CHRIST's Compassion at the Weak and Tempted
Appears in 421 hymnals First Line: With joy we meditate the Grace Lyrics: 1 With Joy we meditate the Grace
Of our High Priest above;
His Heart is made of Tenderness,
His Bowels melt with Love.
Touch'd with a Sympathy within,
He knows our feeble Frame;
He knows what sore Temptations mean,
For he hath felt the same.
2 But spotless, innocent and pure
The great Redeemer stood,
While Satan's fiery Dartsv he bore,
And did resist to Blood.
He in the Days of feeble Flesh
Pour'd out his Cries and Tears,
And in his Measure feels afresh
What every Member bears.
3 He'll never quench the smoaking Flax,
But raise it to a Flame;
The bruised Reed he never breaks,
Nor scorns the meanest Name.
Then let our humble Faith address
His Mercy and his Pow'r,
We shall obtain deliv'ring Grace
In the distressing Hour.
CHRIST's Compassion at the Weak and Tempted
Ye people all abroad
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye people all abroad!
clap hands and voices raise
In honour to our GOD,
and loudly sing his praise.
2 The LORD most high
a dreadful King,
rules ev'ry thing
With majesty.
3 Whose nations of our foes
beneath our feet has thrown:
4 A fair possession chose
for us who are his own:
The dignity
of Israel
belov'd so well
By the most High (Selah)
5 GOD is gone up on high,
The LORD with trumpets sound,
With shouts triumphantly:
6 O praise our GOD renown'd:
His praises sing,
yea loudly raise
your voice to praise
Our sov'reign king.
7 For GOD is sov'reign King
of all the spacious earth:
With understanding sing
his praise with sacred mirth:
8 GOD reigns alone,
the nations stills;
GOD sits, and fills
His holy throne.
9 The princes gath'red are,
the princes of all lands,
And people far and near
whom Abr'ham's God commands:
The shields of all
The earth abroad
belong to GOD;
Him high extol! Scripture: Psalm 47
Ye people all abroad
Ye righteous, in the Lord
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye righteous in the Lord,
exceedingly rejoyce;
For it is comely for th' upright,
with praise to lift their voice.
2 With psaltries, harps and lutes,
sing praises to the LORD;
3 A new song loudly sing to Him,
with skill and sweet accord;
4 Because JEHOVAH's word
is altogether right;
And all his work is done in truth,
and brings his truth to light.
5 He loves all righteousness,
judgment and equity:
And all the earth is filled with
the LORD"s benignity.
6 For by JEHOVAH's word
the heav'ns had all their frame;
And by the spirit of his mouth
all armies of the same.
7 The waters of the sea
he gathers as an heap;
In channels as in treasuries
he lays up all the deep.
8 Let all throughout the earth,
the great JEHOVAH fear,
Let all the dwellers of the world
to Him deep rev'rence bear:
9 Because he did but speak
the word; and it was made;
He did but his commandment give,
and it was firmly staid.
10 JEHOVAH brings to nought
the schemes of nations wise;
He renders all in vain the plots
the subt'lest men devise.
11 The counsel of the LORD
abide for ever shall;
The cogitations of his heart,
to generations all.
[2 Part]
12 O blessed nation they,
whose God JEHOVAH is;
That people, for an heritage
He chosen hath as his.
13 The LORD from heav'n looks down,
on all the human race:
14 He all who dwell around the earth
views from his dwelling place.
15 He fashions at his will
the hearts of all mankind;
And all their operations he
attentively does mind.
16 By multitudes of hosts
no king himself can save,
The mighty by their greatest strength,
can not deliv'rance have.
17 A horse a vain thing is
to save one in the fight;
Neither can he deliv'rance give
by greatness of his might.
18 But lo, who fear the LORD,
on them, He sets his eye;
On them who place their lively hope
in his benignity.
19 To save our souls from death
by war and famine free;
20 Our souls will for JEHOVAH wait;
our help and shield is he.
21 We trust his holy name;
so our heart in Him joy.
22 LORD, let thy mercy be on us,
as we on Thee rely.

Ye servants of the Lord
Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Ye servants of the LORD,
who in the LORD's house wait,
And keep your watch before
the threshold of his gate;

