The Lord Jehovah reigns

Author: Isaac Watts 1674-1748 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 269 hymnals Used With Tune: CHRISTCHURCH

Author: Ann T. Gilbert Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 112 hymnals First Line: When little Samuel woke Lyrics: 1. When little Samuel woke, And heard his Maker’s voice, At every word He spoke, How much did he rejoice; O blessèd, happy child! to find, The God of Heav’n so mild and kind. 2. If God would speak to me, And say He was my friend, How happy I should be! Oh! how would I attend! The smallest sin I then should fear, If God Almighty were so near. 3. And does He never speak? Oh! yes; for in His Word He bids me come and seek The God whom Samuel heard: In almost every page I see, The God of Samuel calls to me. 4. And I, beneath His care, May safely rest my head; I know that God is there, To guard my humble bed: And every sin I may well fear, Since God Almighty is so near. 5. Like Samuel, let me say, Whene’er I read His Word, Speak, Lord, I would obey The voice that Samuel heard; And when I in Thy house appear, Speak, for Thy servant waits to hear.

The Atoning Work Is Done

Author: Thomas Kelly Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The atoning work is done, The victim’s blood is shed; And Jesus now is gone His people’s cause to plead: He stands in Heaven their great high priest, And bears their names upon His breast. 2. He sprinkles with His blood The mercy-seat above; For justice had withstood The purposes of love: But justice now objects no more, And mercy yields her boundless store. 3. No temple made with hands His place of service is; In Heaven itself He stands, A heavenly priesthood His: In Him the shadows of the law Are all fulfilled, and now withdraw. 4. And though awhile He be Hid from the eyes of men, His people look to see Their great high priest again: In brightest glory He will come, And take His waiting people home.

Before the Lord we bow

Author: Francis Scott Key Appears in 74 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Before the Lord we bow, The God who reigns above, And rules the world below Boundless in power and love; Our thanks we bring In joy and praise, Our hearts we raise To heaven's high King. 2 The nation Thou hast blest, May well Thy love declare, From foes and fears at rest, Protected by Thy care. For this fair land, For this bright day, Our thanks we pay,-- Gifts of Thy hand. 3 May every mountain height, Each vale and forest green, Shine in Thy Word's pure light, And its rich fruits be seen! May every tongue Be tuned to praise, And join to raise A grateful song. 4 Earth! hear thy Maker's voice, The great Redeemer own; Believe, obey, rejoice, And worship Him alone. Cast down thy pride, Thy sin deplore, And bow before The Crucified. 5 And when in power He comes, O may our native land, From all its rending tombs, Send forth a glorious band, A countless throng, Ever to sing To heaven's high King Salvation's song.
