Psalm 107 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 128 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Give thanks to God; he reigns above Lyrics: Give thanks to God; he reigns above; Kind are his thoughts, his name is Love; His mercy ages past have known, And ages long to come shall own. Let the redeemed of the Lord The wonders of his grace record; Isr'el, the nation whom he chose, And rescued from their mighty foes. [When God's almighty arm had broke Their fetters and th' Egyptian yoke, They traced the desert, wand'ring round A wild and solitary ground. There they could find no leading road, Nor city for a fixed abode; Nor food, nor fountain, to assuage Their burning thirst or hunger's rage.] In their distress, to God they cried God was their Savior and their Guide; He led their march far wand'ring round, 'Twas the right path to Canaan's ground. Thus, when our first release we gain From sin's old yoke, and Satan's chain, We have this desert world to pass, A dangerous and a tiresome place. He feeds and clothes us all the way, He guides our footsteps lest we stray, He guards us with a powerful hand, And brings us to the heav'nly land. O let the saints with joy record The truth and goodness of the Lord! How great his works! how kind his ways! Let every tongue pronounce his praise.

Psalm 107 Part 4

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 75 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Thy works of glory, mighty Lord Lyrics: Thy works of glory, mighty Lord, Thy wonders in the deeps, The sons of courage shall record Who trade in floating ships. At thy command the winds arise, And swell the towering waves; The men astonished mount the skies, And sink in gaping graves. [Again they climb the wat'ry hills, And plunge in deeps again; Each like a tott'ring drunkard reels, And finds his courage vain. Frighted to hear the tempest roar, They pant with flutt'ring breath; And hopeless of the distant shore, Expect immediate death.] Then to the Lord they raise their cries; He bears the loud request, And orders silence through the skies, And lays the floods to rest. Sailors rejoice to lose their fears, And see the storm allayed: Now to their eyes the port appears; There let their vows be paid. 'Tis God that brings them safe to land; Let stupid mortals know That waves are under his command, And all the winds that blow. O that the sons of men would praise The goodness of the Lord! And those that see thy wondrous ways, Thy wondrous love record.

Psalm 107 Part 4

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 64 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Would you behold the works of God Lyrics: Would you behold the works of God, His wonders in the world abroad, Go with the mariners, and trace The unknown regions of the seas. They leave their native shores behind, And seize the favor of the wind; Till God command, and tempests rise That heave the ocean to the skies. Now to the heav'ns they mount amain, Now sink to dreadful deeps again; What strange affrights young sailors feel, And like a stagg'ring drunkard reel! When land is far, and death is nigh, Lost to all hope, to God they cry; His mercy hears the loud address, And sends salvation in distress. He bids the winds their wrath assuage, The furious waves forget their rage; 'Tis calm, and sailors smile to see The haven where they wished to be. O may the sons of men record The wondrous goodness of the Lord! Let them their private off'rings bring, And in the church his glory sing.

Psalm 107 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 41 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: From age to age exalt his name Lyrics: From age to age exalt his name; God and his grace are still the same; He fills the hungry soul with food, And feeds the poor with every good. But if their hearts rebel and rise Against the God that rules the skies; If they reject his heav'nly word, And slight the counsels of the Lord He'll bring their spirits to the ground, And no deliv'rer shall be found; Laden with grief, they waste their breath In darkness and the shades of death. Then to the Lord they raise their cries; He makes the dawning light arise, And scatters all that dismal shade That hung so heavy round their head. He cuts the bars of brass in two, And lets the smiling pris'ners through; Takes off the load of guilt and grief, And gives the lab'ring soul relief. O may the sons of men record The wondrous goodness of the Lord How great his works! how kind his ways! Let every tongue pronounce his praise.

