O Lord, My God, You Know All My Ways

Author: Paul Wigmore Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #139E (2012) Topics: Darkness Lyrics: 1 O Lord, my God, you know all my ways, when I sleep and I rise, when I sit or stand; and before any word is upon my tongue you discern it as though I had spoken it. 2 Where can I go to be far from you? In the deepest of caves, in the heights of heaven? If I rise up and fly on the wings of dawn, still your right hand will guide me and hold me fast. 3 O Lord, my God, you created me, in a wonderful way you have fashioned me. Test my spirit and see what is in my heart; lead me on in the way to eternal life. Scripture: Psalm 139 Languages: English Tune Title: SHEPHERDSWELL

Hear My Prayer, O God

Author: Carl P. Daw, Jr., b. 1944 Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #143A (2012) Meter: 5.6.5.6 D Topics: Darkness Lyrics: 1 Hear my prayer, O God, and listen to my plea; faithful, righteous One, give ear and answer me. Judge me not, I pray; no merit dare I claim; knowing my own faults, I trust in your just Name. 2 Hounded by a foe who crushed me to the ground, I am like the dead or those in prison bound. Hopeless, numbed by fear, I ponder all your care; thirsty as parched earth, I lift my hands in prayer. 3 Answer soon, O God; my spirit faints in me; do not hide your face, or I will cease to be. 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. Scripture: Psalm 143 Tune Title: HYMN CHANT

Out of the deeps of long distress

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: The Psalms and Hymns of Dr. Watts #157 (1835) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Patience in darkness Lyrics: 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. Great God, should thy severer eye, And thine impartial hand, Mark and revenge iniquity, No mortal flesh could stand. 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. [I wait for thy salvation, Lord, With strong desires I wait; My soul, invited by thy word, Stands watching at thy gate.] [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; So waits my soul to see thy grace, And, more intent than they, Meets the first openings of thy face, And finds a brighter day.] [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. There's full redemption at his throne For sinners long enslaved; The great Redeemer is his Son, And Isr'el shall be saved.] Scripture: Psalm 130 Languages: English
