Save Me, O God

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns to the Living God #69B (2023) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Save me, O God, the swelling floods Lyrics: 1 Save me, O God, the swelling floods break in upon my soul; I sink, and sorrows o'er my head like mighty waters roll. I cry till all my voice be gone; in tears I waste the day: my God, behold my longing eyes, and shorten Thy delay. 2 They hate my soul without a cause, and still their number grows more than the hairs around my head, and mighty are my foes. 'Twas then I paid that dreadful debt that men could never pay, and gave those honors to Thy law which sinners took away. 3 Thus in the great Messiah's name the royal prophet mourns; thus He awakes our hearts to grief, and gives us joy by turns. Now shall the saints rejoice, and find salvation in Thy name for I have borne their heavy load of sorrow, pain, and shame. 4 Grief, like a garment, clothed me round, and sackcloth was my dress, while I procured for naked souls a robe of righteousness. Amongst my brethren and the Jews I like a stranger stood, and bore their vile reproach to bring the Gentiles near to God. 5 I came in sinful mortals' stead to do my Father's will; yet when I cleansed my Father's house, they scandalized my zeal. My fasting, and my holy groans were made the drunkard's song; but God from His celestial throne heard my complaining tongue. 6 He saved me from the dreadful deep, nor let my soul be drowned; He raised and fixed my sinking feet on well established ground. 'Twas in a most accepted hour my prayer arose on high, and for my sake my God shall hear the dying sinner's cry. Topics: Supplication Scripture: Psalm 69 Languages: English Tune Title: KINGSFOLD
