O Worship the King
Author: Sir Robert Grant Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #2 (1985) Meter: 5.5.5.5.6.5.6.5 Topics: Hymns with Descants Lyrics: 1 O worship the King,
all-glorious above,
O gratefully sing
his power and his love;
our shield and defender,
the Ancient of Days,
pavilioned in splendor,
and girded with praise.
2 O tell of his might,
O sing of his grace,
whose robe is the light,
whose canopy, space.
His chariots of wrath
the deep thunderclouds form,
and dark is his path
on the wings of the storm.
3 This earth with its store
of wonders untold,
Almighty, thy power
hath founded of old;
hath 'stablished it fast
by a changeless decree,
and round it hath cast,
like a mantle, the sea.
4 Thy bountiful care
what tongue can recite?
It breathes in the air,
it shines in the light;
it streams from the hills,
it descends to the plain,
and sweetly distills
in the dew and the rain.
5 Frail children of dust,
and feeble as frail,
in thee do we trust,
nor find thee to fail;
thy mercies how tender,
how firm to the end!
Our maker, defender,
redeemer, and friend.
6 O measureless Might,
ineffable love!
While angels delight
to hymn thee above,
thy humbler creation,
though feeble their lays,
with true adoration
shall sing to thy praise.
Scripture: Psalm 104:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: HANOVER
O Worship the King
The Head That Once Was Crowned with Thorns
Author: Thomas Kelly Hymnal: Rejoice in the Lord #335 (1985) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Hymns with Descants Lyrics: 1 The head that once was crowned with thorns
Iis crowned with glory now;
a royal diadem adorns
the mighty Victor’s brow.
2 The highest place that heav'n affords
is his, is his by right,
the King of kings and Lord of lords,
and heav'n’s eternal light--
3 the joy of all who dwell above,
the joy of all below,
to whom he manifests his love,
and grants his name to know.
4 To them the cross with all its shame,
with all its grace, is giv'n,
their name, an everlasting name,
their joy, the joy of heav'n.
5 They suffer with their Lord below,
they reign with him above,
their profit and their joy to know
the mystery of his love.
6 The cross he bore is life and health,
though shame and death to him;
his people's hope, his people's wealth,
their everlasting theme!
Scripture: Matthew 27:28-29 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. MAGNUS

bid we thus our anthem flow:
6 “Lord, thy glory fills the heaven;
earth is with its fullness stored;
unto thee be glory given,
Holy, holy, holy Lord.”

and hereafter in thy glory
evermore with thee to reign.

while unending ages run.

When Morning Gilds the Skies

my heart awaking, cries,
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
Alike at work and prayer,
to Jesus I repair.
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"

when from the heart we say,
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
The pow'rs of darkness fear
when this sweet chant they hear:
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"

in this your concord find:
"May Jesus Christ be praised!
Let all the earth around
ring joyous with the sound:
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"

the hosts of angels cry,
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
Let mortals, too, upraise
their voice in hymns of praise:

in joyful notes resound:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
Let air and sea and sky
from depth to height reply:
May Jesus Christ be praised!

of all our thoughts the last:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
The night becomes as day
when from the heart we say:
May Jesus Christ be praised!
5 In heav'n's eternal bliss
the loveliest strain is this:
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
Let air and sea and sky
from depth to height reply:
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
6 Be this, while life is mine,
my canticle divine,
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
Be this th'eternal song
through all the ages long:
"May Jesus Christ be praised!"
