To Thee, Great God, I Make My Prayer
Author: William Wrangham Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 12 hymnals Lyrics: 1 To Thee, great God, I make my prayer;
Do Thou my supplications hear;
Let me not sink, o’erwhelmed in grief,
But kindly send my soul relief.
2 O let me now Thy goodness prove,
Thy tender mercies, and Thy love;
Turn not away, O Lord, Thy face,
But hear, and heal me with Thy grace.
3 So shall my song to Thee arise,
Thy praise shall echo through the skies;
Through all the earth will I proclaim
The greatness of Jehovah’s name. Used With Tune: MINAL

My Wakened Soul, Extend Thy Wings
Author: Philip Doddridge, 1702-1751 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 17 hymnals Lyrics: 1 My wakened soul, extend thy wings,
Beyond the verge of mortal things;
See this vain world in smoke decay,
And rocks and mountains melt away.
2 Behold the fiery deluge roll,
Through heaven’s wide arch, from pole to pole;
Pale sun, no more thy luster boast:
Tremble and fall, ye starry host.
3 This wreck of nature all around—
The angels’ shout, the trumpet’s sound,
Loud the descending Judge proclaim,
And echo His tremendous name.
4 Children of Adam, all appear
With reverence round His awful bar;
For, as His lips pronounce, ye go,
To endless bliss, or endless woe!
5 Lord, to my eyes this scene display
Frequent through each returning day;
And let Thy grace my soul prepare
To meet its full redemption there! Used With Tune: MINAL Text Sources: Published posthumously in Hymns Founded on Various Texts in the Holy Scriptures, by Job Orton (Shropshire, England: Joshua Eddowes & John Cotton, 1755)
