God is Our Refuge and Our Strength

Hymnal: PsH1934 #91 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7.6.6.6.6.7 Lyrics: 1 God is our refuge and our strength, A Helper ever near us; We will not fear though earth be moved, For God is nigh to cheer us. Although the mountains quake And earth's foundations shake, Though angry billows roar And break against the shore, Our mighty God will hear us. 2 God's city is forever blest With living waters welling; Since God is there she stands unmoved 'Mid tumults round her swelling; God speaks and all is peace, From war the nations cease; The Lord of hosts is nigh, Our fathers' God Most High Is our eternal dwelling. 3 Behold what God has done on earth; His wrath brings desolation, His grace, commanding wars to cease, Brings peace to every nation; Be still, for He is Lord, By all the earth adored; The Lord of hosts is nigh, Our fathers' God Most High Is our strong habitation.

Hear This, All Ye People, Hear

Hymnal: PsH1934 #96 (1934) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Lyrics: 1 Hear this, all ye people, hear, Earth's inhabitants give ear; All of high and low degree, Rich and poor, give heed to me. 2 Truth with all my heart I seek, And my mouth shall wisdom speak; Hearken while in lyric strain I make hidden wisdom plain. 3 Why should I to fear give way When I see the evil day, When with wickedness my foes Shall surround me and oppose? 4 They that trust in treasured gold, Though they boast of wealth untold, None can bid his brother live, None to God a ransom give. 5 If from death one would be free And corruption never see, Costly is life's ransom price, Far beyond all sacrifice.

Dust to Dust, the Mortal Dies

Hymnal: PsH1934 #97 (1934) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Lyrics: 1 Dust to dust, the mortal dies, Both the foolish and the wise; None forever can remain, Each must leave his hoarded gain. Yet within their heart they say That their houses are for aye, That their dwelling places grand Shall for generations stand. 2 To their lands they give their name In the hope of lasting fame; But man's honor quickly flies, Like the lowly beast he dies. Though such folly mark their way, Men approve of what they say; Death their shepherd, they the sheep, He within his fold will keep. 3 O'er them soon shall rule the just, All their beauty turn to dust; God my waiting soul shall save, He will raise me from the grave. Let no fear disturb your peace Though one's house and wealth increase; Death shall end his fleeting day, He shall carry naught away. 4 Though in life he wealth attained, Though the praise of men he gained, He shall join those gone before, Where the light shall shine no more. Crowned with honor though he be, Highly gifted, strong and free, If he be not truly wise, Man is like the beast that dies.

The Mighty God, Jehovah, Speaks

Hymnal: PsH1934 #98 (1934) Lyrics: 1 The mighty God, Jehovah speaks And calls the earth from sea to sea; From beauteous Zion God shines forth, He comes and will not silent be; Devouring flame before Him goes, And dark the tempest round Him grows. 2 He calls aloud to heaven and earth That He may justly judge His own; My chosen saints together bring Who sacrifice to Me alone; The heavens His righteousness declare, For God Himself as Judge is there. 3 Hear, O my people, I will speak, Against thee I will testify; Give ear to Me, O Israel, For God, thy covenant God, am I; I do not spurn thy sacrifice, Thy offerings are before My eyes. 4 I will receive from out thy fold No offering for My holy shrine; The cattle on a thousand hills And all the forest beasts are Mine; Each mountain bird to Me is known, Whatever roams the field I own. 5 Behold, if I should hungry grow, I would not tell My need to thee, For all the world itself is Mine, And all its wealth belongs to Me; Why should I aught of thee receive, My thirst or hunger to relieve? 6 Bring thou to God the gift of thanks, And pay thy vows to God most High; Call ye upon My holy Name In days when sore distress is nigh; Deliverance I will send to thee, And praises thou shalt give to Me.

Thus Speaks the Lord to Wicked Men

Hymnal: PsH1934 #99 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Lyrics: 1 Thus speaks the Lord to wicked men: My statues why do ye declare? Why take My covenant in mouth, Since ye for wisdom do not care? For ye My holy words profane And cast them from you in disdain. 2 Ye have consented with the thief, Ye have partaken with the vile, Your mouths to evil words ye give, Your tongues proclaim deceit and guile, Ye glory in your brother's shame, Your mother's son do ye defame. 3 Thus have ye done; I silence kept, And this has been your secret thought, That I was wholly as yourselves, To take your evil deeds as nought; I will reprove you and array Your deeds before your eyes this day. 4 Consider this, who God forget, Lest I destroy with none to free; Who offers sacrifice of thanks, He glorifies and honors Me; To him who orders well his way Salvation free I will display.

Thou alone my Savior art, Teach Thy wisdom to my heart; Make me pure, Thy grace bestow, Wash me whiter than the snow. 4 Broken, humbled to the dust By Thy wrath and judgment just, Let my contrite heart rejoice And in gladness hear Thy voice; From my sins O hide Thy face, Blot them out in boundless grace.
