Thy mercies, and thy love

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XIII (1789) Scripture: Psalm 25 Lyrics: 1 Thy mercies and thy love, O Lord, recal to mind; And graciously continue still, As thou wert ever, kind. 2 To me thy truth impart, And lead me in thy way: For thou art He that brings me help; On thee I wait all day. 3 Let all my youthful crimes Be blotted out by thee; And for they wond'rous goodness sake, In mercy think on me. 4 His mercy and his truth, The righteous Lord displays, In bringing wand'ring sinners home, And teaching them his ways. 5 He those in justice guides, Who his direction seek; And in his sacred paths shall lead The humble and the meek. 6 Through all the ways of God Both truth and mercy shine, To such as, with religious hearts, To his blest will incline.

Let all the just, to God, with joy

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.IV (1789) Scripture: Psalm 33 Lyrics: 1 Let all the just, to God, with joy, Their cheerful voices raise; For well the righteous it becomes, To sing glad songs of praise. 2 For faithful is the word of God; His works with truth abound; He justice loves; and all the earth Is with his goodness crown'd. 3 By his almighty word, at first, Heaven's glorious arch was rear'd; And all the beaut'ous hosts of light At his command appear'd. 4 The swelling floods, together roll'd, He makes in Heaps to lie; And lays, as in a storehouse, safe, The wat'ry treasures by. 5 Let earth, and all that dwell therein, Before him, trembling, stand; For, when he spake the word, 'twas made; 'Twas fix'd at his command. 6 Whate'er the mighty Lord decrees, Shall stand forever sure; The settled purpose of his heart To ages shall endure.

Approach, ye piously dispos'd

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XXXVII (1789) Scripture: Psalm 34 Lyrics: 1 Approach, ye piously dispos'd, And my instruction hear; I'll teach you the true discipline Of a religious fear. 2 Let him, who length of life desires, And prosp'rous ways would see, From sland'ring language keep his tongue, His Lips from falshood free: 3 The crooked paths of vice decline, And virtue's ways pursue; Establish peace, where 'tis begun; And, where 'tis lost, renew. 4 The Lord from heav'n, beholds the just With favourable eyes; And, when distress'd, his gracious ear Is open to their cries: 5 But turns his wrathful look on those Whom mercy can't reclaim, To cut them off, and from the earth Blot out their hated name.

O Lord, thy mercy, my sure hope

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XXXIX (1789) Scripture: Psalm 36 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, thy mercy, my sure hope, The highest orb of heav'n transcends, Thy sacred truth's unmeasure'd scope Beyond the spreading sky extends. 2 Thy justice like the hills remains; Unfathom'd depths Thy judgments are; Thy providence the world sustains, The whole creation is thy care. 3 Since of thy goodness all partake, With what assurance should the just Thy shelt'ring wings their refuge make, And saints to thy protection trust! 4 Such guests shall to thy courts be led, To banquet on thy love's repast, And drink, as from a fountain's head, Of joys that shall forever last. 5 With thee the springs of life remain, Thy presence is eternal day: O let thy saints thy favour gain: To upright hearts thy truth display.

As pants the hart for cooling streams

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XVII (1789) Scripture: Psalm 43 Lyrics: 1 As pants the hart for cooling streams, When heated in the chace, So longs my soul, O God, for thee, And thy refreshing grace. 2 For thee, my God, the living God, My thirsty soul doth pine! O when shall I behold thy face? Thou majesty divine! 3 I sigh whene'er my musing thoughts Those happy days present, When I with troops of pious friends Thy temple did frequent; 4 When I advanc'd with songs of praise, My solemn vows to pay, And led the joyful sacred throng And kept the festal day. 5 Why restless, why cast down, my soul? Trust God, and he'll employ His aid for thee; and change these sighs To thankful hymns of joy. 6 Why restless, why cast down, my soul Hope still, and thou shalt sing The praise of him who is thy God, Thy health's eternal spring.

God does his saving health dispense

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XL (1789) Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 God does his saving health dispense, And flowing blessings daily send, He is my fortress and defence; On him my soul shall still depend. 2 In Him, ye people always trust; Before his throne pour out your hearts; For God, the nerciful and just, His timely aid to us imparts. 3 The vulgar fickle are, and frail; The great dissemble and betray; And, laid in truth's impartial scale, The lightest Things will both outweigh. 4 Then trust not in oppressive ways; By spoil and rapine grow not vain; Nor let your hearts, if wealth increase, Be set too much upon your gain. 5 For God has oft his will express'd, And I this truth have fully known; To be of boundless pow'r possess'd, Belongs, of right, to God alone. 6 Tho' mercy is His darling grace, In which he chiefly takes delight; Yet will he all the human race According to their works requite.

O God, my gracious God, to thee

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XXII (1789) Scripture: Psalm 63 Lyrics: 1 O God, my gracious God, to thee My morning pray'rs shall offer'd be; For thee my thirsty soul does pant; My fainting flesh implores thy grace, Within this dry and barren place Where I refreshing waters want. 2 My life, while I that life enjoy, In blessing God I will employ, With lifted hands adore his name: My soul's content shall be as great As theirs who choicest dainties eat, While I with joy his praise proclaim. 3 When I lie down, sweet sleep to find, Thou, Lord, art present to my mind, And when I wake in dead of night: Because thou still dost succour bring, Beneath the shadow of thy wing, I rest with safety and delight.

To bless thy chosen race

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XXIII (1789) Scripture: Psalm 67 Lyrics: 1 To bless thy chosen race, In mercy, Lord, incline; And cause the brightness of thy face On all thy saints to shine: 2 That so thy wond'rous way May through the world be known; Whilst distant lands their tribute pay, And thy salvation own. 3 Let diff'ring nations join To celebrate thy fame; Let all the world, O Lord, combine To praise thy glorious name. 4 O let them shout and sing, Dissolv'd in pious mirth; For thou, the righteous Judge and King, Shalt govern all the earth. 5 Let diff'ring nations join, To celebrate thy fame; Let all the world, O Lord, combine To praise thy glorious name.

O Lord of hosts, my King and God

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XVIII (1789) Scripture: Psalm 84 Lyrics: 1 O Lord of hosts, my King and God, How highly blest are they, Who in thy temple always dwell, And there thy praise display! 2 Thrice happy they, whose choice has thee Their sure protection made; Who long to tread the sacred ways That to thy dwelling lead! 3 For in thy courts one single day 'Tis better to attend, Than, Lord, in any place besides A thousand days to spend. 4 Much rather in God's house will I The meanest office take, Than in the wealthy tents of sin My pompous dwelling make. 5 For God, who is our sun and shield, Will grace and glory give; And no good thing will he withhold From them that justly live. 6 Thou, God, whom heav'nly hosts obey, How highly blest is he, Whose hope and trust, securely plac'd, Is still repos'd on thee!

Thou Lord art good, not only good

Hymnal: CPHP1789 #P.XIX (1789) Scripture: Psalm 86 Lyrics: 1 Thou Lord, art good, not only good, But prompt to pardon too; Of plenteous mercy to all those, Who for thy mercy sue. 2 To my repeated humble pray'r, O Lord, attentive be! When troubled, I on thee will call, For thou wilt answer me. 3 Among the Gods there's none like thee, O Lord, alone divine! To thee as much inferiour they, As are their works to thine. 4 Therefore their great Creator, thee, The nations shall adore; Their long misguided pray'rs and praise To thy blest name restore. 5 All shall confess thee great, and great The wonders thou hast done; Confess thee God, the God supreme, Confess thee God alone.
