Maschil of Asaph

Hymnal: The Psalms, Hymns and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New Testament, faithully translated into English metre #PLXXVIII (1758) Scripture: Psalm 78 First Line: Attend my people to my law Lyrics: 1 Attend my people to my law, incline your listning ear; And the instructions of my mouth with strict attention hear. 2 My mouth shall parables explain, and sayings dark of old; 3 What we our selves have heard and known, and what our fathers told. 4 Them from their children we'll not hide, but to their race make known, JEHOVAH's praises, and his strength, and wonders he hath done. 5 This statute He in Jacobe set, this law in Isr'el made, And charg'd our fathers, they should be, from race to race convey'd: 6 That generations yet to come, them happily may know; And children to be born, and rise, the same to their's may show. 7 That they on the same mighty GOD Their confidence might set, God's works and his commandments keep, and never might forget. 8 And might not like their fathers be, a stiff, rebellious race; A race whose heart not right with God, nor spirit stedfast was. [2 Part] 9 The sons of Ephraim, tho' well arm'd and carrying warlike bows, Yet in the day of battle turn'd their backs before their foes 10 GOD's covenant they neither kept, nor in his law would go: 11 His works and wonders they forgot, Which He to them did show. 12 Things marvellous which he perform'd their fathers had behold; Within the land of Egypt wrought, and done in Zoan's field. 13 He cut the sea, and made them pass, held back the pressing flood; While up in heaps on either side, the waters firmly stood. 14 He led them with a wondrous cloud, compos'd of shade and light; A shelt'ring shade it prov'd by day, a light of fire by night. 15 While in the thirsty wilderness, the solid rock He clave; and thence, as from the boundless deeps. abundant drink He gave 16 Yea from the flinty rock He made such streams to gush and flow, That in full rivers down they ran, and water'd all below. [3 Part] 17 And yet for all, they more and more against Him did transgress; And more provoked the most High, while in the wilderness. 18 First in their hearts they tempted God, and did his pow'r distrust; Then meat requir'd, nor urg'd by want, but to indulge their lust. 19 Yea spake against the mighty GOD, and insolently said, 'Can God in such a wilderness, 'for us a table spread? 20 'He smote the flinty rock indeed, and gushing streams ensu'd; 'But can He bread and flesh provide, for such a multitude?' 21 The LORD with indignation heard, and kindled was a flame; On Jacob, on his Israel, the burning anger came. 22 Because their unbelieving hearts would not in GOD confide, Nor trust in his salvation, who had them so oft supply'd. [4 Part] 23 The clouds He order'd ev'ry night, their cravings to relieve; The doors of heav'n He op'ned wide, the choicest food to give. 24 On them He manna rained down, and round about them spread; The corn of heav'n He gave to them, ev'n for their daily bread. 25 So men the food of angels eat, were fed and satisfy'd; Yea of his bounty them with meat He to the full supply'd. 26 He caus'd an east wind thro' the air to blow at his command; And then He bro't the south wind forth by his almighty hand. 27 He rain'd upon them living flesh, Like summer's dust for store; And show'red down the feather'd fowls as sand upon the shoar. 28 Ev'n in their camp and round their tents He let them gently fall. 29 They eat, were fill'd, and their desire He fully gave to all. [5 Part] 30 Yet were they not estranged from their lust and murm'ring sin; But while their dainty meat was yet their loathing mouths within; 31 The wrath of GOD again arose, in plagues upon them fell; Which slew the fat ones, and smote down the flower of Israel. 32 And yet for all, they sinned still; his gracious soul they grieve: And tho' his works most wond'rous were, yet they would not believe. 33 Therefore their sinful days He made, in vanity to spend; Short'ned their years, and made them waste in trouble to their end. 34 When He among them slaughters made, They sought him speedily; Yea they return'd, and after God enquired earnestly. 