I Thought upon the Days of Old

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #155 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Backsliding Lyrics: 1 I thought upon the days of old, The years departed long, I held communion with my heart, By night recalled my song. 2 My heart inquired with anxious care, Will God forever spurn? Shall we no more His favor see? Will mercy ne'er return? 3 Forever shall His promise fail? Has God forgotten grace? Has He withdrawn His tender love, In anger hid His face? 4 These doubts are my infirmity, My thoughts at once reply; I call back years of God's right hand, The years of God Most High. 5 I will commemorate, O Lord, Thy wondrous deeds of old, And meditate upon Thy works Of power and grace untold. 6 O God, most holy is Thy way, Most perfect, good, and right; Thou art the only living God, The God of wondrous might. Scripture: Psalm 77 Languages: English Tune Title: SAXONY

Out of the deeps of long distress

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #157 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Backsliding soul pardoned Lyrics: Out of the deeps of long distress, The borders of despair, I sent my cries to seek thy grace, My groans to move thine ear. Great God, should thy severer eye, And thine impartial hand, Mark and revenge iniquity, No mortal flesh could stand. But there are pardons with my God For crimes of high degree; Thy Son has bought them with his blood, To draw us near to thee. [I wait for thy salvation, Lord, With strong desires I wait; My soul, invited by thy word, Stands watching at thy gate.] [Just as the guards that keep the night Long for the morning skies, Watch the first beams of breaking light, And meet them with their eyes; So waits my soul to see thy grace, And, more intent than they, Meets the first openings of thy face, And finds a brighter day.] [Then in the Lord let Isr'el trust, Let Isr'el seek his face; The Lord is good as well as just, And plenteous is his grace. There's full redemption at his throne For sinners long enslaved; The great Redeemer is his Son, And Isr'el shall be saved.] Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English

From deep distress and troubled thoughts

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #158 (1835) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Backsliding soul pardoned Lyrics: From deep distress and troubled thoughts To thee, my God, I raised my cries; If thou severely mark our faults, No flesh can stand before thine eyes. But thou hast built thy throne of grace Free to dispense thy pardons there, That sinners may approach thy face, And hope and love, as well as fear. As the benighted pilgrims wait, And long, and wish for breaking day, So waits my soul before thy gate; When will my God his face display? My trust is fixed upon thy word, Nor shall I trust thy word in vain; Let mourning souls address the Lord, And find relief from all their pain. Great is his love, and large his grace, Through the redemption of his Son; He turns our feet from sinful ways, And pardons what our hands have done. Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English

Father, Again in Jesus' Name We Meet

Author: Lucy E. G. Whitmore Hymnal: Trinity Psalter Hymnal #168 (2018) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Topics: Backsliding Lyrics: 1 Father, again in Jesus' name we meet and bow in penitence beneath thy feet; again to thee our feeble voices raise to sue for mercy and to sing thy praise. 2 O we would bless thee for thy ceaseless care and all thy works from day to day declare. Is not our life with hourly mercies crowned? Does not thine arm encircle us around? 3 Alas, unworthy of thy boundless love, too oft our feet from thee, our Father, rove; but now, encouraged by thy voice, we come, returning sinners, to a Father's home. 4 O by that name in whom all fullness dwells, O by that love which ev'ry love excels, O by that blood so freely shed for sin, open blest mercy's gate and take us in. Scripture: Micah 7:18 Languages: English Tune Title: LANGRAN
