The Psalms of David ‎#150a

150a. Waiting for an Answer to Prayer; or, Deliverance begun and compleated

1 Lord, thou hast call'd thy Grace to Mind,
Thou hast revers'd our heavy Doom;
So GOD forgave when Isr'el sinn'd,
And brought his wand'ring Captives Home.

2 Thou hast begun to set us free,
And made thy fiercest Wrath abate;
Now let our Hearts be turn'd to Thee,
And thy Salvation be complete.

3 Revive our dying Graces, Lord,
And let thy Saints in Thee rejoice;
Make known thy Truth, fulfil thy Word;
We wait for Praise to tune our Voice.

4 We wait to hear what GOD will say;
He'll speak, and give his People Peace;
But let them run no more astray,
Lest his returning Wrath increase.
