Psalm 30 Part 1
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 69 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 First Line: I Will extol thee, Lord, on high Lyrics:
I Will extol thee, Lord, on high,
At thy command diseases fly:
Who but a God can speak and save
From the dark borders of the grave?
Sing to the Lord, ye saints of his,
And tell how large his goodness is;
Let all your powers rejoice and bless
While you record his holiness.
His anger but a moment stays;
His love is life and length of days;
Though grief and tears the night employ,
The morning star restores the joy.

Psalm 30 Part 2
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 72 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30:6-12 First Line: Firm was my health, my day was bright Lyrics:
Firm was my health, my day was bright,
And I presumed 'twould ne'er be night;
Fondly I said within my heart,
"Pleasure and peace shall ne'er depart."
But I forgot thine arm was strong
Which made my mountain stand so long:
Soon as thy face began to hide,
My health was gone, my comforts died.
I cried aloud to thee, my God,
"What canst thou profit by my blood?
Deep in the dust can I declare
Thy truth, or sing thy goodness there?
"Hear me, O God of grace," I said,
"And bring me from among the dead:"
Thy word rebuked the pains I felt,
Thy pard'ning love removed my guilt.
My groans, and tears, and forms of woe
Are turned to joy and praises now;
I throw my sackcloth on the ground,
And ease and gladness gird me round
My tongue, the glory of my frame,
Shall ne'er be silent of thy name;
Thy praise shall sound through earth and heav'n
For sickness healed and sins forgiv'n.

Psalm 30 Part 2
O Lord, by Grace Delivered
Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Appears in 25 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 Lyrics: 1 O Lord, by grace delivered,
I now with songs extol;
my foes you have not suffered
to glory o'er my fall.
O Lord, my God, I sought you,
and you did heal and save;
you, Lord, from death did ransom
and keep me from the grave.
2 His holy name remember;
you saints, Jehovah praise;
his anger lasts a moment,
his favor all our days;
for sorrow, like a pilgrim,
may tarry for a night,
but joy the heart will gladden
when dawns the morning light.
3 In prosp'rous days I boasted;
unmoved I shall remain;
for, Lord, by your good favor
my cause you did maintain;
I soon was sorely troubled,
for you did hide your face;
I cried to you, Jehovah,
I sought Jehovah's grace.
4 What profit if I perish,
if life you do not spare?
Shall dust repeat your praises,
shall it your truth declare?
O Lord, on me have mercy,
and my petition hear;
that you may be my helper,
in mercy, Lord, appear.
5 My grief is turned to gladness,
to you my thanks I raise,
who have removed my sorrow
and girded me with praise;
and now, no longer silent,
my heart your praise will sing;
O Lord, my God, forever
my thanks to you I bring.

for you have raised me up;
I cried to you for help,
and you restored my life.
You brought me back from death
and saved me from the grave.
2 Sing praises to the LORD,
all those who know his name;
for while his wrath is brief,
his favor knows no end.
Though tears flow for a night,
the morning brings new joy.
3 I said, "I am so strong,
I never shall be moved";
but you, LORD, shook my life
my heart was in distress.
I cried out for your help
and pleaded for your grace:
4 "What good am I when dead,
while lying in the grave?
Can dust recount your love,
the grave proclaim your praise?
O hear me, gracious LORD,
in mercy be my aid!"
5 My mourning you have turned
to dancing and to joy;
my sadness you dispelled
as gladness filled my soul.
And so I'll sing your praise,
my God, through all my days.