35 For then they to remembrance call'd, how GOD, their rock had been; And how they had the most high God their great redeemer seen. 36 But basely flatter'd with their mouths, their tongues ev'n to Him ly'd. 37 Their heart was false, nor did they in his covenant abide. 38 Yet full of mercy, He forgave, nor would them wholly slay, Nor all his anger raise; but oft he turned his wrath away. 39 For He remember'd they were flesh that could not long remain; A wind that passes quick away, and ne'r comes back again! [6 Part] 40 How oft did they provoke Him there? how oft his heart they griev'd, In that same wilderness where He their fainting souls reliev'd? 41 Yea they perversely turned back, and tempted the most High; And they to Isr'els holy One set bounds, his pow'r to try. 42 They did not call to mind his hand, and that most wondrous day, When from oppressors He them freed and brought them all away: 43 Nor all the signs in Egypt's land He wrought before their eyes; Nor wonders done in Zoan's field upon their enemies. 44 Their springs and rivers turn'd to blood, that they could drink no more; 45 Vast swarms of diverse flies and frogs He sent them to devour. 46 To caterpillars gave their fruit, to locusts gave their toil: 47 With hail did He their vines destroy, great hail! their fig-trees spoil. 48 To storms of hail their cattle gave, which greatly them annoy'd, And then to fiery thunder bolts, which terribly destroy'd. 49 He on them his hot anger, wrath and indignation cast, By evil angels whom He sent, to vex and lay them waste. 50 He for his further wrath made way: their souls He did not save From death: and to the murrain plague their animals He gave. 51 Then in the land of Egypt He did all the first-born smite; And in the tents of cruel Ham the chief of all their might. 52 But like a flock of sheep He made His people forth to go; And in the desart like a flock with care He led them too. 53 He led them safely thro' the deeps; no cause of fear they found: But in the seas returning waves, their following foes were drown'd. 54 His people brought into the bounds of this his sacred land; This mountain which He purchas'd by the work of his right hand. 55 Before them cast the nations out, and did their lands divide; And in their tents he plac'd the tribes of Isr'el to reside. [7 Part] 56 Yet still they tempted, still provok'd, and griev'd the GOD most High, His sacred testimomies they would not keep faithfully: 57 But like their fathers turned back: And faithlessness did show: They turned quickly back just like a bent deceitful bow. 58 For they with altars Him provok'd set up in places high; And with their graven images inflam'd his jealousy. 59 GOD hearing this, was wroth, and loath'd Isr'el with hatred great: 60 So Shiloh's tent He left, the tent He had among men set. 61 Yea He gave up his ark of strength into captivity; His glory gave into the hand of a vile enemy. 62 His people gave up to the sword, to its devouring rage; And was exceeding angry with his chosen heritage. 63 The fire of war consum'd their youth, their maids unmarried were: 64 Their priests were slaughter'd in the field, no widows mourn'd them there. 65 But then the Lord arose as one who rous'd from sleep awakes; Yea as a giant rais'd by wine, a mighty shouting makes. 66 And on the enemies behind He made his strokes to fall; And put them all to open shame, a shame perpetual. [8 Part] 67 The tents of Joseph He did then and Ephraim's tribe refuse: 68 But Judah's tribe and Zion hill, which He hath lov'd, did chuse. 69 And there his sanctuary built like palaces on high; Like to the earth He founded hath to perpetuity. 70 Of David his young servant He the choice did kindly make; And from the foldings of the sheep the royal Shepherd take. 71 From following the ews with young, He rais'd him up to feed Isra'l his choice inheritance, his people, Jacob's seed. 72 So them he as a shepherd fed; and guided all the land, In his integrity of heart and skilfulness of hand.

