The Lord is King! lift up thy voice

Author: Josiah Conder Appears in 256 hymnals Lyrics: 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! 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. 3 He reigns! ye saints, exalt your strains, Your God is King, your Father reigns; And he is at the Father's side, The man of love, the Crucified. 4 Come, make your wants, your burdens known, He will present them at the throne; And angel bands are waiting there, His messages of love to bear. 5 O when his wisdom can mistake, His might decay, his love forsake, Then may his children cease to sing, The Lord omnipotent is King!

The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know

Author: James Montgomery Appears in 595 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The Lord is my Shepherd, no want shall I know; I feed in green pastures, safe-folded I rest; He leadeth my soul where the still waters flow, Restores me when wandering, redeems when oppressed, Restores me when wandering, redeems when oppressed. 2 Through the valley and shadow of death though I stray, Since thou art my Guardian, no evil I fear; Thy rod shall defend me, thy staff be my stay; No harm can befall, with my Comforter near. 3 In the midst of affliction my table is spread With blessings unmeasured my cup runneth o'er; With perfume and oil thou anointest my head; O, what shall I ask of thy providence more? 4 Let goodness and mercy, my bountiful God, Still follow my steps till I meet thee above; I seek by the path which my forefathers trod, Through the land of their sojourn thy kingdom of love.

The starry firmament on high

Author: Robert Grant Appears in 79 hymnals Lyrics: 1 The starry firmament on high, And all the glories of the sky, Yet shine not to thy praise, O Lord, So brightly as thy written word. 2 The hopes that holy word supplies, Its truths divine and precepts wise, In each a heavenly beam I see, And every beam conducts to thee. 3 Almighty Lord, the sun shall fail, The moon her borrowed glory veil, And deepest reverence hush on high The joyful chorus of the sky. 4 But fixed for everlasting years, Unmoved amid the wreck of spheres, Thy word shall shine in cloudless day, When heaven and earth have passed away.

There is a book that all may read

Author: John Keble Appears in 184 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a book that all may read, Which heavenly truth imparts; And all the lore its scholars need, And all the lore its scholars need, Pure eyes and Christian hearts. 2 The works of God above, below, Within us, and around, Are pages in that book, to show How God himself is found. 3 The glorious sky, embracing all, Is like the Maker's love, Wherewith encompassed, great and small, In peace and order move. 4 The dew of heaven is like thy grace, It steals in silence down; But where it falls, the favored place By richest fruits is known. 5 Thou who has given me eyes to see, And love for what is fair, Give me a heart to find out thee, And read thee everywhere.

There is a fountain filled with blood

Author: William Cowper Appears in 2,486 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is a fountain filled with blood, Drawn from Immanuel's veins; And sinners plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains, Lose all their guilty stains. And sinners plunged beneath that flood, Lose all their guilty stains. 2 The dying thief rejoiced to see That fountain in his day; And there may I, though vile as he, Wash all my sins away. 3 Thou dying Lamb! thy precious blood Shall never lose its power, Till all the ransomed Church of God Are saved, to sin no more. 4 E'er since by faith I saw the stream Thy flowing wounds supply, Redeeming love has been my theme, And shall be till I die. 5 Lord, I believe thou hast prepared, Unworthy though I be, For me a blood-bought, free reward, A golden harp for me! 6 There in a nobler, sweeter song, I'll sing thy power to save, When this poor lisping, stammering tongue Is ransomed from the grave.

There is an eye that never sleeps

Author: John A. Wallace Appears in 184 hymnals Lyrics: 1 There is an eye that never sleeps Beneath the wing of night; There is an ear that never shuts When sink the beams of light. 2 There is an arm that never tires When human strength gives way; There is a love that never fails When earthly loves decay. 3 That eye is fixed on seraph throngs; That arm upholds the sky; That ear is filled with angel songs; That love is throned on high. 4 But there's a power which man can wield When mortal aid is vain, That eye, that arm, that love to reach, That listening ear to gain. 5 That power is prayer, which soars on high, Through Jesus, to the throne; And moves the hand which moves the world, To bring salvation down.
