O Lord thou favour'd hast thy land

Appears in 1 hymnal Lyrics: 1 O Lord thou favour'd hast thy land Jacob's captivity; 2 Thou hast brought back, thou pardoned hast Thy folks iniquity, thou hast close covered all their sin. Selah. 3 Thou hast thy wrath off cast; Thou from the fierceness of thine ire Thy self returned hast. 4 Turn us again, O thou the God Of our salvation? And towards us cause thou to cease Thine indignation. Wilt thou be angry still with us For evermore? what shall Thine anger be by thee drawn out To generations all? 6 Wilt thou not us revive? in thee Thy folk rejoyce shall so; 7 Shew us thy mercy, Lord on us Thy saving health below. [2] 8 I'll hear what God the Lord will say, For surely he'll speak peace To's folk and saints, but let not them Return to foolishness. 9 Sure nigh to them that do him fear Is his salvation; That glory may within our land Have habitation. 10 Mercy and truth do jointly meet, Justice and peace do kiss; 11 Truth springs from th' earth and righteousness From heaven looking is. 12 Yea what is good the Lord shall give; Our land yield her increase. 13 Justice before him go and in the way her feet shall place. Scripture: Psalm 85

Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: We have a city very strong Lyrics: 1 We have a city very strong, God will appoint salvation, Her walls and bulwarks for to be. 2 Set open ye the gates, that so The righteous nation in may go, That doth observe the verity. 3 In perfect peace keep him thou wilt Whose thoughtful mind on thee is built, Because he doth on thee rely. 4 Trust in the Lord for evermore, For in the Lord Jehovah store Of strength is to eternity. 5 For he brings down who dwell on high, The lofty city low makes lie He lays it low ev'n to the floor, Ev'n to the dust he hath it thrown. 6 The poor man's feet shall tread it down, The feet and steps of needy poor. 7 Uprightness is the just man's way, Thou most upright his path dost weigh. 8 Yea, in thy judgment's way, O Lord. For thee we waited and enquire, To thy name is our soul's desire, And thee in mind still to record. 9 My soul by night desir'd hath thee; Yea, with my spirit, all in me In early seeking thee I yearn: For when on earth thy judgments be, The dwellers in the world shall see, That they thy righteousness may learn. 10 Let to the wicked grace be shown, Yet right'ousness learn will he none. But in the land of uprightness He will both deal unright'ously And he Jehovah's majesty Will not behold, him to confess. 11 Jehovah, when thy hand on high Is lifted up, they will not see: But see, and be asham'd shall they For envy at thy folk likewise, The fire of thy doom'd enemies Shall them devour, ev'n quite away, 12 Lord, peace for us ordain wilt thou, For in us thou hast wrought also Ev'n all our works, our God, O Lord, 13 Other Lords had dominion O'er us besides thee, but alone By thee we will thy name record. 14 They dead are, they shall live no more, They are deceased, they therefore Shall not arise, because thou hast Them visited, and hast them all Destroy'd, and their memorial Thou quite hast made away to waste. 15 Jehovah thou the nation Increased hast: the nation Thou hast increas'd abundantly Therefore thou glorified art, Thou hast remov'd it far apart, Where all the ends of th' earth do he. 16 They visit thee, Lord, in the hour Of trouble, out their pray'r do pour. On them when thy chastisements light. 17 As me that is to travail nigh Is pain'd, and out in pangs doth cry: So have we been, Lord, in thy sight. 18 We have conceiv'd, been paid, forth bro't As wind, and no deliv'rance wrought In earth, nor have the worldlings flew. 19 Thy dead, and mine, shall live and rise, Who dwell in dust, wake, sing likewise, For as the dew of herbs thy dew. Earth shall her dead cast out also. 20 My folk come, to thy chambers go, And shut thy doors about thee fast: Hide thou thy self now as it were But for a little moment there, Until the wrath be overpast. 21 For lo the Lord from's place doth come To execute on them the doom That do upon the earth remain Because of their iniquity: Earth also shall her blood descry, And cover shall no more her slain.

The Song of Hezekiah, after his Recovery from Sickness

Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: I said, in cutting off my days Lyrics: 10 I Said, in cutting off my days, Go to the gates of graves shall I. And of the remnant of my years I am deprived utterly. 11 I said, the Lord I shall not see, The Lord in land of life behold; And men no more behold shall I With them who dwell within the world. 12 Mine age away from me is put, And moved as a ahepherd's tent. I, weaver like, my life off cut; With pining sickness he me spent. From day, ev'n unto night until Thou quite an end of me wilt make, i3 I count from morning that he will My bones all as a lion break. From day to night thou wilt me waste. 14 Like crane or swallow chatter I, Dove like I mourn, mine eyes up cast Do fail, Lord, help, opprest am I. 15 What shall I say? to me he hath Both spoken and himself done this: I all my life with softly path, Shall walk in my soul's bitterness. 16 Lord by these things men live, and thou By these my spirits life dost give; Thou wilt recover me also, And thou wilt make me for to live. 17 Lo I for peace great grief did find, But freed my soul in love thou hast From pit's corruption: for behind Thy back thou all my sins didst cast. 18 For graves thy praise cannot make known, Nor yet can death thee celebrate! Such as into the pit go down, They for thy truth no more can wait. 19 The living he, the living will Thee praise, as I this day have done: The father to the children still Shall thy great faithfulness make known. 20 Ready to save me was the Lord: Therefore we will my songs of praise Sing in his house with one accord Throughout our life, ev'n all the days. Scripture: Isaiah 33

