Why did the Jews proclaim their Rage?

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P2c (1766) Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the Kingdom Lyrics: 1 Why did the Jews proclaim their Rage? The Romans why their Swords employ; Against the Lord their Powers engage His dear Anointed to destroy? 2 'Come, let us break his Bands, they say, 'This Man shall never give us Laws; And thus they cast his Yoke away, And nail'd the Monarch to the Cross. 3 But GOD, who high in Glory reigns, Laughs at their Pride, their Rage controuls? He'll vex their Hearts with inward Pains, And speak in Thunder to their Souls. 4 "I will maintain the King I made "On Zion's everlasting Hill, "My Hand shall bring him from the Dead, "And he shall stand your Sovereign still." 5 [His wond'rous Rising from the Earth Makes his eternal Godhead known; The Lord declares his heavenly Birth: "This day have I begot my Son. 6 "Ascend, my Son, to my Right-hand, "There thou shalt ask, and I bestow "The utmost Bounds of Heathen Lands; "To thee the Northern Isles shall bow." 7 But Nations that resist his Grace Shall fall beneath his Iron Stroke; His Rod shall crush his Foes with Ease, As Potters Earthen Work is broke. Pause. 8 Now ye that sit on earthly Thrones, Be wise, and serve the Lord, the Lamb: Now at his Feet submit your Crowns, Rejoice and tremble at his Name. 9 With humble Love address the Son, Lest he grow angry, and ye die; His Wrath will burn to Worlds unknown, If ye provoke his Jealousy. 10 His Storms shall drive you quick to Hell, He is a GOD, and ye but Dust; Happy the Souls that know him well, And make his Grace their only Trust.

Lord, in the Morning thou shalt hear

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P5 (1766) Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the Kingdom Lyrics: 1 Lord in the Morning thou shalt hear My Voice ascending high; To thee will I direct my Pray'r, To thee lift up mine Eye. 2 Up to the Hills where Christ is gone To plead for all his Saints, Presenting at his Father's Throne Our Songs and our Complaints. 3 Thou art a GOD, before whose Sight The Wicked shall not stand, Sinners shall ne'er be thy Delight, Nor dwell at thy Right Hand. 4 But to thy House will I resort, To taste thy Mercies there; I will frequent thine holy Court, And worship in thy Fear. 5 O may thy Spirit guide my Feet In Ways of Righteousness! Make every Path of Duty strait, And plain before my Face. Pause. 6 My watchful Enemies combine To tempt my Feet astray; They flatter with a base Design, To make my Soul their Prey. 7 Lord crush the Serpent in the Dust, And all his Plots destroy; While those that in thy Mercy trust, For ever shout for Joy. 8 The Men that love and fear thy Name Shall see their Hopes fulfill'd; The mighty GOD will compass them With Favour as a Shield. Scripture: Psalm 5 Languages: English

With cheerful voice I sing

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #268 (1835) Meter: 6.6.6.6.8.8 Topics: Exaltation of Christ to the kingdom Lyrics: With cheerful voice I sing The titles of my Lord, And borrow all the names Of honor from his word: Nature and art can ne'er supply Sufficient forms of majesty. In Jesus we behold His Father's glorious face, Shining for ever bright, With mild and lovely rays Th' eternal God's eternal Son Inherits and partakes the throne.] The sovereign King of kings, The Lord of lords most high, Writes his own name upon His garment and his thigh: His name is called The Word of God; He rules the earth with iron rod. Where promises and grace Can neither melt nor move, The angry Lamb resents The injuries of his love; Awakes his wrath without delay, As lions roar, and tear the prey. But when for works of peace The great Redeemer comes, What gentle characters, What titles he assumes! Light of the world, and Life of men; Nor will he bear those names in vain. Immense compassion reigns In our Immanuel's heart, When he descends to act A Mediator's part: He is a Friend and Brother too; Divinely kind, divinely true. At length the Lord the Judge His awful throne ascends, And drives the rebels far From favorites and friends: Then shall the saints completely prove The heights and depths of all his love.