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Vain man, on foolish pleasures bent Lyrics: Vain man, on foolish pleasures bent, Prepares for his own punishment; What pains, what loathsome maladies, From luxury and lust arise! The drunkard feels his vitals waste, Yet drowns his health to please his taste; Till all his active powers are lost, And fainting life draws near the dust. The glutton groans, and loathes to eat, His soul abhors delicious meat; Nature, with heavy loads oppressed, Would yield to death to be released. Then how the frighted sinners fly To God for help with earnest cry! He hears their groans, prolongs their breath, And saves them from approaching death. No med'cines could effect the cure So quick, so easy, or so sure; The deadly sentence God repeals, He sends his sovereign word, and heals. O may the sons of men record The wondrous goodness of the Lord! And let their thankful off'rings prove How they adore their Maker's love Topics: Providence in air, earth, and sea; Weather; Israel saved from Egypt, and brought to Canaan; Providence recorded; Church restored by prayer; Israel punished and pardoned; Saints conducted to heaven; Saints punished and pardoned; Colonies Planted; Deliverance from shipwreck; Drunkard and glutton; Glutton and drunkard; Intemperance and pardoned; Israel travels in the wilderness; Luxury pardoned; Mariner's psalm; Mercies recorded; Nation's blest and punished; New England psalm; Psalm for gluttons and drunkards; Psalm for mariners; Psalm for New England; Seamen's song; Shipwreck prevented

Psalm 107 Last Part

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 32 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: When God, provoked with daring crimes Lyrics: When God, provoked with daring crimes, Scourges the madness of the times, He turns their fields to barren sand, And dries the rivers from the land. His word can raise the springs again, And make the withered mountains green; Send showery blessings from the skies, And harvests in the desert rise. [Where nothing dwelt but beasts of prey, Or men as fierce and wild as they, He bids th' oppressed and poor repair, And builds them towns and cities there. They sow the fields, and trees they plant, Whose yearly fruit supplies their want; Their race grows up from fruitful stocks, Their wealth increases with their flocks. Thus they are blessed; but if they sin, He lets the heathen nations in; A savage crew invades their lands, Their princes die by barb'rous hands. Their captive sons, exposed to scorn, Wander unpitied and forlorn; The country lies unfenced, untilled, And desolation spreads the field. Yet if the humbled nation mourns, Again his dreadful hand he turns; Again he makes their cities thrive, And bids the dying churches live.] The righteous, with a joyful sense, Admire the works of Providence; And tongues of atheists shall no more Blaspheme the God that saints adore. How few with pious care record These wondrous dealings of the Lord! But wise observers still shall find The Lord is holy, just, and kind.

Eternal wisdom is their guide, Their help omnipotence. 2 In foreign realms, and lands remote, Supported by thy care, Through burning climes they pass unhurt, And breathe in tainted air. 3 When by the dreadful tempest borne High on the broken wave, They know thou art not slow to hear, Nor impotent to save. 4 The storm is laid, the winds retire, Obedient to thy will; The sea that roars at thy command, At thy command is still. 5 In midst of dangers, fears, and deaths, Thy goodness we'll adore; We'll praise thee for thy mercies past, And humbly hope for more. 6 Our life, while thou preservest that life, Thy sacrifice shall be; And death, when death shall be out lot, Shall join our souls to thee.

