Psalm 78: Attend, my people, to my law

Hymnal: Scottish Psalter and Paraphrases #P84 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Attend, my people, to my law Lyrics: 1Attend, my people, to my law; thereto give thou an ear; The words that from my mouth proceed attentively do hear. 2My mouth shall speak a parable, and sayings dark of old; 3The same which we have heard and known, and us our fathers told. 4We also will them not conceal from their posterity; Them to the generation to come declare will we: The praises of the Lord our God, and his almighty strength, The wondrous works that he hath done, we will shew forth at length. 5His testimony and his law in Isr’el he did place, And charg’d our fathers it to show to their succeeding race; 6That so the race which was to come might well them learn and know; And sons unborn, who should arise, might to their sons them show: 7That they might set their hope in God, and suffer not to fall His mighty works out of their mind, but keep his precepts all: 8And might not, like their fathers, be a stiff rebellious race; A race not right in heart; with God whose sp’rit not stedfast was. 9The sons of Ephraim, who nor bows nor other arms did lack, When as the day of battle was, they faintly turned back. 10They brake God’s cov’nant, and refus’d in his commands to go; 11His works and wonders they forgot, which he to them did show. 12Things marvellous he brought to pass; their fathers them beheld Within the land of Egypt done, yea, ev’n in Zoan’s field. 13By him divided was the sea, he caus’d them through to pass; And made the waters so to stand, as like an heap it was. 14With cloud by day, with light of fire all night, he did them guide. 15In desert rocks he clave, and drink, as from great depths, supply’d. 16He from the rock brought streams, like floods made waters to run down. 17Yet sinning more, in desert they provok’d the Highest One. 18For in their heart they tempted God, and, speaking with mistrust, They greedily did meat require to satisfy their lust. 19Against the Lord himself they spake, and, murmuring, said thus, A table in the wilderness can God prepare for us? 20Behold, he smote the rock, and thence came streams and waters great; But can he give his people bread? and send them flesh to eat? 21The Lord did hear, and waxed wroth; so kindled was a flame ’Gainst Jacob, and ‘gainst Israel up indignation came. 22For they believ’d not God, nor trust in his salvation had; 23Though clouds above he did command, and heav’n’s doors open made, 24And manna rain’d on them, and gave them corn of heav’n to eat. 25Man angels’ food did eat; to them he to the full sent meat. 26And in the heaven he did cause an eastern wind to blow; And by his power he let out the southern wind to go. 27Then flesh as thick as dust he made to rain down them among; And feather’d fowls, like as the sand which li’th the shore along. 28At his command amidst their camp these show’rs of flesh down fell, All round about the tabernacles and tents where they did dwell. 29So they did eat abundantly, and had of meat their fill; For he did give to them what was their own desire and will. 30They from their lust had not estrang’d their heart and their desire; But while the meat was in their mouths, which they did so require, 31God’s wrath upon them came, and slew the fattest of them all; So that the choice of Israel, o’erthrown by death, did fall. 32Yet, notwithstanding of all this, they sinned still the more; And though he had great wonders wrought, believ’d him not therefore: 33Wherefore their days in vanity he did consume and waste; And by his wrath their wretched years away in trouble past. 34But when he slew them, then they did to seek him shew desire; Yea, they return’d, and after God right early did enquire. 35And that the Lord had been their Rock, they did remember then; Ev’n that the high almighty God had their Redeemer been. 36Yet with their mouth they flatter’d him, and spake but feignedly; And they unto the God of truth with their false tongues did lie. 37For though their words were good, their heart with him was not sincere; Unstedfast and perfidious they in his cov’nant were. 38But, full of pity, he forgave their sin, them did not slay; Nor stirr’d up all his wrath, but oft his anger turn’d away. 39For that they were but fading flesh to mind he did recall; A wind that passeth soon away, and not returns at all. 40How often did they him provoke within the wilderness! And in the desert did him grieve with their rebelliousness! 41Yea, turning back, they tempted God, and limits set upon Him, who in midst of Isr’el is the only Holy One. 42They did not call to mind his pow’r, nor yet the day when he Deliver’d them out of the hand of their fierce enemy; 43Nor how great signs in Egypt land he openly had wrought; What miracles in Zoan’s field his hand to pass had brought. 