Can Creatures To Perfection Find
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 64 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Can creatures to perfection find
Th’ eternal, uncreated Mind?
Or can the largest stretch of thought
Measure and search His nature out?
2 ’Tis high as Heav’n, ’tis deep as hell
And what can mortals know or tell?
His glory spreads beyond the sky,
And all the shining worlds on high.
3 But man, vain man, would fain be wise;
Born like a wild young colt, He flies
Through all the follies of His mind,
And swells, and snuffs the empty wind.
4 God is a king of power unknown,
Firm are the orders of His throne;
If He resolve, who dares oppose,
Or ask him why or what He does?
5 He wounds the heart, and He makes whole
He calms the tempest of the soul;
When He shuts up in long despair,
Who can remove the heavy bar?
6 He frowns, and darkness veils the moon;
The fainting sun grows dim at noon;
The pillars of Heav’n’s starry roof
Tremble and start at His reproof.
7 He gave the vaulted Heav’n its form,
The crooked serpent, and the worm;
He breaks the billows with His breath,
And smites the sons of pride to death.
8 These are a portion of His ways;
But who shall dare describe His face?
Who can endure His light, or stand
To hear the thunders of His hand? Used With Tune: LLEF Text Sources: Hymns and Spiritual Songs 1707-09, Book II

Bow Down Thine Ear, O Lord, and Hear
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Bow down thine ear, O Lord, and hear,
for I am poor and great my need;
preserve my soul, for thee I fear;
O God, thy trusting servant heed.
2 O Lord, be merciful to me,
for all the day to thee I cry;
rejoice thy servant, for to thee
I lift my soul, O Lord Most High.
3 For thou, O Lord, art good and kind,
and ready to forgive thou art;
abundant mercy they shall find
who call on thee with all their heart.
4 O Lord, incline thine ear to me,
my voice of supplication heed;
in trouble I will cry to thee,
for thou wilt answer when I plead.
5 There is no God but thee alone,
nor works like thine, O Lord Most High,
all nations shall surround thy throne
and their Creator glorify.
6 In all thy deeds how great thou art!
Thou one true God, thy way make clear;
teach me with undivided heart
to trust thy truth, thy name to fear.

Oh Merciful Creator, Hear Our Prayer
Author: Gregory I, 6th century; Drummond Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 1 hymnal First Line: Oh merciful Creator! Hear Lyrics: 1 Oh merciful Creator! Hear
Our prayer, to Thee devoutly bent,
Which we pour forth with many a tear
In this Thy holy fast of Lent!
2 Thou mildest searcher of the heart,
Who know’st the weakness of our strength,
To us forgiving grace impart,
That we may seek Thy face at length.
3 We all have sinned, we own our shame,
But spare us who our sins confess,
And for the glory of Thy name,
To our sick souls afford redress.
4 Grant that the flesh may be so pined,
By means of outward abstinence,
As that the sober watchful mind
May fast from spots of foul offense!
5 Grant this, O blessèd Trinity!
Pure Son of God! to this incline.
That of our fast the fruit may be
A grateful recompense for Thine! Used With Tune: LLEF Text Sources: Hymns Written and Adapted to the Weekly Service of the Church Year by Reginald Heber (London: J. Murray, 1827)