To God your grateful Voices raise

Appears in 8 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 Lyrics: 1 To God your grateful Voices raise, Who does your daily Patron prove: And let your never-ceasing Praise Attend on his eternal Love. 2,3 Let those give Thanks whom he from Bands Of proud oppressing foes releas'd; And brought them back from distant lands, From North and South, and West and East. 4,5 Through lonely desart Ways they went, Nor cou'd a peopled City find; 'Till quite with Thirst and Hunger spent, Their fainting soul within them pin'd. 6 Then soon to God's indulgent Ear Did they their mournful Cry address; Who graciously vouchsaf'd to hear, And freed them from their deep Distress. 7 From crooked Paths he led them forth, And in the certain Way did guide, To wealthy Towns of great Resort, Where all their Wants were well supply'd. 8 O then that all the Earth, with me, Would God for this his Goodness praise! And for the mighty works which he Throughout the wond'ring World displays! 9 For he from Heav'n the sad Estate Of longing souls with Pity views; To hungry souls that pant for Meat, His Goodness daily Food renews. Part II 10 Some lie, with Darkness compass'd round, In Death's uncomfortable shade; And with unweildy Fetters bound, By pressing Cares more heavy made. 11,12 Because God's Counsel they defy'd, And lightly priz'd his holy word, With these Afflictions they were try'd: They fell, and none could Help afford. 13 Then soon to God's indulgent Ear Did they their mournful Cry address; Who graciously vouchsaf'd to hear, And freed them from their deep Distress. 14 From dismal Dungeons, dark as Night. And Shades as black as Death's Abode, He brought them forth to chearful Light, And welcome Liberty bestow'd. 15 O then that all the Earth, with me, Would God for this his Goodness praise! And for the mighty works which he Throughout the wond'ring World displays! 16 For he with his almighty Hand, The Gates of Brass in Pieces broke; Nor cou'd the massy Bars withstand, Or temper'd Steel resist his Stroke. Part III 17 Remorseless Wretches, void of Sense, With bold Transgressions God defy; And for their multiply'd Offence, Oppress'd with sore Diseases lie: 18 Their soul, a Prey to Pain and Fear, Abhors to taste the choicest Meats; And they by faint Degrees draw near To Death's inhospitable Gates. 19 Then straight to God's indulgent Ear, Do they their mournful Cry address; Who graciously vouchsafes to hear, And frees them from their deep Distress. 20 He all their sad Distempers heals, His Word both Health and Safety gives; And when all human Succour fails, From near Destruction them retrieves. 21 O then that all the Earth, with me would God for this his Goodness praise! And for the mighty Works which he Throughout the wond'ring World displays! 22 With Off'rings let his Altar flame, Whilst they their grateful Thanks express, And with loud Joy his holy Name for all his Acts of Wonder bless? Part IV 23,24 They that in Ships, with Courage bold, O'er swelling Waves their Trade pursue, Do God's amazing works behold, And in the Deep his Wonders view. 25 No sooner his Command is past, But forth the dreadful Tempest flies, Which sweeps the Sea with rapid Haste, And makes the stormy Billows rise. 26 Sometimes the Ships, toss'd up to heav'n, On tops of mountain Waves appear; Then down the steep Abyss are driv'n, Whilst ev'ry soul dissolves with Fear. 27 They reel and stagger to and fro, Like Men with fumes of Wine oppress'd; Nor do the skilful Seamen know Which Way to steer, what Course is best. 28 Then straight to God's indulgent Ear They do their mournful Cry address; Who graciously vouchsafes to hear, And frees them from their deep Distress. 29,30 He does the raging Storm appease, And makes the Billows calm and still; With Joy they see their Fury cease, And their intended Course fulfil. 31 O then that all the Earth, with me, Would God for this his Goodness praise! And for the mighty Works which he Throughout the wond'ring world displays! 32 Let them, where all the Tribes resort, Advance to Heav'n his glorious Name, And in the Elders sov'reign Court With one Consent his Praise proclaim! Part V 33,34 A fruitful Land, where Streams abound, God's just Revenge, if People sin, Will turn to dry and barren Ground, To punish those that dwell therein. 35,36 The parch'd and desart Heath he makes To flow with Streams and springing Wells, Which for his Lot the Hungry takes, And in strong Cities safely dwells. 37,38 he sows the Field, the Vineyard plants, which gratefully his Toil repay; Nor can, whilst God his Blessing grants, His fruitful Seed or Stock decay. 29 But when his Sins Heav'n's Wrath provoke, His Health and Substance fade away; He feels th' Oppressor's gauling Yoke, And is of Grief the wretched Prey. 40 The prince that slights what God commands, Expos'd to Scorn, must quit his Throne; And over wild and desart lands, Where no path offers, stray alone. 41 Whilst God, from all afflicting Cares, Sets up the humble Man on high; And makes in time his num'rous Heirs With his increasing Flocks to vie. 42,43 Then Sinners shall have nought to say, The Just a decent Joy shall show; The Wise these strange Events shall weigh, And thence God's Goodness fully know.

They strayed in desert's pathless way, No city found for rest. 3 Their weary soul within them faints when thirst and hunger press; in trouble then they cried to God, he saved them from distress. 4 He made the way before them straight, himself became their guide, that they might to a city go wherein they might abide. 5 O that men would Jehovah praise for all his kindness shown, and for his works so wonderful which he to men makes known! 6 Because the longing soul by him with food is satisfied, the hungry soul that looks to him with goodness is supplied.

When most secure, the coming hour, If thou see fit, may blast them all. 4 When lowest sunk with grief and shame, Fill'd with affliction's bitter cup, Lost to relations, friends, and fame, Thy pow'rful hand can raise us up. 5 Thy powerful consolations cheer, Thy smiles suppress the deep-fetch'd sigh, Thy hand can dry the trickling tear That secret wets the widow's eye. 6 All things on earth, and all in Heaven On thy eternal will depend; And all for greater good were given, And all shall in thy glory end. 7 This be my care; to all beside Indifferent let my wishes be; "Passion be calm; and dumb be pride, "And fix'd, O God, my soul on thee."

