God, in the high and holy place
Author: Montgomery Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #82 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Attributes of God Goodness; The Goodness of God Lyrics: 1 GOD, in the high and holy place,
Looks down upon the spheres;
Yet in his providence and grace
To every eye appears.
2 He bows the heavens! the mountains stand
A highway for our God:
He walks amid the desert land;
'Tis Eden where he trod.
3 In every stream his bounty flows,
Diffusing joy and wealth;
In every breeze his Spirit blows,
The breath of life and health.
4 His blessings fall in plenteous showers
Upon the lap of earth,
That teems with foliage, fruits, and flowers,
And rings with infant mirth.
5 If God hath made this world so fair,
Where sin and death abound,
How beautiful, beyond compare,
Will paradise be found! Scripture: Genesis 3:8
God, in the high and holy place
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.]

Psalm 103 Part 1
Called to Gather As God's People
Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism #6 (2018) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Goodness of God Lyrics: 1 Called to gather as God's people,
We assemble in this place
To unite our hearts and voices
In thanksgiving for God's grace:
For the birthing of creation,
For Christ's rising from death's hold,
For the coming of the Spirit,
Week by week claimed and retold.
2 Taught and formed by proclamation,
We await God's promised word:
Song and story, psalm and precept,
All the range of scripture heard.
By this ancient, living witness
We are summoned to confess
How we fall short, yet can trust that
God will hear, forgive, and bless.
3 Fed at Christ's abundant table,
We partake of holy food,
Wake the gifts of hope and mem'ry,
Taste and see that God is good.
So our mingled lives are taken,
Blessed and broken for Christ's sake,
Given out to feed and comfort
Bodies, minds, and hearts that ache.
4 Sent to share the Spirit's blessing,
We go forth renewed, restored,
Humbled by the task before us,
Strengthened by the Love outpoured.
Finding faith confirmed in action,
Led by hope through each new day,
We are called to be God's people,
Living what we sing and pray.

God's sovereignty and goodness; and Man's dominion over the creatures

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.

And fish at his command,
Bring their large shoals to Peter's net,
Bring tribute to his hand.

Shone through the fleshy cloud;

And men confess him God.

Who bow'd his head to death;
And his eternal honours sound,
From all things that have breath.