Psalm 30: Lord, I will thee extol, for thou
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 9 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 First Line: Lord, I will thee extol, for thou Lyrics:
1Lord, I will thee extol, for thou
hast lifted me on high,
And over me thou to rejoice
mad’st not mine enemy.
2O thou who art the Lord my God,
I in distress to thee,
With loud cries lifted up my voice,
and thou hast healed me.
3O Lord, my soul thou hast brought up,
and rescu’d from the grave;
That I to pit should not go down,
alive thou didst me save.
4O ye that are his holy ones,
sing praise unto the Lord;
And give unto him thanks, when ye
his holiness record.
5For but a moment lasts his wrath;
life in his favour lies:
Weeping may for a night endure,
at morn doth joy arise.
6In my prosperity I said,
that nothing shall me move.
7O Lord, thou hast my mountain made
to stand strong by thy love:
But when that thou, O gracious God,
didst hide thy face from me,
Then quickly was my prosp’rous state
turn’d into misery.
8Wherefore unto the Lord my cry
I caused to ascend:
My humble supplication
I to the Lord did send.
9What profit is there in my blood,
when I go down to pit?
Shall unto thee the dust give praise?
thy truth declare shall it?
10Hear, Lord, have mercy; help me, Lord:
11Thou turned hast my sadness
To dancing; yea, my sackcloth loos’d,
and girded me with gladness;
12That sing thy praise my glory may,
and never silent be.
O Lord my God, for evermore
I will give thanks to thee.
Psalm 30: Lord, I will thee extol, for thou
I'll celebrate thy Praises, Lord
Appears in 9 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 Lyrics: 1 I'll celebrate thy Praises, Lord,
who didst thy Pow'r employ
To raise my drooping Head, and check
my Foes insulting Joy.
2,3 In my Distress I cry'd to Thee,
who kindly dist relieve,
And from the Grave's expecting Jaws
my hopeless Life retrieve.
4 Thus to his Courts, ye Saints of His,
with Songs of Praise repair;
With me commemorate his Truth,
and providential Care.
5 His Wrath has but a Moment's Reign;
His Favour no Decay:
Your Night of Grief is recompens'd
with Joy's returning Day.
6 But I, in prosp'rous Days, presum'd;
no suddent Change I fear'd:
Whilst in my sun-shine of Success
no low'ring Cloud appeard.
7 But soon I found thy Favour, Lord,
my Empire's only Trust;
For when thou hidd'st thy Face, I saw
my Honour laid in Dust.
8 Then, as I vainly had presum'd,
my Error I confess'd;
And thus with supplicating Voice,
thy Mercy's Throne address'd:
9 "What Profit is there in my blood,
"congeal'd by Death's cold Night?
"Can silent Ashes speak thy praise,
"thy wond'rous Truth recite?
10 "Hear me, O Lord; in mercy hear;
"thy wonted Aid extend:
"Do Thou send Help, on whom alone
"I can for Help depend."
11 'Tis done! Thou hast my mournful Scene
to Songs and Dances turn'd;
Invested me in Robes of State,
who late in Sack-cloth mourn'd.
12 Exalted thus, I'll gladly sing
thy Praise in grateful Verse;
And, as thy Favours endless are,
thy endless Praise rehearse.
I'll celebrate thy Praises, Lord

For Thou hast set me free,
Nor suffered foes to claim
A triumph over me;
O Lord, my God, to Thee I cried
And Thou hast health and strength supplied,
And Thou hast health and strength supplied.
2 Thou hast my soul restored
When I was near the grave,
And from the depths, O Lord,
Thou graciously didst save;
O ye His saints, sing to the Lord,
With thanks His holiness record,
With thanks His holiness record.
3 His wrath is quickly past,
His favor lives for aye;
Tho' grief a night may last,
Joy comes at break of day;
In my prosperity secure
I said, My peace shall still endure;
I said, My peace shall still endure.

A Psalm and song at the Dedication of the House of David
Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 First Line: Lord, I will thee extol on high Lyrics: 1 Lord, I will thee extol on high,
For thou hast made me rise;
And joyful hast not made to be
O'er me mine enemies.
2 I Lord my God to thee cry'd have,
And thou hast made me whole,
3 Jehovah thou out of the grave
Hast raised up my soul.
From pit's descent thou quicknedst me,
4 O sing unto the Lord,
And ye his saints give thanks when ye
His holiness record.
5 For's wrath doth but a while abide,
Life in his love doth stay:
If weeping lodge at ev'ning tide,
Yet joy at break of day.
6 For in my prosp'rous state I said,
Now shall I never slide,
7 Lord, by thy favour thou hast made
My mountain fast abide
8 Thou hid'st thy face, I troubled was,
Lord I to thee did cry;
Also my humble suit for grace
Unto the Lord made I.
9 What profit in my blood can be,
When I to pit go down?
Shall dust give glory unto thee?
Shall it thy truth make known?
10 Do thou me, O Jehovah, hear,
And on me mercy have:
To me, Jehovah, be thou near,
And helper me to save.
11 My mourning then a dance into
For me thou turned hast:
With joy thou didst me gird also,
And off my sackcloth cast.
12 So shall my glory sing thy praise,
And never silent be;
Jehovah, O my God always
I will give thanks to thee.

Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 Lyrics: 1 Thanks be to God, who heard our pray'r,
When we had fears and doubt;
When fierce diseases ev'ry where,
Compass'd our land about.
2 When death, that cruel tyrant made,
Poor mortals feel his pow'r;
And in another world have fled,
Not to return no more.
3 How melancholy was the sound,
To hear they dying groan:
Can no relief or help be found,
Till we are fled and gone.
4 And must our troubled spirits fly,
To God, who first them gave;
Our bodies only made to die!
And moulder in the grave.
5 Great God, how mournful was the scene;
Where e'er his was the case;
But great thy mercies e'er have been,
To those who trust thy grace.
6 Thanks be to God, that we are spar'd,
To see the present day.
O, make us ready, gracious Lord,
Till we be call'd away. Topics: Thanksgiving after Diseases

O Lord, I give to thee:
Which didst not make my foes rejoyce,
but hast exalted me.
2 O Lord my God, to thee I cri'd
in all my paine and griefe
Thou gav'st an eare, and didst provide
to ease me with reliefe.
3 Of thy good will thou hast cald back
my soule from hell to save:
Thou didst revie when strength did lack
and kepest me from the grave.
4 Sing praise ye Saints that prove and see
the goodnesse of the Lord:
In memory of his Majesty
rejoyce with one accord.
5 For why? his anger but a space
doth last and slack againe:
But in his favour and his grace
alwaies doth life remaine.
Though gripes and grief and pangs full sore
shall lodge with us all night:
The Lord to joy shall us restore
before the day be light.
6 When I enjoy'd the world at will,
thus would I boast and say:
Tush, I am sure to feele none ill,
this wealth shall not decay.
7 For thou O Lord of thy good grace
hadst sent me strength and aid;
But when thou turn'st away thy face,
my mind was sore dismaid,
8 Wherefore againe yet did I cry
to thee O Lord of might:
My God with plaints I did apply,
and pray'd both day and night.
9 What gaine is in my blood (said I)
if death destroy my daie?
Doth dust declare thy Majesty,
or yet thy truth doth praise?
10 Wherefore my God some pity take,
O Lord I thee desire:
Do not this simple soule forsake,
of help I thee require.
11 Then didst thou turn my grief & woe
into a cheerfull voice:
The mourning weed thou tolok'st me fro,
and mad'st me to rejoyce,
12 Wherefore my soule uncessantly
shall sing unto thy praise:
My Lord my God to thee will I
give laud and thanks alwais. Used With Tune: [All laud and praise with heart and voice]

I lay in dust life’s glory dead,
and from the ground there blossoms red
life that shall endless be.

Open and take me in.

Watch till the morning-star,

will turn my tears to gladness.

his loving thought attends me;
no poison can be in the cup
that my physician sends me.

each morning new
I trust his grace unending,
my life to him commending.
4 What God ordains is always good:
he is my friend and father;
he will not let me come to harm
though many storms may gather.
Now I may know
both joy and woe;
some day I shall see clearly
that he has loved me dearly.
5 What God ordains is always good:
this truth remains unshaken.
Though sorrow, need, or death be mine,
I shall not be forsaken.
I fear no harm,
for with his arm
he shall embrace and shield me;
so to my God I yield me. Topics: Assurance; Providence Used With Tune: WAS GOTT TUT Text Sources: Tr.: The Lutheran Hymnal, 1941, alt.
What God ordains is always good
Let him embrace my soul, and prove
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30:6-12 Lyrics:
Let him embrace my soul, and prove
Mine interest in his heav'nly love;
The voice that tells me, "Thou art mine,"
Exceeds the blessings of the vine.
On thee th' anointing Spirit came,
And spreads the savor of thy name;
That oil of gladness and of grace
Draws virgin souls to meet thy face.
Jesus, allure me by thy charms,
My soul shall fly into thine arms!
Our wand'ring feet thy favors bring
To the fair chambers of the King.
[Wonder and pleasure tune our voice
To speak thy praises and our joys;
Our memory keeps this love of thine
Beyond the taste of richest wine.]
Though in ourselves deformed we are,
And black as Kedar's tents appear,
Yet, when we put thy beauties on,
Fair as the courts of Solomon.
[While at his table sits the King,
He loves to see us smile and sing;
Our graces are our best perfume,
And breathe like spikenard round the room.]
As myrrh new bleeding from the tree,
Such is a dying Christ to ine
And while he makes my soul his guest,
My bosom, Lord, shall be thy rest.
[No beams of cedar or of fir
Can with thy courts on earth compare;
And here we wait, until thy love
Raise us to nobler seats above.]

