Psalm 57: Be merciful to me, O God
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 57 First Line: Be merciful to me, O God Lyrics:
1Be merciful to me, O God;
thy mercy unto me
Do thou extend; because my soul
doth put her trust in thee:
Yea, in the shadow of thy wings
my refuge I will place,
Until these sad calamities
do wholly overpass.
2My cry I will cause to ascend
unto the Lord most high;
To God, who doth all things for me
perform most perfectly.
3From heav’n he shall send down, and me
from his reproach defend
That would devour me: God his truth
and mercy forth shall send.
4My soul among fierce lions is,
I firebrands live among,
Men’s sons, whose teeth are spears and darts,
a sharp sword is their tongue.
5Be thou exalted very high
above the heav’ns, O God;
Let thou thy glory be advanc’d
o’er all the earth abroad.
6My soul’s bow’d down; for they a net
have laid, my steps to snare:
Into the pit which they have digg’d
for me, they fallen are.
7My heart is fix’d, my heart is fix’d,
O God; I’ll sing and praise.
8My glory wake; wake psalt’ry, harp;
myself I’ll early raise.
9I’ll praise thee ‘mong the people, Lord;
’mong nations sing will I:
10For great to heav’n thy mercy is,
thy truth is to the sky.
11O Lord, exalted be thy name
above the heav’ns to stand:
Do thou thy glory far advance
above both sea and land.

Today I awake and God is before me
Thy mercy, Lord, to me extend
Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 57 Lyrics: 1 Thy Mercy, Lord, to me extend;
On thy Protection I depend;
And to thy wing for Shelter haste,
Till this outrageous Storm is past.
2 To thy Tribunal, Lord, I fly,
Thou Sov'reign Judge, and God most High,
Who Wonders hast for me begun,
And wilt not leave thy Work undone.
3 From Heav'n protect me by thy Arm,
And shame all those who seek my Harm:
To my Relief thy Mercy send,
And Truth, on which my Hopes depend.
4 For I with savage Men converse,
Like hungry Lions wild and fierce,
With Man whose Teeth are Spears, their Words
Invenom'd Darts, and two-edg'd Swords.
5 Be Thou, O God, exalted high;
And, as thy Glory fills the Sky,
So let it be on Earth display'd;
Till Thou art here, as there, obey'd.
6 To take me, they their Net prepar'd,
And had almost my Soul ensnar'd;
But fell themselves, by just Decree,
Into the Pit they made for me.
7 O God, my Heart is fix'd, 'tis bent,
Its thankful Tribute to present;
And, with my Heart, my Voice I'll raise
To Thee, my God, in Songs of Praise.
8 Awake, my Glory; Harp and Lute,
No longer let your Strings be mute:
And I, my tuneful Part to take,
Will with the early Dawn awake.
9 Thy Praises, Lord, I will resound
To all the list'ning Nations round:
10 Thy Mercy's highest Heav'n transcends;
Thy Truth beyond the Clouds extends.
11 Be Thou, O God, exalted high;
And, as thy Glory fills the Sky,
So let it be on Earth display'd;
Till Thou art here, as there obey'd.
Thy mercy, Lord, to me extend

Oh, Lord Have Mercy
To the chief Musician, Altaschith, Michtam of David, when he fled from Saul in the cave
Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 57 First Line: O God to me be merciful Lyrics: 1 O God to me be merciful,
Be merciful to me:
Because my soul for shelter safe
Betakes it self to thee;
Yea in the shadow of thy wings
My refuge I have plac'd.
Until these sore calamities
Shall quite be overpast.
2 To God most high I cry; the God
That doth for me perform.
3 He will from heaven send and save
Me from the spiteful scorn
Of him that wold with greedy haste
Me swallow utterly;
God will send forth his mercy kind,
Likewise his verity.
4 My soul amongst the lions is:
I fire brands lie among;
Men's sons whose teeth are spears and darts
And as sharp swords their tongue.
5 Above the heavens high do thou
Exalt thy self O God:
O let thy glory be extoll'd
O'er all the earth abroad.
6 They for my steps prepar'd a net,
My soul is bowed down;
They dig'd a pit for me, but they
In midst thereof are thrown. Selah
7 My heart prepared is, O God,
My heart prepared is:
8 Sing will I and sing praise with psalms,
Up, O my glory, rise.
Awake both psaltery and harp,
My self I'll early wake:
9 Among the people, Lord to thee
I will confession make:
Among the nations I'll thee praise
10 For thy benignity
Is great to heaven, thy truth likewise
Doth reach the cloudy sky.
11 Above the heavens high do thou
Exalt thy self O God:
O let thy glory be extoll'd
O'er all the earth abroad.

On Thee, my Savior and my God!
Well may this glowing heart rejoice,
And tell its raptures all abroad.

Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!
He taught me how to watch and pray,
And live rejoicing every day;
Happy day, happy day,
When Jesus washed my sins away!
2 O happy bond, that seals my vows
To him who merits all my love!
Let cheerful anthems fill His house,
While to that sacred shrine I move. (Chorus)

I am my Lord's and He is mine;
He drew me, and I followed on,
Charmed to confess the call divine. (Chorus)

Fixed on this blissful center, rest;
Nor ever from my Lord depart,
With Him of every good possessed. (Chorus)

There's a wideness in God's mercy
Author: Frederick William Faber (1814-1863) Meter: 8.7.8.7 Appears in 900 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 57:10 Lyrics: 1 There’s a wideness in God’s mercy,
like the wideness of the sea;
there’s a kindness in his justice,
which is more than liberty.
2 There is no place where earth's sorrows
are more felt than in God's heaven:
there is no place where earth's failings
have such kindly judgment given.
3 For the love of God is broader
than the measure of the mind:
and the heart of the Eternal
is most wonderfully kind.
4 If our love were but more simple,
we should take him at his word;
and our lives be filled with glory
from the glory of the Lord. Topics: The Living God Our Response to God - in adoration and gratitude; God in glory; God in grace and mercy; God Love of Used With Tune: ALL FOR JESUS
