Psalm 116 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 195 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116 First Line: I love the Lord; he heard my cries Lyrics:
I love the Lord; he heard my cries,
And pitied every groan;
Long as I live, when troubles rise,
I'll hasten to his throne.
I love the Lord; he bowed his ear,
And chased my griefs away;
O let my heart no more despair,
While I have breath to pray!
My flesh declined, my spirits fell,
And I drew near the dead;
While inward pangs and fears of hell
Perplexed my wakeful head.
"My God," I cried, "thy servant save,
"Thou ever good and just;
Thy power can rescue from the grave,
Thy power is all my trust."
The Lord beheld me sore distressed,
He bid my pains remove
Return, my soul, to God thy rest,
For thou hast known his love.
My God hath saved my soul from death,
And dried my falling tears;
Now to his praise I'll spend my breath,
And my remaining years.

Psalm 116: I love the Lord, because my voice
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116 First Line: I love the Lord, because my voice Lyrics:
1I love the Lord, because my voice
and prayers he did hear.
2I, while I live, will call on him,
who bow’d to me his ear.
3Of death the cords and sorrows did
about me compass round;
The pains of hell took hold on me,
I grief and trouble found.
4Upon the name of God the Lord
then did I call, and say,
Deliver thou my soul, O Lord,
I do thee humbly pray.
5God merciful and righteous is,
yea, gracious is our Lord.
6God saves the meek: I was brought low,
he did me help afford.
7O thou my soul, do thou return
unto thy quiet rest;
For largely, lo, the Lord to thee
his bounty hath exprest.
8For my distressed soul from death
deliver’d was by thee:
Thou didst my mourning eyes from tears,
my feet from falling, free.
9I in the land of those that live
will walk the Lord before.
10I did believe, therefore I spake:
I was afflicted sore.
11I said, when I was in my haste,
that all men liars be.
12What shall I render to the Lord
for all his gifts to me?
13I’ll of salvation take the cup,
on God’s name will I call:
14I’ll pay my vows now to the Lord
before his people all.
15Dear in God’s sight is his saints’ death.
16Thy servant, Lord, am I;
Thy servant sure, thine handmaid’s son:
my bands thou didst untie.
17Thank-off ‘rings I to thee will give,
and on God’s name will call.
18I’ll pay my vows now to the Lord
before his people all;
19Within the courts of God’s own house,
within the midst of thee,
O city of Jerusalem.
Praise to the Lord give ye.

My Soul, with grateful Thoughts of Love
Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116 Lyrics: 1 My Soul, with grateful Thoughts of Love
Entirely is possest
Because the Lord vouchsaf'd to hear
The Voice of my Request.
2 Since He has now his Ear inclin'd,
I never will despair;
But still in all the Straits of life
to Him address my Pray'r.
3 With deadly Sorrows compass'd round,
with Pains of hell oppress'd;
When Troubles seiz'd my aking Heart,
and Anguish rack'd my Breast:
4 On God's Almighty Name I call'd,
and thus to him I pray'd;
"Lord, I beseech thee, save my soul,
"with Sorrows quite dismay'd;
5,6 How just and merciful is God,
how gracious is the Lord!
Who saves the harmless, and to me
does timely Help afford.
7 Then free from pensive Cares, my Soul
resume thy wonted Rest;
For God has wond'rously to thee
his bounteous Love exprest.
8 When Death alarm'd me, he remov'd
my Dangers and my Fears;
My Feet from falling he secur'd,
and dry'd my Eyes from Tears.
9 Therefore my Life's remaining Years,
which God to me shall lend,
Will I in Praise to his Name,
and in his Service spend.
10,11 In God I trusted, and of him
in greatest Straits did boast;
(For in my Flight all Hopes of Aid
from faithless Men were lost:)
12,13 Then what Return to him shall I
for all his Goodness make?
I'll praise his Name, and with glad Zeal
the Cup of Blessing take.
14,15 I'll pay my Vows amongst his Saints,
whose Blood (how'er despis'd
By wicked Men) in God's Account
is always highly priz'd:
16 By various Ties, O Lord, must I
to thy Dominion bow;
Thy humble Handmaid's Son before,
thy ransom'd Captive now!
17,18 To Thee I'll Off'rings bring of Praise;
and whilst I bless thy Name,
The just Performance of my Vows
to all thy Saints proclaim.
19 They in Jerusalem shall meet,
and in thy House shall join,
To bless thy Name with one Consent,
and mix their Songs with mine.
My Soul, with grateful Thoughts of Love

