9:4 4

The Lord is King: lift up thy voice, O earth,and all ye heav'ns re-joice:

From world to world the joy shall ring, The Lord Om-nip-o- tent is King. A-men.

19:

2 The Lord is King: who then shall dare 4 One Lord, one empire, all secures;
Resist His will, distrust His care,
Or murmur at His wise decrees,
Or doubt His royal promises?

3 The Lord is King: child of the dust,
The Judge of all the earth is just;
Holy and true are all His ways:
Let every creature speak His praise.

He reigns, and life and death are yours:
Through earth and heaven one song shall
"The Lord Omnipotent is King!" [ring,

5 O when His wisdom can mistake,
His might decay, His love forsake,
Then may His children cease to sing,
The Lord Omnipotent is King.

2 Soon as the evening shades prevail,
The moon takes up the wondrous tale,
And nightly to the listening earth
Repeats the story of her birth;

Whilst all the stars that round her burn,
And all the planets in their turn,
Confirm the tidings as they roll,
And spread the truth from pole to pole.

3 What though in solemn silence all
Move round this dark terrestrial ball;
What though no real voice nor sound
Amidst their radiant orbs be found;
In reason's ear they all rejoice,
And utter forth a glorious voice;
For ever singing, as they shine,
"The hand that made us is divine."

Listen, whilst to Thee we raise Songs of prayer,and songs of praise. A-men.

2 Light, and love, and life are Thine, Great Creator of all good;

Fill our souls with light divine;

Give us with our daily food Blessings from Thy heavenly store, Blessings rich for evermore.

3 Graft within our heart of hearts Love undying for Thy name; Bid us ere the day departs

Spread afar our Maker's fame: Young and old together bless, Clothe our souls with righteousness.

4 Full of years, and full of peace,

May our life on earth be blest;
When our trials here shall cease,
And at last we sink to rest,
Fountain of eternal love,
Call us to our home above.

Songs of praise a rose when He Captive led cap - tiv - i ty. A-men.

All the earth doth wor-ship Thee; We amid the throng would be. A-men.
