To our Redeemer's glorious Name

Author: Anna Steele Appears in 359 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To our Redeemer's glorious name Awake the sacred song! O may His love, immortal flame! Tune ev'ry heart and tongue. 2 His love what mortal thought can reach! What mortal tongue display? Imagination's utmost stretch In wonder dies away. 3 He left His radiant throne on high, Left the bright realms of bliss, And came to earth to bleed and die! Was ever love like this? 4 Dear Lord, while we adoring pay Our humble thanks to Thee; May every heart with rapture say, "The Savior died for me!" 5 O may the sweet, the blissful theme Fill every heart and tongue, Till strangers love Thy charming Name, And join the sacred song!

How are Thy servants blest, O Lord!

Author: Joseph Addison Appears in 321 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How are Thy servants blest, O Lord! How sure is their defence! Eternal Wisdom is their guide, Their help Omnipotence, Their help Omnipotence. 2 Though by the dreadful tempest tossed High on the broken wave, They know Thou art not slow to hear, Nor impotent to save, Nor impotent to save. 3 The storm is laid, the winds retire, Obedient to Thy will; The sea, that roars at Thy command, At Thy command is still, At Thy command is still. 4 In midst of dangers, fears and death, Thy goodness I'll adore; And praise Thee for Thy mercies past, And humbly hope for more, And humbly hope for more. 5 My life, while Thou preserv'st my life, Thy sacrifice shall be; And oh, may death, when death shall come, Unite my soul to Thee! Unite my soul to Thee! Amen. Topics: Courage; Fear Dispelled; God Our Guide; Trust In God Used With Tune: SWANWICK

Nay, in your hearts is wickedness, And in you hands deceit. 2 The wicked, from their earliest days, in sin are gone astray, With froward heart, in foolish pride, From wisdom turned away. 3 The God of vengeance will destroy The wicked from His sight; The Lord will bring to nought their pow'r, And scatter all their might. 4 The good shall triumph and rejoice, And this shall be confessed; On earth the God of justice reigns, And righteousness is blessed.
