Let children hear the mighty deeds
Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 180 hymnals Topics: The Catechism Catechetical Instruction Lyrics: 1 Let children hear the mighty deeds
Which God performed of old,
Which in our younger years we saw,
And which our fathers told.
2 He bids us make His glories known,
His works of power and grace;
And will convey His wonders down,
Through every rising race.
3 Our lips shall tell them to our sons,
And they again to theirs
That generations yet unborn
May teach them to their heirs.
4 Thus learn that in our God alone
Their hope securely stands!
That they may ne'er forget His works,
But practice His commands. Used With Tune: LEA

Instruction from Scripture
Appears in 474 hymnals Topics: Instruction from Scripture; Scripture instruction from it First Line: How shall the Young secure their Hearts Lyrics: 1 How shall the Young secure their Hearts,
And guard their Lives from Sin?
Thy Word the choicest Rules imparts
To keep the Conscience clean.
2 When once it enters to the Mind,
It spreads such Light abroad,
The meanest Souls Instruction find,
And raise their Thoughts to GOD.
3 'Tis like the Sun, a heav'nly Light,
That guides us all the Day;
And through the Dangers of the Night,
A Lamp to lead our Way.
4 The Men that keep thy Law with Care,
And meditate thy Word,
Grow wiser than their Teachers are,
And better know the Lord.
5 Thy Precepts make me truly wise;
I hate the Sinner's Road;
I hate my own vain Thoughts that rise,
But love thy Law, my GOD.
6 [The starry Heav'ns thy Rule obey,
The Earth maintains her Place;
And these thy Servants Night and Day
Thy Skill and Pow'r express.
7 But still thy Law and Gospel, Lord,
Have Lessons more divine;
Not Earth stands firmer than thy Word,
Nor Stars so nobly shine.]
8 Thy Word is everlasting Truth;
How pure is ev'ry Page!
That holy Book shall guide our Youth,
And well support our Age. Scripture: Psalm 119:9

Children in Years and Knowledge young
Appears in 67 hymnals Topics: Children instructed; Instruction in piety Lyrics: 1 Children in Years and Knowledge young,
Your Parents Hope, your Parents Joy,
Attend the Counsels of my Tongue,
Let pious Thoughts your Minds employ.

And Peace to crown your mortal State,
Restrain your Feet from impious Ways,
Your Lips from Slander and Deceit.

His Ears are open to their Cries;
He sets his frowning Face against
The Sons of Violence and Lies.

GOD with his Grace is ever nigh;
Pardon and Hope his Love imparts,
When Men in deep Contrition lie.
5 He tells their Tears, he counts their Groans,
His Son redeems their Souls from Death;
His Spirit heals their broken Bones,
They in his Praise employ their Breath. Scripture: Psalm 34:11-22

And they that hate the just;
But all His servants God redeems,
And safe in Him they trust. Scripture: Psalm 34 Used With Tune: ALEXANDRIA
