Out of the Depths I Cry to You On High

Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #130C (2012) Meter: 10.4.10.4.10.10 Topics: Darkness Lyrics: 1 Out of the depths I cry to you on high; Lord, hear my call. Bend down your ear and listen to my sigh, forgiving all. If you should mark our sins, who then could stand? But grace and mercy dwell at your right hand. 2 I wait for God, I trust his holy word; he hears my sighs. My soul still waits and looks unto the Lord; my prayers arise. I look for him to drive away my night– yes, more than those who watch for morning light. 3 Hope in the Lord: unfailing is his love; in him confide. Mercy and full redemption from above he does provide. From sin and evil, mighty though they seem, his arm almighty will his saints redeem. Languages: English Tune Title: SANDON

Out of the Deeps of long Distress

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P130a (1766) Topics: Patience in darkness Lyrics: 1 Out of the Deeps of long Distress, The Borders of Despair, I sent my Cries to seek thy Grace, My Groans to move thine Ear. 2 Great GOD, should thy severer Eye, And thine impartial Hand, Mark and revenge Iniquity, No mortal Flesh could stand. 3 But there are Pardons with my GOD For Crimes of high Degree; Thy Son has bought them with his Blood, To draw us near to Thee. 4 [I wait for thy Salvation, Lord, With strong Desires I wait; My Soul, invited by thy Word, Stands watching at thy Gate.] 5 [Just as the Guards that keep the Night, Long for the Morning Skies, Watch the first Beams of breaking Light, And meet them with their Eyes: 6 So waits my Soul to see thy Grace, And more intent than they, Meets the first Op'nings of thy Face, And finds a brighter Day.] 7 [Then in the Lord let Isr'el trust, Let Isr'el seek his Face; The Lord is good as well as just, And plenteous is his Grace. 8 There's full Redemption at his Throne For Sinners long enslav'd; The great Redeemer is his Son: And Isr'el shall be sav'd.] Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English

From deep Distress and trouble Thoughts

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P130b (1766) Topics: Patience in darkness Lyrics: 1 From deep Distress and troubled Thoughts, To thee, my GOD, I rais'd my Cries; If thou severely mark our Faults, No flesh can stand before thine Eyes. 2 But Thou hast built thy Throne of Grace, Free to dispense thy Pardons there, That Sinners may approach thy Face, And hope, and love, as well as fear. 3 As the benighted Pilgrims wait, And long and wish for breaking Day, So waits my Soul before thy Gate; When will my GOD his Face display? 4 My Trust is fix'd upon thy Word, Nor shall I trust thy Word in vain: Let mourning Souls address the Lord, And find Relief from all their Pain. 5 Great is his Love, and large his Grace, Through the Redemption of his Son; He turns our Feet from sinful Ways, And pardons what our Hands have done. Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English

God moves in a mysterious way

Author: Cowper Hymnal: The Voice of Praise #131 (1873) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Light in Darkness Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way His wonders to perform; He plants his footsteps in the sea, And rides upon the storm. 2 Deep in unfathomable mines Of never-failing skill, He treasures up his bright designs, And works his sovereign will. 3 Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take; The clouds ye so much dread Are big with mercy, and shall break In blessings on your head. 4 Judge not the Lord by feeble sense, But trust him for his grace; Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face. 5 His purposes will ripen fast, Unfolding every hour; The bud may have a bitter taste, But sweet will be the flower. 6 Blind unbelief is sure to err, And scan his work in vain: God is his own interpreter, And he will make it plain. Scripture: Genesis 45:5-7
