The Mercies of the Lord I'll sing

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 89 Lyrics: 1. The Mercies of the Lord, I'll sing, And never cease the Song; From Age to Age, thy Faithfulness I'll publish with my Tongue. 2. For I have said, that Mercy shall Forever built remain; Thy Faithfulness, thou, in the Heav'ns, And like them, wilt maintain. 3. "With mine Elect, I form'd a League, "An Oath to David swore; 4. "I'll fix thy Seed, and build thy Throne, "Secure forevermore. 5. The Heav'ns, for thy great Wonder, Lord, Shall with thy Praises ring; While thine assembled Saints, on Earth, Thy Faithfulness shall sing. 6. But who of all the heav'nly Hosts, May with the Lord compare? What Sons of all the earthly Gods, Vie with Jehovah, dare? 7. God's Terror strikes his Saints below, With a religious Fear; And awful Rev'rence guards the Minds, That round his Throne appear. Second Part 8. Lord, God of Hosts, who's arm'd with Pow'r, Or girt with Truth, like Thee? 9. Proud Waves arise, are still, and calm. As thou do'st rule the Sea. 10. Thou, Egypt's Pow'r, with deadly Wounds, Hast into Pieces broke; Thine Arm of Strength dispers'd thy Foes, With an avenging Stroke. 11. Thine are the Heav'ns, the Earth is thine, Which thou alone hast made; As for the World, with all it's Stores, God it's Foundation laid. 12. The northern, and the southern Poles, Thou, by thy Pow'r, did'st frame; Tabor, and Hermon, famous Mounts, Rejoice shall in thy Name. 13. Thy Arm is mighty, strong thy Hand, Thy Right-hand's fam'd in Deed. 14. Justice And Judgment, found thy Throne, While Grace and Truth, precede. 15. Blest Men! who know the joyful Sound; They in thy Favour walk. 16. All Day, they in thy Name, rejoice; Justice shall them exalt. 17. Thou, Glory of their Strength, shalt raise Our Horn, thro' Favour shown. 18. Jehovah's our Defence; our King Is Isr'els holy One. Third Part 19. "In Vision, to thine holy One. "Thou said'st, I'll Help impose "On one that's mighty; whom I've rais'd, "And from the People chose. 20. "I've found my Servant David; him "With holy Oil anoint. 21. "Him shall my Hand confirm; mine Arm "Support whom I appoint. 22. "No En'mies Arts shall him deceive; "Nor wicked Men controul. 23. "I'll crush his Foes, before his Face, "And plague the spiteful Soul. 24. "My Truth, & Grace, with him, shall raose "His Horn high, in my Name: 25. "His Left-Hand Bounds, I'll fix the Sea; "His Right, Euphrates Stream. 26. "To me my Father, God, and Rock "Of Safety, he shall cry. 27. "I'l place him my First-born, above "All earthly Kings, most high. 28. "I'll ever Mercy for him keep; "My Cov'nant standeth fast. 29. "His Seed shall never fail, his Throne, "As Days of Heav'n, shail last. Fourth Part 30. "But if his Sons forsake my Law, "And from my Judgments stray; 31. "If they my Statutes break, and dare "My Precepts disobey: 32. "Their Sin I'll visit with a Rod; "With Stripes, as Crimes prevail. 33. "But from him I'll not take my Love, "My Truth shall never fail. 34. "My Cov'nant I will never break; "Nor, what I've said, deny. 35. "Once, by my Holiness, I've sworn; "I'll not to David lye. 36. "His Race shall never fail; his Throne "Shall, as the Sun, endure: 37. "Fix'd ever, as the Moon; in Heav'n, "Which, Witnesses, are sure. 38. But thine Anointed, thou, in Scorn, And Anger, off hast cast. 39. Thou mad'st thy Servant's Cov'nant void, In Dust his Crown debas'd. 40. Thou, all his Hedges, hast broke down; His Forts in Ruin laid. 41. He's spoil'd by all that by him pass; His Neighbour's Scorn he's made. 42. His Foes thou causest to rejoice; Confirming their Right-Hand. 43. His Sword was blunted, nor could he In Dav of Battle stand. 44. His Throne thou level'st with the Ground; And hast eclips'd his Fame. 45. His Youth, and Reign,thou short hast cut; And cover'd him with Shame. Fifth Part 46. How long, O Lord, wilt thou abscond, And we thy Absence mourn? Forever? Shall thy Wrath, like Fire, Against thy People burn? 47. Oh, call to Mind, what is the Age Thou dost for Man ordain? Wherefore hast thou created all The Sons of Men in vain. 48. What Man that lives, can Death escape? What Skill, or Pow'r, can save His Soul from his strong griping Hands? Or rescue from the Grave? 49. Where's Lord,thy former Love, thou didst. In Truth, to David, swear? 50. Remember, Lord, with what Contempt, Thy Servants treated are: I've, in my Bosom, the Reproach Of mighty People borne; 51. Wherewith thine Enemies, O Lord, Have poured out their Scorn; They thine Anointed's Steps traduc'd, And thus reproached Thee. 52. Bless'd be the Lord forever more; Amen; Amen; say we.