44How lakes and rivers ev’ry where he turned into blood; So that nor man nor beast could drink of standing lake or flood. 45He brought among them swarms of flies, which did them sore annoy; And divers kinds of filthy frogs he sent them to destroy. 46He to the caterpillar gave the fruits of all their soil; Their labours he deliver’d up unto the locusts’ spoil. 47Their vines with hail, their sycamores he with the frost did blast: 48Their beasts to hail he gave; their flocks hot thunderbolts did waste. 49Fierce burning wrath he on them cast, and indignation strong, And troubles sore, by sending forth ill angels them among. 50He to his wrath made way; their soul from death he did not save; But over to the pestilence the lives of them he gave. 51In Egypt land the first-born all he smote down ev’ry where; Among the tents of Ham, ev’n these chief of their strength that were. 52But his own people, like to sheep, thence to go forth he made; And he, amidst the wilderness, them, as a flock, did lead. 53And he them safely on did lead, so that they did not fear; Whereas their en’mies by the sea quite overwhelmed were. 54To borders of his sanctuary the Lord his people led, Ev’n to the mount which his right hand for them had purchased. 55The nations of Canaan, by his almighty hand, Before their face he did expel out of their native land; Which for inheritance to them by line he did divide, And made the tribes of Israel within their tents abide. 56Yet God most high they did provoke, and tempted ever still; And to observe his testimonies did not incline their will: 57But, like their fathers, turned back, and dealt unfaithfully: Aside they turned, like a bow that shoots deceitfully. 58For they to anger did provoke him with their places high; And with their graven images mov’d him to jealousy. 59When God heard this, he waxed wroth, and much loath’d Isr’el then: 60So Shiloh’s tent he left, the tent which he had plac’d with men. 61And he his strength delivered into captivity; He left his glory in the hand of his proud enemy. 62His people also he gave o’er unto the sword’s fierce rage: So sore his wrath inflamed was against his heritage. 63The fire consum’d their choice young men; their maids no marriage had; 64And when their priests fell by the sword, their wives no mourning made. 65But then the Lord arose, as one that doth from sleep awake; And like a giant that, by wine refresh’d, a shout doth make: 66Upon his en’mies’ hinder parts he made his stroke to fall; And so upon them he did put a shame perpetual. 67Moreover, he the tabernacle of Joseph did refuse; The mighty tribe of Ephraim he would in no wise chuse: 68But he did chuse Jehudah’s tribe to be the rest above; And of mount Sion he made choice, which he so much did love. 69And he his sanctuary built like to a palace high, Like to the earth which he did found to perpetuity. 70Of David, that his servant was, he also choice did make, And even from the folds of sheep was pleased him to take: 71From waiting on the ewes with young, he brought him forth to feed Israel, his inheritance, his people, Jacob’s seed. 72So after the integrity he of his heart them fed; And by the good skill of his hands them wisely governed.

Attend, My People, To My Law

Author: Thomas Sternhold Hymnal: The Cyber Hymnal #12674 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Attend, my people, to my law; Thereto give thou an ear; The words that from my mouth proceed Attentively do hear. 2 My mouth shall speak a parable, And sayings dark of old; The same which we have heard and known, Ev’n as our fathers told. 3 We will not from their children hide The wonders done by Thee; To generations yet to come These things declare will we. 4 The praises of the Lord our God, And His almighty strength, The wondrous works that He hath done, We will show forth at length. 5 His testimony and His law In Israel He did place, And charged our fathers it to show To their succeeding race; 6 That so the race which was to come These things might learn and know; And sons unborn, who should arise, Might to their sons them show: 7 That they might set their hope in God, And suffer not to fall His mighty works out of their mind, But keep His precepts all: 8 And might not, like their fathers, be A stiff rebellious race; A race not right in heart with God Whose spirit faithless was. 9 The sons of Ephraim, who nor bows Nor other arms did lack, When as the day of battle was, Yet faintly turnèd back. 10 They broke God’s covenant, and refused In His commands to go; His works and wonders they forgot, Which He to them did show. 11 Things marvelous He brought to pass; Their fathers them beheld Within the land of Egypt done, Yea, even Zoan’s field. 