Morning Has Broken
Great Ruler of the earth and skies
Author: Steele Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 93 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 65:7 Lyrics: 1 Great Ruler of the earth and skies,
A word of thine almighty breath
Can sink the world, or bid it rise:
Thy smile is life, thy frown is death.
2 When angry nations rush to arms,
And rage, and noise, and tumult reign,
And war resounds its dire alarms,
And slaughter dyes the hostile plain--
3 Thy sov'reign eye looks calmly down,
And marks their course, and bounds their power;
Thy law the angry nations own,
And noise and war are heard no more.
4 Then peace returns with balmy wing;--
Sweet peace, with her what blessings fled!
Glad plenty laughs, the valleys sing,
Reviving commerce lifts her head.
5 To thee we pay our grateful songs;
Thy kind protection still implore:
Oh, may our hearts, and lives, and tongues
Confess thy goodness, and adore. Topics: The Christian Nation At Peace; Thanksgiving for National Peace
Great Ruler of the earth and skies
Now to the power of God supreme
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 90 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 65:5-13 Lyrics:
Now to the power of God supreme
Be everlasting honors giv'n;
He saves from hell, (we bless his name,)
He calls our wand'ring feet to heav'n.
Not for our duties or deserts,
But of his own abounding grace,
He works salvation in our hearts,
And forms a people for his praise.
'Twas his own purpose that begun
To rescue rebels doomed to die;
He gave us grace in Christ his Son
Before he spread the starry sky.
Jesus the Lord appears at last,
And makes his Father's counsels known;
Declares the great transactions past,
And brings immortal blessings down.
He dies, and in that dreadful night
Did all the powers of hell destroy;
Rising, he brought our heav'n to light,
And took possession of the joy.

Now to the power of God supreme
Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem
Author: Job Hupton, 1762-1849; John Mason Neale, 1818-1866 Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 81 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 65:1 Lyrics: 1 Come, ye faithful, raise the anthem,
cleave the skies with shouts of praise;
sing to him who found the ransom,
Ancient of eternal days,
God of God, the Word incarnate,
whom the heav'n of heav'n obeys.
2 Ere he raised the lofty mountains,
formed the seas, or built the sky,
love eternal, free and boundless,
moved the Lord of life to die,
fore-ordained the Prince of princes
for the throne of Calvary.
3 There, for us and our redemption,
see him all his life-blood pour!
There he wins our full salvation,
dies that we may die no more;
then arising, lives for ever,
reigning where he was before.
4 High on yon celestial mountains
stands his sapphire throne, all bright,
midst unending alleluias
bursting from the saints in light;
Sion's people tell his praises,
victor after hard-won fight.
5 Bring your harps, and bring your incense,
sweep the string and pour the lay;
let the earth proclaim his wonders,
King of that celestial day;
he the Lamb once slain is worthy,
who was dead, and lives for ay.
6 Laud and honour to the Father,
laud and honour to the Son,
laud and honour to the Spirit,
ever Three and ever One,
consubstantial, co-eternal,
while unending ages run.

Great King of Nations, Hear Our Prayer
Author: John H. Gurney Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 74 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 65:2 Lyrics: 1 Great King of nations, hear our prayer
While at Thy feet we fall
And humbly with united cry
To Thee for mercy call.
The guilt is ours, but grace is Thine,
Oh, turn us not away,
But hear us from Thy lofty throne
And help us when we pray.
2 Our fathers’ sins were manifold,
And ours no less we own;
Yet wondrously from age to age
Thy goodness has been shown.
When dangers, like a stormy sea,
Beset our country round,
To Thee we looked, to Thee we cried,
And help in Thee was found.
3 With one consent we meekly bow
Beneath Thy chast'ning hand
And, pouring forth confession meet,
Mourn with our mourning land.
With pitying eye behold our need
As thus we lift our prayer;
Correct us with Thy judgments, Lord,
Then let Thy mercy spare.
Amen. Topics: Times and Seasons The Nation Used With Tune: OLD 137TH

Man lobt dich in der Stille
Author: Johann Rist Appears in 35 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 65:2 Lyrics: 1 Man lobt dich in der Stille,
du hocherhabner Zionsgott;
des Rühmens ist die Fülle
vor dir, o Herre Zebaoth.
Du bist doch, Herr, auf Erden
der Frommen Zuversicht,
in Trübsal und Beschwerden
läßt du die Deinen nicht.
Drum soll dich stündlich ehren
mein Mund vor jedermann
und deinen Ruhm vermehren,
so lang er lallen kann.
2 Es müssen, Herr, sich freuen
von ganzer Seel und jauchzen hell,
die unaufhörlich schreien:
"Gelobt sei der Gott Israel'!"
Sein Name sei gepriesen,
der große Wunder tut
und der auch mir erwiesen
das, was mir nütz und gut.
Nun, dies ist meine Freude,
zu hangen fest an dir,
daß nichts von dir mich scheide,
solang ich lebe hier.
3 Herr, du hast deinen Namen
sehr herrlich in der Welt gemacht;
denn als die Schwachen kamen,
hast du gar bald an sie gedacht.
Du hast mir Gnad erzeiget;
nun, wie vergelt ich's dir?
Ach bleibe mir geneiget,
so will ich für und für
den Kelch des Heils erheben
und preisen weit und breit
dich hier, mein Gott, im Leben
und dort in Ewigkeit. Topics: Glaube - Liebe - Hoffnung Loben und Danken Used With Tune: [Man lobt dich in der Stille]
