How Tender Is Thy Hand

Author: Thomas Hastings Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 99 hymnals Lyrics: 1 How tender is Thy hand, O Thou most gracious Lord! Afflictions came at Thy command, And left us at Thy word. 2 How gentle was the rod That chastened us for sin! How soon we found a smiling God Where deep distress had been. 3 A father’s hand we felt, A father’s love we knew; ’Mid tears of penitence we knelt, And found His promise true. 4 We told Him all our grief, We thought of Jesus’ love; A sense of pardon brought relief, And bade our pains remove. 5 Now will we bless the Lord, And in His strength confide; Forever be His name adored, For there is none beside.

The Man Is Ever Blessed

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 117 hymnals Lyrics: 1. The man is ever blessed Who shuns the sinners’ ways, Among their councils never stands, Nor takes the scorner’s place; 2. But makes the law of God His study and delight, Amidst the labors of the day, And watches of the night. 3. He like a tree shall thrive, With waters near the root; Fresh as the leaf his name shall live; His works are heav’nly fruit. 4. Not so th’ungodly race, They no such blessings find; Their hopes shall flee, like empty chaff Before the driving wind. 5. How will they bear to stand Before that judgment seat, Where all the saints, at Christ’s right hand, In full assembly meet! 6. He knows, and He approves The way the righteous go; But sinners and their works shall meet A dreadful overthrow. Used With Tune: DENNIS Text Sources: The Psalms of David, 1719
