Lord, we have heard thy works of old

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.XLIV (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Church Hymn Book Lyrics: 1 Lord, we have heard thy works of old, Thy works of pow'r and grace, When to our ears our fathers told The wonder of their days. 2 They saw the beaut'ous churches rise, The spreading gospel run; While light and glory from the skies through all their temples shone. 3 In God they boasted all the day, And in a cheerful throng Did thousands meet to praise and pray, And grace was all their song. 4 But now our souls are seiz'd with shame, Confusion fills our face, To hear the enemy blaspheme, And fools reproach thy grace. 5 Yet have we not forgot our God, Nor falsely dealt with heav'n, Nor have our steps declin'd the road Of duty thou hast giv’n. 6 Though dragons all around us roar With their destructive breath, And thine own hand has bruis'd us sore Hard by the gates of death. 7 We are expos'd all day to die, As martyrs for thy name; As sheep for slaughter bound we lie, And wait the kindling flame. 8 Awake, arise, almighty Lord, Why sleeps Thy wonted grace? Why should we look like men abhor'd, Or banish'd from thy face? 9 Wilt thou for ever cast us off And still neglect our cries: For ever hide thine heav’nly love From our afflicted eyes? 10 Down to the dust our soul is bow'd, And dies upon the ground; Rise for our help, rebuke the proud, And all their pow'rs confound. 11 Redeem us from perpetual shame, Our Saviour and our God; We plead the honors of thy name, The merits of thy blood.
