Psalm 63 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.133 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: 'Twas in the watches of the night Lyrics: 'Twas in the watches of the night I thought upon thy power, I kept thy lovely face in sight Amidst the darkest hour. My flesh lay resting on my bed, My soul arose on high: "My God, my life, my hope," I said, "Bring thy salvation nigh." My spirit labors up thine hill, And climbs the heav'nly road; But thy right hand upholds me still, While I pursue my God. Thy mercy stretches o'er my head The shadow of thy wings; My heart rejoices in thine aid, My tongue awakes and sings. But the destroyers of my peace Shall fret and rage in vain; The tempter shall for ever cease, And all my sins be slain. Thy sword shall give my foes to death, And send them down to dwell In the dark caverns of the earth, Or to the deeps of hell.

Midnight Thoughts recollected

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXIIIb (1780) First Line: 'Twas in the watches of the night Lyrics: 1 'Twas in the watches of the night I thought upon thy pow'r, I kept thy lovely face in sight, Amidst the darkest hour. 2 My flesh lay resting on my bed, My soul arose on high; "My GOD, my life, my hope, I said, Bring thy salvation nigh." 3 My spirit labours up thine hill, And climbs the heav'nly road; But thy right hand upholds me still, While I pursue my GOD. 4 Thy mercy stretches o'er my head The shadow of thy wings; My heart rejoices in thine aid; My tongue awakes and sings. 5 But the destroyers of my peace Shall fret and rage in vain; The tempter shall for ever cease, And all my sins be slain. 6 Thy sword shall give my foes to death, And send them down to dwell In the dark caverns of the earth, Or to the deeps of hell. Scripture: Psalm 63:6-10 Languages: English
