O GOD, who hast our Troops disperst

Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O GOD, who hast our Troops disperst, Forsaking those who'd left thee first; As we thy just Displeasure mourn, To us in Mercy, LORD, return. 2 Our Strength, that firm as Earth did stand, Is rent by thy avenging Hand; O heal the Breaches thou hast made; We shake, we fall, without thy Aid. 3 Our Folly's sad Effects we feel, For drunk, with Discord's Cup, we reel; But now for them who thee rever'd, Thou hast thy Truth's bright Banner rear'd. 4 Let thy right Hand thy Saints protect, LORD, hear the Pray'rs that we direct. The holy GOD has spoke, and I O'erjoy'd on his firm Word rely. 5 "To thee in Portions I'll divide, "Fair Sichem's Soil, Samaria's Pride, "To Sichem, Succoth next I'll join, "And measure out her Vale by Line. 6 "Manasseh, Gilead, both subscribe, "To my Commands, with Ephraim's Tribe: "Ephraim by Arms supports my Cause, "And Judah by religious Laws. 7 "Moab my Slave and Drudge shall be, "Nor Edom from my Yoke get free; "Proud Palestine's imperious State, "Shall humbly on our Triumph wait." 8 But who shall quell these mighty Pow'rs, And clear my Way to Edom's Tow'rs? Or thro' her guarded Frontiers tread, The Path that doth to Conquest lead? 9 Ev'n thou, O GOD, who hast dispers'd Our Troops, for we forsook thee first; Those, whom thou didst om Wrath forsake, Appear'd, thou wilt victorious make. 10 Do thou our fainting Cause sustain, For human Succorus are but vain. Fresh Strength and Courage GOD bestows; 'Tis he treads down our proudest Foes.

Creator of the starry height

Author: Anon. Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 93 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Creator of the starry height, Thy people's everlasting light, Jesus, Redeemer of us all, Hear Thou Thy servants when they call. 2 Thou, sorrowing at the helpless cry Of all creation doomed to die, didst save our lost and guilty race, By healing gifts of heavenly grace. 3 Love drew Thee down, the world to win From common stain of common sin; Proceeding from a virgin shrine The spotless victim all divine. 4 At Thy great name, exalted now, All knees in lowly homage bow; All things in heaven and earth adore, And own thee King for evermore. 5 To Thee, O holy One, we pray, Our Judge in that tremendous day, Ward off, while yet we dwell below, The weapons of our crafty foe. 6 To God the Father, God the Son And God the Spirit, Three in One, Praise, honor, might, and glory be From age to age eternally.
