i Joy to the earth! the Saviour reigns! While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains, He rules the world with truth and grace, And makes the nations prove The glories of his righteousness, And wonders of his love. THE BIBLE. Father of mercies! in thy word Here may the wretched sons of want Here the Redeemer's welcome voice And life and everlasting joys Attend the blissful sound. O may these heavenly pages be And still new beauties may we see, EASTER. Again the Lord of life and light O what a night was that which wrapt This day be grateful homage paid, Let gladness dwell in every heart, 106 I sing the mighty Power of God. C. M. Music from Musical Class Book-by permission. I sing the mighty power of God, That bade the mountains rise ; That spread the flow - ing I sing the wisdom that ordained The moon shines full at his command, I sing the goodness of the Lord, There's not a plant or flower below, THE TRIUMPH OF LOVE. I sing the wondrous power of love, And bids through realms of life above I sing the triumph of that grace I sing the glory of that truth O may my soul begin this hour A holier life to live! Then shall I know the wondrous power The love of God can give. PROTECTION AND SAFETY. Unshaken as the sacred hill, And firm as mountains be, Firm as a rock, the soul shall rest, That leans, O Lord, on thee. Not walls nor hills could guard so well As those eternal arms of love The Lord is safety and defence, And they who trust his holy word Deal gently, Lord, with souls sincere, Within the gates of paradise, Where Christ, their Lord, is gone. |
