The Cry of the Mortal

Hymnal: The Psalter #244 (1912) Topics: Old Age First Line: Lord, thro' all the generations Lyrics: 1 Lord, thro' all the generations Of the children of our race, In our fears and tribulations, Thou hast been our dwelling-place. Ere the vast and wide creation By Thy word was cased to be, Or the mountains held their station, Thou art God eternally. 2 Each succeeding generation At Thy mighty word appears; Thou dost count in time's duration One day as a thousand years. Death, with swift and sudden warning, Calls us from life's dream away, Like the grass, green in the morning, Withered ere the close of day. 3 In Thy wrath our spirits languish, Sinful 'neath Thy searching eye; All our days are passed in anguish, In Thy wrath we pine and id. Threescore years and ten we tarry, Fourscore years the strong may stay, Long the load of grief to carry, Till at last we fly away. 4 Who can weigh Thy just displeasure, Who can fear Thee as he ought? Teach us now our days to measure And to wisdom turn our thought. Lord, return, regard our sadness; with Thy servants now abide; Fill our days with joy and gladness, With Thy mercy satisfied. 5 Long the clouds of evil lower; Bless us now with gladsome days; Let Thy servants see Thy power, Let their children learn Thy praise. On us let the grace and beauty Of the Lord our God remain, Strengthen us for noble duty That our work be not in vain. Scripture: Psalm 90 Languages: English Tune Title: ARMSTRONG

Or virtue shield my heart? 3 Oh! no--then smooth, O Lord, the hour; On thee my hope depends: Support me with almighty pow'r, While dust to dust descend. 4 Then shall my soul, O gracious God!

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.184 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Old age and resurrection First Line: With rev'rence let the saints appear Lyrics: With rev'rence let the saints appear, And bow before the Lord; His high commands with rev'rence hear, And tremble at his word. How terrible thy glories be! How bright thine armies shine! Where is the power that vies with thee, Or truth compared to thine? The northern pole and southern rest On thy supporting hand; Darkness and day, from east to west, Move round at thy command. Thy words the raging winds control, And rule the boist'rous deep; Thou mak'st the sleeping billows roll, The rolling billows sleep. Heav'n, earth, and air, and sea, are thine, And the dark world of hell; How did thine arm in vengeance shine When Egypt durst rebel! Justice and judgment are thy throne, Yet wondrous is thy grace; While truth and mercy, joined in one, Invite us near thy face. Scripture: Psalm 89:7-52 Languages: English