Psalm 107: Praise God, for he is good: for still

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Praise God, for he is good: for still Lyrics: 1Praise God, for he is good: for still his mercies lasting be. 2Let God’s redeem’d say so, whom he from th’ en’my’s hand did free; 3And gather’d them out of the lands, from north, south, east, and west. 4They stray’d in desert’s pathless way, no city found to rest. 5For thirst and hunger in them faints 6their soul. When straits them press, They cry unto the Lord, and he them frees from their distress. 7Them also in a way to walk that right is he did guide, That they might to a city go, wherein they might abide. 8O that men to the Lord would give praise for his goodness then, And for his works of wonder done unto the sons of men! 9For he the soul that longing is doth fully satisfy; With goodness he the hungry soul doth fill abundantly. 10Such as shut up in darkness deep, and in death’s shade abide, Whom strongly hath affliction bound, and irons fast have ty’d: 11Because against the words of God they wrought rebelliously, And they the counsel did contemn of him that is most High: 12Their heart he did bring down with grief, they fell, no help could have. 13In trouble then they cry’d to God, he them from straits did save. 14He out of darkness did them bring, and from death’s shade them take; These bands, wherewith they had been bound, asunder quite he brake. 15O that men to the Lord would give praise for his goodness then, And for his works of wonder done unto the sons of men! 16Because the mighty gates of brass in pieces he did tear, By him in sunder also cut the bars of iron were. 17Fools, for their sin, and their offence, do sore affliction bear; 18All kind of meat their soul abhors; they to death’s gates draw near. 19In grief they cry to God; he saves them from their miseries. 20He sends his word, them heals, and them from their destructions frees. 21O that men to the Lord would give praise for his goodness then, And for his works of wonder done unto the sons of men! 22And let them sacrifice to him off ‘rings of thankfulness; And let them shew abroad his works in songs of joyfulness. 23Who go to sea in ships, and in great waters trading be, 24Within the deep these men God’s works and his great wonders see. 25For he commands, and forth in haste the stormy tempest flies, Which makes the sea with rolling waves aloft to swell and rise. 26They mount to heav’n, then to the depths they do go down again; Their soul doth faint and melt away with trouble and with pain. 27They reel and stagger like one drunk, at their wit’s end they be: 28Then they to God in trouble cry, who them from straits doth free. 29The storm is chang’d into a calm at his command and will; So that the waves, which rag’d before, now quiet are and still. 30Then are they glad, because at rest and quiet now they be: So to the haven he them brings, which they desir’d to see. 31O that men to the Lord would give praise for his goodness then, And for his works of wonder done unto the sons of men! 32Among the people gathered let them exalt his name; Among assembled elders spread his most renowned fame. 33He to dry land turns water-springs, and floods to wilderness; 34For sins of those that dwell therein, fat land to barrenness. 35The burnt and parched wilderness to water-pools he brings; The ground that was dry’d up before he turns to water-springs: 36And there, for dwelling, he a place doth to the hungry give, That they a city may prepare commodiously to live. 37There sow they fields, and vineyards plant, to yield fruits of increase. 38His blessing makes them multiply, lets not their beasts decrease. 39Again they are diminished, and very low brought down, Through sorrow and affliction, and great oppression. 40He upon princes pours contempt, and causeth them to stray, And wander in a wilderness, wherein there is no way. 41Yet setteth he the poor on high from all his miseries, And he, much like unto a flock, doth make him families. 42They that are righteous shall rejoice, when they the same shall see; And, as ashamed, stop her mouth shall all iniquity. 43Whoso is wise, and will these things observe, and them record, Ev’n they shall understand the love and kindness of the Lord.

