Psalm 85 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 103 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85:9-13 First Line: Salvation is for ever nigh Lyrics: Salvation is for ever nigh The souls that fear and trust the Lord And grace descending from on high Fresh hopes of glory shall afford. Mercy and truth on earth are met, Since Christ the Lord came down from heav'n; By his obedience so complete, Justice is pleased, and peace is giv'n. Now truth and honor shall abound, Religion dwell on earth again, And heav'nly influence bless the ground In our Redeemer's gentle reign. His righteousness is gone before To give us free access to God; Our wand'ring feet shall stray no more, But mark his steps and keep the road.

The Lord Will Come and Not Be Slow

Author: John Milton Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 98 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85:9-11 Lyrics: 1 The Lord will come and not be slow; his footsteps cannot err; before him righteousness shall go, his royal harbinger. Mercy and truth that long were missed, now joyfully are met; sweet peace and righteousness have kissed, and hand in hand is set. 2 Truth from the earth, like to a flower, shall bud and blossom fresh; and justice, from her heav'nly bower look down on mortal flesh. Rise, God, judge thou the earth in might; this wicked earth redress, for thou art he that shall by right the nations all possess. 3 The nations, all whom thou hast made, shall come and all shall frame to bow them low before thee, Lord, and glorify thy name. For great thou art, and wonders great by thy strong hand are done; thou in thy everlasting seat remainest God alone. Used With Tune: OLD 107TH

Psalm 85 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85:1-8 First Line: Lord, thou hast called thy grace to mind Lyrics: Lord, thou hast called thy grace to mind, Thou hast reversed our heavy doom; So God forgave when Isr'el sinned, And brought his wand'ring captives home. Thou hast begun to set us free, And made thy fiercest wrath abate; Now let our hearts be turned to thee, And thy salvation be complete. Revive our dying graces, Lord, And let thy saints in thee rejoice; Make known thy truth, fulfil thy word; We wait for praise to tune our voice. We wait to hear what God will say; He'll speak, and give his people peace; But let them run no more astray, Lest his returning wrath increase.

Psalm 85: O Lord, thou hast been favourable

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85 First Line: O Lord, thou hast been favourable Lyrics: 1O Lord, thou hast been favourable to thy beloved land: Jacob’s captivity thou hast recall’d with mighty hand. 2Thou pardoned thy people hast all their iniquities; Thou all their trespasses and sins hast cover’d from thine eyes. 3Thou took’st off all thine ire, and turn’dst from thy wrath’s furiousness. 4Turn us, God of our health, and cause thy wrath ‘gainst us to cease. 5Shall thy displeasure thus endure against us without end? Wilt thou to generations all thine anger forth extend? 6That in thee may thy people joy, wilt thou not us revive? 7Shew us thy mercy, Lord, to us do thy salvation give. 8I’ll hear what God the Lord will speak: to his folk he’ll speak peace, And to his saints; but let them not return to foolishness. 9To them that fear him surely near is his salvation; That glory in our land may have her habitation. 10Truth met with mercy, righteousness and peace kiss’d mutually: 11Truth springs from earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven high. 12Yea, what is good the Lord shall give; our land shall yield increase: 13Justice, to set us in his steps, shall go before his face.
