The Hymnal

110 WARRINGTON L. M.

Rev. Ralph Harrison, 1784

1 Give to our God im- mor- tal praise; Mercy and truth are all His ways: Wonders of

063 4

grace to God

be long; Repeat His mercies in

your song. A - MEN.

2 Give to the Lord of lords renown; The King of kings with glory crown: His mercies ever shall endure,

When lords and kings are known no more.

3 He built the earth, He spread the sky,
And fixed the starry lights on high:
Wonders of grace to God belong;
Repeat His mercies in your song.

4 He fills the sun with morning light;
He bids the moon direct the night:
His mercies ever shall endure,
When suns and moons shall shine no more.

He sent His Son with power to save
From guilt, and darkness, and the grave:
Wonders of grace to God belong;
Repeat His mercies in your song.

6 Through this vain world He guides our feet,
And leads us to His heavenly seat:
His mercies ever shall endure,

When this vain world shall be no more.

111 (CHURCH TRIUMPHANT) L. M.

1 The Lord is King! lift up thy voice,
O earth; and all ye heavens, rejoice:
From world to world the joy shall ring,
"The Lord Omnipotent is King!"

2 The Lord is King! who then shall dare
Resist His will, distrust His care,
Or murmur at His wise decrees,
Or doubt His royal promises?

3 The Lord is King! Child of the dust,
The Judge of all the earth is just;
Holy and true are all His ways:
Let every creature speak His praise.

Psalm cxxxvi. Rev. Isaac Watts, 1719

4 O when His wisdom can mistake,
His might decay, His love forsake,
Then may His children cease to sing,
"The Lord Omnipotent is King!'

5 Alike pervaded by His eye,

All parts of His dominion lie;

This world of ours, and worlds unseen,
And thin the boundary between.

6 One Lord, one empire, all secures;
He reigns, and life and death are yours:
Through earth and heaven one song

shall ring,

"The Lord Omnipotent is King!"

Josiah Conder, 1824

Arr. from "Psalmodia Sacra," Gotha, 1715

1 God, my King, Thy might confess - ing,

Ever will I bless Thy Name;

$4 4

Day by day Thy throne ad-dress-ing, Still will I Thy praise pro-claim.

A-MEN.

2 Honor great our God befitteth;
Who His majesty can reach?
Age to age His works transmitteth,
Age to age His power shall teach.
3 They shall talk of all Thy glory,
On Thy might and greatness dwell,
Speak of Thy dread acts the story,
And Thy deeds of wonder tell.

4 Nor shall fail from memory's treasure
Works by love and mercy wrought;
Works of love surpassing measure,
Works of mercy passing thought.

5 Full of kindness and compassion,
Slow to anger, vast in love,
God is good to all creation;

All His works His goodness prove.

6 All Thy works, O Lord, shall bless Thee;
Thee shall all Thy saints adore:
King supreme shall they confess Thee,
And proclaim Thy sovereign power.

Psalm cxlv. Bishop Richard Mant, 1824

From world to world the joy shall ring, "The Lord Om-nip-o- tent is King!" A - MEN.

1 Lo! God is here: let us a - dore, And own how dread - ful is

this place;

Let all with - in

feel His power, And hum-bly bow before His face.

A - MEN.

2 Lo! God is here, whom day and night
United choirs of angels praise;
To Him, enthroned above all height,
The host of heaven their anthems raise.

Still may we stand before Thy face,
Still hear and do Thy sovereign will.

4 To Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,
The God whom earth and heaven adore,
From men and from the angel host
Be praise and glory evermore.
Gerhard Tersteegen, 1729. Trans. by Rev. John Wesley, 1739: alt. and arr.

3 Almighty Father, may our praise
Thy courts with grateful fragrance fill;
