The Sovereign of the Sea

Hymnal: The Psalter #295 (1912) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Thanksgiving Declared First Line: They that traffic on the sea Lyrics: 1 They that traffic on the sea, While unceasing watch they keep, See Jehovah's majesty And His wonders in the deep; For He bids the storm-wind fly, Lifting ocean's waves on high. 2 By the billows heav'n-ward tossed, Down to dreadful depths again, Troubled much, their courage lost, Reeling, they like drunken men Find their skill and pow'r o'erthrown; None can save but God alone. 3 To Jehovah then they cry In their trouble, and He saves, Drives the darkness from the sky, Calms the storm and stills the waves, Makes their sad forebodings cease, To their haven guides in peace. 4 Sons of men, awake to praise God the Lord Who reigns above, Gracious in His works and ways, Wondrous in redeeming love; Praise Him where the people meet, Praise Him in the elders' seat.

Providential Visitations

Hymnal: The Psalter #296 (1912) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Topics: Thanksgiving Declared First Line: Springs and streams no longer bless Lyrics: 1 Springs and streams no longer bless All the dry and thirsty land; Fertile fields in verdant dress God converts to desert sand; For that they who dwell therein Turn to wickedness and sin. 2 Once again the waters well, All the desert blossoms fair; There He makes the hungry dwell, There a city they prepare, Plant their vines and sow their fields, And the earth her increase yields. 3 Now He blessed them indeed, They are greatly multiplied; On the hills their cattle feed, Fast increasing, spreading wide; Then again they are brought low Through oppression, grief, and woe. 4 His contempt the princes taste; Driven out they helpless fly, Wand'ring in the trackless waste; But He lifts the needy high, Where no evil shall annoy, And with children gives him joy. 5 When His righteous judgments come, Strong to bless and to destroy, All iniquity is dumb, All the righteous sing for joy; Who Jehovah wisely heed, In His works His mercy read.

He made the way before them plain, Himself became their guide; He brought them to a city strong Wherein they might abide. 3 O praise the Lord, ye sons of men, For all his goodness shown; O praise Him for the wondrous works To you He has made known. The longing soul that turns to Him He fully satisfies; He fills with good each hung'ring one That for His mercy cries. Scripture: Psalm 107 Languages: English Tune Title: OSTEND

Divine Retribution for Evil

Hymnal: The Psalter #300 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Thanksgiving Declared First Line: O God, Whom I delight to praise Lyrics: 1 O God, Whom I delight to praise, To Thee my cry for help I raise; Be Thou my friend and advocate When foes assail with bitter hate. 2 Against me sland'rous words are flung From many a false and lying tongue; Without a cause men hurl at me The shafts of deadly enmity. 3 My good with evil they repay, My love turns not their hate away; The part of vengeance, Lord, is Thine, To pray, and only pray, is mine. 4 Since love appeals to him in vain, The slave of sin let him remain; Against him let his foe be turned, His sin be judge, his prayer be spurned. 5 Let sudden death upon him break, His office let another take, His children and his widowed wife Pursue the homeless beggar's life. 6 Let creditors consume his toil And strangers make his wealth their spoil; Let none in pity heed his claim, Cut off his race, blot out his name. 7 His parents' sins be not forgot Till Thou from earth his memory blot, Since he remembered not to show Compassion to the sons of woe. 8 He cursing loved and blessing loathed; Unblest, with cursing he is clothed; For thus the justice of the Lord My adversaries will reward. 9 O God, the Lord, for Thy Name's sake Let me of Thy good grace partake; My need is great, and great Thou art To heal my wounded, stricken heart. 10 With failing strength I fast and pine, Like shadows swift my days decline, And when my foes my weakness see They shake the head in scorn at me. 11 O Lord my God, Thy help I crave, In Thy great loving-kindness save; Before my foes Thy mercy show; That Thou dost help me make them know. 12 What though they curse, if Thou wilt bless? Then joy shall banish my distress, And shame shall overwhelm the foes Who would Thy servant's way oppose. 13 Thanksgiving to the Lord I raise, The multitude shall hear my praise, For by the needy God will stand To save them from oppression's hand. Scripture: Psalm 109 Languages: English Tune Title: MEROE

Redemption and Grateful Love

Hymnal: The Psalter #310 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Thanksgiving Declared First Line: I love the Lord, for my request Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord, for my request And humble plea He makes His care; In Him through life my faith shall rest, for He both hears and answers prayer. 2 Brought nigh to death and full of grief, The Lord's salvation I besought; He heard my cry, He sent relief, My soul from depths of woe He brought. 3 Most kind and righteous is the Lord, Our God is merciful indeed, Delighting ever to afford His help to me in time of need. 4 Return unto thy rest, my soul, The Lord has richly dealt with thee, Delivered thee from death's control, From sin and sorrow set thee free. 5 Since He has freed my eyes from tears And kept my feet from evil ways, Redeemed from life's distressing fears, With Him I walk, and Him I praise. 6 In my affliction and my pain, When fears alarmed and hopes deceived, I found all human helpers vain, But in the Lord my soul believed.
