Yea, I will extol Thee

Author: James Montgomery Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: Yea, I will extol thee, Lord of life and light Lyrics: Yea, I will extol Thee Lord of life and light, For Thine arm upheld me, Turn'd my foes to flight; I implored Thy succour, Thou wert swift to save, Heal my wounded spirit, Bring me from the grave. 193 Sing, ye saints, sing praises! Call His love to mind, For a moment angry, But for ever kind; Grief may, like a stranger, Through the night sojourn, Yet shall joy, to-morrow, With the sun return. In my wealth I vaunted, "Nought shall move me hence; Thou hast made my mountain, Strong in Thy defence:"-- Then Thy face was hidden, Trouble laid me low, "Lord," I cried right humbly, "Why forsake me so?" "Would my blood appease Thee, In atonement shed? Can the dust give glory?-- Praise employ the dead? Hear me, Lord, in mercy, God my Helper, hear." --Long Thou didst not tarry, Help and health were near. Thou hast turn'd my mourning Into minstrelsy, Girded me with gladness, Set from thraldom free: Thee my ransom'd powers Henceforth shall adore, Thee, my great Deliverer, Laud for evermore.