12 By Him divided was the sea, He led them through the flood; The waters on each side He raised, Till as a heap they stood. 13 With cloud by day, with light of fire All night He did them guide. In desert, rocks He cleft, and drink, As from great depths, supplied. 14 He also from the rock brought streams, Like floods made waters run. Yet, sinning more, in desert they Provoked the Highest One. 15 For in their heart they tempted God, And, speaking with mistrust, They greedily did meat require To satisfy their lust. 16 Against the Lord Himself they spake, And, murmuring, said thus, A table in the wilderness Can God prepare for us? 17 Behold, He smote the rock, and thence Came streams and waters great; But can He give His people bread? And send them flesh to eat? 18 Jehovah heard, His wrath arose: Then kindled was a flame On Jacob, and on Israel His indignation came. 19 For they believed not God, nor trust In His salvation had; Though clouds above He did command, And Heav’n’s doors open made, 20 And manna rained on them, and gave Them corn of Heav’n to eat. Man angels’ food did eat; to them He to the full sent meat. 21 He in the heaven also caused An eastern wind to blow; And by His power He let out The southern wind to go. 22 Then flesh He rained on them like dust Which cannot numbered be; And feathered fowls in numbers vast Like sands along the sea. 23 At His command, amid their camp The flesh in showers fell; On every side it fell about The tents where they did dwell. 24 So they did eat abundantly, And had of meat their fill; For He did give to them what was Their own desire and will. 25 They from their lust had not estranged Their heart and their desire; But while the meat was in their mouths, Which they did so require, 26 God’s wrath upon them came, and slew The fattest of them all; And so the choice of Israel, O’erthrown by death, did fall. 27 Yet after all the Lord had done They still went on in sin; Nor did believe, although His works So wonderful had been. 28 He therefore did in vanity Their days consume and waste; And by His wrath their wretched years Away in trouble passed. 29 But when He slew them, then they did To seek Him show desire; Yea, they returned, and after God Did earnestly enquire. 30 And that the Lord had been their Rock, They did remember then; And that the high almighty God Had their Redeemer been. 31 Yet with their mouth they flattered Him, And with their tongues they lied; Their heart was not sincere; they from His covenant turned aside. 32 But, full of pity, He forgave Their sin, nor did them slay; Nor stirred up all His wrath, but oft His anger turned away. 33 For that they were but fading flesh To mind He did recall; A wind that passeth soon away, And ne’er returns at all. 34 How often in the wilderness Did they provoke His wrath! How often grieved Him, as they marched Along their desert path! 35 Yea, turning back, they tempt the Lord, And and boldly limits place About the high and holy One— The God of Israel’s race. 36 And they remembered not His hand Nor yet the noted day When He redeemed them from the foe Who sought them for his prey. 37 Nor how great signs in Egypt land He openly had wrought; What miracles in Zoan’s field His hand to pass had brought. 38 How He their rivers and their lakes Turned everywhere to blood; That neither man nor beast could drink Of standing lake or flood. 39 Devouring flies, of divers sorts, The Lord among them brought; And swarms of frogs o’er all the land, Which great destruction wrought. 40 He to the caterpillar gave The fruits of all their soil; He gave the labors of their hands To be the locust’s spoil. 41 Their vines with hail, their sycamores He with the frost did blast: Their beasts to hail He gave; their flocks Hot thunderbolts did waste. 42 He cast upon them anger fierce; To burning wrath gave vent; In indignation troubled them By evil angels sent. 43 He did not spare their soul from death But for His wrath made way; And to the fearful pestilence He gave their life a prey. 44 And over Egypt’s land He smote Their first born, and their pride, Till everywhere in tents of Ham Their chief of strength had died. 45 But forth from these like sheep He brought His own, His chosen band, And led His people like a flock Across the desert land. 46 And on their journey He them led, Secure from every fear, But by the sea’s o’erwhelming waves Their enemies covered were. 47 To borders of His holy place The Lord His people brought, Ev’n to the mountain which for them His own right hand had bought. 48 The nations which in Canaan dwelt, He also by His hand, Before His people’s face, expelled Beyond their native land; 49 Which for inheritance to them By line He did divide, And made the tribes of Israel Within their tents abide. 