And granted my request;
In Him Who hears and answers prayer
My trust thro' life shall rest.
2 With deadly sorrows compassed round,
My heart was full of grief;
Then to the Lord I made my prayer
That He would send relief.
3 The Lord is just and merciful,
And gracious to the meek;
He saved me when I cried to Him,
Tho' I was poor and weak.
4 Return unto thy rest, my soul,
No longer troubled be;
The Lord sustains thee, and has dealt
Most graciously with thee.
5 Before my Saviour I will live,
From death He saved my soul,
My eyes from tears, my feet from falls,
And He has made me whole.

That human help deceived,
But ever faithful was the Lord

Deliver thou my soul, O Lord,

To thee I offer will;

Will call upon it still.

The vows were made by me,
Now in the presence of them all
That his own people be.

I wo and sorrow found.
4 Upon the Name of God my Lord
then did I call and say:
Deliver thou my soul, O Lord,
I do thee humbly pray.
5 The Lord is very mercifull,
and just he is also:
And in our God compassion
doth plentifully show.
6 The Lord in safety doth preserve
all those that simple be
I was in wofull misery,
and he delivered me.
7 And now my soul sith thouart safe,
return unto thy rest:
For largely, lo, the Lord to thee
his bounty hath exprest.
8 Because thou hast delivered
my soul from deadly thrall:
My moistned eyes from mournfull teares,
my sliding feet from fall.
9 Before the Lord I in the land
of life will walk therefore:
10 I did believe therefore I spake,
for I was troubled sore.
The second Part:
11 I said in my distresse and feare,
that all men lyars be:
12 What shall I pay the Lord for all
his benefits to me?
13 The wholesome cup of saving health
I thankfully will take:
And on the Lord's Name I will call,
when I my prayers make.
14 I to the Lord will pay the vowes
that I to him behight:
Yet even at this present time,
in all his peoples sight.
15 Right deare and precious in his sight
the Lord doth aye esteem
The death of all his holy ones,
what ever men do deem.
16 Thy servant Lord, thy servant lo,
I do my selfe confesse,
Sonne of thy hand-maid, thou hast broke
the bonds of my distresse.
17 And I will offer up to thee
a sacrifice of praise:
And I will call upon the Name
of God the Lord alwaies.
18 I to the Lord will pay the vowes
that I have him behight:
Yea even at this present time,
in all his peoples sight.
19 Yea in the courts of Gods own house,
and in the midst of thee,
O thou Jerusalem, I say:
wherefore the Lord praise ye.

Author: Helen M. Williams Appears in 684 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 116:7 First Line: While thee I seek, protecting Power! Lyrics: 1 While thee I seek, protecting Power!
Be my vain wishes stilled;
And may this consecrated hour
With better hopes be filled;
Thy love the power of thought bestowed;
To thee my thoughts would soar:
Thy mercy o'er my life has flowed;
That mercy I adore.
2 In each event of life how clear
Thy ruling hand I see!
Each blessing to my soul more dear
Because conferred by thee,
In every joy that crowns my days,
In every pain I bear,
My heart shall find delight in praise
Or seek relief in prayer.
3 When gladness wings my favored hour,
Thy love my thoughts shall fill;
Resigned, when storms of sorrow lower,
My soul shall meet thy will.
My lifted eye, without a tear,
The gathering storm shall see;
My steadfast heart shall know no fear;
That heart will rest on thee. Topics: Dependence On Providence; God: The Father Used With Tune: BRATTLE STREET