Hear, O my People, to my Law

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #LXXVIII (1767) Scripture: Psalm 78 Lyrics: 1 Hear, O my People, to my Law, Your most devout Attention lend; Let the Instructions of my Mouth, Deep in your faithful Hearts descend, My Tongue shall Parables unfold, And bring to light dark Things of old. 2 Which our Fore-fathers pious Care, From ancient Times has handed down; Nor will we hide them from our Sons, But to our Offspring make them known, That they the Praises may be taught. Of GOD, who hat such Wonders wrought. 3 For Jacob he this Law ordain'd, This solemn League with Israel made, With Charge to be from Age to Age, From Race to Race with Care convey'd; To be transmitted to their Heirs, Which they again might give to their's. 4 That they might GOD's Commands obey, And in his Strength their Safety place; And not like their Forefathers prove A stubborn and rebellious Race, Who still the Paths of Error trod, Nor put their stedfast Hope in GOD. 6 Such were revolting Ephraim's Sons, Who from the Field ingnobly fled; Tho' skilful Archers arm'd with Bows, And to a constant Warfare bred; Tho' GOD to them his Works display'd, Yet they his Orders disobey'd, 7 The Wonders which their Fathers saw, They in their Minds did not retain; Prodigious Things in Egypt done, And Miracles in Zoan's Plain: For them he did the Sea divide, And pil'd in Heaps the pressing Tide. 7 A wond'rous Pillar led them on, Compos'd of Shade and radiant Light; A shelt'ring Cloud it prov'd by Day, And was a leading Fire by Night. Thus went they thro' a desart Land, Conducted by his powerful Hand. 8 When Drought oppress'd them, where no Streams The parched Wilderness supply'd, He cleft the Rock, whose flinty Breast Dissolv'd into a cooling Tide, Which down in plenteous Rivers fell, And prov'd a constant Miracle. 9 Yet there they sinn'd against him more, Provoking still the LORD most high, In that same Desart, where he did Their fainting Souls with Strength supply; His Pow'r supreme, they did distrust And long'd for Meat to feed their Lust. 10 Then utter'd their blaspheming Doubts, "Can God, say they, for us prepare "A Table in the Wilderness, "And set it out with various Fare? "'Tis true he did the Rock divide, "But can he Corn and Flesh provide" 11 The Lord with Indignation heard, And from the Heav'ns, avenging Flame On Jacob fell; consuming Wrath On most ungrateful Israel came: For they would not in GOD confide, Who had so oft their Wants supply'd. 12 Tho' GOD had from the fruitful Clouds, Around their Camp his Manna spread, And had the Angels sacred Food, Ungrateful Man in Plenty fed; Which from his own celestial Stores, Was rained down in frequent Show'rs. 13 From Heav'n he made an East Wind blow, And likewise did the South Command To rain down Flesh, like Dust, and Fowls Like the Sea Shore's unnumber'd Sands. Around their Tents an easy Prey, The flutt'ring, feather'd Booty lay. 14 Thus gave he them their Heart's Desire, And they luxurious eat the same; But whilst the Meat was in their Mouths, GOD's heavy Wrath upon them came; He slew the WEalthiest of them all, And Isreal's Chiefs were made to fall. Part II 15 Yet still they sinn'd, nor would afford His wond'rous Miracles Belief; Therefore thro' fruitless Travels he Consum'd their Lives in wasting Grief; When some were slain, with early Cry, They turn'd and sought the LORD most high. 16 But this was feign'd Submission all, Their treach'rous Hearts their Tongues bely'd, They still remain'd perverse, nor would Firm in his Covenant abide; And yet his Anger did not rise, Nor would with Death their Sins chastise. 17 For he remember'd they were Flesh, And could not long on Earth remain; A murm'ring wind that's quickly past, And never more return's again; His Mercy knew they were but frail, And would not let his Wrath prevail. 