Remember, Lord, our mortal State
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P89g (1766) Topics: Fear in the Worship of God Lyrics: 1 Remember, Lord, our mortal State,
How frail our Life, how short the Date!
Where is the Man that draws his Breath
Safe from Disease, secure from Death?
2 Lord, while we see whole Nations die,
Our Flesh and Sense repine and cry,
"Must Death for ever rage and reign!
"Or hast thou made Mankind in vain?"
3 Where is thy Promise to the Just?
Are not thy Servants turn'd to Dust?
But Faith forbids these mournful Sighs,
And sees the sleeping Dust arise.
4 That glorious Hour, that dreadful Day,
Wipes the Reproach of Saints away,
And clears the Honour of thy Word:
Awake our Souls, and bless the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 89:47-52 Languages: English
Remember, Lord, our mortal State
Think, mighty GOD, on feeble Man
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P89h (1766) Topics: Fear in the Worship of God Lyrics: 1 Think, mighty GOD, on feeble Man;
How few his Hours! how short his Span!
Short from the Cradle to the Grave:
Who can secure his vital Breath
Against the bold Demands of Death,
With Skill to fly, or Pow'r to save?
2 Lord, shall it be for ever said,
"The Race of Man was only made
"For Sickness, Sorrow, and the Dust!"
Are not thy Servants, Day by Day,
Sent to their Graves, and turn'd to Clay?
Lord, where's thy Kindness to the Just?
3 Has thou not promis'd to thy Son
And all his Seed a heav'nly Crown?
But Flesh and Sense indulge Despair;
For ever blessed be the Lord,
That Faith can read his holy Word,
And find a Resurrection there.
4 For ever blessed be the Lord,
Who gives his Saints a long Reward
For all their Toil, Reproach and Pain;
Let all below, and all above,
Join to proclaim thy wond'rous Love,
And each repeat their loud Amen. Scripture: Psalm 89:47-52 Languages: English
Think, mighty GOD, on feeble Man

Great God, your love has called us here
Author: Brian Wren (b. 1936) Hymnal: Church Hymnary (4th ed.) #484 (2005) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Our Response to God in the worship of God's house Lyrics: 1 Great God, your love has called us here,
as we, by love, for love were made.
Your living likeness still we bear,
though marred, dishonoured, disobeyed.
We come, with all our heart and mind
your call to hear, your love to find.
2 We come with self-inflicted pains
of broken trust and chosen wrong,
half-free, half-bound by inner chains,
by social forces swept along,
by powers and systems close confined
yet seeking hope for humankind.
3 Great God, in Christ you call our name
and then receive us as your own,
not through some merit, right or claim,
but by your gracious love alone.
We strain to glimpse your mercy seat
and find you kneeling at our feet.
4 Then take the towel, and break the bread,
and humble us, and call us friends.
Suffer and serve till all are fed,
and show how grandly love intends
to work till all creation sings,
to fill all worlds, to crown all things.
5 Great God, in Christ you set us free
your life to live, your joy to share.
Give us your Spirit's liberty
to turn from guilt and dull despair
and offer all that faith can do
while love is making all things new. Scripture: 2 Corinthians 3:17 Languages: English Tune Title: MELITA

O Worship the King
Author: Robert Grant, 1779-1838 Hymnal: Revival Hymns and Choruses #1 (1970) Topics: Worship of God First Line: O worship the King, all glorious above Lyrics: 1 O worship the King, all glorious above;
And gratefully sing His pow'r and His love:
Our Shield and Defender, the Ancient of Days,
Pavilioned in splendor and girded with praise.
2 O tell of His might, O sing of His grace,
Whose robe is the light, whose canopy space;
His chariots of wrath the deep thunderclouds form;
And dark is His path on the wings of the storm.
3 Tju bountiful care what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air. it shines in the light;
it streams from the hills; it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.
4 Frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,
In Thee do we trust, nor find Thee to fail;
Thy mercies, how tender! how firm to the end!
Our Maker, Defender, Redeemer, and Friend. Languages: English Tune Title: LYONS
O Worship the King
