• [Mzm 101:1] Of Mercy And Of Justice

  Of mercy and of justice My thankful song shall be; O Lord, in joyful praises My song shall rise to Thee. Within my house I purpose To walk in wisdom’s way; O Lord, I need Thy presence; How long wilt Thou delay? On what is base and evil I will not set my heart; Transgressor’s ways abhorring, With them I take no part. No froward man or evil Shall my companion be; I will not suffer slander Or pride or treachery. The faithful and the upright Shall minister to me; The lying and deceitful My favor shall not see. I will in daily judgment All wickedness reward, And cleanse from evildoers The city of the Lord.

• [Mzm 101:1] To God The Anthem Raising

  To God the anthem raising, Sing, Christians, great and small; Sing out, His goodness praising, Oh, thank Him, one and all! Behold how God this year, Which now is safely ended, Hath in His love befriended His children far and near. Let us consider rightly His mercies manifold, And let us not think lightly Of all His gifts untold. Let thankfulness recall How God this year hath led us, How He hath clothed and fed us, The great ones and the small. To church and state He granted His peace in every place, His vineyard He hath planted Among us by His grace, His ever bounteous hand Prosperity hath given And want and famine driven From this our native land. His Father heart is yearning To take us for His own When, our transgressions mourning, We trust in Christ alone; When in His Name we pray And humbly make confession, He pardons our transgression And is our faithful Stay. Our God hath well defended, Hath kept us through His grace; But if He had contended With us our sins to trace And given us our meed, We all would then be lying In sin and sorrow, dying, Each one for his misdeed. O Father dear in Heaven, For all Thy gifts of love Which Thou to us hast given We lift our thanks above. In Jesus’ Name we here, To Thee our prayers addressing, Still ask Thee for Thy blessing: Grant us a joyful year.

• [Mzm 102:1] Lord, Hear My Prayer

  Lord, hear my prayer, and let my cry Have ready access unto Thee; When in distress to Thee I fly, O hide not Thou Thy face from me. Attend, O Lord, to my desire, O haste to answer when I pray; For grief consumes my strength like fire, My days as smoke pass swift away. My heart is withered like the grass, And I forget my daily bread; In lonely grief my days I pass And sad my thoughts upon my bed. My foes reproach me all the day, My drink is tears, my bread is grief, For in Thy wrath I pine away, My days are like a fading leaf. But Thou, Jehovah, shalt endure, Thy throne forever is the same; And to all generations sure Shall be Thy great memorial Name. The time for Zion’s help is near, The time appointed in Thy love; O let Thy gracious aid appear, Look Thou in mercy from above. O Lord, regard the prayer of those Who love the walls of Zion well, Whose hearts are heavy for her woes, Who sad amid her ruins dwell. Thy power and glory shall appear, And Zion’s walls shall be restored; Then all the kings of earth shall fear And heathen nations serve the Lord. The Lord, exalted on His throne, Looked down from Heav’n with pitying eye To still the lowly captive’s moan And save His people doomed to die. All men in Zion shall declare His gracious Name with one accord, When kings and nations gather there To serve and worship God the Lord.

  When my way is hedged about me, hedged with thorns of care; When the cross I loved so dearly, seems too hard to bear; When my heart is bowed with sorrow, and no light I see— Lord, Thy tender mercy pleading, let me lean on Thee. O, for faith to cast behind me every sad complaint— Faith to run and not be weary, walk and never faint; Thou dost know and feel my weakness, Savior look on me; Now Thy tender mercy pleading, let me lean on Thee. Closer let Thine arms enfold me, closer to Thy breast Draw my weary, trembling spirit, calm its doubts to rest; Give me strength for every burden Thou hast borne for me; Lord, Thy tender mercy pleading, let me lean on Thee.

• [Mzm 102:7] Lonely Voices Crying In The City

  Lonely voices crying in the city, Lonely voices sounding like a child. Lonely voices come from busy people, Too disturbed to stop a little while. Lonely voices fill my dreams, Lonely voices haunt my memory. Lonely faces looking for the sunrise, Just to find another busy day. Lonely faces all around the city, Men afraid, but too ashamed to pray. Lonely faces do I see, Lonely faces haunt my memory. Lonely eyes, I see them in the subway, Burdened by the worries of the day; Men at leisure, but they’re so unhappy, Tired of foolish roles they try to play. Lonely people do I see, Lonely people haunt my memory. Abundant life He came to truly give man, But so few His gift of grace receive. Lonely people live in every city, Men who face a dark and lonely grave. Lonely faces do I see, Lonely voices calling out to me.

