God's sovereignty and goodness; and Man's dominion over the creatures
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #15 (1790) Topics: Goodness of God; Goodness of God First Line: O Lord, our heavenly King Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our heavenly King,
Thy name is all divine;
Thy glories round the earth are spread,
And o'er the heavens they shine.
2 When to thy works on high
I raise my wondering eyes,
And see the moon, complete in light
Adorn the darksome skies:
3 When I survey the stars,
And all their shining forms,
LORD, what is man, that worthless thing,
A-kin to dust and worms?
4 LORD, what is worthless man,
That thou should'st love him so?
Next to thine angels is he plac'd,
And lord of all below:
5 Thine honours crown his head,
While beasts like slaves obey,
And birds that cut the air with wings,
And fish that cleave the sea.
6 How rich thy bounties are!
And wondrous are thy ways:
Of dust and worms thy power can frame
A monument of praise.
7 [From mouths of feeble babes
And sucklings, thou canst draw
Surprising honours to thy name!
And strike the world with awe.
8 O Lord, our heavenly King,
Thy name is all divine:
Thy glories round the earth are spread,
And o'er the heavens they shine.] Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #230 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Goodness of God Lyrics: 1 O praise the Lord, for He is good,
His mercies still endure;
Thus let His ransomed testify
From all their foes secure.
He has redeemed His captive saints
From adversaries' hands,
Has gathered them and brought them back
In peace from hostile lands.
2 They wandered in the wilderness,
By want and hunger pressed;
In trouble then they cried to God,
He saved their souls distressed.
He made the way before them plain,
Himself became their Guide;
He brought them to a city strong
Wherein they might abide.
3 O praise the Lord, ye sons of men,
For all His goodness shown;
O praise Him for the wondrous works
To you He has made known.
The longing soul that turns to Him
He fully satisfies;
He fills with good each hungering one
That for His mercy cries. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English Tune Title: GOSHEN

Psalm 103 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.224 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Goodness of God First Line: Bless, O my soul, the living God Lyrics:
Bless, O my soul, the living God,
Call home thy thoughts that rove abroad;
Let all the powers within me join
In work and worship so divine.
Bless, O my soul, the God of grace;
His favors claim thy highest praise:
Why should the wonders he hath wrought
Be lost in silence and forgot?
'Tis he, my soul, that sent his Son
To die for crimes which thou hast done;
He owns the ransom, and forgives
The hourly follies of our lives.
The vices of the mind he heals,
And cures the pains that nature feels
Redeems the soul from hell, and saves
Our wasting life from threat'ning graves.
Our youth decayed, his power repairs;
His mercy crowns our growing years;
He satisfies our mouth with good,
And fills our hopes with heav'nly food.
He sees th' oppressor and th' oppressed,
And often gives the suff'rers rest;
But will his justice more display
In the last great rewarding day.
[His power he showed by Moses' hands,
And gave to Isr'el his commands;
But sent his truth and mercy down
To all the nations by his Son.
Let the whole earth his power confess,
Let the whole earth adore his grace;
The Gentile with the Jew shall join
In work and worship so divine.]

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.226 (1806) Meter: 6.6.8.6 Topics: Goodness of God First Line: O bless the Lord, my soul! Lyrics:
O bless the Lord, my soul!
Let all within me join,
And aid my tongue to bless his name
Whose favors are divine.
O bless the Lord, my soul,
Nor let his mercies lie
Forgotten in unthankfulness,
And without praises die.
'Tis he forgives thy sins,
'Tis he relieves thy pain,
'Tis he that heals thy sicknesses
And makes thee young again.
He crowns thy life with love,
When ransomed from the grave;
He that redeemed my soul from hell
Hath sovereign power to save.
He fills the poor with good,
He gives the suff'rers rest;
The Lord hath judgments for the proud,
And justice for th' oppressed.
His wondrous works and ways
He made by Moses known
But sent the world his truth and grace
By his beloved Son.

Psalm 146
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.331 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8.8.8 Topics: Goodness of God First Line: I'll praise my Maker with my breath Lyrics:
I'll praise my Maker with my breath,
And when my voice is lost in death,
Praise shall employ my nobler powers
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last,
Or immortality endures.
Why should I make a man my trust?
Princes must die and turn to dust;
Vain is the help of flesh and blood:
Their breath departs, their pomp, and power,
And thoughts, all vanish in an hour,
Nor can they make their promise good.
Happy the man whose hopes rely
On Isr'el's God: he made the sky,
And earth, and seas, with all their train:
His truth for ever stands secure;
He saves th' oppressed, he feeds the poor,
And none shall find his promise vain.
The Lord hath eyes to give the blind;
The Lord supports the sinking mind;
He sends the lab'ring conscience peace;
He helps the stranger in distress,
The widow and the fatherless,
And grants the pris'ner sweet release.
He loves his saints, he knows them well,
But turns the wicked down to hell;
Thy God, O Zion! ever reigns:
Let every tongue, let every age,
In this exalted work engage;
Praise him in everlasting strains.
I'll praise him while he lends me breath;
And when my voice is lost in death,
Praise shall employ my nobler powers:
My days of praise shall ne'er be past,
While life, and thought, and being last,
Or immortality endures.

Psalm 146
Christ's condescension and glorification; or, God made man
Hymnal: Doctor Watts's imitation of the Psalms of David, to which is added a collection of hymns; the whole applied to the state of the Christian Church in general (3rd ed.) #16 (1786) Topics: Goodness of God; Goodness of God First Line: O Lord, our Lord, how wondrous great Lyrics: 1 O Lord, our Lord, how wondrous great
Is thine exalted name!
The glories of thy heavenly state
Let men and babes proclaim.
2 When I behold your works on high,
The moon that rules the night,
The shining stars that grace the sky,
Those moving worlds of light.
3 Lord, what is man, or all his race,
Who dwells so far below,
That thou should'st visit him with grace,
And love my nature so?
4 That thine eternal Son should bear
To take a mortal form,
Made lower than the angels are,
To save a dying worm?
[5 Yet while he liv'd on earth unknown,
And men would not adore,
Behold obedient nature own,
His Godhead and his power.
6 The waves lay spread beneath his feet;
And fish at his command,
Bring their large shoals to Peter's net,
Bring tribute to his hand.
7 These smaller glories of the Son,
Shone through the fleshy cloud;
Now we behold him on his throne,
And men confess him God.
8 Let him with majesty be crown'd,
Who bow'd his head to death;
And his eternal honours sound,
From all things that have breath.
9 Jesus, our Lord, how wondrous great
Is thine exalted name!
The glories of thy heavenly state
Let the whole earth proclaim. Scripture: Psalm 8 Languages: English
