HYMNS OF THE AGES.

1 Psalm c.

L. M. 1 All people that on earth do dwell,

Sing to the Lord with cheerful voice; Him serve with mirth, his praise forth tell,

Come ye before him and rejoice. 2 Know that the Lord is God indeed;

Without our aid he did us make; We are his flock, he doth us feed,

And for his sheep he doth us take. 3 Oh! enter then his gates with praise,

Approach with joy his courts unto; Praise, laud, and bless his name always,

For it is seemly so to do.
4 For why? the Lord our God is good,

His mercy is forever sure :
His truth at all times firmly stood,
And shall from age to age endure.

Rev. William Kethe, 1561.

2 Doxology.

L. M. PRAISE God, from whom all blessings flow Praise him, all creatures here below; Praise him above, ye heavenly host; Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

Bishop Thomas Ken (1637–1711), 1697.

3 Psalm c.

L, M 1 Before Jehovah's awful throne,

Ye nations, bow with sacred joy;
Know that the Lord is God alone;

He can create and he destroy.
2 His sovereign power, without our aid,

Made us of clay, and formed us men;
And when, like wand'ring sheep, we strayed,

He brought us to his fold again. 3 We are his people, we his care,

Our souls and all our mortal frame; What lasting honors shall we rear,

Almighty Maker, to thy name? 4 We'll crowd thy gates with thankful songs,

High as the heavens our voices raise; And earth, with her ten thousand tongues,

Shall fill thy courts with sounding praise. 5 Wide as the world is thy command,

Vast as eternity thy love; Firm as a rock thy truth must stand, When rolling years shall cease to move.

Rev. Isaac Watts (1674-1748.)

Rev. John Wesley (1703-1791.) 4

“Ein feste Burg ist unser Gott.” P. M. 1 A SAFE stronghold our God is still,

A trusty shield and weapon;
He'll help us clear from all the ill
That hath us now o'ertaken.

The ancient prince of hell
Hath risen with purpose fell;
Strong mail of craft and power

He weareth in this hour,
On earth is not his fellow.
