Psalm 102: O Lord, unto my pray'r give ear

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: O Lord, unto my pray'r give ear Lyrics: 1O Lord, unto my pray’r give ear, my cry let come to thee; 2And in the day of my distress hide not thy face from me. Give ear to me; what time I call, to answer me make haste: 3For, as an hearth, my bones are burnt, my days, like smoke, do waste. 4My heart within me smitten is, and it is withered Like very grass; so that I do forget to eat my bread. 5By reason of my groaning voice my bones cleave to my skin. 6Like pelican in wilderness forsaken I have been: I like an owl in desert am, that nightly there doth moan; 7I watch, and like a sparrow am on the house-top alone. 8My bitter en’mies all the day reproaches cast on me; And, being mad at me, with rage against me sworn they be. 9For why? I ashes eaten have like bread, in sorrows deep; My drink I also mingled have with tears that I did weep. 10Thy wrath and indignation did cause this grief and pain; For thou hast lift me up on high, and cast me down again. 11My days are like unto a shade, which doth declining pass; And I am dry’d and withered, ev’n like unto the grass. 12But thou, Lord, everlasting art, and thy remembrance shall Continually endure, and be to generations all. 13Thou shalt arise, and mercy have upon thy Sion yet; The time to favour her is come, the time that thou hast set. 14For in her rubbish and her stones thy servants pleasure take; Yea, they the very dust thereof do favour for her sake. 15So shall the heathen people fear the Lord’s most holy name; And all the kings on earth shall dread thy glory and thy fame. 16When Sion by the mighty Lord built up again shall be, In glory then and majesty to men appear shall he. 17The prayer of the destitute he surely will regard; Their prayer will he not despise, by him it shall be heard. 18For generations yet to come this shall be on record: So shall the people that shall be created praise the Lord. 19He from his sanctuary’s height hath downward cast his eye; And from his glorious throne in heav’n the Lord the earth did spy; 20That of the mournful prisoner the groanings he might hear, To set them free that unto death by men appointed are: 21That they in Sion may declare the Lord’s most holy name, And publish in Jerusalem the praises of the same; 22When as the people gather shall in troops with one accord, When kingdoms shall assembled be to serve the highest Lord. 23My wonted strength and force he hath abated in the way, And he my days hath shortened: 24Thus therefore did I say, My God, in mid-time of my days take thou me not away: From age to age eternally thy years endure and stay. 25The firm foundation of the earth of old time thou hast laid; The heavens also are the work which thine own hands have made. 26Thou shalt for evermore endure, but they shall perish all; Yea, ev’ry one of them wax old, like to a garment, shall: Thou, as a vesture, shalt them change, and they shall changed be: 27But thou the same art, and thy years are to eternity. 28The children of thy servants shall continually endure; And in thy sight, O Lord, their seed shall be establish’d sure. Scripture: Psalm 102

Psalm 102: Lord, hear my pray'r, and let my cry

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: Lord, hear my pray'r, and let my cry Lyrics: 1Lord, hear my pray’r, and let my cry Have speedy access unto thee; 2In day of my calamity O hide not thou thy face from me. Hear when I call to thee; that day An answer speedily return: 3My days, like smoke, consume away, And, as an hearth, my bones do burn. 4My heart is wounded very sore, And withered, like grass doth fade: I am forgetful grown therefore To take and eat my daily bread. 5By reason of my smart within, And voice of my most grievous groans, My flesh consumed is, my skin, All parch’d, doth cleave unto my bones. 6The pelican of wilderness, The owl in desert, I do match; 7And, sparrow-like, companionless, Upon the house’s top, I watch. 8I all day long am made a scorn, Reproach’d by my malicious foes: The madmen are against me sworn, The men against me that arose. 9For I have ashes eaten up, To me as if they had been bread; And with my drink I in my cup Of bitter tears a mixture made. 10Because thy wrath was not appeas’d, And dreadful indignation: Therefore it was that thou me rais’d, And thou again didst cast me down. 11My days are like a shade alway, Which doth declining swiftly pass; And I am withered away, Much like unto the fading grass. 12But thou, O Lord, shalt still endure, From change and all mutation free, And to all generations sure Shall thy remembrance ever be. 13Thou shalt arise, and mercy yet Thou to mount Sion shalt extend: Her time for favour which was set, Behold, is now come to an end. 14Thy saints take pleasure in her stones, Her very dust to them is dear. 15All heathen lands and kingly thrones On earth thy glorious name shall fear. 16God in his glory shall appear, When Sion he builds and repairs. 17He shall regard and lend his ear Unto the needy’s humble pray’rs: Th’ afflicted’s pray’r he will not scorn. 18All times this shall be on record: And generations yet unborn Shall praise and magnify the Lord. 19He from his holy place look’d down, The earth he view’d from heav’n on high; 20To hear the pris’ner’s mourning groan, And free them that are doom’d to die; 21That Sion, and Jerus’lem too, His name and praise may well record, 22When people and the kingdoms do Assemble all to praise the Lord. 23My strength he weaken’d in the way, My days of life he shortened. 24My God, O take me not away In mid-time of my days, I said: Thy years throughout all ages last. 25Of old thou hast established The earth’s foundation firm and fast: Thy mighty hands the heav’ns have made. 26They perish shall, as garments do, But thou shalt evermore endure; As vestures, thou shalt change them so; And they shall all be changed sure: 27But from all changes thou art free; Thy endless years do last for aye. 28Thy servants, and their seed who be, Establish’d shall before thee stay. Scripture: Psalm 102

