In Thy Father-arm Thou bearest 119. EXALT OUR GOD. G.-I. S. M. Exalt our God in lofty praise resounding, Exalted He o'er place and time. Exalt our God, who every fate decideth 'Tis through His beaming light of grace. Exalt our God, creation's King supernal, His majesty all worlds declare; All things that are, are subject to th' Eternal, And join in thanks and praise and prayer. 120. HALLELUJAH. Hallelujah! Sing to the Lord in holy fear, H.-I. S. M. Extol the Lord from far and near; From North to South, from East to West, Hallelujah! Hallelujah! Who dare with God, our Lord, compare? He lends the pious strength and trust, Hallelujah! 121. THE ROCK OF SALVATION. (Hanukkah.) We will praise, O Lord, Thy grace, Thou our strength unfailing! God was ever at our side, M. J. Though our numbers were but small; Kindling new the sacred light, Priests approved in suffering; Glorified the God of might, Father of creation, Ever crown Thy nation. 122. L. S.-I. S. M. MY REFUGE LIVES ON HIGH. My refuge ever lives on high, He counts my tears, regards each sigh; My refuge ever lives on high, The weak He covers with His strength, My refuge ever lives on high, 123. THE GROWING DAY. H.-I. S. M. Oppressions shall not always reign; When freedom, burst from every chain, Then right shall over might prevail, What voice shall bid the progress stay What arm arrest the growing day, What arm shall dare, tho' stout and strong, The hour of triumph comes apace, When earth upon a ransom'd race 124. OUR HEROES. Lord, Thy banner's true defence When afore the foeman sought, Made thy dauntless courage quail. H. W. Heroes, up! On to the fight, For that flag means victories new; Not in numbers lies your might, 'Tis God's spirit wars for you. Thrilled with zeal, by courage fired, Held the flag with conquering hand. And that standard still our own, H.-I. S. M. 125. THE LIGHT WITHIN. O Lord, Thy children here to-day With wondrous might, from tyrant's hand We dedicate our lives to Thee, The precious flames of truth and love. P. M. |
