Psalm 143: Lord, hear my pray'r, attend my suits
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: Lord, hear my pray'r, attend my suits Lyrics:
1Lord, hear my pray’r, attend my suits;
and in thy faithfulness
Give thou an answer unto me,
and in thy righteousness.
2Thy servant also bring thou not
in judgment to be try’d:
Because no living man can be
in thy sight justify’d.
3For th’ en’my hath pursu’d my soul,
my life to ground down tread:
In darkness he hath made me dwell,
as who have long been dead.
4My sp’rit is therefore overwhelm’d
in me perplexedly;
Within me is my very heart
amazed wondrously.
5I call to mind the days of old,
to meditate I use
On all thy works; upon the deeds
I of thy hands do muse.
6My hands to thee I stretch; my soul
thirsts, as dry land, for thee.
7Haste, Lord, to hear, my spirit fails:
hide not thy face from me;
Lest like to them I do become
that go down to the dust.
8At morn let me thy kindness hear;
for in thee do I trust.
Teach me the way that I should walk:
I lift my soul to thee.
9Lord, free me from my foes; I flee
to thee to cover me.
10Because thou art my God, to do
thy will do me instruct:
Thy Sp’rit is good, me to the land
of uprightness conduct.
11Revive and quicken me, O Lord,
ev’n for thine own name’s sake;
And do thou, for thy righteousness,
my soul from trouble take.
12And of thy mercy slay my foes;
let all destroyed be
That do afflict my soul: for I
a servant am to thee.
Psalm 143: Lord, hear my pray'r, attend my suits
Psalm 143: Oh, hear my prayer, Lord
Meter: 6.6.6.6 Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: Oh, hear my prayer, Lord Lyrics:
1Oh, hear my prayer, Lord,
And unto my desire
To bow thine ear accord,
I humbly thee require;
And, in thy faithfulness,
Unto me answer make,
And, in thy righteousness,
Upon me pity take.
2In judgment enter not
With me thy servant poor;
For why, this well I wot,
No sinner can endure
The sight of thee, O God:
If thou his deeds shalt try,
He dare make none abode
Himself to justify.
3Behold, the cruel foe
Me persecutes with spite,
My soul to overthrow:
Yea, he my life down quite
Unto the ground hath smote,
And made me dwell full low
In darkness, as forgot,
Or men dead long ago.
4Therefore my sp’rit much vex’d,
O’erwhelm’d is me within;
My heart right sore perplex’d
And desolate hath been.
5Yet I do call to mind
What ancient days record,
Thy works of ev’ry kind
I think upon, O Lord.
6Lo, I do stretch my hands
To thee, my help alone;
For thou well understands
All my complaint and moan:
My thirsting soul desires,
And longeth after thee,
As thirsty ground requires
With rain refresh’d to be.
7Lord, let my pray’r prevail,
To answer it make speed;
For, lo, my sp’rit doth fail:
Hide not thy face in need;
Lest I be like to those
That do in darkness sit,
Or him that downward goes
Into the dreadful pit.
8Because I trust in thee,
O Lord, cause me to hear
Thy loving-kindness free,
When morning doth appear:
Cause me to know the way
Wherein my path should be;
For why, my soul on high
I do lift up to thee.
9From my fierce enemy
In safety do me guide,
Because I flee to thee,
Lord, that thou may’st me hide.
10My God alone art thou,
Teach me thy righteousness:
Thy Sp’rit’s good, lead me to
The land of uprightness.
11O Lord, for thy name’s sake,
Be pleas’d to quicken me;
And, for thy truth, forth take
My soul from misery.
12And of thy grace destroy
My foes, and put to shame
All who my soul annoy;
For I thy servant am.
Psalm 143: Oh, hear my prayer, Lord
Psalm 143
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 56 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: My righteous Judge, my gracious God Lyrics:
My righteous Judge, my gracious God,
Hear when I spread my hands abroad,
And cry for succor from thy throne;
O make thy truth and mercy known!
Let judgment not against me pass;
Behold, thy servant pleads thy grace:
Should justice call us to thy bar,
No man alive is guiltless there.
Look down in pity, Lord, and see
The mighty woes that burden me;
Down to the dust my life is brought,
Like one long buried and forgot.
I dwell in darkness and unseen,
My heart is desolate within
My thoughts in musing silence trace
The ancient wonders of thy grace.
Thence I derive a glimpse of hope
To bear my sinking spirits up;
I stretch my hands to God again,
And thirst like parched lands for rain
For thee I thirst, I pray, I mourn:
When will thy smiling face return?
Shall all my joys on earth remove?
And God for ever hide his love?
My God, thy long delay to save
Will sink thy pris'ner to the grave;
My heart grows faint, and dim mine eye;
Make haste to help before I die.
The night is witness to my tears,
Distressing pains, distressing fears;
O might I hear thy morning voice,
How would my wearied powers rejoice!
In thee I trust, to thee I sigh,
And lift my heavy soul on high;
For thee sit waiting all the day,
And wear the tiresome hours away.
Break off my fetters, Lord, and show
Which is the path my feet should go;
If snares and foes beset the road,
I flee to hide me near my God.
Teach me to do thy holy will,
And lead me to thy heav'nly hill;
Let the good Spirit of thy love
Conduct me to thy courts above.
Then shall my soul no more complain,
The tempter then shall rage in vain;
And flesh, that was my foe before,
Shall never vex my spirit more.

