To GOD be endless Praise addressed

Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 To GOD be endless Praise addressed, Because his Mercies ne'er decay; That he hath us with Favour blessed, Let thankful Isr'el ever say: And for the Love he's still extedning, Let Aaron's House their Joy express; His Truth and Goodness never ending. Let all who fear the LORD confess. 2 My Soul to GOD her Pray'r addressed, Who graciously vouchsaf'd to hear; Since he relieves me, when oppressed, Why should I any Mortal fear? My Foes, no doubt, shall be disgraced, Since GOD declares himself my Friend; Our Hopes should all in him be placed, And not on human Pow'r depend. 3 Though many Nations, close combined, Did oftentimes beset me round; Yet I my Cause to him resigned, Who did their boasted Strength confound. They swarm'd like Bees, and me defied, Their Rage was like a short-liv'd Blaze; For, whilst on GOD I still relied, I overcame them all with Ease. 4 When they their utmost Force exerted, In hopes to see my sudden Fall; The LORD, who never me deserted, In Mercy sav'd me from them all. That I've escap'd from Tribulation, To him alone the Praise belongs; He is my Strength, and my Salvation; He is the Theme of all my Songs. 5 The Just, with Joy, are ever praising The LORD, who saves their souls from Harm; For wond'rous Things and Works amazing, Are done by his Almighty Arm. His strong Right Hand he hath extended, And never-fading Honours won; His strong Right Hand hath us defended, And most surprizing Wonders done. 6 Though Death draws nigh, my Soul dismaying, Yet GOD shall still prolong my Days; That I his mighty Works displaying, May thus advance his glorious Praise. When GOD, with heavy Hand correcting, My Soul of all her Joy bereaves; Ev'n then, his Mercy me protecting, From Death my fainting Life retrieves. 7 Then let the Gates be wide extended, The Gates, to which the Just repair, That I, whom GOD hath thus defended, May praise my great Deliv'rer there. With Footsteps to those Gates directed, To which in Crouds the Righteous press, Since thou hast heard, and me protected, Thy holy Name, O LORD, I'll bless. 8 That which the Builders once despised, Is now become the Corner-Stone; This Wonder, LORD, thou hast devised, This wond'rous Work is thine alone! This Day is GOD's, let Songs ascending To Heav'n, be sent from ev'ry Voice: LORD, be thy Arm our Cause defending, And make us still in thee rejoice. 9 Who trusts in GOD, to be supported, Ev'n him let all th' Assembly bless; We, who have to his House resorted, Do freely wish you good Success. GOD is the LORD, in whose Salvation, We all both Light and Comfort find; Fast to the Horns, with Adoration, The Altar's Horns, the Victim bind. 10 Thou art my GOD, and I with Pleasure, Will ever praise thy holy Name; Thou art my GOD, my soul's great Treasure, Therefore I'll celebrate thy Fame! Oh, to the LORD be Praise addressed, Who doth so kind and gracious prove; For us, his People, he hath blessed, And crown'd with never ending Love.

With new made Songs, let GOD be praised

Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 With new-made Songs, let GOD be praised, Who wondrous Things for us hath done With his Right Hand and Arm upraised,, A glorious Conquest he has won. The LORD, hat to the World, dismayed, Declar'd his Strength and saving Might, He hath his righteous Acts displayed, Before th' astonish'd Heathens Sight. 2 The LORD, in Love and Truth excelling, Of Israel's House hath mindful been; And Nations in Earth's Corners dwelling, The saving Pow'r of GOD have seen. Let Earth's Inhabitants, combining, To him their joyful Voices raise; Let all in Songs of Triumph joining, Loudly resound their Maker's Praise. 3 With many tuneful Harps surrounding, Let them into the Concert bring, Trumpets and Cornets, shrilly sounding, And hymn glad Praises to their King: Let the loud Ocean roar, transported, With all that spacious Seas contain, Be Earth's Inhabitants exhorted, To join in Praise the noisy Main. 4 Let Streams, thro' fertile Meadows bounding, In larger Torrents dance and play; Let Hills and Vales their Joy resounding, Far off redoubled Shouts convey: To welcome down the King renowned, Who does in awful Triumph come, With never fading Glory crowned, With Justice to reward or doom.

From distant Times thou hast remained

Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 From distant Times thou hast remained, O LORD, our sure abiding Place; And by thy mighty Arm sustained, From Age to Age, thy chosen Race. Before the lofty Hills appeared, Or e'er thy Pow'r the Earth did frame, Thou wert as LORD supreme revered; And thou art evermore the same. 2 Frail Man, at thy fierce Indignation, Is turn'd to Dust, of which he's made; And when thou wouldst renew his Station, Thy Will is instantly obey'd. A Thousand Years to thee not seeming, Longer than as a fleeting Day, Or Midnight Watch, to Men when dreaming, Whose Hours in Silence waste away. 3 Thou sweep'st us off by thy great Power, We vanish hence like airy Dreams; At first we grow like some fair Flower That feels the Sun's refreshing Beams: But howsoever fresh and blooming, Its Beauty in the Morning shows, 'Tis soon cut down, and Flames consuming, Destroy it e'er the Ev'ning close. 4 We by thine Anger are distressed, And at thy Wrath we are dismay'd; Our Crimes, whene'er we have transgressed, Are all before thy Presence laid. Thy dreadful Indignation lasting, Our drooping Days in Grief we spend; Our Years in pining Sorrow wasting, Break off like Tales that quickly end. 5 Our Term in Sev'nty Years is ended, An Age which very few survive; But if that Term should be extended, And we at Eighty should arrive; Yet then our boasted Vigour failing, We waste away in Grief and Pain, The Hand of Death is soon prevailing, And we no longer may remain. Part II 6 But who, O LORD, thy sore Displeasure Does with a due Regard revere? And yet thou dost thine Anger measure, As more or less we learn to fear. LORD! let us be by thee respected, And teach us our short Date to mind; That, by true Wisdom still directed, Our Hearts may be to GOD inclin'd. 7 Turn thee, O GOD, to us distressed, And to thy Servants gracious be; Let us with Mercy soon be blessed, And make us still rejoice in thee. Since thou hast us with Sorrows vexed, LORD, wipe away our former Tears; And let us be no more perplexed, But comfort us with happier Years. 8 Let this thy wond'rous Work displayed, To all thy Servants, LORD< be shown; And, down to distant Times conveyed, O let thy glorious Pow'r be known! Be thy bright Rays to us inclined, And kindly give our Work Success; The glorious Work we have designed, Do thou, O LORD, vouchsafe to bless.