The Goodness of the LORD

Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: O to Jehovah give ye thanks Lyrics: [1 To Captives and Travellers.] 1 O To JEHOVAH give ye thanks, because most good is He, Because his mercy doth endure ev'n to eternity. 2 Let the redeemed of the LORD thus of his mercy say; Whom He hath from the hand of foes redeem'd and brought away. 3 From all the lands wherein they were dispersed and distress'd, Hath gather'd from the north, the sea, the east and from the west. 4 They wandred thro' the wilderness in an untrodden way; No habitable town they found, nor place wherein to stay. 5 With hunger were they famished, with thirst extremely dry; Their souls were in them overwhelm'd. and ready were to die. 6 But then they to JEHOVAH cry'd in their extreme distress; And He them set at liberty from all their anguishes. 7 For then along He led them in a right tho' trackless way, Glad to a town inhabited, where they might safely stay. 8 O that men would JEHOVAH praise for his great goodness then, And for his many wondrous works wrought for the sons of men. 9 For he the thirsty, longing soul refreshing satisfies: And He the hungry soul with good ev'n to the full supplies. [2 To Prisoners] 10 Such as shut up, in darkness dwell, and in death's shade abide; Who are in great affliction bound, and fast in irons ty'd. 11 Because against the words of God they did as rebels rise, And counsels of the highest One did daringly despise: 12 Therefore with slavish labour He their hearts brought wholly down: Under their burthens down they fell, and helper there was none. 13 But then they to JEHOVAH cry in their extreme distress; And He them sets at liberty, from all their anguishes. 14 He them out of their darkness brought, and from death's shade He took; And all the chains which bound them fast He all to pieces broke. 15 O that men would JEHOVAH praise for his great goodness then, And for his many wondrous works wrought for the sons of men. 16 For He hath into shivers broke the gates of solid brass, Asunder cut the iron bars, and let the pris'ners pass. [3 To the Sick] 17 Fools for their bold iniquities, and sins, afflicted are: 18 Their souls ail meat abhor, and they to gates of death draw near. 19 But then they to JEHOVAH cry in their extreme distress; And He them sets at liberty from all their anguishes. 20 He sent his word of sov'reign pow'r, and to them healing gave; And graciously deliver'd them from death and from the grave. 21 O that men would JEHOVAH praise for his great goodness then, And for his many wondrous works wrought for the sons of men. 22 And of their thanks the sacrifice let them with pleasure bring; And while his works they tell abroad, with gladness shout and sing. [4 To those who go to Sea] 23 All those who down into the seas in floating ships descend, And venture on the waters great their business to attend; 24 They there JEHOVAH's mighty works with waking eyes behold, And in the moving deeps they see his wonders manifold. 25 For He commands, and instantly the stormy winds arise, Which drive the swelling waves along, and raise them to the skies. 26 They mount to heav'n, and down they row! to dreadful depths again; Their souls quite faint and melt away with anxiousness and pain. 27 As drunkards stagger to and fro, they reel, with tempests toss'd; They are as men of sense bereft, and all their skill is lost, 28 But then they to JEHOVAH cry in their extreme distress, And He then brings them speedily from all their anguishes. 29 He turns the storm into a calm, at his almighty will; So that the raging waves thereof grow peaceable and still. 30 Then they rejoyce, because at rest they find themselves to be: So them He to the haven brings, which they had long'd to see. 31 O that men would JEHOVAH praise, for his great goodness then And for his many wondrous works, wrought for the sons of men. 32 In all the congregations great Him let them highly raise; And where th' assembled elders sit unite to spread his praise. [5 To Husbandmen] 33 He to a desart turns a land, where rivers did abound; And where the springs of water flow'd, into a thirsty ground. 34 A fruitful land to barrenness He turns because of sin, For the provoking wickedness of those who dwell therein. 35 Then He the barren wilderness with pools enriching fills, And turns the dry and thirsty land to springs and flowing rills. 36 And there for dwelling He a place does to the hungry give; Where they may social towns prepare, and pleasantly may live. 37 Where they may fruitful vineyards plant, and sow the fertile fields, And may receive the rich increase, which ev'ry harvest yields. 38 Yea He so greatly blesses them; He multiplies their race, And in his goodness suffers not their cattle to decrease. 39 And when they are diminished, and for their sins brought low. Beneath oppression, tyranny and grief are made to bow; 40 Then He on princes pours contempt, and causes them to stray, And wander in a wilderness wherein they find no way. 41 But He from deep affliction makes the poor on high to rise, And like to multiplying flocks He makes their families. 42 All this the righteous shall behold, and will rejoyce to view: But all, asham'd, shall stop their mouths, who wickedness will do. 43 Whoso is wise and will observe these things attentively, He shall the goodness of the LORD with pleasing wonder see.

Confitemini Dom.

