P90c. Turn yet again to us, O Lord

13 Turn yet again to us, O Lord,
how long thus shall it be?
Let it repent thee now for those
that servants are to thee.

14 O with thy tender mercies, Lord,
us early satisfy;
so we rejoice shall all our days,
and still be glad in thee.
15 According as the days have been
wherein we grief have had,
and years wherein we ill have seen,
so do thou make us glad.

16 O let thy work and power appear
thy servants’ face before;
and shew unto their children dear
thy glory evermore:
17 and let the beauty of the Lord
our God be us upon:
and our hands' works establish thou,
establish them each one.
