The heavens declare Thy glory, Lord
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #52 (1917) Lyrics: 1 The heavens declare Thy glory, Lord,
In every star Thy wisdom shines;
But, when our eyes behold Thy word,
We read Thy name in fairer lines.
2 The rolling sun, the changing light,
And night and day Thy power confess;
But the blest volume Thou hast writ
Reveals Thy justice and Thy grace.
3 Sun, moon, and stars convey Thy praise
Round the whole earth, and never stand;
So when Thy truth began its race,
It touched and glanced on every land.
4 Nor shall Thy spreading gospel rest
Till through the world Thy truth has run;
Till Christ has all the nations blest,
That see the light or feel the sun.
5 Great Sun of Righteousness, arise,
Bless the dark world with heavenly light;
Thy gospel makes the simple wise;
Thy laws are pure, Thy judgments right.

The heavens declare Thy glory, Lord
O God, the Rock of ages
Author: Bp. E. H. Bickersteth, 1825-1906 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #53 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O God, the Rock of ages,
Who evermore hast been,
What time the tempest rages,
Our dwelling-place serene:
Before Thy first creations,
O Lord, the same as now,
To endless generations
The Everlasting Thou!
2 Our years are like the shadows
On sunny hills that lie,
Or grasses in the meadows
That blossom but to die:
A sleep, a dream, a story
By strangers quickly told,
An unremaining glory
Of things that soon are old.
3 O Thou, who canst not slumber,
Whose light grows never pale,
Teach us aright to number
Our years before they fail.
On us Thy mercy lighten,
On us Thy goodness rest,
And let Thy Spirit brighten
The hearts Thyself hast blest.
4 Lord, crown our faith's endeavour
With beauty and with grace,
Till, clothed in light for ever,
We see Thee face to face:
A joy no language measures;
A fountain brimming o'er;
An endless flow of pleasures;
An ocean without shore. Topics: Rock God our; Rock God our; The Godhead The Father; Christ Rock of Ages; Rock Of Ages; Life Brevity of Languages: English Tune Title: AURELIA
O God, the Rock of ages
The Lord Jehovah reigns
Author: Dr. Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #54 (1917) Lyrics: 1 The Lord Jehovah reigns,
His throne is built on high;
The garments He assumes
Are light and majesty:
His glories shine with beams so bright,
No mortal eye can bear the sight.
2 The thunders of His hand
Keep the wide world in awe;
His wrath and justice stand
To guard His holy law;
And where His love resolves to bless,
His truth confirms and seals the grace.
3 Through all His mighty works
Amazing wisdom shines;
Confounds the powers of hell,
And breaks their dark designs;
Strong is His arm and shall fulfil
His great decrees and sovereign will.
4 And will this sovereign King
Of glory condescend?
And will He write His name,
My Father and my Friend?
I love His name, I love His word:
Join all my powers to praise the Lord!

Lord God, by whom all change is wrought

And still from strength to strength we go,

New light, new glory still we find,
New realms divine possess;

The head that once was crowned with thorns
Author: Thomas Kelly, 1769-1854 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #57 (1917) Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns
Is crowned with glory now;
A royal diadem adorns
The mighty Victor's brow.
2 The highest place that heaven affords
Is His, is His by right,
The King of kings and Lord of lords,
And heaven's eternal light,
3 The joy of all who dwell above,
The joy of all below
To whom He manifests His love,
And grants His name to know.
4 To them the cross, with all its shame,
With all its grace; is given,
Their name an everlasting name,
Their joy the joy of heaven.
5 They suffer with their Lord below,
They reign with Him above,
Their profit and their joy to know
The mystery of His love.
6 The cross to them is life and health,
Though shame and death to Him;
His people's hope, His people's wealth,
Their everlasting theme.

The head that once was crowned with thorns
O Lord and Master of us all!
Author: J. G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #58 (1917) Lyrics: 1 O Lord and Master of us all!
Whate'er our name or sign,
We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call,
We test our lives by Thine.
2 Thou judgest us: Thy purity
Doth all our lusts condemn;
The love that draws us nearer Thee
Is hot with wrath to them.
3 Our thoughts lie open to Thy sight;
And, naked to Thy glance,
Our secret sins are in the light
Of Thy pure countenance.
4 Yet, weak and blinded though we be,
Thou dost our service own;
We bring our varying gifts to Thee,
And Thou rejectest none.
5 O Lord and Master of us all!
Whate'er our name or sign,
We own Thy sway, we hear Thy call,
We test our lives by Thine. Topics: The Godhead The Son; Christ Judge; Following Christ; Judge, Christ our ; Jesus (See also Christ) Judge; Jesus (See also Christ) Master; Master, Christ our Languages: English
O Lord and Master of us all!
Immortal Love, for ever full
Author: J. G. Whittier, 1807-1892 Hymnal: MHTB1917 #59 (1917) Lyrics: 1 Immortal Love, for ever full,
For ever flowing free,
For ever shared, for ever whole,
A never-ebbing sea!
2 Our outward lips confess the name
All other names above;
Love only knoweth whence it came,
And comprehendeth love.
3 Blow, winds of God, awake and blow
The mists of earth away!
Shine out, O Light Divine, and show
How wide and far we stray!
4 We may not climb the heavenly steeps
To bring the Lord Christ down;
In vain we search the lowest deeps
For Him no depths can drown.
5 And warm, sweet, tender, even yet
A present help is He;
And faith has still its Olivet,
And love its Galilee.
6 The healing of His seamless dress
Is by our beds of pain;
We touch Him in life's throng and press,
And we are whole again.
7 The letter fails, the systems fall,
And every symbol wanes;
The Spirit over-brooding all
Eternal Love remains.
