Now with Joyful Exultation

Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #95D (2012) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Idols and Idolatry Lyrics: 1 Now with joyful exultation let us sing to God our praise; to the Rock of our salvation loud hosannas let us raise. Thankful tribute gladly bringing, let us come before him now, and, with psalms his praises singing, joyful in his presence bow. 2 For how great a God, and glorious, is the LORD of whom we sing; over idol gods victorious, great is he, our God and King. In his hand are earth's deep places, also his are all the hills; his the sea whose bounds he traces, his the land his bounty fills. 3 To the LORD, such might revealing, let us come with reverence meet, and, before our Maker kneeling, let us worship at his feet. He is our own God who leads us, we the people of his care; with a shepherd's hand he feeds us as his flock in pastures fair. 4 While he offers peace and pardon let us hear his voice today, lest, if we our hearts should harden, we should perish in the way-- lest to us, so unbelieving, he in judgment should declare: "You, so long my Spirit grieving, never in my rest will share." Scripture: Psalm 95 Tune Title: BEECHER

In love and truth you do fulfill the counsels of your sovereign will; though nations fail your power to own, yet you still reign, and you alone. 2 The idol gods of heathen lands are but the work of human hands; they cannot see, they cannot speak, their ears are deaf, their hands are weak; like them shall be all those who hold to gods of silver and of gold. 3 So let us trust in God alone, the Lord, whose grace and power are known; and our complete allegiance yield to God who is our help and shield. Join, heaven and earth, in sweet accord; sing "Hallelujah, praise the Lord!" Scripture: Psalm 115 Tune Title: VATER UNSER
