Before Jehovah's awful throne

Author: I. Watts Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #14 (1913) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Worship in General; Worship in General Prayer and Praise Lyrics: 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 wandering 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.

Lord, with glowing heart I'd praise Thee

Author: F. S. Key Hymnal: The Lutheran Hymnary #15 (1913) Topics: Worship in General; Worship in General Prayer and Praise Lyrics: 1 Lord, with glowing heart I’d praise Thee, For the bliss Thy love bestows, For the pardoning grace that saves me, And the peace that from it flows: Help, O God, my weak endeavor; This dull soul to rapture raise: Thou must light the flame, or never Can my love be warmed to praise. 2 Praise, my soul, the God that sought thee, Wretched wanderer, far astray; Found thee lost, and kindly brought thee From the paths of death away; Praise, with love’s devoutest feeling, Him who saw thy guilt-born fear, And the light of hope revealing, Bade the blood-stained cross appear. 3 Lord, this bosom’s ardent feeling Vainly would my lips express; Low before Thy footstool kneeling, Deign Thy suppliant’s prayer to bless: Let Thy grace, my soul’s chief treasure, Love’s pure flame within me raise; And, since words can never measure, Let my life show forth Thy praise.
