And in the morning make me hear The love and kindness of thy heart. 6 Thus when the night of death shall come My flesh shall rest beneath the ground, And wait thy voice to rouse my tomb, With sweet salvation in the sound.

Lord, hear my Pray'r, and to my Cry

Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear my Pray'r, and to my Cry thy wonted Audience lend; In thy accustom'd Faith and Truth a gracious Answer send. 2 Nor at thy strict Tribunal bring thy Servant to be try'd; For in thy Sight no living Man can e'er be justify'd. 3 The spiteful Foe pursues my Life, whose Comforts all are fled; He drives me into Caves as dark as Mansions of the Dead. 4 My Spirit therefore is o'erwhelm'd, and sinks within my Brest; My mournful Heart grows desolate, with heavy Woes opprest. 5 I call to mind the Days of old, and Wonders thou hast wrought: My former Dangers and Escapes employ my musing Thought. 6 To thee my Hands in humble prayer I fervently stretch out; My Soul for thy Refreshment thirsts, like Land opprest with Drought. 7 Hear me with Speed, my Spirit fails; thy Face no longer hide, Lest I become forlorn, like them that in the Grave reside. 8 Thy Kindness early let me hear, whose Trust on thee depends; Teach me the Way where I should go: my soul to thee ascends. 9 Do thou, O Lord, from all my Foes preserve, and set me free; A safe Retreat against their Rage, my Soul implores from Thee. 10 Thou art my God, thy righteous Will instruct me to obey; Let thy good Spirit lead and keep my Soul in thy right Way. 11 O for the sake of thy great Name revive my drooping Heart: For thy Truth's Sake to me distress'd, thy promis'd Aid impart. 12 In Pity to my Suff'rings, Lord, reduce my Foes to Shame; Slay them that persecute a Soul devoted to thy Name.

Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: Oh, hear my prayer, Lord Lyrics: 1Oh, hear my prayer, Lord, And unto my desire To bow thine ear accord, I humbly thee require; And, in thy faithfulness, Unto me answer make, And, in thy righteousness, Upon me pity take. 2In judgment enter not With me thy servant poor; For why, this well I wot, No sinner can endure The sight of thee, O God: If thou his deeds shalt try, He dare make none abode Himself to justify. 3Behold, the cruel foe Me persecutes with spite, My soul to overthrow: Yea, he my life down quite Unto the ground hath smote, And made me dwell full low In darkness, as forgot, Or men dead long ago. 4Therefore my sp’rit much vex’d, O’erwhelm’d is me within; My heart right sore perplex’d And desolate hath been. 5Yet I do call to mind What ancient days record, Thy works of ev’ry kind I think upon, O Lord. 6Lo, I do stretch my hands To thee, my help alone; For thou well understands All my complaint and moan: My thirsting soul desires, And longeth after thee, As thirsty ground requires With rain refresh’d to be. 7Lord, let my pray’r prevail, To answer it make speed; For, lo, my sp’rit doth fail: Hide not thy face in need; Lest I be like to those That do in darkness sit, Or him that downward goes Into the dreadful pit. 8Because I trust in thee, O Lord, cause me to hear Thy loving-kindness free, When morning doth appear: Cause me to know the way Wherein my path should be; For why, my soul on high I do lift up to thee. 9From my fierce enemy In safety do me guide, Because I flee to thee, Lord, that thou may’st me hide. 10My God alone art thou, Teach me thy righteousness: Thy Sp’rit’s good, lead me to The land of uprightness. 11O Lord, for thy name’s sake, Be pleas’d to quicken me; And, for thy truth, forth take My soul from misery. 12And of thy grace destroy My foes, and put to shame All who my soul annoy; For I thy servant am.
