Predestination
Author: Burnham Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #61 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Election and God's Decrees First Line: 'Twas fix'd in God's eternal mind Lyrics: 1 ’Twas fixed in God’s eternal mind
When his dear sons should mercy find;
From everlasting he decreed
When every good should be conveyed.
2 Determined was the manner how
Eternal favours he’d bestow;
Yea, he decreed the very place
Where he would show triumphant grace.
3 Also the means were fixed upon
Through which his sovereign love should run.
So time and place, yea, means and mode,
Were all determined by our God.
4 Vast were the settlements of grace
On millions of the human race;
And every favour, richly given,
Flows from the high decree of heaven.
5 [In every mercy, full and free,
A sovereign God I wish to see;
To see how grace, free grace has reigned,
In every blessing he ordained.
6 Yes, dearest Lord, ’tis my desire
Thy wise appointments to admire;
And trace the footsteps of my God,
Through every path in Zion’s road.] Languages: English
Predestination
Election
Author: W. Gadsby Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #530 (1844) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Election and God's Decrees First Line: Election is a truth divine Lyrics: 1 Election is a truth divine,
As absolute as free;
Works ne’er can make the blessing mine;
’Tis God’s own wise decree.
2 Before Jehovah built the skies,
Or earth, or seas, or sun,
He chose a people for his praise,
And gave them to his Son.
3 Eternal was the choice of God,
A sovereign act indeed;
And Jesus, the incarnate Word,
Secures the chosen seed.
4 He loved and chose because he would;
Nor did his choice depend
On sinners’ work, or bad or good,
But on his sovereign mind.
5 Nor law, nor death, nor hell, nor sin,
Can alter his decree;
The elect eternal life shall win,
And all God’s glory see.
6 His counsel stands for ever sure,
Immortal and divine;
And justice, mercy, truth, and power,
Unite to make it mine. Scripture: Ephesians 1:4-9 Languages: English
Election
The Kingship of Jesus Christ
Hymnal: The Psalter #3 (1912) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Divine Decrees First Line: Wherefore do the nations rage Lyrics: 1 Wherefore do the nations rage
And the people vainly dream
That in triumph they can wage
War against the King supreme?
Christ His Son a scoff they make,
And the rulers, plotting, say:
Their dominion let us break
Let us cast their yoke away,
Their dominion let us break,
Let us cast their yoke away.
2 But the Lord will scorn them all,
Calm, He sits enthroned on high;
Soon His wrath will on them fall,
Sore displeased He will reply:
Yet according to My will
I have set My King to reign,
And on Zion's holy hill
My Anointed I maintain;
And on Zion's holy hill
My Anointed I maintain.
3 This His word shall be made known,
This Jehovah's firm decree:
Thou art My beloved Son,
Yea I have begotten Thee.
All the earth at Thy request
I will give Thee for Thy own;
Then Thy might shall be confessed
And Thy foes be overthrown;
Then Thy might shall be confessed
And Thy foes be overthrown.
4 Therefore, kings, be wise, give ear,
Hearken, judges of the earth;
Learn to serve the Lord with fear.
Mingle trembling with your mirth.
Kiss the Son, lest o'er our way
His consuming wrath should break;
But supremely blest are they
Who in Christ their refuge take;
But supremely blest are they
Who in Christ their refuge take.
Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English Tune Title: HERALD ANGELS
The Kingship of Jesus Christ
O Wherefore Do the Nations Rage
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #3 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Decrees of God Lyrics: 1 O wherefore do the nations rage,
And kings and rulers strive in vain,
Against the Lord of earth and heaven
To overthrow Messiah's reign?
2 Their strength is weakness in the sight
Of Him who sits enthroned above;
He speaks, and judgments fall on them
Who tempt His wrath and scorn His love.
3 By God's decree His Son receives
The nations for His heritage;
The conquering Christ supreme shall reign
As King of kings, from age to age.
4 Be wise, ye rulers of the earth,
And serve the Lord with godly fear;
With reverent joy confess the Son
While yet in mercy He is near.
5 Delay not, lest His anger rise,
And ye should perish in your way;
Lo, all that put their trust in Him
Are blest indeed, and blest for aye. Scripture: Psalm 2 Languages: English Tune Title: UXBRIDGE

Free Election
Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #66 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Election and God's Decrees First Line: Deep in the everlasting mind Lyrics: 1 Deep in the everlasting mind
The great mysterious purpose lay,
Of choosing some from lost mankind,
Whose sins the Lamb should bear away.
2 Them, loved with an eternal love,
To grace and glory he ordained;
Gave them a throne which cannot move,
And chose them both to means and end.
3 In these he was resolved to make
The riches of his goodness known;
These he accepts for Jesus’ sake,
And views them righteous in his Son.
4 No goodness God foresaw in his,
But what his grace decreed to give;
No comeliness in them there is
Which they did not from him receive.
5 Faith and repentance he bestows
On such as he designs to save;
From him their soul’s obedience flows,
And he shall all the glory have. Languages: English

Electing Grace
Author: Watts Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #73 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Election and God's Decrees First Line: Jesus, we bless thy Father's name Lyrics: 1 Jesus, we bless thy Father’s name;
Thy God and ours are both the same,
What heavenly blessings from his throne
Flow down to sinners through his Son!
2 “Christ be my first elect,” he said;
Then chose our souls in Christ, our Head,
Before he gave the mountains birth,
Or laid foundations for the earth.
3 Thus did eternal love begin
To raise us up from death and sin;
Our characters were then decreed,
Blameless in love, a holy seed.
4 Predestinated to be sons,
Born by degrees, but chose at once;
A new regenerated race,
To praise the glory of his grace.
5 With Christ, our Lord, we share our part
In the affections of his heart;
Nor shall our souls be thence removed,
Till he forgets his first Beloved. Languages: English

Predestination
Author: Paice Hymnal: A Selection of Hymns for Public Worship. In four parts (10th ed.) (Gadsby's Hymns) #78 (1844) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Election and God's Decrees First Line: Fix'd was the eternal state of man Lyrics: 1 Fixed was the eternal state of man,
Ere time its rapid course began;
Appointed, by God’s firm decree,
To endless joy or misery.
2 Fixed was the vast eternal deep
Between the goats and chosen sheep;
Nor can a union e’er take place
’Twixt heirs of wrath and heirs of grace.
3 [Yet erring men make much ado,
And strive to force a passage through;
But, ah! what vain attempt is this,
To strive to ford that deep abyss!]
4 All glory to the great I AM,
Who chose me in the blessed Lamb;
Whilst millions of the human race
Will never know or taste his grace;
5 And blessings on atoning blood,
By which I’m reconciled to God;
And praise be to the Spirit given,
Who frees from sin and leads to heaven. Languages: English

Stormy winds that hear his call. [Refrain]

Aged men, and children small. [Refrain] Scripture: Psalm 148:1-13 Languages: English Tune Title: KIRKPATRICK
