are sick, his Soul complains, and seems to feel the Smart; The Spirit of the Gospel reigns, and melts his pious Heart. 3 How did his flowing Tears condole, as for a Brother dead! And Fasting mortify'd his Soul, while for their Life He pray'd. 4 They groan'd, and curs'd him on their Bed, yet still he pleads and mourns; And double Blessings on his Head the righteous God returns. 5 O glorious Type of heav'nly Grace! thus Christ the Lord appears; While Sinners curse, the Saviour prays, and pities them with Tears. 6 He the true David, Israel's King, blest and belov'd of God, To save us Rebels dead in Sin, pay'd his own dearest Blood. Scripture: Hosea 3:5 Languages: English

Blest be the everlasting God

Bright King of Gory, dreadful God!

Hymnal: ACNH1765 #LXV (1765) Lyrics: 1 Bright King of Glory, dreadful God! Our Spirits bow before thy Seat, To Thee we lift an humble Thought, And worship at thine awful Feet. 2 Thy Pow'r hath form'd, thy Wisdom sways, All Hature with a sov'reign Word; And the bright World of Stars obeys The Will of their superior Lord. 3 Mercy and Truth unite in one, And smiling sit at thy Right-Hand; Eternal Justice guards thy Throne, And Vengeance waits thy dread Command. 4 A thousand Seraphs strong and bright, Stand round the glorious Deity; But who amongst the Sons of Light Pretends Comparison with Thee? 5 Yet there is one of human Frame, Jesus, array'd in Flesh and Blood, Thinks it no Robbery to claim A full Equality with God. 6 Their Glory shines with equal Beams' Their Essence is for ever one, Tho' they are known by different Names, The Father-God, and God the Son. 7 Then let the Name of Christ our King With equal Honours be ador'd; His Praise let every Angel sing, And all the Nations own the Lord.

Can Creatures to pPerfection find

Hymnal: ACNH1765 #LXXI (1765) Lyrics: 1 Can Creatures to Perfection find Th' eternal, uncreated Mind; Or can the largest Stretch of Thought Measure and search his Nature out! 2 'Tis high as Heav'n, 'tis deep as Hell And what can mortals know or tell? His Glory spreads beyond the Sky, And all the shining Worlds on high. 3 But Nan, vain Nan, would fain be wise; Born like a wild young Colt, he flies Thro' all the Follies of his Mind, And smells, and snuffs the empty Wind. 4 God is a King of Power unknown, Firm are the Orders of his Throne; If He resolve, who dares oppose, Or ask Him why or what He does? 5 He wounds the Heart, and He makes whole; He calms the Tempest of the Soul; When he shuts up in long Despair, Who can remove the heavy Bar? 6 He frowns, and Darkness veils the Moon, The fainting Sun grows dim at Noon; The Pillars of Heav'n's starry Roof Tremble and start at his Reproof. 7 He gave the vaulted Heav'n its Form, The crooked Serpent, and the Worm; He breaks the Billows with his Breath, And smites the Sons of Pride to Death. 8 These are a Portion of his Ways; But who shall dare describe his Face? Who can endure his Light; or stand To hear the Thunders of his Hand? Scripture: Job 11:7-9 Languages: English