2 Lift in his holy place,
your joyful hands on high;
And say, the LORD we bless.

3 And may he srill

Ye servants of the Lord
O God! have mercy upon me
Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O God! have mercy upon me,
According to thy bounteous grace;
And in thy mercies multitude
My many trespasses efface.
2 O wash me throughly from my guilt,
And from my sin me purify:
3 For all my sins I freely own;
My sin is always in mine eye.
4 Against Thee, Thee alone I sinn'd,
This crime committed in thy sight;
So when Thou speakest, Thou art just,
Thy judgment stands intirely right.
5 Behold, I with abasement own,
I shap'd was in iniquity;
And that my mother stain'd with sin,
She ev'n in sin conceived me.
6 Behold, it is the truth that Thou
Desirest in the inward part:
O do Thou make me wisdom know
Within the secret of my heart.
7 With sprinkling hyssop cleanse Thy me,
And I will pure and spotless grow;
O wash and make me wholly clean;
And I shall whiter be than snow.
[2 Part]
9 Of joy and gladness make Thou me,
To hear again the welcome voice;
That so the bones which Thou hast broke
May happily again rejoyce.
9 From the beholding of my sins
For ever turn away thine eyes;
And do Thou utterly efface
All my abhor'd iniquities.
10 O GOD, create in me an heart
Both clean and holy in thy sight,
And in me, O do Thou renew
A spirit steady and upright.
Cast me not from thy face; nor take
Thy Holy Spirit now from me;
12 Restore me thy salvation's joy:
Uphold me with thy spirit free.
13 Then from a bless'd experience I
Will sinners teach thy happy ways;
And sinners shall converted be,
To Thee, to love, obey and praise.
[3 Part]
14 O GOD! of my salvation God!
Deliver me from guilt of blood;
And of thy saving righteousness
My joyful tongue will sing aloud.
15 Lord, open Thou these lips of mine,
Which by my sin fast closed are:
And then will my enlarged mouth
thy praises publickly declare
16 For Thou desir'st not sacrifice
Of beast, that I might bring to Thee;
Nor in burnt off'rings dost delight,
That Thou should'st them accept of me.
17 But 'tis a spirit broke for sin,
Is GOD's approved sacrifice:
A broken and a contrite heart
O GOD, Thou never wilt despise.
18 And now to Zion, O do good
In thy good pleasure bounteously;
And of our dear Jerusalem,
Do Thou build up the walls on high.
19 Then Thou shalt with the sacrifice
Of righteousness well pleased be;
Burnt off'rings, whole burnt off'rings, calves,
They'll at thine altar offer Thee. Scripture: Psalm 51
O God! have mercy upon me
A Psalm of David
Appears in 3 hymnals First Line: Fools in their heart say, there's no God Lyrics: 1 Fools in their heart say, there's no GOD;
and so corrupt they grow:
Abominable sins commit,
and nothing good they do.
2 GOD from the heav'ns hath looked down
the sons of men to see,
If any that does understand,
That seeks to GOD there be.
3 They altogether filthy are,
they all are backward gone;
There is not any that does good
no not so much as one.
4 The workers of iniquity
do they not know at all?
That they my people east as bread,
on God they never call.
5 There they shall fear where no fear is:
For GOD will scatter them
Who thee beset: them He disdains,
and thou shalt put to shame.
6 O when will He salvation give
to his poor Israel,
From out his own Zion, where
He graciously does dwell?
When GOD his people shall return,
who have been captive led,;
Then Jacob will be mov'd with joy
And Isr'el greatly glad. Scripture: Psalm 53
A Psalm of David
A Psalm for Solomon
Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O God, Thy judgments give the King Lyrics: 1 O GOD, Thy judgments give the KING,
Thy righteousness give to his SON:
2 Then he'll thy people rightly judge
And to thy poor see justice done.
3 The mountains shall abundantly
To all the people bring forth peace;
The little hills abound
With joyful fruits of righteousness.
4 Poor of the people he will judge,
And children of the needy save:
He will to pieces break all those
Who with their fraud oppressed have.
5 They shall Thee fear while sun and moon
Endure, thro' generations all:
6 Like rain on mown grass he will come,
As show'rs on earth distilling fall.
7 The righteous shall lift up their heads,
Rejoyce and flourish in his reign;
And till the moon to shine shall cease,
He will abundant peace maintain.
8 His great and bless'd dominion shall
Abroad from sea to sea extend;
and from the river it shall reach
Quite to the earth's remotest end.
9 They in the wilderness who dwell,
In homage bow before him must;
His foes shall, falling at his feet,
In low prostration lick the dust.
10 The kings of Tarshish and the Isles,
To him shall costly presents bring;
Sheba's, and Seba's kings their gifts
To him as their superior King.
11 Yea all the kings throughout the earth,
To him shall bow, and homage pay;
And all the nations of the world
Shall Him as the supream obey.
12 Because he will the needy save,
When they to him for succour call,
Those who afflicted are, and those,