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 100 hymnals First Line: O thou my soul, bless God the Lord Lyrics: 1O thou my soul, bless God the Lord; and all that in me is Be stirred up his holy name to magnify and bless. 2Bless, O my soul, the Lord thy God, and not forgetful be Of all his gracious benefits he hath bestow’d on thee. 3All thine iniquities who doth most graciously forgive: Who thy diseases all and pains doth heal, and thee relieve. 4Who doth redeem thy life, that thou to death may’st not go down; Who thee with loving-kindness doth and tender mercies crown: 5Who with abundance of good things doth satisfy thy mouth; So that, ev’n as the eagle’s age, renewed is thy youth. 6God righteous judgment executes for all oppressed ones. 7His ways to Moses, he his acts made known to Isr’el’s sons. 8The Lord our God is merciful, and he is gracious, Long-suffering, and slow to wrath, in mercy plenteous. 9He will not chide continually, nor keep his anger still. 10With us he dealt not as we sinn’d, nor did requite our ill. 11For as the heaven in its height the earth surmounteth far; So great to those that do him fear his tender mercies are: 12As far as east is distant from the west, so far hath he From us removed, in his love, all our iniquity. 13Such pity as a father hath unto his children dear; Like pity shews the Lord to such as worship him in fear. 14For he remembers we are dust, and he our frame well knows. 15Frail man, his days are like the grass, as flow’r in field he grows: 16For over it the wind doth pass, and it away is gone; And of the place where once it was it shall no more be known. 17But unto them that do him fear God’s mercy never ends; And to their children’s children still his righteousness extends: 18To such as keep his covenant, and mindful are alway Of his most just commandements, that they may them obey. 19The Lord prepared hath his throne in heavens firm to stand; And ev’ry thing that being hath his kingdom doth command. 20O ye his angels, that excel in strength, bless ye the Lord; Ye who obey what he commands, and hearken to his word. 21O bless and magnify the Lord, ye glorious hosts of his; Ye ministers, that do fulfil whate’er his pleasure is. 22O bless the Lord, all ye his works, wherewith the world is stor’d In his dominions ev’ry where. My soul, bless thou the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 103

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 12 hymnals First Line: Bless God, my soul. O Lord my God Lyrics: 1Bless God, my soul. O Lord my God, thou art exceeding great; With honour and with majesty thou clothed art in state. 2With light, as with a robe, thyself thou coverest about; And, like unto a curtain, thou the heavens stretchest out. 3Who of his chambers doth the beams within the waters lay; Who doth the clouds his chariot make, on wings of wind make way. 4Who flaming fire his ministers, his angels sp’rits, doth make: 5Who earth’s foundations did lay, that it should never shake. 6Thou didst it cover with the deep, as with a garment spread: The waters stood above the hills, when thou the word but said. 7But at the voice of thy rebuke they fled, and would not stay; They at thy thunder’s dreadful voice did haste them fast away. 8They by the mountains do ascend, and by the valley-ground Descend, unto that very place which thou for them didst found. 9Thou hast a bound unto them set, that they may not pass over, That they do not return again the face of earth to cover. 10He to the valleys sends the springs, which run among the hills: 11They to all beasts of field give drink, wild asses drink their fills. 12By them the fowls of heav’n shall have their habitation, Which do among the branches sing with delectation. 13He from his chambers watereth the hills, when they are dry’d: With fruit and increase of thy works the earth is satisfy’d. 14For cattle he makes grass to grow, he makes the herb to spring For th’ use of man, that food to him he from the earth may bring; 15And wine, that to the heart of man doth cheerfulness impart, Oil that his face makes shine, and bread that strengtheneth his heart. 16The trees of God are full of sap; the cedars that do stand In Lebanon, which planted were by his almighty hand. 17Birds of the air upon their boughs do chuse their nests to make; As for the stork, the fir-tree she doth for her dwelling take. 18The lofty mountains for wild goats a place of refuge be; The conies also to the rocks do for their safety flee. 19He sets the moon in heav’n, thereby the seasons to discern: From him the sun his certain time of going down doth learn. 20Thou darkness mak’st, ‘tis night, then beasts of forests creep abroad. 21The lions young roar for their prey, and seek their meat from God. 22The sun doth rise, and home they flock, down in their dens they lie. 23Man goes to work, his labour he doth to the ev’ning ply. 24How manifold, Lord, are thy works! in wisdom wonderful Thou ev’ry one of them hast made; earth’s of thy riches full: 25So is this great and spacious sea, wherein things creeping are, Which number’d cannot be; and beasts both great and small are there. 26There ships go; there thou mak’st to play that leviathan great. 27These all wait on thee, that thou may’st in due time give them meat. 28That which thou givest unto them they gather for their food; Thine hand thou open’st lib’rally, they filled are with good. 29Thou hid’st thy face; they troubled are, their breath thou tak’st away; Then do they die, and to their dust return again do they. 30Thy quick’ning spirit thou send’st forth, then they created be; And then the earth’s decayed face renewed is by thee. 31The glory of the mighty Lord continue shall for ever: The Lord Jehovah shall rejoice in all his works together. 32Earth, as affrighted, trembleth all, if he on it but look; And if the mountains he but touch, they presently do smoke. 33I will sing to the Lord most high, so long as I shall live; And while I being have I shall to my God praises give. 34Of him my meditation shall sweet thoughts to me afford; And as for me, I will rejoice in God, my only Lord. 35From earth let sinners be consum’d, let ill men no more be. O thou my soul, bless thou the Lord. Praise to the Lord give ye. Scripture: Psalm 104