The glorious subject of my tuneful song

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 89 Lyrics: 1 The glorious subject of my tuneful song Be thou, O God—--to thee my strains belong. While lasts the sun, while times to times succeed, Thy goodness in my numbers shall be read. 2 For sure the orbs in yon etherial plain To their primoeval nought return again, Ere thou the wonders of thy mercy cease, Or 'gainst thy sacred covenant transgress. 3 Thy sacred covenant with David made, 4 That, while yon lights the fields of air pervade, While stands this solid earth upon her base, While knows old ocean his appointed space, His progeny shall sit upon the throne, And Israel's faithful tribes their rule shall own. 5 Thee, great Jehovah, thee the heav'nly host Adore, and make thy mighty works their boast; Thy truth the righteous make their constant theme, Sing all thy mercies, and extol thy name. 6 With thee compar'd, O Lord, how meanly shew The thrones above, the sceptred kings below? 7 Th' etherial myriads tremble at thy nod; Fear earth's imperious lords th' Almighty God, 8 Dread God of battles, who is like to thee? Who mates thy pow'r, thy truth, thy majesty? 9 Thou rein'st the fury of the swelling main, And dost the madness of her waves restrain; 10 Th' Egyptian tyrant felt thy vengeful hand; Feel all, who dare thy sov'reign rule withstand: Thine are the bright celestial worlds above-- Thine is the earth--by thy command they move; Earth's varied blessings to thy love we owe; From thee, Creator-Lord, from thee they flow. 12 Thee the rude north, and rainy south, obey, And where the sun begins, where ends the day, Blest Tabor seated in the glowing west, Bright Herman, gladden'd by the beamy east, 13 Strong is thy arm, resistless is thy hand; 14 Nigh to thy throne bright truth, stern juftice, stand; Full in thy view sweet clemency appears, Blest attribute! that calms our pious fears. 15 Thrice happy they, that hear thy gracious call, Flock to thy fane, and 'fore thy altar fall! On them with kindliest ray thy light shall shine; 16 Daily they feel the joys of love divine; Rais'd by thy goodness to the highest bliss, 17 Pow'r, empire, glory, shall they long possess; 18 Their strong support, their mighty leader thou, They gain a glorious conquest o'er the foe. 19 His sacred prophet hear, ye sons of men; By him th' Almighty speaks, nor speaks in vain: "David, my servant, from his low estate, "I've rais'd, and plac'd him on the royal seat; "With kingly majefty I've him array'd, "And sprinkled with my sacred oils his head. 20 "To him I'll strength and nervous force impart, "And with firm courage fortify his heart; 22 "Brave, he shall scorn the foe's proud menaces, "Nor villain-schemes shall have 'gainst him success: 24 "True to my word, assistance I'll supply, "And 'bove the clouds will raise his glory high. 25 "E'en from the sea the nations he shall sway, "To where Euphrates rolls his rapid way: 26 "Me his support, his father he shall call, "To me, as to his God, shall prostrate fall: 27 "Him with peculiar honour I will grace, "As loves the sire the first-born of his race; "'Bove other potentates I'll raise his name, "And set him foremost in the lifts of fame. 28 "Nor to the present is my love confin'd, "Nor to himself alone the sanctions bind; 29 "I'll to his progeny the throne secure, "And, long as beams the sun, shall last their pow'r; 30 "But, if his children from my statutes stray, 31 "Spurn at my laws, and not my will obey, 32 "Soon for the vile transgression they shall smart, "And soon I'll punish their rebellious heart. 33 "Yet shan't my mercy my own David leave; "My covenant I made not, to deceive; 34 "Faithful and firm, I'll to my word remain; "What once I've said, shall man oppose in vain. 35 "And by my holy self to him I swore, (And ne'er shall he my broken oath deplore) 36 "Till dies the world, till time no more runs on, "His blest posterity shall fill the throne; 37 "To this be witness, all ye lights above; "When fails his race, no more your orbits move." 38 Thy gracious promise this--but now, alas! From thy anointed thou hast hid thy face; 39 Thy covenant forgot, and now cast down, For hostile feet to trample on, his crown. 40 His cities thou'st laid open to the foe; Their walls dismantled, and their tow'rs brought low. 41 We're fall'n a prey to all the nations round; With their insulting taunts our souls they wound; 42 Supported by thy hand, victorious they Highly exult, and with success are gay. 43 Edgeless our swords, we vainly dare the field, Are soon defeated, and with shame we yield; 44 Our pride, our glory, in the dust are laid, And dreadful dreary darkness shades our head; 45 In vile dishonour, in distress we lie, Few are our days, and immature we die. 46 How long, O Lord, will last thy dreadful ire? Shall burn thy fury like consuming fire? 47 Remember, Lord; how short the life of man; Surely thou'st not created us in vain! 48 But a few days we breathe the vital air, And those few days are clouded all with care, From death's dire call not one his soul can save, And soon we're mould'ring in the gloomy grave. 49 Where are thy wonted tender mercies flown; When first thou set'st thy David on a throne? 50 O view the killing scorn, the sore distress, Wherewith our impious foes thy tribes distress; Their shocking insults in my breast I bear, While they their horrid blasphemies declare; 51 With insolent derision while they say, "He'll come your promis'd king await the day "Your Christ will come (they cry) the prince of peace, "And then, belike, your miseries will cease!" 52 But let them sneer to their confusion, they Shall feel his terrors at th' appointed day; Our Christ will come thy judgments he'll proclaim, And all the earth shall tremble at thy name.
