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: 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

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.

Hear, Lord, my Pray'r, to my Request

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.

When the morning dawns, make known your love anew; show me how to walk, for I will trust in you. 4 Keep me safe, O God, and help me learn your will; let your Spirit lead through level pathways still. For your great Name’s sake, my griefs and fears dispel; free me from my foes, that I may serve you well.

O sov'reign Lord, my suppliant plainings hear

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 143 Lyrics: 1 O Sov'reign Lord, my suppliant plainings hear; Give to my mournful plea a list'ning ear; Thy wonted faith, thy wonted justice shew, And shield me, save me, from th' obdurate foe. 2 Yet not my life too strictly thou survey, Since none so perfectly thy laws obey, None o'er their passions hold so firm command, As pure, as guiltless, in thy fight to stand. 3 Lo! my fierce enemy assaults my soul; The victim of his villain-hate I fall. My dismal dwelling in the dark I have, Like them who long have moulder'd in the grave. 4 Therefore my soul was overwhelm'd with grief; My heart well nigh despair'd to ask relief: 5 Yet I remember'd still, (and still ador'd) That not in vain our ancestcrs implor'd Thy gracious mercy; when thy pitying hand Dispell'd their dangers, and their souls sustain'd. 6 This gives me courage to support my fate, With confidence thy mercy I intreat; For thee I long, as long the thirsty plains, Parch'd by the sultry heat, for kindly rains. 7 Then hear, all-clement God; swift aid impart, Droops my afflicted soul, and fails my heart: Shoud'st thou in anger turn thy face away, Soon death wou'd drive me from the realms of day. 8 In thee alone I hope, on thee rely; With gracious speed to my assistance fly; To thee my soul looks up, to only thee; Save her, my God, and give her liberty. 9 O shield her from the insults of her foes, For thee her fortress and her rock she chose. 10 Wise, good and just, art thou--direct my will, That I thy statutes ever may fulfil; That I no ear to error's lure may give, But in the paths of duty ever live. 11 And that the grateful tribes thy name may praise, Give me the blessings of my former days; And, that thy justice may to all appear, Relieve me from this burthen of my fear. 12 Thy servant I my griefs in mercy view, And let thy vengeance my fell foes pursue; Destroy them, that they not distress me more, And I'll that mercy gratefully adore.

Psalm CXLIII

Appears in 6 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 143 First Line: Hear, O my God, with pity hear Lyrics: I. Hear, O my God, with pity hear My humble supplicating moan; In mercy answer all my pray'r, And make thy truth and goodness known. II. And O let mercy still be nigh; Should awful justice frown severe, Before the terrors of thy eye, What trembling mortal can appear? III. My persecuting foes prevail, Almost I yield my struggling breath; The chearful rays of comfort fail, And sink me to the shades of death. IV. While thus oppressive sorrows flow, Unintermitting o'er my head; My inmost pow'rs are whelm'd in woe, And all my hopes and joys are fled. V. I call to mind the former days; Thy ancient works declare thy name, Thy truth, thy goodness, and thy grace; And these, O Lord, are still the same. VI. To thee, I stretch my suppliant hands, To thee my longing soul aspires; As chearing show'rs to thirsty lands, Come, Lord, and fill these strong desires. VII. Come, Lord, on wings of mercy fly, My spirit fails at thy delay; Hide not thy face; I faint, I die, Without thy blissful healing ray. VIII. Speak to my heart; the gloomy night Shall vanish, and sweet morning break; In thee I trust, my guide, my light; Teach me the way my feet should take. IX. My soul's desires ascend to thee, O save me from my num'rous foes; To thy kind-guardian wing I flee, For safe defence and sweet repose. X. Teach me to do thy sacred will; Thou art my God, my hope, my stay; Let thy good spirit lead me still, And point the safe, the upright way. XI. Thy name, thy righteousness I plead, O Lord, revive my drooping heart; Let these distressing fears recede, And bid my troubles all depart. XII. Those unrelenting foes destroy, Which thus against my peace combine; Then shall thy service be my joy, And all my active pow'rs be thine.

Por fe deseo andar, tu plenitude tomar, y en todo tiempo amar tu voluntad. 5 Cúmplase en mí, Señor, tu voluntad; confío en tu poder y gran bondad. Rindo mi ser a ti, que viva Cristo en mí; he de cumplir así tu voluntad. Amén.