Who have no human help at all.
13 The feeble and necessitous,
He will in tender pity spare;
He will preserve and save the souls
Of those who poor and needy are.
14 Their souls from fraud and violence
His pow'r and mercy will redeem;
And in his eyes their blood shall be
Of precious worth and high esteem.
15 Long shall he live; and they shall bring
To him of Sheba's finest gold:
Pray'rs shall be always made for him,
And daily he shall be extoll'd.
16 Of corn an handful in the earth
Tho' on the tops of mountains sown,
The fruit shall rise, increase and wave
Like the tall trees of Lebanon.
And they who in the city dwell
Shall greatly flourish and abound,
In numbers like the fertile grass,
Which grows upon the richest ground.
17 His name for ever shall endure,
And shall continue as the sun;
In him all nations shall be blest,
And him proclaim the BLESSED ONE.
18 O let JEHOVAH blessed be,
The GOD, the God of Israel:
For by Himself alone he works
Such things as wond'rous are to tell.
19 O let his glorious name be bless'd
Eternal as his happy reign:
And let his glory fill the earth:
Repeat aloud, AMEN, AMEN.
[Common Metre]
18 O let the LORD GOD blessed be,
the GOD of Israel:
For by Himself alone he works,
things wonderful to tell.
19 O let his glorious name be bless'd,
eternal as his reign;
And let his glory fill the earth:
repeat, AMEN, AMEN.
Scripture: Psalm 72
A Psalm for Solomon
A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals First Line: O thou my soul, Jehovah bless Lyrics: 1 O Thou my soul, JEHOVAH bless,
his praise aloud proclaim,
Let all my pow'rs in me conspire,
to bless his holy name.
2 Still O my soul, JEHOVAH bless,
and ne'r do thou forget
His benefits so undeserv'd
so num'rous and so great.
3 He who most graciously forgives
all thine iniquities;
He all thy sicknesses removes,
and thine infirmities.
4 Who from the pit thy life redeems,
when ready to go down;
Does thee with loving-kindnesses,
and tender mercies crown.
5 Who with good things abundantly
doth satisfy thy mouth;
That like reviving eagles, so
renewed is thy youth.
[2 Part]
6 Judgment and justice still the LORD,
for all th' oppress'd will do:
7 His ways to Moses, and his acts
to Isra'ls race did shew.
8 Most merciful JEHOVAH is,
most gracious to be found;
To anger He is very slow,
in mercy does abound.
9 Tho' He contend with us a while,
He will not always chide;
Nor keep his anger in his breast
for ever to abide.
10 He hath not dealt with us in wrath
according to our sin;
Nor has He recompenced us
as our deserts have been.
11 But as the heav'n above the earth
in height surpasses far;
His mercy so transcends to all
who Him supreamly fear.
12 As far as east is from the west
in their vast distances,
So far hath He remov'd away
from us our trespasses.
[3 Part]
13 The pity of a father's heart
which he his sons doth bear,
The LORD such pity has for all
Who Him, as children, fear:
14 Because He knows this frame of ours,
He minds that dust are we:
15 Man's days like grass; like a field flow'r,
so flourishing is he;
16 Rut as the wind swift o'er it moves,
so quick away it goes;
And thence the place where it appear'd
no mere it ever knows,
17 But yet on them who fear the LORD,
His mercy ever is;
And on their children's children, so
descends his righteousness.
18 On such as keep his covenant
with strict integrity,
And his commandments bear in mind,
to do them faithfully.
[4 Part]
19 The LORD hath in the heav'ns on high
established his throne:
And as the world his kingdom is.
He reigns o'er all, alone.
20 O ye his angels that excel
in strength, bless ye the LORD;
Who his commandments always do
and hearken to his word.
21 O all ye armies of the LORD,
to bless JEHOVAH join;
His ministers, who to perform
his will, with joy combine.
22 O praise the LORD, all ye his works,
with which the world is full,
In his dominion every where:
the LORD bless, O my soul!
Scripture: Psalm 103

2 For thy hands labour thou shalt eat,
And shalt be happy all thy days.
3 Thy wife shall like a goodly vine
By thy house side be fruitful found:
Thy children like fair olive plants,
Adorn thy cheerful table round.

With earthly good shall blessed be:

Will heav'nly blessings send to thee.

Thou all thy happy life shalt view.

And peaceful times on Isr'el too. Scripture: Psalm 128

2 My voice, Lord, do Thou kindly hear!
And to my supplications voice,
O give Thou an attentive ear.
3 O JAH! if Thou shouldst mark our sins,
Who can before Thee stand, O Lord?
4 But there forgiveness is with Thee,
That Thou may'st humbly be ador'd.
5 I for the LORD wait; my soul waits,
And I hope in his faithful word:
6 Than watchers for the dawning look,
My soul more looks out for the Lord.
7 Let Isr'el then wait hopefully,
And ever on the LORD confide;
For boundless mercies with the LORD
To perpetuity abide.
8 Yea plenteous redemption is
Ev'n to eternity with him;
And Isr'el He from all their sins
Will to eternity redeem. Scripture: Psalm 130
Lord, from the deeps I cry to Thee