• [Mzm 102:11] Hark! How Time’s Wide Sounding Bell

  Hark! how time’s wide sounding bell Strikes on each attentive ear! Tolling loud the solemn knell Of the late departed year: Years, like mortals, wear away, Have their birth, and dying day; Youthful spring, and wintry age, Then to others quit the stage. Sad experience may relate What a year the last has been! Crops of sorrow have been great, From the fruitful seeds of sin: O! what numbers gay and blithe, Fell by death’s unsparing scythe? While they thought the world their own, Suddenly he mowed them down. See how war, with dreadful stride, Marches at the Lord’s command, Spreading desolation wide, Through a once much-favored land: War, with heart and arms of steel, Preys on thousands at a meal; Daily drinking human gore, Still he thirsts, and calls for more. If the God, whom we provoke, Hither should His way direct; What a sin-avenging stroke May a land, like this, expect! They who now securely sleep, Quickly then, would wake and weep; And too late would learn to fear, When they saw the danger near. You are safe, who know His love, He will all His truth perform; To your souls a refuge prove From the rage of every storm: But we tremble for the youth; Teach them, Lord, Thy saving truth; Join them to Thy faithful few, Be to them a Refuge too.

  When on my day of life the night is falling, And in the winds, from unsunned spaces blown, I hear far voices out of darkness calling My feet to paths unknown. Thou, who hast made my home of life so pleasant, Leave not its tenant when its walls decay; O Love divine, O Helper ever present, Be Thou my strength and stay! Be near me when all else is from me drifting— Earth, sky, home’s pictures, days of shade and shine, And kindly faces to my own uplifting The love which answers mine. I have but Thee, my Father; let Thy Spirit Be with me then to comfort and uphold; No gate of pearl, no branch of palm I merit, Nor street of shining gold. Suffice it if—my good and ill unreckoned, And both forgiven through Thy abounding grace— I find myself by hands familiar beckoned Unto my fitting place. Some humble door among Thy many mansions, Some sheltering shade where sin and striving cease, And flows forever through heaven’s green expansions The river of Thy peace. There from the music round about me stealing I fain would learn the new and holy song, And find at last, beneath Thy trees of healing, The life for which I long.

As the wingèd arrow flies Speedily the mark to find; As the lightning from the skies Darts, and leaves no trace behind; Swiftly thus our fleeting days Bear us down life’s rapid stream; Upwards, Lord, our spirits raise, All below is but a dream.

Whose grace and care are endless And saved thee thro’ the past; Who leaves no suff’rer friendless, But rights the wronged at last.

God’s grace alone endureth, And children’s children yet shall prove How He with strength assureth The hearts of all that seek His love. In Heav’n is fixed His dwelling, His rule is over all; Angels, in might excelling, Bright hosts, before Him fall.

From Thy high celestial home, Judge of all, again returning, We believe that Thou shalt come In the dreaded doomsday morning; When Thy voice shall shake the earth, And the startled dead come forth. Therefore do we pray Thee, Lord: Help Thy servants whom, redeeming By Thy precious blood out-poured, Thou hast saved from Satan’s scheming. Give to them eternal rest In the glory of the blest. Spare Thy people, Lord, we pray, By a thousand snares surrounded: Keep us without sin today, Never let us be confounded. Lo, I put my trust in Thee; Never, Lord, abandon me.

