O Worship the King

Author: Sir Robert H. Grant Hymnal: NCH1976 #1 (1976) First Line: O worship the King, all glorious above Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all glorious above,O gratefully sing His pow'r and His love;Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.2 O tell of His might, O sing of his grace,Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space.His chariots of wrath the deep thunder clouds form,And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.3 Thy bountiful care what tongue can recite?It breathes in the air, it shines in the light;It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,And sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail;Thy mercies how tender! How firm to the end!Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer and Friend.Amen. Topics: God The Father; Worship Hymns Languages: English Tune Title: LYONS

Author: Maltbie D. Babcock Hymnal: NCH1976 #2 (1976) Lyrics: 1 This is my Father's world,And to my list'ning ears,All nature sings, and round me ringsThe music of the spheres.This is my Father's world,I rest me in the thoughtOf rocks and trees, of skies and seasHis hand the wonders wrought.2 This is my Father's world,The birds their carols raise,The morning light, the lily white,Declare their Maker's praise.This is my Father's world,He shines in all that's fair;In the rustling grass I hear Him pass,He speaks to me ev'rywhere.3 This is my Father's world,O let me ne'er forgetThat though the wrong seems oft so strong,God is the Ruler yet.This is my Father's world,The battle is not done,Jesus who died shall be satisfied,And earth and heav'n be one.Amen.

A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

Author: Martin Luther; Frederick H. Hedge Hymnal: NCH1976 #5 (1976) Lyrics: 1 A mighty Fortress is our God,A Bulwark never failing;Our Helper He, amid the floodOf mortal ills prevailing:For still our ancient foeDoth seek to work us woe;His craft and power are great,And armed with cruel hate,On earth is not His equal.2 Did we in our own strength confide,Our striving would be losing,Were not the right Man on our side,The Man of God's own choosing:Dost ask who that may be?Christ Jesus, it is He;Lord Sabaoth His name,From age to age the same,And He must win the battle.3 And tho this world, with devils filled,Should threaten to undo us,We will not fear, for God has willedHis truth to triumph through us:The Prince of Darkness grim,We tremble not for him;His rage we can endure,For lo, his doom is sure;One little word shall fell him.4 That word above all earthly powers,No thanks to them, abideth;The Spirit and the gifts are oursThro him who with us sideth;Let goods and kindred go,This mortal life also;The body they may kill:God's truth abideth still;His Kingdom is forever.Amen.
