O Let My Supplicating Cry

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: Occasional Services Ordination and/or Installation Lyrics: 1 O let my supplicating cry by you, my gracious LORD, be heard. Give wisdom and deliver me according to your faithful word. 2 Instructed in your holy law, to praise your word I lift my voice. Come, LORD, and be my present help, for your commandments are my choice. 3 For your salvation I have longed, my joy is in your law, O LORD. Now, let me live, your praise to sing; sustain me by your holy word. 4 Your servant, like a wandering sheep, has lost the path and gone astray. Restore my soul and lead me home, for your commands I would obey. Scripture: Psalm 119:167-176 Used With Tune: ST. CRISPIN Text Sources: Psalter, 1912

In love and truth you do fulfill the counsels of your sovereign will; though nations fail your power to own, yet you still reign, and you alone. 2 The idol gods of heathen lands are but the work of human hands; they cannot see, they cannot speak, their ears are deaf, their hands are weak; like them shall be all those who hold to gods of silver and of gold. 3 So let us trust in God alone, the Lord, whose grace and power are known; and our complete allegiance yield to God who is our help and shield. Join, heaven and earth, in sweet accord; sing "Hallelujah, praise the Lord!" Scripture: Psalm 115 Used With Tune: VATER UNSER Text Sources: Psalter, 1912, alt.
