Behold! the mountain of the Lord
Hymnal: Together in Song #441 (1999) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Judgment of God Lyrics: 1 Behold! the mountain of the Lord
in latter days shall rise
on mountain tops above the hills
and draw the wondering eyes.
2 To this the joyful nations round,
all tribes and tongues, shall flow;
up to the hill of God, they'll say,
and to his house we'll go.
3 The beam that shines from Zion hill
shall lighten every land;
the king who reigns in Salem's towers
shall all the world command.
4 Among the nations he shall judge;
his judgments truth shall guide;
his sceptre shall protect the just,
and quell the sinner’s pride.
5 No strife shall rage, nor hostile feuds
disturb those peaceful years;
to ploughshares men shall beat their swords,
to pruning-hooks their spears.
6 No longer hosts encountering hosts
shall crowds of slain deplore;
they hang the trumpet in the hall
pursuing war no more.
7 Come then, O house of Jacob! come
to worship at his shrine;
and, walking in the light of God,
with holy beauties shine. Scripture: Isaiah 2:1-10 Languages: English Tune Title: GLASGOW

let the water and the blood,
from thy riven side which flowed,
be of sin the double cure,
cleanse me from its guilt and power.

can fulfill thy law's demands;
could my zeal no respite know,
could my tears for ever flow,
all for sin could not atone:
thou must save, and thou alone.

simply to thy cross I cling;
naked, come to thee for dress;
helpless, look to thee for grace;
foul, I to the fountain fly;
wash me, Saviour, or I die.

when my eyelids close in death,
when I soar through tracts unknown,
see thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee. Scripture: 1 John 1:5-10 Languages: English Tune Title: PETRA

through level pathways still.

Let God arise in all his might,
And put the troops of hell to flight,
As smoke that sought to cloud the skies
Before the rising tempest flies.
[He comes arrayed in burning flames
Justice and Vengeance are his names:
Behold his fainting foes expire,
Like melting wax before the fire.]
He rides and thunders through the sky;
His name, Jehovah, sounds on high
Sing to his name, ye sons of grace;
Ye saints, rejoice before his face.
The widow and the fatherless
Fly to his aid in sharp distress;
In him the poor and helpless find
A Judge that's just, a Father kind.
He breaks the captive's heavy chain,
And prisoners see the light again;
But rebels that dispute his will
Shall dwell in chains and darkness still.
Kingdoms and thrones to God belong;
Crown him, ye nations, in your song:
His wondrous names and powers rehearse;
His honors shall enrich your verse.
He shakes the heav'ns with loud alarms;
How terrible is God in arms!
In Isr'el are his mercies known,
Isr'el is his peculiar throne.
Proclaim him King, pronounce him blest;
He's your defence, your joy, your rest:
When terrors rise and nations faint,
God is the strength of every saint.

Oh GOD, my gracious GOD, to thee
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXIII (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 Oh GOD, my gracious GOD, to thee
My Morning Pray'rs shall offer'd be;
For thee my thirsty Soul doth pant;
My parched Flesh implores thy Grace,
Within this dry and barren Place,
Where I refreshing Waters want.
2 Oh! to my longing Eyes, once more,
That View of glorious Pow'r restore,
Which thy majestic House displays:
Because to me, thy wond'rous Love,
Than Life itself does dearer prove,
My Lips shall always speak thy Praise.
3 My Life, while I that Life enjoy,
In blessing GOD I will employ,
With lifted Hands adore his Name:
My soul's Content shall be as great,
As theirs, who choicest Dainties eat,
While I with Joy his Praise proclaim.
4 When down I lie, sweet Sleep to find,
Thou, LORD, art present to my Mind;
And when I wake in Dead of Night:
Because thou still dost Succour bring,
Beneath the Shadow of thy Wing
I rest with Safety and Delight.
5 My Soul, when Foes would me devour,
Cleaves fast to thee, whose matchless Pow'r,
In her Support is daily shown:
But those the righteous LORD shall slay,
That my Destruction wish, and they
That seek my Life, shall lose their own.
6 They by untimely Ends shall die,
Their Flesh a Prey to Foxes lie,
But GOD shall fill the King with Joy:
Who swears by thee, shall still rejoice;
Whilst the false Tongue, and lying Voice,
Thou, LORD, shalt silence and destroy. Scripture: Psalm 63 Languages: English Tune Title: [Oh, God, my gracious God, to thee]

