Son of the Highest, Deign to Cast

Author: Odo of Cluny, 878-942; Edward Caswall Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1. Son of the Highest, deign to cast On us a pitying eye, Thou who repentant Magdalene Didst call to joys on high. 2. Thy long lost coin is stored at length In treasure house divine, The jewel from pollution cleansed Doth now the stars outshine. 3. Jesu, the balm of every wound, The sinner’s only stay, Grant us, like Magdalene, to weep In this Thy mercy’s day. 4. Absolve us by Thy gracious Word, Fulfill us with Thy love, And guide us through the storms of life To perfect rest above. 5. All praise, all glory be to Thee, O everlasting Lord, Whose mercy doth our souls forgive, Whose bounty doth reward. Used With Tune: ST. MARY MAGDALENE Text Sources: Translated by Edward Caswall & the compilers of Hymns Ancient and Modern

Do You, O Men, Speak Righteousness

Appears in 7 hymnals First Line: Do you, O men, speak rightsousness Lyrics: 1 Do you, O men, speak righteousness And upright judgment seek? No, in your hearts is wickedness, And in your hands deceit. 2 The wicked, from their earliest days, In sin are gone astray, With errant heart, in foolish pride, From wisdom turned away. 3 The God of vengeance will destroy The wicked from His sight; The LORD will bring to nought their pow'r, And scatter all their might. 4 The good shall triumph and rejoice, And this shall be confessed; On earth the God of justice reigns, And righteousness is blessed. Scripture: Psalm 58 Used With Tune: GRÄFENBERG Text Sources: The Psalter, 1912, alt. 1972

Save Me, O God

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals First Line: Save me, O God, because the floods Lyrics: 1. Save me, O God, because the floods Come in upon my soul; I sink in depths where none can stand; Deep waters, o’er me roll. 2. My constant calling wearies me, My throat is parched and dried, My eyes grow dim while for my God Still waiting I abide. 3. The foes who hate me unprovoked, Are strong and still increase, Though to disarm their enmity My right I yield for peace. 4. O God, my folly and my sin Thy holy eye can see; Yet save from shame, Lord God of hosts, Thy saints that wait on Thee. 5. Forbid, O God, our covenant God, That those who seek Thy face Should see Thy servant put to shame And share in my disgrace. 6. It is for Thee I am reproached, For Thee I suffer shame, Until my brethren know me not, And hated is my name. 7. It is my zeal for Thy abode That has consumed my life; Reproached by those reproaching Thee, I suffer in the strife. 8. I wept, with fasting bowed my soul, Yet that was made my shame; When I in sackcloth clothed myself, Their byword I became. 9. The men who sit within the gate With slander do me wrong, And they who linger at their cups Make me their jest and song.