50 But God most high they did provoke, They tempted Him again; His testimonies to observe Their will did not incline. 51 But, like their fathers, they turned back, In faithlessness and pride, And like a false, deceitful bow, They all were turned aside. 52 Because to anger they provoked The Lord with places high, And with their graven images Moved Him to jealousy. 53 When God heard this, He angry was, And much loathed Israel then: So Shiloh’s tent He left, the tent Which He had placed with men. 54 And He His strength delivered o’er To long captivity; He left His glory in the hand Of His proud enemy. 55 His people also to the sword In anger o’er He turned: Against His own inheritance His wrath so fiercely burned. 56 The fire consumed their choice young men; Their maids no marriage had; And when their priests fell by the sword, Their wives no mourning made. 57 But then the Lord arose, as one That doth from sleep awake; And like a giant that, by wine Refreshed, a shout doth make. 58 And on the backs of fleeing foes He caused His strokes to fall, And to reproach perpetual He put His enemies all. 59 Moreover, Joseph’s tent He spurned, Nor Ephraim’s tribe approved; But Judah’s tent Jehovah chose, The Zion Mount he loved. 60 And like the firm and lofty hills He built His holy place; Yea, strong as earth’s foundation fast, He gave it changeless base. 61 Of David as His servant then His sovereign choice did make, And him, from out the folds of sheep, The Lord was pleased to take. 62 From waiting on the suckling ewes, He brought him forth to feed His Israel, His inheritance, His people, Jacob’s seed. 63 So with integrity of heart He did them wisely feed; And with His skillfulness of hands He did them safely lead.

Attend, my people, to my law

Hymnal: The Irish Presbyterian Hymbook #P78 (2004) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Attend, my people, to my law; thereto give thou an ear; the words that from my mouth proceed attentively do hear. 2 My mouth shall speak a parable, and sayings dark of old; 3 the same which we have heard and known, and us our fathers told. 4 We also will them not conceal from their posterity; but to the race that is to come declare them faithfully. The praises of the Lord our God, and his almighty strength, the wondrous works that he hath done, we will show forth at length. 5 His testimony and his law in Israel he did place, and charged our fathers it to show to their succeeding race; 6 that so the race which was to come might well them learn and know; and sons unborn, who should arise, might to their sons them show: 7 That they might set their hope in God, and suffer not to fall his mighty works out of their mind, but keep his precepts all: 8 and might not, like their fathers, be a stiff rebellious race; a race not right in heart; with God whose spirit faithless was. 9 The sons of Ephraim nor bows nor other arms did lack; yet, when the day of battle came, faint-hearted they turned back. 10 They brake God’s covenant, and refused in his commands to go; 11 his works and wonders they forgot, which he to them did show. 12 Things marvellous he brought to pass; their fathers them beheld within the land of Egypt done, yea, even in Zoan’s field. 13 The sea asunder he did cleave, he led them through the deep; and made the waters stand on high, as though they were an heap. 14 With cloud by day, with light of fire all night, he did them guide. 15 He in the desert clave the rocks, and drink as floods supplied. 16 He from the rock brought streams, like floods made waters down to run. 17 yet sinned they still, in desert they provoked the Highest One. 18 For in their heart they tempted God, and, speaking with mistrust, they greedily did meat require to satisfy their lust. 19 Against the Lord himself they spake, and, murmuring, said thus, A table in the wilderness can God prepare for us? 20 Behold, he smote the rock, and streams forth gushed and waters wide: but can he give his people bread, and flesh for them provide? 21 The Lord did hear, and waxed wroth; so kindled was a flame ’gainst Jacob, and ‘gainst Israel up indignation came. 22 For they believed not God, nor trust in his salvation had; 23 though clouds above he did command, and heaven’s doors open made, 24 and manna rained on them, and gave them corn of heaven to eat. 25 Man angels’ food did eat; to them he to the full sent meat. 26 And in the heaven he did cause an eastern wind to blow; and by his power he did direct the southern wind to go. 27 Then flesh as thick as dust he made to rain down them among; And feathered fowls, like to the sand which lies the shore along. 28 At his command amidst their camp these showers of flesh down fell, all round about the tabernacles and tents where they did dwell. 