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 143 Lyrics: 1. Hear, Lord, my Pray'r, to my Request,
Let thy kind Ear attend;
And in thy Truth, and Righteousness,
A gracious Answer send.
2. Let not thy Servant, by strict Rules,
Of Justice, Lord, be try'd;
For in thy Sight, no Man alive,
Could so be justify'd.
3. The Foe pursu'd my Soul, my Life
Down to the Ground did tread,
In Darkness made to dwell, as those
That Ages have been dead.
4. Therefore my Spirit sinks in me;
My Heart is desolate.
5. Past Times I call to Mind, and on
Thy, Works I meditate.
6. With out stretch'd Hand, thine Aid I crave;
For Thee my Soul doth pant,
As thirsty Lands, in Summer's Heat,
That cooling Showers want.
Second Part
7. Hear me with Speed, hide not thy Face,
My sinking Spirit save;
Lest I should soon become like them,
That lye down in the Grave.
8. Let me thy Kindness early hear,
For I in Thee confide;
Shew me the Way where I should go:
I look to Thee, my Guide.
9. From all my threat'ning Enemies,
O Lord deliver me;
For Shelter, from their Rage, I fly,
To hide myself with Thee.
10. Thou art my God, teach me thy Will
Forever to obey;
Let thy good Spirit me conduct,
In thy most righteous Way.
11. Revive me, Lord, and spare my Life.
That all thy Name may sing;
For th' Honour of thy faithful Word,
My Soul from Trouble bring.
12. In Mercy to me, rout my Foes,
Thy gracious Aids afford,
Destroy all that afflict my Soul;
For I'm thy Servant Lord.
Hear, Lord, my Pray'r, to my Request
A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: Lord, hear my humble prayer to thee Lyrics: 1 LORD, hear my humble pray'r to Thee,
and to my cries attend;
And in thy truth and righteousness
a gracious answer send.
2 O with thy servant enter not
in judgment me to try;
For in thy sight no man alive,
himself can justify.
3 The foe pursues my soul, my life
down to the ground doth tread,
In darkness makes me dwell as those
that ages have been dead.
4 Therefore my soul is overwhelm'd
with great perplexity;
My heart, of joy and comfort is
made desolate in me.
5 I call'd to mind the days of old,
on all thy works I thought;
I meditated on the deeds
thy mighty hands have wrought.
6 And now I earnestly to Thee
reach mine out-stretched hands;
My soul for Thee with ardour longs,
like dry and thirsty lands.
[2 Part]
7 LORD hear with speed, my spirit fails:
hide not thy face from me;
Lest I like those who in the grave
descend, should quickly be.
8 Let me thy kindness early hear;
in Thee my hope I place:
Shew me the way wherein to go;
my soul to Thee I raise.
9 JEHOVAH, from mine enemies
quickly deliver me:
To hide me safe beneath thy wings
in haste I fly to Thee.
10 Teach me to do thy will, because
Thou art my GOD indeed:
Let thy good spirit to the land
of uprightness me lead.
11 Yea for the sake of thy great name,
O LORD, revive Thou me;
And in thy righteousness do Thou
my soul from trouble free.
12 Yea, in thy mercy Thou my foes,
wilt quite suppress; and them
Thou wilt destroy who vex my soul,
for I thy servant am.
A Psalm of David
Lord, hear my Pray'r, and to my Cry
Appears in 14 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear my Pray'r, and to my Cry
thy wonted Audience lend;
In thy accustom'd Faith and Truth
a gracious Answer send.
2 Nor at thy strict Tribunal bring
thy Servant to be try'd;
For in thy Sight no living Man
can e'er be justify'd.
3 The spiteful Foe pursues my Life,
whose Comforts all are fled;
He drives me into Caves as dark
as Mansions of the Dead.
4 My Spirit therefore is o'erwhelm'd,
and sinks within my Brest;
My mournful Heart grows desolate,
with heavy Woes opprest.
5 I call to mind the Days of old,
and Wonders thou hast wrought:
My former Dangers and Escapes
employ my musing Thought.
6 To thee my Hands in humble prayer
I fervently stretch out;
My Soul for thy Refreshment thirsts,
like Land opprest with Drought.
7 Hear me with Speed, my Spirit fails;
thy Face no longer hide,
Lest I become forlorn, like them
that in the Grave reside.
8 Thy Kindness early let me hear,
whose Trust on thee depends;
Teach me the Way where I should go:
my soul to thee ascends.
9 Do thou, O Lord, from all my Foes
preserve, and set me free;
A safe Retreat against their Rage,
my Soul implores from Thee.
10 Thou art my God, thy righteous Will
instruct me to obey;
Let thy good Spirit lead and keep
my Soul in thy right Way.
11 O for the sake of thy great Name
revive my drooping Heart:
For thy Truth's Sake to me distress'd,
thy promis'd Aid impart.
12 In Pity to my Suff'rings, Lord,
reduce my Foes to Shame;
Slay them that persecute a Soul
devoted to thy Name.

