God, bind the oceans in a chain

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #61 (2014) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: God, bind the oceans in a chain, that they not drown the earth again. The swelling waves must keep your ways, and in their channels fill the seas; from there, conveyed by secret veins, spring forth on hills, and drench the plains. God, you are great! No tongue can frame an honor equal to your name! God, hold creation in your hand, poised and secure, it thus shall stand. You set the sun its circling race, appoint the moon to change its face; and when thick darkness veils the day, send winds to blow the clouds away. Vast are your works, Almighty Lord, all nature rests upon your word. Let every race of creatures stand, to gain its portion from your hand; all those that trust will see your face; you bless them with your sovereign grace. In you my hopes and wishes meet, and make my meditation sweet; my soul shall sing with joy and praise, as it fulfills its length of days. Scripture: Psalm 104 Languages: English Tune Title: BADES

Give thanks to God, invoke his name

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #62 (2014) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: Give thanks to God, invoke his name, and tell the world his grace; sound through the earth his deeds of fame, that all may seek his face. Let God alone choose out our way and mark our journeys right, and give a leading cloud by day, a fiery guide by night. God blessed the race of Abraham, and made the blessing sure. The endless mercies of the Lamb shall prove that grace endures. Then let the world give up its rage, nor put a church in fear; let lives be lived through every age in the Almighty's care. Scripture: Psalm 105 Languages: English Tune Title: PLEASANTBURG

The songs of all our praise belong

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #65 (2014) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Lyrics: The songs of all our praise belong to you, Almighty God; I give my heart, I give my tongue, to spread your name abroad. How great the works your hands have wrought! How glorious in our sight! The wise in every age have sought your wonders with delight. How most exact is nature's frame! how wise th' Eternal Mind! Your counsels need not change the scheme that your first thoughts designed. All nature, time, and earth, and skies, proclaim your heavenly skill; we need your truth to make us wise, obedient, to your will. God, You redeem your chosen ones; your covenant is strong. The orders that your lips pronounce will keep us free from wrong. Your Son, the great Redeemer, came with ways both just and pure; and holy, reverent is his name; he makes our path secure.

Let all delight to serve you, Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: IMAS2014 #66 (2014) Lyrics: Let all delight to serve you, Lord, The honours of your name record, and ever bless your sacred name. Where e'er the circling sun displays its rising beams or setting rays, the lands and seas will do the same. Nor time nor nature's narrow rounds can give your vast dominion bounds; the heavens are far below your heights; our own created works won’t dare to think with yours they can compare; your power shows all-creating might! You bow your glorious head to view what all the hosts of angels do, and bend your care to earthly things; your sovereign hand exalts the poor, receives the humble at your door and makes them company for kings. Scripture: Psalm 113 Languages: English Tune Title: CHARLOTTE HALL

If you behold me sore distressed, you bid my pains remove; I'll turn my soul to you, my rest, and witness to your love. Scripture: Psalm 116 Languages: English Tune Title: JOYELCRIST