29 So they did eat abundantly, and had of meat their fill; for he did give to them what was their own desire and will. 30 They from their lust had not estranged their heart and their desire; but while the meat was in their mouths, which they did so require, 31 God’s wrath upon them came, and slew the fattest of them all; so that the choice of Israel, o’erthrown by death, did fall. 32 Yet after all the Lord had done they still went on in sin; nor did believe, although his works so wonderful had been. 33 Wherefore their days in vanity he did consume and waste; and by his wrath their wretched years away in grief did haste. 34 But when he slew them, then they did to seek him shew desire; yea, they returned, and after God right early did enquire. 35 And thus the Lord had been their Rock, they did remember then; even that the high almighty God had their Redeemer been. 36 Yet with their mouth they flattered him, and with their tongues they lied; 37 their heart not steadfast was; they from his covenant turned aside. 38 But, full of pity, he forgave their sin, them did not slay, nor stirred up all his wrath, but oft his anger turned away. 39 For that they were but fading flesh to mind he did recall; a wind that passeth soon away, nor doth return at all. 40 How often did they him provoke within the wilderness! And in the desert did him grieve with their rebelliousness! 41 Yea, turning back, they tempted God, and limits they did place upon the High and Holy One, the God of Israel's race. 42 They did not call to mind his power, nor yet the day when he delivered them out of the hand of their fierce enemy; 43 When wonders he in Egypt wrought, and signs in Zoan’s field; 44 their rivers turned into blood; their streams no drink did yield. 45 He sent the fly which them devoured, the frog which did them spoil; 46 He gave the worm their increase all, the locust all their toil. 47 Their vines with hail, their sycamores he with the frost did blast: 48 hail on their beasts, hot thunderbolts upon their flocks, he cast. 49 Fierce anger he let loose on them, and indignation strong, distress and trouble, angels sent of evil them among. 50 He for his wrath made way; their soul from death he did not save; but over to the pestilence their life in judgment gave. 51 In Egypt he the first-born all did smite down everywhere; among the tents of Ham, even those chief of their strength that were. 52 But his own people, like to sheep, thence to go forth he made; and he, amidst the wilderness, them, as a flock, did lead. 53 And he in safety led them on, so that they did not fear; whereas their enemies by the sea quite overwhelmed were. 54 Unto his holy border then the Lord his people led, even to the mount which his right hand for them had purchased. 55 The nations which in Canaan dwelt, by his almighty hand before his people's face he drove out of their native land; Which for inheritance to them by line he did divide, and made the tribes of Israel within their tents abide. 56 Yet God most high they did provoke, and him they tempted still; his testimonies to observe did not incline their will; 57 But like their fathers turned back, and dealt unfaithfully: aside they turned, like a bow that shoots deceitfully. 58 For they to anger did provoke him with their places high; and with their graven images moved him to jealousy. 59 When God heard this, he waxed wroth, and much loathed Israel then: 60 so Shiloh’s tent he left, the tent which he had pitched with men. 61 And he his strength delivered into captivity; he left his glory in the hand of his proud enemy. 62 His people also he gave o’er unto the sword’s fierce rage: and hotly did his anger burn against his heritage. 63 The fire consumed their choice young men; their maids no marriage had; 64 and when their priests fell by the sword, their wives no mourning made. 65 But then the Lord arose, as one who from his sleep awakes; and like a strong man who from wine a shout of triumph makes. 66 Upon his enemies’ backs he made his heavy stroke to fall; to a perpetual reproach and shame he put them all. 67 Moreover, he the tabernacle of Joseph did refuse; the mighty tribe of Ephraim he would in no wise choose: 68 but he the tribe of Judah chose to be the rest above; and of mount Zion he made choice, which he so much did love. 69 He also like unto the heights did build his sanctuary, like to a palace high, Like to the earth which he did found to perpetuity. 70 Of David, that his servant was, he also choice did make, and even from the folds of sheep was pleased him to take: 71 From waiting on the ewes with young, he brought him forth to feed Israel, his inheritance, his people, Jacob’s seed. 72 And so in his integrity of heart he did them feed; and with a wise and skillful hand them prudently did lead.
