Tune: Abide With Me
“Eventide” by William H. Monk, 1861
[Key: B]

Verse 1
Your hands created
And established me.
Give understanding;
Your commands I’ll learn.
May those who fear You
See me and be glad;
When they have seen
How to Your Word I turn.

O Lord, I know how right
Your judgments are;
In faithfulness
You have afflicted me.
As to Your servant,
You once gave Your Word.
May Your unfailing love
My comfort be.

Verse 3
Let Your compassion
Come to give me life.
For in Your law
My joy is very great.
Shamed be the proud who
Wrong me with their lies.
But on your precepts
I will meditate.

Verse 4
May all of those
Who fear You turn to me,
Those who Your testimonies
Know and claim.
May my heart keep Your
Statutes blamelessly;
So that I never may
Be put to shame.

And shield you from the sun, and moon by night.

His promise keeps your soul, and will restore.
He guards your steps, your going out and in,
From now unto the end, forevermore.

“Hyfrydol” by R.H. Prichard

Verse 1
Tell His praise in song and story,
Bless the Lord with heart and voice;
In my God is all my glory,
Come before Him and rejoice.
Join to praise His Name together,
He who hears His people’s cry;
Tell His praise, come wind or weather,
Shining faces lifted high.

To the Lord whose love has found them
Cry the poor in their distress;
Swift His angels camped around them
Prove Him sure to save and bless.
God it is who hears our crying
Though the spark of faith be dim;
Taste and see! Beyond denying
Bless’d are those who trust in Him.

Verse 3
Taste and see! In faith draw near Him,
Trust the Lord with all your powers;
Seek and serve Him, love and fear Him,
Life and all its joys are ours:
True delight in holy living,
Peace and plenty, length of days;
Come, my children, with thanksgiving
Bless the Lord in songs of praise!

Verse 4
In our need He walks beside us,
Ears alert to every cry;
Watchful eyes to guard and guide us,
Love that whispers `It is I.’
Good shall triumph, wrong be righted,
God has pledged His promised word;
So with ransomed saints united
Join to praise our living Lord!

497

Words: Peter Ninnis
Tune: This is My Father’s World
“Terra Beata” by Franklin L. Sheppard, 1915
[Key: Bb]

Verse 1
I’ll praise the Lord, my rock
Who trains my hands for war;
Who is my loving God and shield,
And my deliverer.
Yet we are weak, and fail,
No stronger than a breath;
Lord, what is man, so small, so frail,
And shadowed deep by death?

Verse 2
Now part Your heav’ns, Lord,
Come down and show Your might;
Unveil the latent pow’r of God
In nature’s storm and light.
Descend in this dark hour
To scatter all deceit.
Revive Your work! Reveal Your pow’r,
And lying schemes defeat.

Verse 3
And, while we wait on God
For His restoring grace,
The new song planted in our soul
Awakes to His glad praise.
You are the King of Kings,
Our strong security;
Deliver us from those who lie,
And set Your servant free!

Verse 4
Then mercy great shall flow,
Our children’s faith increase;
Our sheep and cattle multiply,
Our harvests grow in peace.
No cries shall haunt our streets,
No threats of fire or sword—
How bless’d the land that knows such rest,
Whose people know the Lord!

For the wonders He has done;

Have for Him the vict’ry won.
And the Lord revealed His rescue,
His salvation He made known;
In the sight of ev’ry nation He
His righteousness has shown.

With the harp your voices raise.

With the blast of horn and trumpet,
Shout before the Lord, the King.
Let the sea resound with praises,

Clap their hands with one accord;
Let the mountains sing together
And rejoice before the Lord.

For most surely He is coming,
Judge of all the earth to be.
Justly He will judge the peoples,
And the world with equity.

Have for Him the vict’ry won!

Tune: Praise to The Lord
“Lobe Den Herren”
[Key: D]

Verse 1
Our thanks we offer, O God
For Your name is upon us.
Telling Your wonderful works
How Your mercies dwell on us.
“At My set time,
I in My nature sublime,
Judge all the earth by My promise.”

Verse 2
“Earth and all those
Who dwell in it shall shake now before Me
I Have established its pillars
And steady its mooring.
Who then shall boast
Against the heavenly hosts?
Quiet your pride now before Me!”

Verse 3
Unto the ends of the earth,
Man has sought acclamation,
God is the Judge who must humble
Or bring exaltation.
Yahweh the Lord,
Onto the wicked has poured
His cup of wrath as libation.

Verse 4
But as for me, I will
Tell of His wonders forever,
Praising the Lord God
With singing shall be my endeavor.
He shall cast down
From ev’ry rival his crown,
And raise the righteous forever.