Though wicked Men grow rich or great
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XXXVII (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 Though wicked Men grow rich or great,
Yet let not their successful State,
Thy Anger or thy Envy, raise;
Howe'er they boast of blissful Days:
For they cut down like tender Grass,
Shall find their Glories quickly pass;
Or like a Flow'r that droops its Head,
Whose Beauty soon begins to fade.
2 Depend on GOD, and Him obey,
So thou within the Land shalt stay;
Secure from Danger, and from Want,
And he shall thy Petitions grant:
Make His Commands thy chief Delight,
And then thy Duty to requite;
To thee in Mercy he'll impart,
The secret Wishes of thy Heart.
3 In all thy Ways trust thou the Lord,
And he will needful Help afford;
All thy Concerns to him resign,
Who'll perfect ev'ry just Design:
He'll make, as Light, serene and clear,
Thy clouded Innocence appear;
And will thy Righteousness display,
Bright as the Sun's meridian Ray.
4 With quiet Mind on GOD depend,
And patiently for him attend;
Nor let it e'er thy Anger raise,
When those who follow sinful Ways,
With large Possessions still abound,
And with Prosperity are crown'd;
But let thy Soul at once despise
Them and the Plots which they devise.
5 From Anger cease, and Wrath forsake;
Let no ungovern'd Passion make
Thy wav'ring Heart espouse their Crime.
But trust in GOD, and wait his Time;
For he shall sinful Men destroy;
Whilst only they the Land enjoy,
Who humbly seek the LORD most high,
And with firm Hope on him rely.
6 How soon shall wicked Men decay!
Their Place shall vanish quite away;
Nor shall, by the strictest Search, be seen,
The Traces where thy once have been:
Whilst humble Souls possess the Earth,
Rejoicing still with Godly Mirth;
With Plenty they shall still abound,
With gentle Peace be ever crown'd.
Part II
7 While sinful Crouds, with false Design,
Against the righteous few combine,
And gnash their Teeth, and daring stand,
To shake the vengeful threat'ning Hand;
GOD shall their empty Plots deride,
And laugh at their defeated pride;
And while his Justice they defy,
He sees their utter Ruin nigh.
8 They draw the Sword, and bend the Bow,
The Poor and Needy to o'erthrow;
They practise Mischief ev'ry Day,
The Men of upright Lives to slay:
But their strong Bows shall soon be broke,
Their sharpen'd Weapon's mortal Stroke,
Shall back to their own Bosoms turn,
And make their Hearts with Anguish burn.
9 A little, with God's Favour bless'd,
That's by a righteous Man possess'd,
Is always to be valued more
Than all the Sinner's costly Store:
For GOD supports the just Man's Cause;
But as for those that break his Laws,
On them he will his Vengeance show'r
And quell their unsuccessful Pow'r.
10 His constant Care the Upright guides,
And over all their Life presides;
Their Portion shall for ever last;
Their Fruits of Plenty they shall taste;
And when Distress o'erwhelms the Earth,
Shall be unmov'd; and ev'n in Dearth,
The LORD shall all their Wants supply,
And make their Hearts o'erflow with Joy.
11 Not so the wicked Men, and those,
Who proudly dare GOD's Will oppose:
Destruction is their certain Lot;
Their very Names shall be forgot:
Like Fat of Lambs, their Hopes and they
Shall in an Instant melt away;
Like Smoke, that vanishes in Air,
So shall they quickly disappear.
Part III
12 While Sinners, brought to sad Decay,
Still borrow on, and never pay;
The Just have Pow'r and Will to give,
And shall in flowing Plenty live:
For such as GOD vouchsafes to bless,
Shall peaceably the Earth possess;
And those he curses, shall not stand,
But fall by his Almighty Hand,
13 The good Man's Way is GOD's Delight;
He orders all the Steps aright,
Of him, who moves by his Command,
And still upholds him with his Hand:
Though he sometimes may be distress'd,
Yet shall he ne'er be quite oppress'd;
Since GOD with Help is always nigh,
For those who on his Pow'r rely.
14 Though Age doth o'er my Youth prevail,
Yet saw I ne'er the Righteous fail,
Or Want o'ertake his num'rous Race;
GOD made his offspring's Wealth increase;
Because Compassion fill'd his Heart,
And he did chearfully impart,
Thus GOD in Mercy is inclin'd;
To those who keep a gen'rous Mind.
15 With Caution shun each wicked Deed,
In virtuous Ways with Zeal proceed,
For GOD, who Judgment loves, does still
Preserve his Saints secure from Ill;
