With my whole Heart, my GOD and King

Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 With my whole Heart, my GOD and King, Thy worthy Praise I will proclaim; Before the GODS with Joy I'll sing, And ever bless thy holy Name. 2 I'll worship at thy sacred Seat; And, with thy Love divine inspir'd, The Praises of thy Truth repeat, Thy Truth through all thy Works admir'd. 3 Thou graciously inclin'd thine Ear, When I to thee address'd my cry; And when my Soul was press'd with Fear, Didst inward Strength to me supply. 4 Therefore shall ev'ry earthly Prince Thy Name with Prsise pursue; Whom these admir'd Events convince, That all thy Works are just and true. 5 They all thy wond'rous Ways, O LORD, With chearful Songs of Joy shall bless; And all thy glorious Acts record, And still thy awful Pow'r confess. 6 For GOD, although enthron'd on high, Does thence the Poor respect; The Proud far off, his scornful Eye, Beholds with ever just Neglect. 7 Though I with Trouble am oppress'd, He shall my spiteful Foes disarm; Relieve my Soul, when most distress'd, And keep me safe from ev'ry Harm. 8 The LORD, whose Mercies ever last, Shall fix my happy State; And mindful of his Favours past, Shall his own glorious Work compleat.

O come, loud Anthems let us sing

Appears in 258 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O come, loud Anthems let us sing, Loud Thanks to our Almighty King: For we our Voices high should raise, When our Salvation's Rock we praise. 2 Into his Presence let us haste To thank him for his Favours past; To him address in joyful Songs, The Praise that to his Name belongs. 3 For GOD the LORD, enthron'd in State, Is with unrivaled Glory great; A King superior far to all, Whom Gods the Heathen falsely call. 4 The Depths of Earth are in his Hand, Her secret Wealth at his Command; The Strength of Hills that threat the Skies, Subjected to his Empire lies. 5 The rolling Ocean's vast Abyss By the same sov'reign Right is his: 'Tis mov'd by his Almighty Hand, That form'd and fix'd the solid Land. 6 O let us to his Courts repair, And bow with Adoration there: Down on our Knees devoutly, all, Before the LORD our Maker fall. 7 For he's our GOD, our Shepherd he, His Flock and Pasture Sheep are we; If then you'll (like his Flock) draw near, To Day if you his Voice will hear. 8 Let not your harden'd Hearts renew, Your Fathers' Crimes and Judgments too; Nor here provoke my Wrath, as they, In desart Plains of Meribah. 9 When thro' the Wilderness they mov'd, And me with fresh Temptations prov'd, They still, thro' Unbelief, rebell'd, While they my wond'rous Works beheld. 10 They forty Years my Patience griev'd, Tho' daily I their Wants reliev'd: Then--'Tis a faithless Race, I said, Whose Hearts from me have always stray'd; 11 They ne'er will tread my righteous Path, Therefore to them in settled Wrath, Since they despis'd my Rest, I sware, That they should never enter there.