To the chief Musician. A Psalm of David

Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: The fool in's heart saith, there's no God Lyrics: 1 The fool, in's heart, saith, there's no God; They are corrupt each one, Abominable works they do; That doth good there is none. 2 The Lord from heaven looked down. On sons of men to see, If any that did understand, That seeketh God there be. 3 They altogether filthy are, They all aside are gone; There is not any that doth good No not so much as one. 4 The workers of iniquity Do they not know at all: That eat my folk, as bread they eat, On God they do not call. 5 There with a very grievous fear, Affrighted sore they were, For God i' th' generation is Of such as righteous are. 6 The counsel of the poor oppress'd, Ashamed you would make: And that because Jehovah he Doth for his refuge take. 7.

To the chief Musician on Neginoth, Machil, A Psalmof David

Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O God, do thou give ear Lyrics: 1 O God do thou give ear unto My supplication: And hide not thou thy self away From my petition. 2 O be attentive unto me, And answer me return; I in my meditation Do make a noise and mourn. 3 By reason of the en'mies voice, And vile one that oppress'd: For wickedness on me they cast, And me in wrath detest. 4 Mine heart in me is pained sore, Death's terrors me surprise: 5 Trembling and fear doth on me come, And horror on me seize. 6 Then did I say, O who to me Wings of a dove will give? That I might fly away, and might In quiet dwelling live. 7 Lo then far off I wander would, And in the desart stay. Selah. 8 Soon from the storm and wind I would The tempest 'scape away. [2] 9 O Lord on them destruction bring, Do thou their tongues divide: For strife and vi'lence I within The city have espi'd. 10 About it on the walls thereof They walk both night and day: Mischief also and sorrow do In middest of it stay. 11 In midst thereof there's wickedness, Deceit doth thee abide: Likewise out of the streets thereof Guile turneth not aside. 12 For 'twas no foe reproached me, I could it then abide: Nor did my hater vaunt o're me From him I could me hide. 13 But thou it was, the man that wert My well esteemed peer: Which wast to me my special guide, And mine acquaintance near. 14 We did together counsel take In sweet society: And we did walk unto the house Of God in company. 15 Let death seize on them, and let them Sink down quick into hell: For wickedness among them is, In places where they dwell. [3] 16 But as for me I'll call on God, And me the Lord save shall, At ev'ning, morn, and noon I'll pray, And I aloud will call: And he also will hear my voice. 18 Who hath my soul set free In peace from war that was 'gainst me: For many were with me. 19 God shall both hear and them afflict Who doth of old abide; Selah. Because that they no charges have, God's fear they laid aside. 20 'Gainst such as be at peace with him He hath put forth his hadn; He also hath the covenant Which he hath made profan'd. 21 Whilst war was in his heart, more smooth Than butter were his words: His words more soft than any oyl, But yet they were drawn swords. 22 Thy burden on Jehovah cast, And he support thee shall: He will not give the righteous man To be remov'd at all. 23 Thou God, shalt bring them down to hell, The men of blood who be And guile, shall not live half their days, But I will trust in thee. Scripture: Psalm 55

Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: O God, thou hast rejected us Lyrics: 1 O God thou hast rejected us and scattered us abroad: Thou hast displeased been with us, Return to us, O God. 2 The land to tremble thou hast caus'd, Thou it asunder brake: Do thou the breaches of it heal, For it doth moving shake. 3 Thou hast thy people caus'd to see Things that are hard to bear: And thou hast caused them to drink The wine of trembling fear. 4 But thou bestowed hast on them, A banner who thee fear; That it on high before the truth Displayed may appear, Selah. 5 That those that thy beloved are May be deliver'd free: O do thou save with thy right hand, And answer give to me. 6 God in his holiness hath spoke, Therein rejoyce I still; Shechem divide, and mete the vale Of Sucoth out I will. 7 To me doth Gilead appertain, Manasseh mine besides; Ephraim the strength is of my head, Judah my law prescribes. 8 Moab my washpot is, I will O'er Edom cast my shoe: O Palestine, because of me, Be thou triumphant too. 9 O who is it that will me bring Into the city strong? And into Edom who is he That will lead me along? 10 Is it not thou, O God, who did Us cast away thee fro; And thou, O God, who wouldest not Forth with our armies go? 11 From trouble give unto us help, For help of man is vain; Through God we'll do great acts, he shall Our foes tread with disdain. Scripture: Psalm 60