And never will forsake the Just,
Who place in him their only Trust;
But wicked Men shall soon decay,
And like vain Shadows pass away.
16 The Upright shall possess the Land,
His Portion shall for ever stand;
The Lord shall his Protection be,
And he shall walk from Danger free;
His Tongue by Rules of Judgment moves;
His Heart the Law of God approves;
His Mouth with Wisdom is supply'd,
And his sure Steps shall never slide.
Part IV
17 In wait the watchful Sinner lies,
In Hopes the Righteous to surprize;
But all his Schemes must prove in vain,
For he shall not his Purpose gain;
God will not him defenceless leave,
But when he's judged will reprieve;
His Faults in Mercy he will see,
And From Destruction set him free.
18 Still on the LORD with Hope rely,
And he shall all thy Wants supply;
Wait thou on him, keep his Command,
And then exalted in the Land,
A large Possession thou shalt gain,
And from thy Foes secure remain:
While wicked Men destroy'd shall be,
And thou their dismal Fall shalt see.
19 The Wicked I in Pow'r have seen,
And like a Bay-Tree fresh and green,
That spreads its pleasant Branches round,
Ev'n so was he with Plenty crown'd;
But he was gone as quick as Thought,
And, tho' I diligently fought,
Yet could I, by no Sign or Trace,
Or any Mark, find out his Place.
20 Observe the perfect Man with Care,
And mark all such as upright are;
Their roughest Days in Peace shall end,
And happy Hours on them attend:
Whilst on the latter End of those,
Who dare GOD's holy Will oppose,
A common Ruin, soon or late,
Shall surely be their dismal Fate.
21 GOD, to the Just will Help afford,
Their only Safe-guard is the LORD;
Their Strength in Time of Need is he,
Who will from Danger set them free:
Because on him they still depend,
The LORD will timely Succour send:
The Wicked thus shall ne'er prevail,
Nor shall the Righteous ever fail. Scripture: Psalm 37 Languages: English Tune Title: [Though wicked Men grow rich and great]
Though wicked Men grow rich or great
Vengeance belongs to thee, O GOD
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #XCIV (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 Vengeance belongs to thee, O GOD,
Thy Justice now disclose;
Arise, thou Judge of all the Earth,
And crush thy haughty Foes:
How long, O LORD, shall sinful Men,
Their solemn Triumphs make?
How long their wicked Actions boast,
And insolently speak?
2 Not only they thy Saints oppress,
But unprovok'd, they spill
The Widow's and the Stranger's Blood,
And helpless Orphans kill:
"And yet the LORD shall ne'er perceive,
(Profanely thus they speak)
"Nor any Notice of our Deeds,
"The God of Jacob take."
8 At length, ye stupid Fools, your Wants
Endeavour to discern;
In Folly will you still proceed,
And Wisdom never learn?
Can he be deaf who form'd the Ear,
Or blind who fram'd the Eye?
Shall Earth's great Judge not punish those,
Who his known Will defy?
4 He fathoms all the Thoughts of Men,
To him their Hearts lie bare;
His Eyes survey them all, and see
How vain their Counsels are.
Part II
5 Blest is the Man whom thou, O LORD,
In Kindness dost chastise;
And by thy sacred Rules to walk,
Most lovingly advise:
This Man shall Rest and Safety find.
In Seasons of Distress;
Whilst GOD prepares a Pit for those,
That stubbornly transgress.
6 For GOD will never from his Saints
His Favour wholly take;
His own Possession and his Lot,
He will not quite forsake:
The World shall then confess thee just,
On all that thou hast done;
And those that choose thy upright Ways,
Shall in those Paths go on.
7 Who will appear in my Behalf,
When wicked Men invade?
Or who, when Sinners would oppress,
My righteous Cause shall plead?
Long since had I in Silence slept,
But that the LORD was near,
To stay me when I slipt, when sad,
My troubled Heart to chear.
8 Wilt thou, who art a GOD most just,
Their sinful Throne sustain,
Who make the Law a fair Pretence
Their wicked Ends to gain?
Against the Lives of righteous Men,
They form their close Design;
And Blood of Innocence to spill,
In solemn League combine.
9 But my Defence is firmly plac'd
In GOD the LORD most high:
He is my Rock, to which I may
For Refuge always fly:
The LORD shall cause their ill Designs,
On their own Heads to fall:
He in their Sins shall cut them off,
Our GOD shall slay them all. Scripture: Psalm 94 Languages: English Tune Title: [Vengeance belongs to thee, O God]

