Thro' all the changing Scenes, have past

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 90 Lyrics: 1. Thro' all the changing Scenes, have past Over thy choscn Race; Thou, Lord, alone, from Age to Age, Hast been our dwelling Place. 2. Before the Mountains, Earth, or World, Were formed by thy Nod; Thou Lord, from everlasting art, To everlasting, God. 3. 'Tis thou, to Rottenness, and Dust, Dost turn weak mortal Man; For thou hast said, "Ye Adam's Sons, "Return to Earth again. 4. And should he reach a Thousand Years, It would be, in thy Sight, But as a Day, that's past, and gone; Or a short Watch by Night. 5. As with a Flood's most rapid Stream, Thou dost them sweep away; Like Dreams they vanish; in the Morn, As Grass, look fair, and gay: 6. But howsoe'er it looks, away It's Morning Beauty fiies; When Ev'ning comes, 'tis all cut down, It withereth up, and dies. 7. We, by thine Anger, are consum'd; Thy Wrath does us afright. 8. Thou set'st our Crimes, and secret Sins, All plain before thy Sight. 9. Thence, all our Days, in thy hot Wrath, To speedy End are brought; We spend our Years, as quick as Speech, Swift as a Breath, or Thought. 10. Our Days are Threescore Years and Ten; If Strength to Fourscore stay, 'Tis Grief, and Pain; we're soon cut off, And hence we fly away. Second Part 11. Oh! Who doth know thine Anger's Force! Wrath, as thy Fear, is great! 12. Teach us to number so our Days, That we may Wisdom get. 13. Return, Jehovah, O return; How long shall be the Space? And let thy yearning Bowels move. To shew thy Servants Grace. 14. Oh, let thy Mercy early fill Our Souls, and Spirits raise; That we may triumph, and rejoice, Thro' all our future Days. 15. May our succeeding Days, and Years, Abundant Comfort yield: As all our former Ones have been, With great Affliction fill'd. 16. Let this thy special Work of Love, Be to thy Servants shown; The Glory of thy promised Grace, To all their Offspring known. 17. The Beauty of the Lord, our God, Let on us ever shine; Guide, and confirm, cur handy Work, And prosper our Design.

Almighty Lord, e'er since the world began

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 90 Lyrics: 1 Almighty Lord, e'er since the world began, Great hath been thy beneficence to man; E'er since this earth first run her annual round, In thee her thankless sons defence have found. 2 Still thou'rt the same, and ever wast the same, Ere yet the world assum'd this beauteous frame, Ere yet the high, the lofty hills appear'd; Ere yet the glad'ning day gay mortals chear'd; Ere spread dun night her horrors all abroad, Thou art the same, the everlasting God. 3 But thou hast giv'n short space to man on earth; Soon fleet the winged minutes from his birth To that dark hour, when all his schemes are vain, And to his parent-dust he goes again. 4 'Fore thee glide swift a thousand years away; To thee they seem a fleeting winter's day; Sudden they pass, and strait no more are seen, And leave no trace, to tell us, they have been. 5 They roll impetuous like a rapid stream; Insensibly they leave us like a dream; Well to the grass we may our lives compare; 6 The grass that looks at morn so fresh, so fair, That with it's verdant spires enchants the sight, But hangs the head, and withers ere 'tis night. 7 Yet not with life's short period we're distrest, As when thy dreadful anger strikes the breast; 8 For whate'er errors in our bosoms roll, Whate'er base pass9ons hold in chains the soul, Howe'er conceal'd, or kept from open day, Does thy all-seeing eye, O God, survey; 9 And while thy vengeance strikes us with despair, Swifter than thought, life vanishes to air. 10 For sev'nty years while goes his rounds the sun, To man 'tis giv'n his stated course to run; Haply his strength holds cut ten winters more; But then all solid joys of life are o'er; On feeble age unnumber'd cares attend, Unnumber'd griefs that but with life shall end; 11 And, if our God strict justice shou'd demand, Ah! who can bear his dread avenging hand? 12 Teach us our short-liv'd period to discern, That we the road, to heav'n, to bliss may learn; 13 Benign O hear us, and thine anger cease; Return, O Lord, and calm our souls to peace. 14 O let thy mercy fill our hearts with joy, That our remaining hours we may employ 15 In peaceful scenes, devoid of griefs, of fears, Free from the mis'ries of our former years. 16 Thy glorious works, the wonders of thy pow'r, Shew to thy servants, that they may adore; And, that their off-spring may thy laws obey, Thy great, thy awful attributes, display. 17 And let, O God, thy clemency divine With happy influence on thy chosen shine, That ev'ry action of our life may prove, Thy grace directs us, prospers us thy love.

To heav'n who trust his fortunes and his life

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 90 Lyrics: 1 To heav'n who trusts his fortunes and his life, Tho' rage around contention, broil and strife; Tho' wild uproar and dire confusion sway, His God will be his firm support and stay. 2 Thou then bad fate and her assaults defy; Thou to thy God for safe protection fly; Call him thy refuge, on his pow'r depend, And he will ever, ever be thy friend. 3 From dark designs of crafty men he'll free, From all their toils will give thee liberty; In fatal times, when rage diseases round, Thy great preserver he will still be found. 4 O'er thee his shelt'ring wings shall he expand; Firm, firm beneath almighty care thou'lt stand; Nor ever to thy adverse fortunes yield, The God of battles, thy defence and shield. 5 Secure he'll guide thee in the gloomy night, From dangers safe, as in the mid-day-light; Secure he'll lead thee in the open day, Nor foes, nor wars, nor terrors, shall dismay. 7 In battle tho' ten thousand round thee fall, Thy guarded heart no perils shall appall. 8 Mean while with joy the wicked thou shalt view Sink in the mis'ries that their crimes pursue. 9 For heav'n's high God thy refuge thou hast made, And on his mercy hast relied for aid; 10 Therefore thy dwelling hears no big alarm; No sad mischance thy peaceful soul shall harm: 11 And to his angels he has giv'n command, To watch thy steps, to guide thee by the hand; O'er wilds, o'er cliffs, o'er desarts, thee to lead, That, free from bruises, thou secure may'st tread: 13 That thou not fear, whene'er thou pass the brake, The crested basilisk or scaly snake; That thou undaunted may'st the tiger meet, And crush the lordly lion with thy feet. 14 For says th' almighty Lord, "'Cause me he loves, "My name adores, and my dread law approves, "His soul I'll guard, and soon exalt him high; 15 "To me, his God, he in distress shall cry; "Him strait I'll hear, from all his terrors free, "And raise him to imperial dignity; 16 "A length of days upon him shall attend, "And joys immortal, joys that ne'er shall end."
