Expectancy of Grace

Hymnal: The Psalter #232 (1912) Topics: Backsliding First Line: O Lord, to us Thy mercy show Lyrics: 1 O Lord, to us Thy mercy show, And Thy salvation now bestow; We wait to hear what God will say; Peace to His people He will speak, And to His saints, but let them seek No more in folly's path to stray. 2 His saving help is surely near To those His holy Name that fear; Thus glory dwells in all our land. Now heav'nly truth unites with grace, And righteousness and peace embrace, In full accord they ever stand. 3 Truth springing forth the earth shall crown, And righteousness from heav'n look down, And God on us His goodness shed; Our land shall then with plenty flow, Before Him righteousness shall go, And cause us in His steps to tread. Scripture: Psalm 85 Languages: English Tune Title: MELITA

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #242 (1740) Topics: Backsliding soul pardoned First Line: Out of the Deeps of long Distress Lyrics: 1 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. 2 Great GOD, should thy severer Eye, And thine impartial Hand, Mark and revenge Iniquity, No mortal flesh could stand. 3 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. 4 [I wait for thy Salvation Lord, With strong Desires I wait; My soul, invited by thy Word, Stands watching at thy Gate.] 5 [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; 6 So waits my Soul to see thy Grace, And more intent than they, Meets the first Op'nings of thy Face, And finds a brighter Day.] 7 [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. 8 There's full Redemption at his Throne For Sinners long enslav'd; The great Redeemer is his Son, And Isr'el shall be sav'd.] Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English

Covenant Faithfulness

Hymnal: The Psalter #243 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Backsliding First Line: In vision to His saints God spake Lyrics: 1 In vision to His saints God spake; From out the people one I take, A mighty leader, true and brave, Ordained, exalted, strong to save, Ordained, exalted, strong to save. 2 My chosen servant I appoint, With holy oil his head anoint; My hand with him shall still remain, My arm his strength shall well sustain, My arm his strength shall well sustain. 3 No enemy shall him affright, His adversaries I will smite, My faithfulness to him will prove, And never more My grace remove, And never more My grace remove. 4 Yea, he shall triumph in My Name, And great shall be his pow'r and fame, From sea to sea his mighty hand Shall hold dominion o'er the land, Shall hold dominion o'er the land. 5 Thou art my Father, he shall cry, My God, my rock of refuge high; My first-born son shall he be owned, Above the kings of earth enthroned, Above the kings of earth enthroned. 6 For him My mercy shall endure, My covenant made with him is sure, His throne and race I will maintain Forever, while the heavens remain, Forever, while the heavens remain. 7 Should sons of his My laws forsake, My just commands and statues break, Then, though My rod their sins reprove, My mercy I will not remove, My mercy I will not remove. 8 Though they be chastened sore and tried, My faithfulness shall yet abide; My plighted word I will not break, Nor change the promise that I spake, Nor change the promise that I spake. 9 My oath is steadfast, ever sure, My servant's race shall still endure; His throne forever firm shall stay When sun and moon have passed away, When sun and moon have passed away. 10 On Thy anointed wrath is poured As if Thy covenant were abhorred; Thou hast profaned his kingly crown, His matchless strength is broken down, His matchless strength is broken down. 11 He is reproached and spoiled of all, His enemies upon him fall; His beauty is consumed away, Forgotten is his kingly sway, Forgotten is his kingly sway. 12 Cut off in youth, his sacred name Is covered now with deepest shame; How long, O Lord, shall wrath abide? Thy face forever wilt Thou hide? Thy face forever wilt Thou hide? 13 Think on my life; O Lord, take thought; Hast Thou created man for nought? What man that lives has power to save His soul from death, and from the grave? His soul from death, and from the grave? 14 Where are Thy mercies which of old Where in Thy promises foretold? Remember, Lord, the bitter shame Heaped on Thy own anointed's name, Heaped on Thy own anointed's name. 15 Blest be the Lord for evermore, Whose promise stands from days of yore. His word is faithful now as then; Blest be His Name. Amen. Amen. Blest be His Name, Amen. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 89 Languages: English Tune Title: ROTHWELL

Pardoning Grace

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #243 (1740) Topics: Backsliding soul pardoned First Line: From deep Distress and trouble Thoughts Lyrics: 1 From deep Distress and troubled Thoughts. To thee, my GOD, I rais'd my Cries; If thou severely mark our Faults, No flesh can stand before thine Eyes. 2 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. 3 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? 4 My Trust is fix'd upon thy Word, Nor shall I trust thy Word in vain; Let mourning Souls address the Lord, And find Relief from all their Pain. 5 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.

Adoration and Submission

Hymnal: The Psalter #255 (1912) Topics: Backsliding First Line: Now with joyful exultation Lyrics: 1 Now with joyful exultation Let us sing Jehovah's praise; To the Rock of our salvation Loud hosannas let us raise; Thankful tribute gladly bringing, Let us come before Him now, And, with psalms His praises singing, Joyful in His presence bow. 2 For, how great a God, and glorious, Is Jehovah Whom we sing; Over idol-gods victorious, Great is He, our God and King. In His hand are earth's deep places, His the strength of all the hills; His the sea whose bounds He traces, His the land His bounty fills. 3 To the Lord, such might revealing, Let us come with rev'rence meet, And, before our Maker kneeling, Let us worship at His feet. He is our own God who leads us, We the people of His care; With a shepherd's hand He feeds us As His flock in pastures fair. 4 While He proffers peace and pardon Let us hear His voice today, Lest, if we our hearts should harden, We should perish in the way; Lest to us, so unbelieving, He in judgment should declare: Ye, so long my Spirit grieving, Never in My rest can share.
