Midnight Thoughts Recollected

Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #LXIIIb (1785) First Line: 'Twas in the watches of the night Lyrics: 1 'Twas in the watches of the night I thought upon thy power, 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 heavenly 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 forever 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 in the deeps of hell. Scripture: Psalm 63:6-10 Languages: English