Thy wonted Audience lend;
In thy accustom'd Faith and Truth,
A gracious Answer send,
Nor to thy Justice bring
Thy servant strictly to be try'd;
For no frail mortal Man
Can in thy Sight be justify'd,
2 The spiteful Foe pursues my Life,
Whose Comforts all are fled;
He drives me into Caves as dark
As Mansions of the Dead.
My Spirit is o'erwhelm'd,
And therefore sinks within my Breast;
My Heart grows desolate,
With heavy Woes too much oppress'd.
3 I call to mind the Days of old,
And Wonders thou hast wrought,
My former Dangers and Escapes
Employ my musing Thought.
To thee my in humble Pray'r,
My Hands I fervently stretch out;
My Soul for Comfort thirsts,
Like Land oppress'd with constant Drought.
4 Hear me with Speed, my Spirit fails,
Thy Face no longer hide;
Lest I become forlorn, like them
That in the Grave reside.
Thy Kindness let me hear,
Whose Trust on thee alone depends;
Teach me thy perfect Way,
For still my Soul to thee ascends.
5 Do thou, O LORD, from all my Foes,
Preserve, and set me free;
A safe Retreat against their Rage,
My Soul implores from thee.
Thy righteous Will, O GOD,
Instruct me ever to obey;
Let thy good Spirit lead
And keep my Soul in thy right Way.
6 Oh, for the sake of thy great Name,
Revive my drooping Heart:
For thy Truth's sake, to me distress'd,
Thy promis'd Aid impart.
In Pity to my Grief,
Do thou reduce my Foes to shame;
Slay them that vex my Soul,
Devoted to thy holy Name. Topics: Prayers Of a Sinner to obtain Forgiveness of Sins; Prayers When surrounded by Enemies; Prophecies Prophetical Curses against the Enemies and Persecutors of the Chruch Used With Tune: [Lord, hear my Pray'r, and to my Cry]

A Psalm of David
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: Lord, hear my prayer, give ear Lyrics: 1 Lord hear my pray'r, give ear when I
Do humbly call on thee;
Both in thy truth and righteousness
Make answer unto me.
2 And into judgment enter not
With him who serveth thee:
For in thy sight no man that lives
Shall justified be.
3 For th' enemy pursu'd my soul,
My life to ground hath thrown;
And made me dwell i'th' dark like them
Who dead are long agone.
4 Therefore my soul is overwhelm'd
With great perplexity.
My heart also within me is
Made desolate to be.
5 I call'd to mind the days of old,
I meditation use:
On all thy works, thy handy work,
I seriously do muse.
6 Moreover I do unto thee
Reach mine out-stretched hands:
So after thee my soul doth thirst,
As to the thirsty lands.
[2]
7 Haste Lord, hear me, my soul doth fail
Hide not thy face me fro;
Lest I become like unto them
Who down to pit do go.
8 Let me thy mercy early hear,
For I upon thee stay :
Wherein that I should walk, cause me
To understand the way.
For I to thee lift up my soul.
9 O Lord, deliver me,
From them who be my foes; I fly
To hide my self with thee.
10 Thou art my God, thy spirit good.
Teach me thy will to do:
Into the land of uprightness
Conduct thou me alfso:
11 Jehovah me O quicken thou,
Ev'n for thine own names sake;
And for thy righteousness my soul
From out of trouble take.
12 Thou shalt cut off mine enemies
In thy benignity.
And those destroy that vex my soul
For servant thine am I.

Turn ye to me, thus saith the Lord

Ye who have gone astray--
Your cries and mournings shall be heard,
And not be cast away.

By fasting and with pray'r;
Rend not your garments, but your heart,
And for my grace prepare.

When ye return to me:
Your ear'nest pray'rs are not in vain,
Nor never more shall be.
4 The Lord is gracious, good and kind,
To those who seek his face!
With a sincere and humble mind,
Shall find his pard'ning grace.
5 Our horrid crimes, how have they swell'd;
Our Heaven they are grow'n!
God's threat'nings are at last fulfill'd,
And bring his Judgements down.
6 Well, we deserve to feel the rod;
Our punishments are due;
But O! we have a gracious God,
Who will forgive them too.

And bow beneath his throne;
Confess with sorrow, and regret
The follies we have done. Topics: Ash-Wednesday