Yea, I will extol Thee
Lord of life and light,
For Thine arm upheld me,
Turn'd my foes to flight;
I implored Thy succour,
Thou wert swift to save,
Heal my wounded spirit,
Bring me from the grave.

Sing, ye saints, sing praises!
Call His love to mind,
For a moment angry,
But for ever kind;
Grief may, like a stranger,
Through the night sojourn,
Yet shall joy, to-morrow,
With the sun return.
In my wealth I vaunted,
"Nought shall move me hence;
Thou hast made my mountain,
Strong in Thy defence:"--
Then Thy face was hidden,
Trouble laid me low,
"Lord," I cried right humbly,
"Why forsake me so?"
"Would my blood appease Thee,
In atonement shed?
Can the dust give glory?--
Praise employ the dead?
Hear me, Lord, in mercy,
God my Helper, hear."
--Long Thou didst not tarry,
Help and health were near.
Thou hast turn'd my mourning
Into minstrelsy,
Girded me with gladness,
Set from thraldom free:
Thee my ransom'd powers
Henceforth shall adore,
Thee, my great Deliverer,
Laud for evermore.

O Sun of Righteousness, appear.

The earth with strife is worn;
the hills with thunder shake,
hearts of the people mourn:
break, day of God, sweet day of peace,
and bid the shout of warriors cease.

like to the days above!
Let purity awake,
and faith, and hope, and love.

the golden morn is drawing nigh. Topics: Advent Used With Tune: CHRISTCHURCH

With Heart and Voice in one Accord
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 30 Lyrics: 1 With Heart and Voice in one Accord,
I'll celebrate thy Praises, LORD:
For thou hast set me up on high,
Ev'n when insulting Foes were nigh;
With Fury they my Peace assail'd,
'Till thy all-conqu'ring Arm prevali'd.
2 In my Distress I cry'd to thee,
Who didst in Mercy set me free;
My Eyes were almost clos'd in Death,
And I had nigh resign'd my Breath;
When thou my hopeless Life retriev'd,
And from the Grave my Soul reliev'd.
3 Thus in his Courts, with Songs of Praise,
Ye Saints your grateful Voices raise;
His Truth and tender Love declare,
And bless his providential Care:
His tender Mercies loud proclaim,
And ever bless his glorious Name.
4 His Anger soon is over-pass'd,
His Favours will forever last;
Tho' Sorrow may a Night endure,
Yet in his loving Kindness sure;
For with the chearful Dawn of Morn,
His chearing Mercy will return.
Your Night of Grief is recompens'd
with Joy's returning Day.

6 But I presum'd in prosp'rous Days,
My Glory's yet unsully'd Rays;
And as no low'ring clouds appear'd,
So I no sudden Danger fear'd:
I thought the LORD my Ways approve'd,
And I should never be remov'd.
6 But soon I found thy Favour, LORD!
Alone could solemn Joy afford:
For when thy Face was trun'd away,
My blooming Hopes dishonour'd lay;
My Sin I humbly then confess'd,
And thus again the LORD address'd.
7 "What Profit in my Blood is found,
"When cold congealed in the Bround?
"Can silent Ashes ever raise,
"The glorious Tribute of thy Praise?
"Oh then thy wonted Aid extend,
"For on thee only I depend!"
11 'Tis done, and thou hast chang'd my Fate,
Investing me in Robes of State;
Thou hast my Grief to Gladness turn'd,
Tho' lately I in Sack-cloth mourn'd;
Therefore my Songs, with grateful Joy,
In praising thee, I will employ.

With sorrow changed to joy,

And songs my lips employ;
So shall my tongue thro' life adore
And praise Thy Name for evermore.
