Praise waits in Sion, Lord, for thee

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P65c (1766) Topics: God his Being, Attributes and Providence Lyrics: 1 Praise waits in Sion, Lord, for thee; There shall our Vows be paid; Thou hast an Ear when Sinners pray, All Flesh shall seek thine Aid. 2 Lord, our Iniquities prevail, But pard'ning Grace is thine; And thou wilt grant us Pow'r and Skill To conquer every Sin. 3 Bless'd are the Men whom thou wilt chuse To bring them near thy Face, Give them a Dwelling in thine House, To feast upon thy Grace. 4 In answ'ring what thy Church requests, Thy Truth and Terror shine, And Works of dreadful Righteousness, Fulfil thy kind Design. 5 Thus shall the wond'ring Nations see; The Lord is good and just; And distant Islands fly to thee, And make thy Name their Trust. 6 They dread thy glitt'ring Tokens, Lord, When Signs in Heav'n appear; But they shall learn thy holy Word, And love as well as fear.

Good is the Lord, the heav'nly King

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P65e (1766) Topics: God his Being, Attributes and Providence Lyrics: 1 Good is the Lord, the heav'nly King, Who makes the Earth his Care; Visits the Pastures ev'ry Spring, And bids the Grass appear. 2 The Clouds, like Rivers rais'd on high, Pour out at thy Command Their watry Blessings from the Sky, To chear the thirsty Land. 3 The soften'd Ridges of the Field Permit the Corn to spring; The Vallies rich Provision yield, And the poor Lab'rers sing. 4 The little Hills, on ev'ry Side, Rejoice at falling Show'rs; The Meadows, dresse'd in all their Pride, Perfume the Air with Flow'rs. 5 The barren Clods, refresh'd with Rain, Promise a joyful Crop; The parching Grounds look green again, And raise the Reaper's Hope. 6 The various Months thy Goodness crowns; How bount'ous are thy Ways? The bleating Flocks spread o'er the Downs, And Shepherds shout thy Praise. Languages: English

And fasting mortified his soul, While for their life he pray'd. 4 They groan'd, and curs'd him on their bed, Yet still he pleads and mourns; And double blessings on his head The righteous God returns. 5 Oh glorious type of heavenly grace!