Who place on Sion's GOD their Trust
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #CXXV (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 Who place on Sion's God their Trust,
Like Sion's lofty Rock shall stand;
Like her, immoveable be fix'd,
Establish'd by his mighty Hand:
Whose strong Foundations stand secure,
And shall for evermore endure.
2 Look how the Hills on ev'ry Side
The fair Jerusalem inclose;
So stands the LORD around his Saints,
To guard them from their Foes:
He shall their strong Protector be,
And from all Danger set them free.
3 The Wicked may afflict the Just,
But they shall not too long oppress,
Or force him by Despair to seek
Unrighteous Means for his Redress;
For GOD, who still remains his Friend,
From Heav'n shall speedy Succour send.
4 Do good, O righteous GOD, to those,
Who do in Goodness take Delight;
The Heart that Innocence retains,
To those thy choicest Blessings give,
Whose Hearts before thee are upright:
The LORD the Wicked shall destroy,
But crown his Saints with Peace and Joy. Scripture: Psalm 125 Languages: English Tune Title: [Who place on Sion's God their Trust]

My Soul for Help on GOD relies
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXII (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 My Soul for Help on GOD relies,
On GOD, who daily Strength supplies.
To his blest Will I am resigned;
From Him alone my Courage flows,
To bear the Shock of all my Foes,
When they against me are combined.
2 How long will ye my Fall contrive?
How long will ye against me strive,
And hasten on your own unding?
You'll totter like a bending Wall,
Like uncemented Stones shall fall,
And lie involv'd in sudden Ruin.
3 They daily Lies against me frame,
With Falshoods wound my spotless Name,
In secret still my Fall designing:
They strive to make my Honours less,
Though with their Mouths they seem to bless,
Their hearts to Curses are inclining.
4 But thou, my Soul, on GOD rely,
Who does continual Strength supply;
To his blest Will be thou resigned:
From him alone my Courage flows,
To bear the Shock of all my Foes,
When they against me are combined.
Part II
5 GOD does His saving Health dispense,
He is my Fortress and Defence;
My Soul on him alone depending:
In him ye People always trust,
For GOD, the merciful and just,
His timely Aid is ever sending.
6 The Vulgar fickle are and frail;
The great Ones oft in Judgment fail,
Or else are treach'rously betraying:
If in the Scale of Truth they're laid,
'Tis seen how lightly both are made,
The smallest Trifles them outweighing.
7 Then trust not in oppressive Ways,
Nor strive by lawless Force to raise,
Your growing Heaps of ill-got Treasure:
By Spoil and Rapine grow not vain,
Nor let your Hearts on worldly Gain,
Be fixt with such Delight and Pleasure.
8 For GOD has oft his Will express'd,
And is of boundless Pow'r possess'd;
In him are Grace and Truth united:
Belongs, of Right, to God alone.
Though Mercy is his Works takes Place,
Yet for their Deeds, the human Race,
Shall by his Justice be requited. Scripture: Psalm 62 Languages: English Tune Title: [My soul for help on God relies]

To thee, O GOD, we render Praise
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXXV (1767) Topics: Prophecies Predictions of God's Judgment upon the Ungodly and Wicked Lyrics: 1 To thee, O GOD, we render Praise,
To thee with daily Thanks repair;
For that thy Name to us is nigh,
Thy great and wond'rous Works declare.
For thou, O LORD, art still the same,
And very glorious is thy Name.
2 In Israel when my Throne is fix'd,
With me shall Truth and Justice reign;
The Land with Discord shakes, but I
The falling Pillars will sustain.
To Fools, I said, your Wrongs redress,
To wicked Men, your Pride suppress.
3 For that Promotion which to gain,
Your vain Ambition daily strives;
From neither East, nor West, nor North,
Nor yet from Southern Climes arrives.
For GOD will cast the Haughty down,
And lift the Humble to a Throne.
4 His Hand holds forth a dreadful Cup,
With purple Wine full mix'd 'tis crown'd,
The deadly Potion which his Wrath,
Shall pour upon the Nations round,
Its bitter Dregs shalt sinners squeeze,
And drink up all the deadly Lees.
5 But I will talk of Jacob's GOD,
And to the World his Pow'r relate;
His Justice, Truth and Mercy too,
My song shall ever celebrate;
The Wicked shall before him fly,
The Just shall be exalted high.
