Children of a free-born race

Author: Anon. Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Children of a free-born race, Happy in your dwelling-place, As your blessings ye retrace, Think from whence they flow: Think of that Creative Hand, Author of the sea and land, By whose power the nations stand In their weal or woe. 2 Here are freedom, health, and peace; Here oppression's surges cease; Streams of knowledge here increase, Deepening far and wide: Science here her tribute pours, Industry collects her stores, Wealth flows in from foreign shores Like a swelling tide. 3 Here, religion undefiled, With an influence pure and mild, Reaches to the humblest child, E'en from door to door: Let us then our offerings bring, Thanks unto the heavenly King; From the heart his praises sing Now and evermore. Topics: The Christian Nation Patriotism; A Favored Land

Oh, what a mighty change Shall Jesus' suff'rers know

Author: C. Wesley Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 35 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Oh, what a mighty change Shall Jesus' suff'rers know, While o'er the happy plains they range, Incapable of woe! No ill-requited love Shall there our spirits wound: No base ingratitude above,-- No sin in heaven is found. 2 There all our griefs are spent: There all our sorrows end: We can not there the fall lament Of a departed friend; A brother dead to God, By sin, alas! undone: No father there, in passion loud, Cries, O my son! my son! 3 No slightest touch of pain, Nor sorrow's least alloy, Can violate our rest, or stain Our purity of joy: In that eternal day No clouds or tempests rise; There gushing tears are wiped away For ever from our eyes. Topics: Heaven; God shall Wipe away all Tears Scripture: 2 Samuel 14:14

Eternal God! almighty cause

Author: Browne Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 156 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Eternal God! almighty cause Of earth and seas, and worlds unknown! All things are subject to thy laws: All things depend on thee alone. 2 Thy glorious being singly stands, Of all within itself possessed; By none controlled in thy commands, And in thyself completely blessed. 3 To thee alone ourselves we owe; Let heaven and earth due homage pay; All other gods we disavow, Deny their claims, renounce their sway. 4 In thee, O Lord, our hope shall rest, Fountain of peace and joy and love! Thy favor only makes us blest; Without thee all would nothing prove. 5 Worship to thee alone belongs; Worship to thee alone we give; Thine be our hearts and thine our songs, And to thy glory let us live. 5 Spread thy great name through heathen lands; Their idol deities dethrone; Subdue the world to thy commands, And reign, as thou art, God alone. Topics: Attributes of God Unity; Reigning Alone Scripture: Daniel 4:35

God is our refuge and defense In trouble our unfailing aid

Author: Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 53 hymnals Lyrics: 1 GOD is our refuge and defense, In trouble our unfailing aid; Secure in his omnipotence, What does can make our souls afraid? 2 There is a river, pure and bright, Whose streams make glad the heavenly plains; There, in eternity of light, The city of our God remains. 3 Not on a seraph's wing of fire-- But on the mightier wings of prayer, We reach that home of pure desire, And feel his cloudless presence there. 4 But soon, how soon! our spirits droop, Unwont the air of heaven to breathe; Yet God, in very deed, will stoop, And dwell himself with men beneath. 5 Come to thy living temples, then; As in the ancient times appear; Let earth be Paradise again, And man, O God, thine image here! Topics: Attributes of God Preserver; The Lord of Hosts is with us Scripture: Psalm 27

Lord, teach us how to pray aright

Author: Montgomery Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 225 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Lord, teach us how to pray aright, With reverence and with fear; Though dust and ashes in thy sight, We may, we must draw near. 2 God of all grace, we come to thee With broken, contrite hearts; Give what thine eye delights to see,-- Truth in the inward parts. 3 Patience to watch, and wait, and weep, Though mercy long delay; Courage our fainting souls to keep, And trust thee, though thou slay. 4 Give these, and then thy will be done; Thus strengthened with all might, We, by thy Spirit and thy Son, Shall pray, and pray aright. Topics: Prayer; True Devotion

Some seraph, lend your heavenly tongue

Author: Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 18 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Some seraph, lend your heavenly tongue, Or harp of golden string, That I may raise a lofty song To our eternal King. 2 Thy names, how infinite they be! Great, Everlasting One! Boundless thy might and majesty, And unconfined thy throne. 3 Thy glory shines immensely bright; Exhaustless is thy grace; Immortal day breaks from thine eyes, And Gabriel veils his face. 4 Thine essence is a vast abyss, Which angels can not sound; An ocean of infinities, Where all our thoughts are drowned.

From world to world the joy shall ring: The Lord omnipotent is King! 2 The Lord is King! child of the dust, The Judge of all the world is just: Holy and true are all his ways; Let every creature speak his praise. 3 Come, make your wants, your burdens known; The contrite soul he'll ne'er disown, And angel bands are waiting there, His messages of love to bear. 4 Oh, when his wisdom can mistake, His might decay, his love forsake-- Then may his children cease to sing, The Lord omnipotent is King!