Psalm 105: Give thanks to God, call on his name

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 23 hymnals First Line: Give thanks to God, call on his name Lyrics: 1Give thanks to God, call on his name; to men his deeds make known. 2Sing ye to him, sing psalms; proclaim his wondrous works each one. 3See that ye in his holy name to glory do accord; And let the heart of ev’ry one rejoice that seeks the Lord. 4The Lord Almighty, and his strength, with stedfast hearts seek ye: His blessed and his gracious face seek ye continually. 5Think on the works that he hath done, which admiration breed; His wonders, and the judgments all which from his mouth proceed; 6O ye that are of Abr’ham’s race, his servant well approv’n; And ye that Jacob’s children are, whom he chose for his own. 7Because he, and he only, is the mighty Lord our God; And his most righteous judgments are in all the earth abroad. 8His cov’nant he remember’d hath, that it may ever stand: To thousand generations the word he did command. 9Which covenant he firmly made with faithful Abraham, And unto Isaac, by his oath, he did renew the same: 10And unto Jacob, for a law, he made it firm and sure, A covenant to Israel, which ever should endure. 11He said, I’ll give Canaan’s land for heritage to you; 12While they were strangers there, and few, in number very few: 13While yet they went from land to land without a sure abode; And while through sundry kingdoms they did wander far abroad; 14Yet, notwithstanding suffer’d he no man to do them wrong: Yea, for their sakes, he did reprove kings, who were great and strong. 15Thus did he say, Touch ye not those that mine anointed be, Nor do the prophets any harm that do pertain to me. 16He call’d for famine on the land, he brake the staff of bread: 17But yet he sent a man before, by whom they should be fed; Ev’n Joseph, whom unnat’rally sell for a slave did they; 18Whose feet with fetters they did hurt, and he in irons lay; 19Until the time that his word came to give him liberty; The word and purpose of the Lord did him in prison try. 20Then sent the king, and did command that he enlarg’d should be: He that the people’s ruler was did send to set him free. 21A lord to rule his family he rais’d him, as most fit; To him of all that he possess’d he did the charge commit: 22That he might at his pleasure bind the princes of the land; And he might teach his senators wisdom to understand. 23The people then of Israel down into Egypt came; And Jacob also sojourned within the land of Ham. 24And he did greatly by his pow’r increase his people there; And stronger than their enemies they by his blessing were. 25Their heart he turned to envy his folk maliciously, With those that his own servants were to deal in subtilty. 26His servant Moses he did send, Aaron his chosen one. 27By these his signs and wonders great in Ham’s land were made known. 28Darkness he sent, and made it dark; his word they did obey. 29He turn’d their waters into blood, and he their fish did slay. 30The land in plenty brought forth frogs in chambers of their kings. 31His word all sorts of flies and lice in all their borders brings. 32He hail for rain, and flaming fire into their land he sent: 33And he their vines and fig-trees smote: trees of their coasts he rent. 34He spake, and caterpillars came, locusts did much abound; 35Which in their land all herbs consum’d, and all fruits of their ground. 36He smote all first-born in their land, chief of their strength each one. 37With gold and silver brought them forth, weak in their tribes were none. 38Egypt was glad when forth they went, their fear on them did light. 39He spread a cloud for covering, and fire to shine by night. 40They ask’d, and he brought quails: with bread of heav’n he filled them. 41He open’d rocks, floods gush’d, and ran in deserts like a stream. 42For on his holy promise he, and servant Abr’ham, thought. 43With joy his people, his elect with gladness, forth he brought. 44And unto them the pleasant lands he of the heathen gave; That of the people’s labour they inheritance might have. 45That they his statutes might observe according to his word; And that they might his laws obey. Give praise unto the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 105