Author: W. K. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Give thanks unto the Lord our God Lyrics: 1 Give thanks unto the Lord our God, for gracious is he: And that his mercy hath no end all mortall men may see. 2 Such as the Lord redeemed hath with thanks shall praise his Name! And shew how they from foes were freed and how he wrought the same. 3 He gathered them forth of the lands that lay so farre about: From East to West, from North to South his hand did find them out. 4 They wandered in the wildernesse, and strayed from the way: And found no city where to dwell, that serve might for their stay. 5 Whose thirst and hunger was so great in these desarts so void: That faintnesse did them so assault, and eke soules annoid. 6 Then did they cry in their distresse unto the Lord for aid: Who did remove their troublous state according as they praid. 7 And by the way which was most right he led them like a guide: That they might to a City go, and there also abide. 8 Let men therefore before the Lord confesse his kindnesse then: And shew the wonders that he doth before the sonnes of men. 9 For he their empty soul sustain'd whom thirst had made to faint: Their hungry souls with goodnesse fed, and did them eke acquaint. 10 Such as do dwell in darknesse deep, where they on death do wait, Fast bound to tast such troublous stormes as iron chaines do threat. The second Part. 11 for that against the Lords own words they fought so to did rebell: Esteeming light his counsels high, which do so farre excell. 12 But when he humbled them full low, then they fell down with grief: And none was found so much to help, whereby to get relief. 13 Then they did cry in their distresse unto the Lord for aid: Who did remove their troublous state according as they praid. 14 For he from darknes out them brought and from deaths dreadfull shade: Bursting with force the iron bands which them before did lade: 15 Let men therefore before the Lord confesse his kindnesse then: And shew the wonders that the doth, before the sonnes of men. 16 For he threw down the gates of brass and brake them with strong hand: The iron barres he smote in two nothing could him withstand. 17 The foolish folk great plagues do feele and cannot from them wend: But heap on more to those they have, because they do offend. 18 Their souls so much did loath all meat that none they could abide: Whereby death had them almost caught, as they full truly tri'd. 19 Then did they cry in their distresse unto the Lord for aid: Who did remove their troublous state, according as they praid. 20 For then he sent to them his word, which health did soon restore: And brought them from those dangers deep, wherein they were before. The third Part. 21 Let men therefore before the Lord confesse his kindnesse then: And shew the wonders that he doth before the sonnes of men. 22 And let them offer sacrifice with thanks, and also serve: And speake of all his wondrous works with glad and joyfull cheare. 23 Such as in ships and brittle barks unto the seas descend: Their merchandise through fearful flouds to compasse and to end. 24 Those men are forced to behold the Lords works what they be: And in the dangerous deep the same most marvellous they see. 25 For at his word the stormy wind ariseth in a rage: And stirreth up the surges so that nought can them asswage. 26 Then they are lifted up so high the clouds they seem to gaine: And plunging down the depth untill their soules consume with paine. 27 And like a drunkard to and fro now here, now there they reel: As men with feare of wit bereft, and had no sense to feel. 28 Then did they cry in their distresse, unto the Lord for aid: Who did remove their troublous state, according as they praid. 29 For with his word the Lord doth make the sturdy stormes to cease: So that the great waves from their rage, are brought to rest and peace. 30 Then are men glad when rest is come, which they so much did crave: And are by him in haven brought, which they so faine would have. The fourth Part: 31 Let men therefore before the Lord confesse his kindnesse then: And shew the wonders that he doth before the sonnes of men. 32 Let them in presence of the folk with praise extoll his Name: And where the Elders do convent, there let them do the same. 33 For running flouds to drie desarts he doth oft change and turn: And drieth up as it were dust the springing well and bourn. 34 A fruitfull land with pleasure deck'd full barren does he make When on their sinnes that dwell therein he does just vengeance take. 35 Againe the wildernesse full rude he maketh fruit to beare: With pleasant springs of water cleare, though none before were there. 36 Wherein such hungry soules are set, as he hath freely chuse: That they a City migh them build, to dwell in for their use. 37 That they may sow their pleasant land and vineyards also plant To yield them fruits of such increase. as none may seeme to want. 38 They multiply exceedingly, the Lord does blesse them so: Who doth also the bruit beasts make in number great to grow. 39 But when the faithfull are low brought by the oppressors stout: And minish do through many plagues that compasse them about. 40 Then doth he Princes bring to shame, which did them sore oppresse: And likewise caused them to erre within the wildernesse. 41 But yet the poore he raiseth up out of his troubles deep: And oft times doth their traine augment much like a flock of sheep. 42 The righteous shall behold this sight, and also much rejoyce: Whereas the wicked and perverse with griefe shall stop their voice. 43 But who is wise? that now full well he may these things record? For certainly such shall perceive the kindnesse of the Lord.
