The Excellency of Public Worship
Author: D. Turner Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns #CCCXLII (1792) Topics: Worship Public Worship First Line: Lord of hosts, how lovely fair Lyrics: Lord of hosts, how lovely, fair,
E'en on earth thy temples are:
Here thy waiting people see
Much of heaven and much of thee.
2 From thy gracious presence flows,
Bliss that softens all our woes;
While thy spirit's holy fire
Warms our hearts with pure desire.
3 Here we supplicate thy throne,
Here thy mak'st thy glories known:
Here we learn thy righteous ways,
Taste thy love, and sing thy praise.
4 Thus with festive songs of joy
We our happy lives employ:
Love, and long to love thee more,
'Till from earth to heaven we soar.

My God, to thee I look;

And meet my God again?

My heart endures with pain.

And tears are my repast;
The foe insults without controul,

I think on ancient days:
Then to thy house did numbers go,
And all our work was praise.
5 But why, my soul, sink down so far
Beneath this heavy load?
My spirit, why indulge despair,
And sin against my God?
6 Hope in the Lord, whose mighty hand
Can all thy woes remove;
For I shall yet before him stand,
And sing restoring love. Scripture: Psalm 42:1-9 Languages: English

Where my dear God hath been,
Is sweeter than ten thousand days
Of pleasurable sin.

In such a frame as this,
And sit and sing herself away
To everlasting bliss.

It breathes in the air, it shines in the light,
It streams from the hills, it descends to the plain,
And sweetly distils in the dew and the rain.

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.

A Summons to Joyful Worship
Hymnal: The Psalter #222 (1912) Topics: Praise Part of Public Worship First Line: Now to God, our Strength and Saviour Lyrics: 1 Now to God, our Strength and Saviour,
Render praise and loudly sing;
In our fathers' God rejoicing,
All your noblest music bring.
2 Let the trumpet, far resounding,
This our festal day proclaim,
By our fathers' God appointed,
When from bondage Israel came.
3 I, thy God, removed thy burdens,
When thou calledst, set thee free,
Proved thee in the thirsty desert,
In the thunder answered thee.
4 O My people, hear My pleadings;
O that thou wouldst hearken now;
No strange worship shalt thou offer,
Nor to idols shalt thou bow.
5 I am God the Lord Who saved thee,
And from cruel bondage freed;
Open wide thy mouth of longing;
I will satisfy thy need.
6 But My people would not hearken,
Yea, they would not yield to Me;
So I left them in their blindness,
Their own counselors to be.
7 If My people would obey me,
Gladly walking in My ways,
Soon would I, their foes subduing,
Fill their lips with songs of praise.
8 All the haters of Jehovah
Shall His clemency implore,
And the days of those that love Him
Shall endure for evermore.
9 Yea, with wheat the very finest
I their hunger will supply,
Bid the very rocks yield honey
That shall fully satisfy.
