A Psalm and song at the Dedication of the House of David

Hymnal: The Psalms, Hymns, and Spiritual Songs of the Old and New-Testament #PXXX (1742) First Line: Lord, I will thee extol on high Lyrics: 1 Lord, I will thee extol on high, For thou hast made me rise; And joyful hast not made to be O'er me mine enemies. 2 I Lord my God to thee cry'd have, And thou hast made me whole, 3 Jehovah thou out of the grave Hast raised up my soul. From pit's descent thou quicknedst me, 4 O sing unto the Lord, And ye his saints give thanks when ye His holiness record. 5 For's wrath doth but a while abide, Life in his love doth stay: If weeping lodge at ev'ning tide, Yet joy at break of day. 6 For in my prosp'rous state I said, Now shall I never slide, 7 Lord, by thy favour thou hast made My mountain fast abide 8 Thou hid'st thy face, I troubled was, Lord I to thee did cry; Also my humble suit for grace Unto the Lord made I. 9 What profit in my blood can be, When I to pit go down? Shall dust give glory unto thee? Shall it thy truth make known? 10 Do thou me, O Jehovah, hear, And on me mercy have: To me, Jehovah, be thou near, And helper me to save. 11 My mourning then a dance into For me thou turned hast: With joy thou didst me gird also, And off my sackcloth cast. 12 So shall my glory sing thy praise, And never silent be; Jehovah, O my God always I will give thanks to thee.
