To Thee, O God, We Render Thanks

Hymnal: PsH1934 #151 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 To Thee, O God, we render thanks, To Thee give thanks sincere, Because Thy wondrous works declare That Thou art ever near. 2 Thy righteous judgment, Thou hast said, Shall in due time appear, And Thou Who didst establish it Wilt fill the earth with fear. 3 Thou teachest meekness to the proud, And makest sinners know That none is Judge but God alone, To honor or bring low. 4 Jehovah holds a cup of wrath, And holds it not in vain, For all the wicked of the earth Its bitter dregs shall drain. 5 The God of Israel I will praise And all His glory show; The righteous He will high exalt And bring the wicked low.

God is Known Among His People

Hymnal: PsH1934 #152 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Lyrics: 1 God is known among His people, Every mouth His praises fill; From of old He has established His abode on Zion's hill; There He broke the sword and arrow, Bade the noise of war be still. 2 Excellent and glorious art Thou, With Thy trophies from the fray; Thou hast slain the the valiant-hearted, Wrapt in sleep of death are they; When Thy anger once is risen, Who can stand in that dread day? 3 When from heaven Thy sentence sounded, All the earth in fear was still, While to save the meek and lowly God in judgement wrought His will; E'en the wrath of man shall praise Thee, Thy design it shall fulfil. 4 Vow and pay ye to Jehovah, Him your God forever own; All men, bring your gifts before Him; Worship Him, and Him alone; Mighty kings obey and fear Him, Princes bow before His throne.

To God Will I Direct My Prayer

Hymnal: PsH1934 #153 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 To God will I direct my prayer, And He will make my needs His care; I trust Him still, though in my grief No answer yet has brought relief; With hands stretched out through all the night, Uncomforted I sought for light. 2 The thought of God brought me no peace, But rather made my fears increase; With sleepless eyes and speechless pain My fainting spirit grieved in vain; The blessedness of long ago Made deeper still my present woe. 3 Recalling days when faith was bright, When songs of gladness filled my night, I pondered o'er my grievous woes And searching questioning arose: Will God cast off, and nevermore His favor to my soul restore? 4 I asked in fear and bitterness: Will God forsake me in distress? Shall I His promise faithless find? Has God forgotten to be kind? Has He in anger hopelessly Removed His love and grace from me? 5 These doubts and fears that troubled me Were born of my infirmity; Though I am weak, God is most high, And on His goodness I rely; Of all His wonders I will tell, And on His deeds my thoughts shall dwell.

O God, Most Holy Are Thy Ways

Hymnal: PsH1934 #154 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 O God, most holy are Thy ways, And who like Thee deserves my praise? Thou only doest wondrous things, The whole wide world Thy glory sings; Thy outstretched arm Thy people saved, Tho' sore distressed and long enslaved. 2 O God, from Thee the waters fled, The depths were moved with mighty dread, The swelling clouds their torrents poured, And o'er the earth the tempest roared; 'Mid lightning's flash and thunder's sound Great trembling shook the solid ground. 3 Thy way was in the sea, O God, Through mighty waters, deep and broad. None understood but God alone, To man Thy footsteps were unknown; But safe Thy people Thou didst keep, Almighty Shepherd of Thy sheep.

I Thought upon the Days of Old

Hymnal: PsH1934 #155 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 I thought upon the days of old, The years departed long, I held communion with my heart, By night recalled my song. 2 My heart inquired with anxious care, Will God forever spurn? Shall we no more His favor see? Will mercy ne'er return? 3 Forever shall His promise fail? Has God forgotten grace? Has He withdrawn His tender love, In anger hid His face? 4 These doubts are my infirmity, My thoughts at once reply; I call back years of God's right hand, The years of God Most High. 5 I will commemorate, O Lord, Thy wondrous deeds of old, And meditate upon Thy works Of power and grace untold. 6 O God, most holy is Thy way, Most perfect, good, and right; Thou art the only living God, The God of wondrous might.

