• [Mzm 78:1] Let Children Hear The Mighty Deeds

  Let children hear the mighty deeds Which God performed of old; Which in our younger years we saw, And which our fathers told. He bids us make His glories known, His works of power and grace; And we’ll convey His wonders down Through every rising race. Our lips shall tell them to our sons, And they again to theirs; That generations yet unborn May teach them to their heirs. Thus shall they learn in God alone Their hope securely stands, That they may ne’er forget His works, But practice His commands.

• [Mzm 78:1] My People, Give Ear

  My people, give ear, attend to My Word, In parables new deep truths shall be heard; The wonderful story our fathers made known To children succeeding by us must be shown. Instructing our sons we gladly record The praises, the works, the might of the Lord, For He hath commanded that what He hath done Be passed in tradition from father to son. Let children thus learn from history’s light To hope in our God and walk in His sight, The God of their fathers to fear and obey, And ne’er like their fathers to turn from His way. The story be told, to warn and restrain, Of hearts that were hard, rebellious, and vain, Of soldiers who faltered when battle was near, Who kept not God’s cov’nant nor walked in His fear. God’s wonderful works to them He had shown, His marvelous deeds their fathers had known; He made for their pathway the waters divide, His glorious pillar of cloud was their guide. He gave them to drink, relieving their thirst, And forth from the rock caused water to burst; Yet faithless they tempted their God, and they said, Can He Who gave water supply us with bread? Jehovah was wroth because they forgot To hope in their God, and trusted Him not; Yet gracious, He opened the doors of the sky And rained down the manna in richest supply. With bread from on high their need He supplied, And more did He do when thankless they sighed; The strong winds commanding from south and from east He sent them abundance of quail for their feast. Though well they were filled, their folly they chose; Till God in His wrath o’erwhelmed them with woes; He slew of their strongest and smote their young men, But still unbelieving they sinned even then. Because of their sin He smote with His rod, And then they returned and sought for their God; Their Rock and Redeemer was God the Most high, Yet false were their praises, their promise a lie. Not right with their God in heart and in will, They faithlessly broke His covenant still; But He, in compassion, reluctant to slay, Forgave them and oft turned His anger away. His pity was great, though often they sinned, For they were but flesh, a swift passing wind; Yet though His compassion and grace they beheld, They tempted and grieved Him and often rebelled. They limited God, the Most Holy One, And hindered the work His grace had begun; The hand that was mighty to save they forgot, The day of redemption remembering not. Ungrateful and blind, no longer they thought Of wonders and signs and mighty deeds wrought, Of how all the rivers of Egypt ran red, And plagues in God’s anger were heaped on their head. They thought not of how, their freedom to gain, In Egypt’s abodes the first born were slain, And how all God’s people were led forth like sheep, The flock He delighted in safety to keep. Unharmed through the sea, where perished their foe, He caused them with ease and safety to go; His holy land gaining, in peace they were brought To dwell in the mountain the Lord’s hand had bought. He gave them the land, a heritage fair; The nations that dwelt in wickedness there He drove out before them with great overthrow And gave to His people the tents of the foe. Again they rebelled and tempted the Lord, Unfaithful, they turned to idols abhorred, And God in His anger withdrew from them then, No longer delighting to dwell among men. He gave them to death in battle, although His glory and strength were scorned by the foe; Their young men were fallen, their maidens unwed, Their priest slain in battle, none wept for the dead. Then mercy awoke, the Lord in His might Returned, and the foes were scattered in flight; Again to His people His favor He showed And chose in Mount Zion to fix His abode. His servant He called, a shepherd of sheep, From tending his flock, the people to keep; So David their shepherd with wisdom and might Protected and fed them and led them aright.

• [Mzm 78:1] O Come, My People, To My Law

  O come, My people, to my Law, Attentively give ear; With willing heart and teachable The words of wisdom hear. My mouth shall speak in parables Of hidden truths of old, Which, handed down form age to age, To us our fathers told. We will not from their children hide Jehovah’s worthy praise, But tell the greatness of His strength, His wondrous works and ways. A testimony and a law The Lord our God decreed, And bade our fathers teach their sons, That they His ways might heed. He willed that each succeeding race His deeds might learn and know, And children’s children to their sons Might all these wonders show. Let children learn God’s righteous ways And on Him stay their heart, That they may not forget His works, Nor from His ways depart.

• [Mzm 78:25] Very Bread, Good Shepherd, Tend Us

  Very Bread, Good Shepherd, tend us; Jesu, of Thy love befriend us; Thou refresh us, Thou defend us, Thine eternal goodness send us In the land of life to see: Thou Who all things canst and knowest, Who in earth such Food bestowest, Grant us with Thy saints, though lowest, Where the heav’nly feast Thou showest, Fellow heirs and guests to be.

• [Mzm 78:39] Days And Moments Quickly Flying

  Days and moments quickly flying Blend the living with the dead; Soon our bodies will be lying Each within its narrow bed. Soon our souls to God Who gave them Will have sped their rapid flight: Able now by grace to save them, O that, while we can, we might! Jesus, infinite Redeemer, Maker of this mighty frame, Teach, O teach us to remember What we are, and whence we came. Whence we came and whither wending, Soon we must through darkness go, To inherit bliss unending, Or eternity of woe. Jesus, merciful Redeemer, Rouse dead souls to hear Thy voice; Wake, O wake each idle dreamer Now to make the eternal choice. As a shadow, life is fleeting; As a vapor so it flies; For the old year now retreating Pardon grant, and make us wise; Wise that we our days may number, Strive and wrestle with our sin, Say not in our work, nor slumber Till Thy glorious rest we win. Soon before the Judge all glorious We with all the dead shall stand: Savior, over death victorious, Place us then on Thy right hand.