18 How oft did they provoke him there? How oft did they his Patience grieve! In that same Desart, where he did Their fainting Souls with Food relieve, They turned back, and faithless prov'd, And Isreal's GOD to Anger move'd. 19 Nor did they call to Mind the Day When GOD, with his Almighty Hand, Deliver'd them from all their Foes, And show'd them Signs in Egypt's Land, When he the Tribes from Bondage broguth, And wond'rous Things in Zoan wrought. 20 Their Rivers, that they might not drink, Were turn'd to Blood at his Command; Devouring Flies in thickest Swarms; And Frogs were sent to plague the Land; Locust and Worms o'erspread their Soul, And reap'd the Harvest of their Toil. 21 Their Vines with batt'ring Hail were broke, With pinching Frost the Fig-tree dies; Lightning and Hail makes Flocks and Herds, To fall one gen'ral Sacrifice. His Rage that had not Time to cease, Sent Sprirts of destroy their Peace. 22 He clear'd a Passage for his Wrath, Now would that Wrath severe controul; But gave their Life to Pestilence, Nor spar'd from Death the fainting Soul. Upon their Heirs Destruction came, The first born in the Tents of Ham. 23 But his own Tribe, like folded Sheep, He brought in Safety from Distress, And like a Flock, conducted them Thro' a long barren Wilderness. Their Foes were in the Ocean drown'd, But they no Cause of Terror found. 24 Nor ceas'd his Care, 'till them he brought In Safety to the promis'd Land; And to his holy Mount, the Prize Obtain'd, by his victorious Hand; For them he did his Arm extend. And from the foe their Host's defend. 25 To them, the outcast Heathen's Land, He did in equal Lot divide; And in their Foes abandon'd Tents, Made Israel's Tribes secure abide: For them he quell'd the Nations round, And plac'd them on the promis'd Ground. Part III 26 But still they tempted, still provok'd The Anger of the LORD most high; Nor would, to practise his Commands Their most rebellious Hearts apply: But turn'd like a deceitful Bow, And in their Father's Steps would go. 27 For GOD to Fury they provok'd With Idol Altars set on high, And with their graven Images, Inflam'd to Wrath his Jealousy; On Israel then his Hatred fell, And Shiloh, where he lov'd to dwell. 28 To vile Captivity, his Ark, His Strength and Glory to disdain, His People to the Sword he gave, Nor would his awful Wrath restrain: Amongst their Youth his Anger spread, Nor were their Maids to Marriage led. 29 In Fight the Sacrificer fell, The Priest himself a Victim bled; No were there any Widows left, Who should with Tears lament the Dead. Then like a Giant strong with Wine, The LORD awak'd in Wrath divine. 30 He smote his Foes, that from the Field Their vanquish'd, scatter'd Remnants came, With Wounds imprinted on their Backs, The Marks of everlasting Shame: The Tents of Joseph he forsook Nor Ephraim for his Dwelling took. 31 But Judah's favour'd Tribe he chose, And made his own peculiar Care; On Sion's Mount his Temple built, And fix'd its strong foundations there. From Sheep-Folds he did David bring, And over Judah made him King. 32 From tending on the teeming Ewes, He brought his Servant forth to feed His People, and Inheritance, The Tribes of Israel's chosen Seed: And he a faithful Shepherd still, Fed and conducted them with Skill.

Did'st thou O Saviour! condecend

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #XXV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 78 Lyrics: 1 Did'st thou O Saviour! condecend To take a human birth? Thou art our great and dearest friend That ever was on earth. 2 To make attonements for our guilt, As justice did demand; When circumcis'd thy blood was spilt And shed by human hand. 3 At the first shedding of thy blood Salvation was began; When thou, who art the Mighty God Was't circumcis'd as man. 4 Sweet is the sound of thy bless'd name! Where e'er it is applied: Thou art thy-self become the same What thy name signified. 5 Thy blood became the saving means For all the human race: To cleanse them from their countless sins, And make them heirs of grace. 6 What great, what condecending love! Did the dear Saviour show, When he left all the heav'ns above To save us here below. Topics: The Circumcision of Christ & New Years Languages: English
