God of mercy, God of grace!

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #71 (1918) Lyrics: 1 God of mercy, God of grace! Show the brightness of Thy face; Shine upon us, Savior, shine; Fill Thy Church with light divine, And Thy saving health extend Unto earth's remotest end. 2 Let the people praise Thee, Lord! Be by all that live adored; Let the nations shout and sing Glory to their Lord and King; At Thy feet their tribute pay, And Thy holy will obey. 3 Let the people praise Thee, Lord! Earth shall then her fruits afford, God to man His blessing give, Man to God devoted live; All below and all above One in joy, and light and love. Topics: Praise Languages: English

When all Thy mercies, O my God

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #72 (1918) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 When all Thy mercies, O my God, My rising soul surveys, Transported with the view, I'm lost In wonder, love, and praise. 2 Ten thousand thousand precious gifts My daily thanks employ; Nor is the least a cheerful heart That tastes those gifts with joy. 3 Through every period of my life Thy goodness I'll pursue; And after death, in distant worlds, The glorious theme renew. 4 When nature fails, and day and night Divide Thy works no more, My ever grateful heart, O Lord, Thy mercies shall adore. 5 Through all eternity to Thee A grateful song I'll raise; But oh! eternity's too short To utter all Thy praise.

I'll praise my Maker whilst I've breath

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #73 (1918) Lyrics: 1 I'll praise my Maker whilst I've breath: And when my voice is lost in death, Praise shall employ my nobler powers: My days of praise shall ne'er be past, While life and thought and being last, Or immortality endures. 2 Happy the man whose hopes rely On Israel's God, who made the sky, And earth, and seas, with all their train; His truth forever stands secure; He saves th'oppressed, He feeds the poor; And none shall find His promise vain. 3 The Lord gives eyesight to the blind; The Lord supports the sinking mind; He sends the laboring conscience peace; He helps the stranger in distress, The widow and the fatherless, And grants the prisoner sweet release. 4 I'll praise Him while He lends me breath; And when my voice is lost in death, Praise shall employ my nobler powers: My days of praise shall ne'er be past, While life and thought and being last, Or immortality endures.

Through all the changing scenes of life

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #75 (1918) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Through all the changing scenes of life, In trouble and in joy, The praises of my God shall still My heart and tongue employ. 2 Of His deliverance I will boast, Till all that are distrest From my example comfort take, And charm their griefs to rest. 3 O magnify the Lord with me, With me exalt His name! When in distress on Him I called, He to my rescue came. 4 The hosts of God encamp around The dwellings of the just; Deliverance He affords to all Who on His succor trust. 5 O make but trial of His love: Experience will decide How blest are they and only they, Who in His truth confide. 6 Fear Him, ye Christians, you will then Have nothing else to fear; Make you His service your delight, Your wants shall be His care.

Nor let His mercies lie Forgotten in unthankfulness, And without praises die. 3 'Tis He forgives thy sins; 'Tis He relieves thy pain; 'Tis He that heals thy sicknesses And gives thee strength again. 4 He crowns thy life with love, When ransomed from the grave; He that redeemed my soul from death Hath sovereign power to save. 5 He fills the poor with good; He gives the sufferers rest: The Lord hath judgments for the proud, And justice for th'oppressed. 6 His wondrous works and ways He made by Moses known; But sent the world His truth and grace By His beloved Son.

My soul, repeat His praise

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #77 (1918) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 My soul, repeat His praise, Whose mercies are so great; Whose anger is so slow to rise, So ready to abate. 2 God will not always chide; And, when His wrath is felt, His strokes are fewer than our crimes, And lighter than our guilt. 3 High as the heavens are raised Above the ground we tread, So far the riches of His grace Our highest thoughts exceed. 4 His grace subdues our sins; And His forgiving love, Far as the east is from the west, Doth all our guilt remove. 5 The pity of the Lord, To those who fear His name, Is such as tender parents feel; He knows our feeble frame. 6 Our days are as the grass, Or like the morning flower; If one sharp blast sweep o'er the field, It withers in an hour. 7 But Thy compassions, Lord, To endless years endure; And children's children ever find Thy words of promise sure.

Before Jehovah's awful throne

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #78 (1918) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Before Jehovah’s awful throne, Ye nations, bow with sacred joy; Know that the Lord is God alone, He can create, and He destroy. 2 His sov'reign power, without our aid, Made us of clay, and formed us men; And when like wandering sheep we strayed, He brought us to His fold again. 3 We are His people, we His care, Our souls and all our mortal frame: What lasting honors shall we rear, Almighty Maker, to Thy name? 4 We’ll crowd Thy gates with thankful songs, High as the heavens our voices raise: And earth, with her ten thousand tongues, Shall fill Thy courts with sounding praise. 5 Wide as the world is Thy command, Vast as eternity Thy love; Firm as a rock Thy truth must stand, When rolling years shall cease to move.

From all that dwell below the skies

Hymnal: ELHL1918 #79 (1918) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 From all that dwell below the skies Let the Creator's praise arise; Let the Redeemer's name be sung, Through every land, by every tongue. 2 Eternal are Thy mercies, Lord; Eternal truth attends Thy Word, Thy praise shall sound from shore to shore, Till suns shall rise and set no more. 3 Your lofty themes, ye mortals, bring; In songs of praise divinely sing; The great salvation loud proclaim, And shout for joy the Savior's name. 4 In every land begin the song; To every land the strains belong; In cheerful sound all voices raise, And fill the world with loudest praise.
