Our Banner Is The Eternal God

Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8773 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Our banner is th’ eternal God Lyrics: 1 Our banner is th’eternal God, Nor will we yield to fear; Amidst ten thousand fierce assaults, His mighty aid is near. 2 To Him the hands of faith we stretch, And plead experienced grace; To Him the voice of prayer we raise, Nor will He hide His face. 3 No more, proud Amalek, thy boast, God’s arm is feeble grown; His sword shall lop off every hand That dares insult His throne. 4 Awake, tremendous Judge, awake, Our nation’s cause to plead; Nor let Thine Israel’s foes, and Thine, By wickedness succeed. 5 Our fainting hands, how soon they droop! But Thou the weak canst raise; And in the mount of prayer canst leave An altar to Thy praise. Languages: English Tune Title: OLNEY

To Thee This Temple We Devote

Author: Jacob R. Scott Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8792 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 To Thee this temple we devote, Our Father and our God; Accept it Thine, and seal it now Thy Spirit’s blest abode. 2 Here may the prayer of faith ascend, The voice of praise arise; O, may each lowly service prove Accepted sacrifice. 3 Here may the sinner learn his guilt, And weep before his Lord; Here, pardoned, sing a Savior’s love, And here his vows record. 4 Here may affliction dry the tear, And learn to trust in God, Convinced it is a Father smites, And love that guides the rod. 5 Peace be within these sacred walls; Prosperity be here; Long smile upon Thy people, Lord, And evermore be near.

Why, Why Repine?

Author: Walter S. Landor, 1775-1864 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8806 Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Why, why repine, my pensive friend Lyrics: 1 Why, why repine, my pensive friend, At pleasures slipped away? Some will the stern fates never lend, And all refuse to stay. 2 I see the rainbow in the sky, The dew upon the grass, I see them, and I ask not why They glimmer or they pass. 3 With folded arms I linger not To call them back; ’twere vain; In this, or in some other spot, I know they’ll shine again.

Prayer Is The Breath Of God In Man

Author: Benjamin Beddome, 1717-1795 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8840 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the breath of God in man, Returning whence it came; Love is the sacred fire within, And prayer the rising flame. 2 It gives the burdened spirit ease, And soothes the troubled breast; Yields comfort to the mourners here, And to the weary rest. 3 When God inclines the heart to pray He hath an ear to hear; To Him there’s music in a groan, And beauty in a tear. 4 The humble suppliant cannot fail To have his wants supplied; Since He for sinners intercedes, Who once for sinners died.

But heavy bars confine their power And malice to the deep. 3 Hosanna to our conquering King! All hail, incarnate Love! Ten thousand songs and glories wait To crown Thy head above. 4 Thy victories and deathless fame Throughout the world shall run, And everlasting ages sing The triumphs Thou hast won.

Rejoice, Believer, In The Lord

Author: John Newton Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8868 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Rejoice, believer, in the Lord Who makes your cause His own; The hope that’s built upon His Word, Can ne’er be overthrown. 2 Though many foes beset your road, And feeble is your arm; Your life is hid with Christ in God Beyond the reach of harm. 3 Weak as you are, you shall not faint, Or fainting shall not die; Jesus, the strength of every saint, Will aid you from on high. 4 Though sometimes unperceived by sense, Faith sees Him always near; A guide, a glory, a defense, Then what have you to fear? 5 As surely as He overcame, And triumphed once for you; So surely you, that love His name, Shall triumph in Him too.

How Hast Thou, Lord, From Year To Year

Author: Thomas Gibbons, 1720-1785 Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8873 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 How hast Thou, Lord, from year to year, Our land with plenty crowned! And generous fruit and golden grain Have spread their riches round. 2 But we Thy mercies have abused To more abounding crimes; What heights, what daring heights in sin Disgrace and mark our times! 3 Equal, though awful, is the doom, That fierce descending rain Should into inundations swell, And crush the rising grain! 4 How just, that in the autumn’s reign, When we had hoped to reap, Our fields of sorrow and despair Should lie a hideous heap! 5 But Lord, have mercy on our land, Those floods of vengeance stay: Dispel these glooms, and let the sun Shine in unclouded day! 6 To Thee alone we look for help; None else of dew or rain Can give the world the smallest drop Or smallest drop restrain.

The Spring, Great God, At Thy Command

Author: Thomas Gibbons Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8876 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 The spring, great God, at Thy command, Leads forth the smiling year; Gay verdure, foliage, blooms and flowers, T’adorn her reign, appear. 2 But soon canst Thou in righteous wrath Blast all the promised joy, The elements await Thy nod To bless, or to destroy. 3 The sun, Thy minister of love, That from the naked ground Calls forth the hidden seeds to birth, And spreads their beauties round; 4 But now, at God’s dread order sends Destructive darts and fires; Hills, plains, and vales are parched with drought, And blooming life expires. 5 Like burnished brass, the heav’n around In angry terror burns; Our earth becomes a joyless waste, And into iron turns. 6 O pity, Lord, in our distress, Nor with our land contend; Bid the avenging skies relent, And showers of mercy send.

Should We Not Thank And Praise Our God?

Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #8878 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Should we not thank and praise our God? Who heard our humble cry, Who has withdrawn His chastening rod, And laid His threat’nings by. 2 The blessèd rain the Lord hath sent, Revived our scorching earth, And put an end to our complaint, And fears of fatal dearth. 3 Due praise to God let us return, For the refreshing rain, We who like as our earth did mourn, Are now revived again. 4 Eternal praise to God we give, In whose blest hands we are; Who still provides for us to live, Unworthy as we are. 5 Had Heav’n the rain from us withheld, What would our case have been? A curse had rested on our fields: Our just reward for sin. 6 Thanks be to God, it was His will In mercy us to spare, And we enjoy His blessing still, Unworthy as we are.
