The Hosanna of the Children; or, Infants praising GOD

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #15 (1740) Topics: Adam the first and second their Dominion First Line: Almighty Ruler of the Skies Lyrics: 1 Almighty Ruler of the Skies, Thro' the wide Earth thy Name is spread; And thine eternal Glories rise O'er all the Heav'ns thy Hands have made. 2 To Thee the Voices of the Young A Monument of Honour raise; And Babes with uninstructed Tongue Declare the Wonders of thy Praise. 3 Thy Power assists their tender Age To bring proud Rebels to the Ground, To still the bold Blasphemer's Rage, And all their Policies confound. 3 Children amidst thy Temple throng To see their great Redeemer's Face; The Son of David, is their Song, And young Hosannas fill the Place. 4 The frowning Scribes and angry Priests In vain their impious Cavils bring; Revenge sits silent in their Breasts, While Jewish Babes proclaim their King.

Adam and Christ, Lords of the Old and New Creation

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #16a (1740) Topics: Adam the first and second their Dominion First Line: Lord, what was Man, when made at first Lyrics: Second Part: 1 Lord, what was Man, when made at first, Adam the Offspring of the dust, That thou shouldst set him and his Race But just below an Angel's Place? 2 That thou shouldst raise his Nature so, And make him lord of all below, Make every beast and Bird submit, And lay the Fishes at his feet? 3 But, O! what brighter Glories wait To crown the Second Adam's State! What Honours shall thy Son adorn, Who condescended to be born! 4 See him below his Angels made; See him in Dust amongst the Dead, To save a ruin'd World from Sin; But he shall reign with Pow'r divine. 5 The World to come, redeem'd from all The Mis'ries that attend the fall, New made, and glorious, shall submit At our exalted Saviour's Feet.

Let me but hear my Saviour say

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #201 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Adam the first and second, their dominion Lyrics: Let me but hear my Savior say, "Strength shall be equal to thy day," Then I rejoice in deep distress, Leaning on all-sufficient grace. I glory in infirmity, That Christ's own power may rest on me: When I am weak, then am I strong, Grace is my shield, and Christ my song. I can do all things, or can bear All suff'rings, if my Lord be there; Sweet pleasures mingle with the pains, While his left hand my head sustains. But if the Lord be once withdrawn, And we attempt the work alone, When new temptations spring and rise, We find how great our weakness is. [So Samson, when his hair was lost, Met the Philistines to his cost; Shook his vain limbs with sad surprise, Made feeble fight, and lost his eyes.] Scripture: 2 Corinthians 12:10 Languages: English
