A Psalm of David

Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 40 First Line: With expectation from the LORD Lyrics: 1 With expectation from the LORD, I waited patiently; And He inclin'd to pity me, and heard my humble cry. 2 He brought me from the dreadful pit, and from the miry clay; And on a rock he set my feet, established my way. 3 A new song put He in my mouth, to praise our God on high; Which many shall behold, and fear, and on the LORD rely. 4 O greatly blessed are the men, who in the LORD confide; Who value not the proud, nor such, as turn to lies aside. [2 Part] 5 O LORD my God, how many are, the wonders thou hast wrought; What multitudes of kindnesses towards us hast thou thought. 6 Their sum in order, never can be reckon'd up to thee: If I would count them they are more, than e'er can number'd be. 7 Thou dost no sacrifice of beasts now off'ring now desire, sin off'rings thou requirest not, nor off'rings made by fire: 8 But mine ear piercest: then said I, 'Lo now I come to Thee; 'As in the volume of thy book ' 'tis written thus of me;' "To do thy will, is my delight, " O Thou my God who art! "Yea thy whole law is fised in "the centre of my heart." 9 "I in the congregation great, "thy righteousness did show; "Lo I have not refrain'd my lips, JEHOVAH thou dost know. 10 "I have not in my heart conceal'd, "thy perfect righteousness; "But thy salvation have declar'd, "and shown thy faithfulness. "Neither thy great binignity "have I at all conceal'd; Nor from the congregation great "have I thy truth with-held." 11 And now thy tender mercies, LORD with-hold thou not from me; But let thy mercy and thy truth keep me continually. 12 For evils more than can be told, encompass me around; My sins so seize and hold me fast, that they my sight confound. They're more than hairs upon my head, my heart is quite dismay'd: 13 O LORD, be pleas'd to rescue me, LORD< hasten to my aid. [3 Part] 14 With shame be they confounded, who my soul to ruin aim; Yea, all who evil wish to me, be driven back with shame. 15 With shame their spite shall be repaid, who mock my hope in Thee; Who sport of me in trouble make, they desolated shall be. 16 Let all who seek Thee, joy in Thee who firm in Thee confide; Who thy salvation love, cry out "the LORD be magnify'd." 17 I poor and needy am; and yet the Lord does think on me: For Thou my help and favour art: my god me quickly free.

Expectans expectavi

Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 40 First Line: I waited long and sought the Lord Lyrics: 1 I waited long and sought the Lord, and patiently did beare: At length he did to me accord my voice and cry to heare. 2 He pluck'd me from the lake so deep, out of the mire and clay: And on a rock he set my feet, and he did guide my way. 3 To me he taught a Psalms of praise, which I must shew abroad: And sing new songs of thanks alwaies unto the Lord our God. 4 When all the folk these things shall see as people much afraid: Then they unto the Lord will flee, and trust upon his aid. 5 O blest is he whose hope and heart doth in the Lord remaine: That with the proud doth take no part, nor such as lie and faine. 6 For Lord my God thy wondrous deeds in greatnesse far do passe: Thy favour towards us exceeds all things that ever was. 7 When I intend and do devise thy works abroad to show, To such a reckoning they do rise, thereof no end I know. 8 Burnt offrings thou delightst not in, I know thy whole desire: With sacrifice to purge his sin, thou dost no man require. 9 Meat-offerings and sacrifice thou wouldst not have at all: But thou (O Lord) hast open made mine eares to hear withall. 10 But then, said I, behold and look, I come a meane to be: For in the volume of the book Thus it is said of me. 11 That I (O Lord) should do thy mind, which thing doth please me well: For in my heart thy law I find, fast placed there to dwell. 12 Thy justice and thy righteousnesse in great resorts O te;;" Behold my tongue no time doth cease O Lord thou know'st full well. The second Part: 13 I have not hid within my breast thy goodnesse as by stealth: But I declare and have exprest thy truth and saving health. 14 I kept not close thy loving mind, that no man it should know: The trust that in thy truth I find, to all the Church I show. 15 Thy tender mercy (Lord) from me withdraw thou not away. But let thy love and verity preserve me still for aye. 16 For I with mischiefs many a one am sore beset about: My sins increase, and so come on, I cannot spie them out. 17 For why? in number they exceed the haires upon my head: My heart doth faint for very dread. that I am almost dead. 18 With speed send help and set me free, O Lord I thee require: Make hast with aid to succour me, O Lord at my desire. 19 Let them sustaine rebuke and shame, that seek my soule to spill: Drive back my foes, and them defame, that wish and would meill. 20 For their ill feats do them descrie, that would deface my name: Alwaies at me they raile and cry, fie on him fie for shame. 21 Let them in thee have joy and wealth, that seek to thee alwaies: That those that love thy saving health, may say to God be praise. 22 But as for me, I am but poore, opprest and brought ful low: Yet thou O Lord wilt me restore to health full well I know. 23 For why thou art my hope and trust, my refuge, help and stay: Wherefore, my God, as thou art just, with me no time delay.
