Hymnal: Doctor Watts's Imitation of the Psalms of David #266b (1787) First Line: Lord, when I count thy mercies o'er Lyrics: 1 Lord, when I count thy mercies o'er,
They strike me with surprise;
Not all the sands that spread the shore,
To equal numbers rise.
2 My flesh with fear and wonder stands,
The product of thy skill,
And hourly blessings from thy hands
Thy thoughts of love reveal.
3 These on my heart by night I keep;
How kind, how dear to me!
Oh may the hour that ends my sleep
Still find my thoughts with thee.