My People, Give Ear, Attend to My Word

Hymnal: PsH1934 #157 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word, In parables new deep truths shall be heard; The wonderful story our fathers made known To children succeeding by us must be shown. 2 Instructing our sons we gladly record The praises, the works, the might of the Lord, For He has commanded that what He has done Be passed in tradition from father to son. 3 Let children thus learn from history’s light To hope in our God and walk in His sight, The God of their fathers to fear and obey, And ne’er like their fathers to turn from His way. 4 The story be told, to warn and restrain, Of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain, Of soldiers who faltered when battle was near, Who kept not God’s covenant nor walked in His fear. 5 God’s wonderful works to them He had shown, His marvelous deeds their fathers had known; He made for their pathway the waters divide, His glorious pillar of cloud was their guide. 6 He gave them to drink, relieving their thirst, And forth from the rock caused water to burst; Yet faithless they tempted their God, and they said, Can He who gave water supply us with bread? 7 Jehovah was wroth because they forgot To hope in their God, and trusted Him not; Yet gracious, He opened the doors of the sky And rained down the manna in richest supply. 8 With bread from on high their need He supplied, And more did He do when thankless they sighed; The strong winds commanding from south and from east, He sent them abundance of quail for their feast. 9 Though well they were filled, their folly they chose, Till God in His wrath o’erwhelmed them with woes; He slew of their strongest and smote their young men, But still unbelieving they sinned even then. 10 Because of their sin He smote with His rod, And then they returned and sought for their God; Their Rock and Redeemer was God the Most High, Yet false were their praises, their promise a lie. 11 Not right with their God in heart and in will, They faithlessly broke His covenant still; But He, in compassion, reluctant to slay, Forgave them and oft turned His anger away. 12 His pity was great, though often they sinned, For they were but flesh, a swift passing wind; Yet though His compassion and grace they beheld, They tempted and grieved Him and often rebelled. 13 They limited God, the Most Holy One, And hindered the work His grace had begun; The hand that was mighty to save they forgot, The day of redemption remembering not. 14 Ungrateful and blind, no longer they thought Of wonders and signs and mighty deeds wrought, Of how all the rivers of Egypt ran red, And plagues in God’s anger were heaped on their head. 15 They thought not of how, their freedom to gain, In Egypt’s abodes the first-born were slain, And how all God’s people were led forth like sheep, The flock He delighted in safety to keep.

My People, Give Ear, Attend to My Word

Hymnal: PsH1934 #158 (1934) Meter: 10.10.11.11 Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word, In parables new deep truths shall be heard; The wonderful story our fathers made known To children succeeding by us must be shown. 2 Unharmed through the sea, where perished their foe, He caused them with ease and safety to go; His holy land gaining, in peace they were brought To dwell in the mountain the Lord’s hand had bought. 3 He gave them the land, a heritage fair; The nations that dwelt in wickedness there He drove out before them with great overthrow, And gave to His people the tents of the foe. 4 Again they rebelled and tempted the Lord, Unfaithful they turned to idols abhorred, And God in His anger withdrew from them then, No longer delighting to dwell among men. 5 He gave them to death in battle, although His glory and strength were scorned by the foe; Their young men were fallen, their maidens unwed, Their priests slain in battle, none wept for the dead. 6 Then mercy awoke, the Lord in His might Returned, and the foes were scattered in flight; Again to His people His favor He showed, And chose in Mount Zion to fix His abode. 7 His servant He called, a shepherd of sheep, From tending his flock, the people to keep; So David, their shepherd, with wisdom and might Protected and fed them and led them aright.

O Come, Ye People, to My Law

Hymnal: PsH1934 #159 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: 1 O come, my people, to my law Attentively give ear; With willing heart and teachable The words of wisdom hear. My mouth shall speak in parables Of hidden truths of old, Which, handed down from age to age, To us our fathers told. 2 We will not from their children hide Jehovah's worthy praise, But tell the greatness of His strength, His wondrous works and ways. A testimony and a law The Lord our God decreed, And bade our fathers teach their sons, That they His ways might heed. 3 He willed that each succeeding race His deeds might learn and know, That children's children to their sons Might all these wonders show. Let children learn God's righteous ways And on Him stay their heart, That they may not forget His works Nor from His ways depart.

In Thy Heritage the Heathen

Hymnal: PsH1934 #160 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Lyrics: 1 In Thy heritage the heathen Now, O God, triumphant stand; They defile Thy holy temple, They destroy Thy chosen land; Ruthless, they have slain Thy servants, They have caused Thy saints to mourn; In the sight of all about us We endure reproach and scorn. 2 O how long against Thy people Shall Thy anger burn, O Lord? On Thy enemies, the heathen, Be Thy indignation poured; Smite the kingdoms that defy Thee, Calling not upon Thy Name; They have long devoured Thy people And have swept Thy land with flame. 3 O remember not against us Evil by our fathers wrought; Haste to help us in Thy mercy, Near to ruin we are brought; Help us, God of our salvation, For the glory of Thy Name; For Thy Name's sake come and save us, Take away our sin and shame. 4 Let Thy foes no longer scorn Thee, Now avenge Thy servants slain; Loose the prisoner, save the dying, All Thy enemies restrain; Then Thy flock, Thy chosen people, Unto Thee Thy thanks shall raise, And to every generation We will sing Thy glorious praise.