• [Mzm 103:8] Lord, How Wondrous Are His Ways, The

  The Lord, how wondrous are His ways! How firm His truth! how large His grace! He takes His mercy for His throne, And thence He makes His glories known. Not half so high His power hath spread The starry heav’ns above our head, As His rich love exceeds our praise, Exceeds the highest hopes we raise. Not half so far hath nature placed The rising morning from the west, As His forgiving grace removes The daily guilt of those He loves. How slowly doth His wrath arise! On swifter wings salvation flies; And if He lets His anger burn, How soon His frowns to pity turn. Amidst His wrath compassion shines; His strokes are lighter than our sins; And while His rod corrects His saints, His ear indulges their complaints. So fathers their young sons chastise With gentle hand and melting eyes; The children weep beneath the smart, And move the pity of their heart. The mighty God, the wise and just, Knows that our frame is feeble dust; And will no heavy loads impose Beyond the strength that He bestows. He knows how soon our nature dies, Blasted by every wind that flies; Like grass we spring, and die as soon, Or morning flowers that fade at noon. But His eternal love is sure To all the saints, and shall endure; From age to age His truth shall reign, Nor children’s children hope in vain.

  When silent falls the gushing tear, O’er cheeks grown pale with care; And on the heart a cross is laid That seems too hard to bear, Remember what our Lord has said, And trust, in weal or woe, His holy Word, that changeth not, Though uttered years ago. Refrain “Like as a father pitieth His children, So the Lord pitieth them that fear Him, So the Lord pitieth them that fear Him.” When one by one our treasured hopes Like autumn leaves decay, And they who made our life most dear Are borne from us away, O look beyond the veil of time, Where springs of comfort flow, And trust His Word, that changeth not, Though uttered years ago. Refrain The clouds that bode the darkest hour The purest light may bring; The heart that mourns its broken chords The sweetest song may sing; Though oft a rugged path we tread, Yet this one thing we know, God’s holy Word can never change, Though uttered years ago.

  The moon shines bright and the stars give a light A little before the day: Our mighty Lord He looked on us, And bade us awake and pray. Awake, awake, good people all, Awake, and you shall hear, The Lord our God died on the cross For us He loved so dear. O fair, O fair Jerusalem, When shall I come to thee? When shall my sorrows have an end, Thy joy that I may see? The fields were green as green could be, When from His glorious seat, Our blessèd Father watered us, With His heavenly dew so sweet. And for the saving of our souls Christ died upon the cross; We ne’er shall do for Jesus Christ As He hath done for us. The life of man is but a span, And cut down in its flower, We’re here today, tomorrow gone, The creatures of an hour. Instruct and teach your children well, The while that you are here; It will be better for your soul, When your corpse lies on the bier. Today you may be alive and well, Worth many a thousand pound; Tomorrow dead and cold as clay, Your corpse laid underground. With one turf at thine head, O man, And another at thy feet; Thy good deeds and thy bad, O man, Will altogether meet.

He rides on the clouds, the wings of the storm, The lightning and wind His mission perform; The earth He has founded her station to keep, And wrapped as a vesture about her the deep. O’er mountain and plain the dark waters raged; His voice they obeyed, the floods were assuaged; Uplifting the mountains He ordered a bound, Forbidding the waters to cover the ground. He causes the springs of water to flow In streams ’mid the hills and valleys below; Beside them with singing the birds greet the day, And there the beasts gather their thirst to allay. He waters the hills with rain from the skies, And plentiful grass and herbs He supplies, Supplying the cattle, and blessing man’s toil With bread in abundance, with wine and with oil. The trees which the Lord has planted are fed, And over the earth their branches are spread; They keep in their shelter the birds of the air, The life of each creature the Lord makes His care.

Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy Name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him forevermore. Ye children of God’s covenant, Who of His grace have heard, Forget not all His wondrous deeds And judgments of His Word. The Lord our God is God alone, All lands His judgments know; His promise He remembers still, While generations go. While yet our fathers were but few, Sojourners in the land, He sware that Canaan should be theirs, And made His covenant stand. He suffered none to do them wrong In all their pilgrim way; Yea, for their sake were kings reproved And covered with dismay. His stern command restrained their foes And filled them with alarm; “Touch not Mine own anointed ones, Nor do My prophets harm.” He wholly broke the staff of bread And called for famine sore, And He prepared His people’s way By sending one before. Then Joseph, sold to slavery, With cruel chains was bound; Till his prediction came to pass, Distress and grief he found. The king released him from his bonds And made him rule the land, Subjecting chiefs and senators To his controlling hand. To Egypt Israel followed then, And there grew great and strong, Until their friends became their foes And did them grievous wrong. God sent His servant Moses then, And Aaron, whom He chose; Great signs and wonders they displayed To terrify their foes. In darkness they were taught to fear God’s great and holy Name; On man and beast, on vine and field, His awful judgment came. He smote the first-born in the land, The chief of all their strength, Enriched His people with the spoil And brought them forth at length. He led them forth in health and strength, None weak in all their band, And Egypt, filled with fear, rejoiced To see them leave the land. He spread a cloud to cover them, Most glorious and bright, And made a fiery pillar shine To give them light by night. At their request He sent them quails, And bread of Heav’n bestowed; And from the rock, to quench their thirst, The living waters flowed. His sacred word to Abraham He kept, though waiting long, And brought His chosen people forth With joy and thankful song. The lands and toil of wicked men He gave them to possess, That they might keep His holy laws, Jehovah praise and bless. Let hearts rejoice that seek the Lord, His holy Name adore; Seek ye Jehovah and His strength, Seek Him forevermore.

O who can show His glory forth, Or utter all His praise? The Lord will bless and prosper those, Yea, blest indeed are they Whose ways are just, who constantly His righteous law obey. O Lord, remember me in grace, Let me salvation see; The grace Thou showest to Thy saints, That grace reveal to me. Let me behold Thy people’s good And in their joy rejoice; With Thy triumphant heritage Let me lift up my voice. In evil we have gone astray, And sinful is our race; Rebelliously our fathers walked, Forgetful of Thy grace. Though they rebelled, yet for their help In saving strength He came To make His power almighty known And glorify His Name. He brought them safely through the sea And overwhelmed their foes; Their faith was stirred, and for the time Their songs of praise arose. Forgetful soon, they tempted God Nor for His counsel cared; He sent them leanness in their souls, While they earth’s bounties shared. With envy they regarded those Whom God to them had sent; The opening earth, the kindling flame, Brought awful punishment. A golden image they adored, And worshipped at its shrine; Thus they despised the living God, And scorned His love divine. Their God and Savior they forgot, Their Helper and their Stay, But Moses pled the promised grace And turned God’s wrath away. Yea, they despised the pleasant land, The promised land of God, And tempted Him to make them fall And scatter them abroad. They sacrificed to heathen gods, And God their sin repaid; Then holy wrath avenged the wrong, And so the plague was stayed. The Lord approved the righteous act Of him who sin abhorred, And honored him forevermore With just and great reward. By wicked strife they angered God, His wrath they did provoke; And stirred by their rebellious cries, Their leader rashly spoke. Ensnared, they served the heathen gods, And by them were beguiled; The blood of children sacrificed The very land defiled. Against His own inheritance Jehovah’s wrath arose, His chosen people He condemned To serve their heathen foes. Though from their harsh oppressors’ hand Ofttimes He set them free, Rebellious still, they were brought low In their iniquity. When unto God they cried, He heard And turned again His face, In boundless love remembering The covenant of His grace. He even touched their captors’ hearts, And made their very foes Compassionate and pitiful To feel His people’s woes. Save us, O Lord, our gracious God, From alien lands reclaim, That we may triumph in Thy praise And bless Thy holy Name. Blest be the Lord our covenant God, All praise to Him accord; Let all the people say, “Amen.” Praise ye, praise ye the Lord.

Heaven’s glory is Thy awful throne, Yet earth partakes Thy gracious sway: Vain man! Thy wisdom folly own, Lost is thy reason’s feeble ray.

• [Mzm 106:47] God Of The Nations, Who From Dawn Of Days

  God of the nations, who from dawn of days, Hast led Thy people in their widening ways, Through Whose deep purpose stranger thousands stand Here in the borders of our promised land. Thine ancient might rebuked the Pharaoh’s boast Thou wast the shield for Israel’s marching host, And, all the ages through, past crumbling throne And broken fetter, Thou hast brought Thine own. Thy hand has led across the hungry sea The eager peoples flocking to be free, And, from the breeds of earth, Thy silent sway Fashions the nation of the broadening day. Then, for Thy grace to grow in brotherhood, For hearts aflame to serve Thy destined good, For faith, and will to win what faith shall see, God of Thy people, hear us cry to Thee.
