Long have I sat beneath the sound
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #451 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 77 Lyrics:
Long have I sat beneath the sound
Of thy salvation, Lord;
But still how weak my faith is found,
And knowledge of thy word!
Oft I frequent thy holy place,
And hear almost in vain;
How small a portion of thy grace
My memory can retain!
[My dear Almighty, and my God,
How little art thou known
By all the judgments of thy rod,
And blessings of thy throne!]
How cold and feeble is my love!
How negligent my fear!
How low my hope of joys above!
How few affections there!
Great God! thy sovereign power impart
To give thy word success;
Write thy salvation in my heart,
And make me learn thy grace.
[Show my forgetful feet the way
That leads to joys on high;
There knowledge grows without decay,
And love shall never die.]

God Leads Us Along
Author: G. A. Young Hymnal: Hymns of Faith #432 (1980) Scripture: Psalm 77:6 First Line: In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet Refrain First Line: Some thro' the waters Lyrics: 1 In shady, green pastures, so rich and so sweet,
God leads His dear children along;
Where the water’s cool flow bathes the weary one’s feet,
God leads His dear children along.
Chorus:
Some thro' the waters, some through the flood,
Some thro' the fire, but all through the blood;
Some thro' great sorrow, but God gives a song,
In the night season and all the day long.
2 Sometimes on the mount where the sun shines so bright,
God leads His dear children along;
Sometimes in the valley, in darkest of night,
God leads His dear children along. (Chorus)
3 Tho' sorrows befall us and Satan oppose,
God leads His dear children along;
Through grace we can conquer, defeat all our foes,
God leads His dear children along. (Chorus)
4 Away from the mire and away from the clay,
God leads His dear children along;
Away up in glory, eternity’s day,
God leads His dear children along. (Chorus)

God is a name my soul adores
Author: Isaac Watts, 1674-1748 Hymnal: Common Praise #255 (2000) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Scripture: Psalm 77:19 Lyrics: 1 God is a name my soul adores,
the almighty Three, the eternal One;
nature and grace with all their powers
confess the infinite unknown.
2 Thy voice produced the sea and spheres,
bade the waves roar, the planets shine;
but nothing like thyself appears
through all these spacious works of thine.
3 Still restless nature dies and grows;
from change to change the creatures run:
thy being no succession knows,
and all thy vast designs are one.
4 A glance of thine runs through the globe.
rules the bright worlds and moves their frame;
of light thou form'st thy dazzling robe.
thy ministers are living flame.
5 How shall polluted mortals dare
to sing thy glory or thy grace?
Beneath thy feet we lie afar,
and see but shadows of thy face.
6 Who can behold the blazing light?
Who can approach consuming flame?
None but thy wisdom knows thy might,
none but thy word can speak thy name. Topics: Creation Languages: English Tune Title: BRESLAU

whose voice created, and whose wisdom guides,
on darkened souls in pure effulgence shine,
and cheer the clouded mind with light divine.
2 'Tis thine alone to calm the pious breast
with silent confidence and holy rest.
From thee, great God, we spring, to thee we tend --

Psalm 77 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.164 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Scripture: Psalm 77 First Line: To God I cried with mournful voice Lyrics:
To God I cried with mournful voice,
I sought his gracious ear,
In the sad day when troubles rose,
And filled the night with fear.
Sad were my days, and dark my nights,
My soul refused relief;
I thought on God the just and wise,
But thoughts increased my grief.
Still I complained, and still oppressed,
My heart began to break;
My God, thy wrath forbade my rest,
And kept my eyes awake.
My overwhelming sorrows grew,
Till I could speak no more;
Then I within myself withdrew,
And called thy judgments o'er.
I called back years and ancient times
When I beheld thy face;
My spirit searched for secret crimes
That might withhold thy grace.
I called thy mercies to my mind
Which I enjoyed before;
And will the Lord no more be kind?
His face appear no more?
Will he for ever cast me off?
His promise ever fail?
Has he forgot his tender love?
Shall anger still prevail?
But I forbid this hopeless thought;
This dark, despairing frame,
Rememb'ring what thy hand hath wrought;
Thy hand is still the same.
I'll think again of all thy ways,
And talk thy wonders o'er;
Thy wonders of recovering grace,
When flesh could hope no more.
Grace dwells with justice on the throne;
And men that love thy word
Have in thy sanctuary known
The counsels of the Lord.