Thy Mercies, LORD, shall be my Song

Appears in 23 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Thy Mercies, LORD, shall be my Song; My Song on them shall ever dwell; To Ages yet unborn my Tongue Thy never-failing Truth shall tell. 2 I have affirm'd and still maintain, Thy Mercy shall for ever last; Thy Truth that does the Heav'ns sustain, Like them shall stand for ever fast. 3 Thus spak'st thou by thy Prophet's Voice: "With David I a League have made; "To him, my Servant, and my Choice, "By solemn Oath this Grant convey'd: 4 "While Earth, and Seas, and Skies endure, "Thy Seed shall in my Sight remain; "To them thy Throne I will ensure; "They shall to endless Ages reign." 5 For such stupendous Truth and Love, Both Heav'n and Earth just Praises owe, By Choirs of Angels sung above, And by assembled Saints below. 6 What Seraph of celestial Birth To vie with Israel's GOD shall dare? Or who among the Gods of Earth, With our Almighty LORD compare? 7 With Rev'rence and religious Dread, His Saints should to his Temple press; His Fear thro' all their Hearts should spread, Who his Almighty Name confess. 8 LORD GOD of Armies, who can boast Of Strength or Pow'r, like thine renown'd; Of such a num'rous Faithful Host, As that which does thy Throne surround? 9 Thou dost the lawless Sea controul, And change the prospect of the Deep; Thou mak'st the sleeping Billows roll, Thou mak'st the rolling Billows sleep. 10 Thou brak'st in Pieces Rahab's Pride, And did'st op0pressing Pow'r disarm: Thy scatter'd Foes have dearly try'd The Force of thy resistless Arm. 11 In the, the sov'reign Right remains Of Earth and Heav'n; thee, Lord, alone The World and all that it contains, Their Maker and Preserver own. 12 The Poles on which the Globe does rest, Were form'd by thy creating Voice; Tabor and Hermon, East and West In thy sustaining Pow'r rejoice. 13 Thy Arm is mighty, strong thy Hand, Yet, LORD, thou dost with Justice reign; Posses'd of absolute Command, Thou Truth and Mercy dost maintain. 14 Happy, thrice happy they, who hear Thy sacred Trumpet's joyful Sound; Who may at Festivals appear, With thy most glorious Presence crown'd. 15 Thy Saints shall always be o'erjoy'd, Who on thy sacred Name rely; And, in thy Righteousness employ'd, Above their Foes be rais'd on high. 16 For in thy Strength they shall advance, Whose Conquests from thy Favour spring: The LORD of Hosts is our Defence, And Israel's GOD our Israel's King. 17 Thus spak'st thou by thy Prophet's Voice; "A mighty Champion I will send, "From Judah's Tribe have I made Choice "Of one who shall the rest defend. 18 "My Servant David I have found, "With holy Oil anointed him; "Him shall the Hand support that crown'd, "And guard that gave the Diadem. 19 "No Prince from him shall Tribute force, "No Son of Strife shall him annoy; "His spiteful Foes I will disperse, "And them before his Face destroy. 20 "My Truth and Grace shall him sustain; "His Armies, in well order'd Ranks, "Shall conquer, from the Tyrian Main, "To Tigris and Euphrates' Banks. 21 "Me for his Father he shall take, "His GOD and Rock of Safety call; "Him I my first-born Son will make, "And eartnly Kings his Subjects all. 22 "To him my Mercy I'll secure, "My Cov'nant make for ever fast. 29 "His Seed for ever shall endure; "His Throne 'till Heav'n dissolves shall last. Part II 23 "But if his Heirs my Law forsake, "And from my sacred Precepts stray; "If they my righteous Statutes break, "Nor strictly my Commands obey; 24 "Their Sins I'll visit with a Rod, "And for their Folly make them smart; "Yet will not cease to be their GOD, "Nor from my Truth, like them, depart. 25 "My Cov'nant I will ne'er revoke; "But in Remembrance fast retain; "The Thing that once my Lips have spoke, "Shall in eternal Force remain. 26 "Once have I sworn, but once for all, "And made my Holiness the Tie, "That I my Grant will ne'er recal, "Nor to my Servant David lie. 27 "Whose Throne and Race the constant Sun, "Shall, like his Course, establish'd see; "Of this, my Oath, thou conscious Moon, "In Heav'n my faithful Witness be." 28 Such was thy gracious Promise, LORD; But thou hast now our Tribes forsook, Thy own Anointed hast abhorr'd, And turn'd on him thy wrathful Look. 29 Thou seemest to have render'd void, The Cov'nant with thy Servant made: Thou hast his Dignity destroy'd, And in the Dust his Honour laid. 30 Of strong Holds thou hast him bereft, And brought his Bulwarks to decay; His frontier Coasts defenceeless left, A public Scorn, and common Prey. 31 His Ruin does glad Triumphs yield To Foes advanc'd by Thee to Might; Thou hast his conqu'ring Sword unsteel'd, His Valour turn'd to shameful Flight. 32 His Glory is to Darkness fled, His Throne is levll'd with the Ground; His Youth to wretched Bondage led, With Shame o'erwhelm'd and Sorrow drown'd. 33 How long shall we thy Absence mourn? Wilt thou for ever, LORD, retire? Shall thy consuming Anger burn, 'Till that and we at once expire? 34 Consider, LORD, how short a Space Thou dost for mortal Life ordain; No Method to prolong the Race, But loading it with Grief and Pain. 35 What Man is he that can controul Death's strict unalterable Doom? Or rescue from the Grave his Soul, The Grave that must Mankind intomb? 36 LORD, where's thy Love, thy boundless Grace, The Oath to which thy Truth did seal; Consign'd to David and his Race, The Grant which Time should ne'er repeal? 37 See how thy Servants treated are With Infamy, Reproach and Spite, Which in my silent Breast I bear From Nations of licentious Might. 38 How they reproaching thy great Name, Have made thy Servants Hope their Jest: Yet thy just praises we'll proclaim, And ever sing, the LORD be blest.

O LORD, I am not proud of Heart

Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O LORD, I am not proud of Heart, Nor do I cast a scornful Eye; And my aspiring Thoughts. I ne'er Employ in Things for me to high. 2 With infant Innocence, thou know'st I always have my self demean'd; Compos'd to Quiet, like a Babe, That from it's Mother's Breast is wean'd. 3 Like me, let Israel hope in GOD, Let them his Aid alone implore; Both now and ever trust in him, Who lives and reigns for evermore.
