Ye Virgin Souls, Arise
From heaven the Lord confess
Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 From heaven the Lord confess,
in heights his glory raise.
2 Him let all angels bless,
him all his armies praise.
3 Him glorify
Sun, moon, and stars;
4 ye higher spheres,
and cloudy sky.
5 Jehovah gave you birth,
him therefore glorious make;
to being ye came forth,
when he the word but spake.
6 And from that place,
where fixed you be
by his decree;
you cannot pass.
7 Praise him from earth below,
ye dragons, and ye deeps:
8 fire, hail, clouds, wind, and snow,
which in command he keeps.
9 Praise ye his name,
hills great and small,
trees low and tall,
10 beasts wild and tame.
All things that creep or fly,
11 kings, tribes of every tongue,
all princes mean or high,
12 both men and virgins young;
even young and old,
13 exalt his name;
for much his fame
should be extolled.
Jehovah's name be praised
above both earth and sky;
14 for he his saints hath raised,
and set their horn on high:
even those that be
of Israel's race,
near to his grace;
the Lord praise ye. Scripture: Psalm 148 Used With Tune: ST JOHN (HAVERGAL)

The Lord Jehovah reigns
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Appears in 269 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord Jehovah reigns,
his throne is built on high;
the garments he assumes
are light and majesty:
his glories shine with beams so bright
no mortal eye can bear the sight.
2 The thunders of his hand
keep the wide world in awe;
his wrath and justice stand
to guard his holy law;
and where his love resolves to bless
his truth confirms and seals his grace.
3 Through all his ancient works
amazing wisdom shines,
confounds the powers of hell
and breaks their cursed designs;
strong is his arm, and shall fulfil
his great decrees, his sovereign will.
4 And can this mighty King
of Glory condescend?
And will he write his name
My Father and my Friend?
I love his name, I love his word;
join, all my powers, and praise the Lord. Topics: Evil; Glory of God; Grace; Judgment of God; Law of God; Our Love to God; Providence; Salvation; Word of God Scripture: 1 Timothy 6:13-16 Used With Tune: ST JOHN
