Psalm 102
Author: Christopher Martin Idle (b. 1938) Hymnal: HGSP2008 #66 (2008) Meter: 11.10.11.10 First Line: Lord, hear my prayer! My cry shall come before you Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear my prayer! My cry shall come before you;
hide not your face when I am in distress.
My life burns up; my days have lost their glory,
drifting like smoke, in pain and helplessness.
2 Like some wild owl among deserted ruins,
lonely I call while enemies curse on.
Tears are my drink; God's wrath is my undoing;
ashes my food till all my days are gone.
3 But you, O Lord, remain enthroned for ever;
you will arise; in you shall kingdoms trust.
Now is the time; your city pleads your favour,
your servants love her stones, her very dust.
4 God will rebuild! Write this to sing tomorrow;
lips yet unformed their Hallelujahs cry!
Glory will dawn upon our world of sorrow,
freeing from prison those condemned to die.
5 Then shall your name on Zion's hill be spoken;
strangers shall fill Jerusalem with praise.
But as for me, my strength is bruised and broken;
spare me, O God; do not cut short my days!
6 Heaven and earth you formed in the beginning;
these soon wear out - Lord, you remain the same!
They shall be changed; your years endure unending;
our children's children live to praise your name. Topics: Christian Year Ash Wednesday; Despair and Trouble; God Faithfulness of; God in majesty Scripture: Psalm 102 Languages: English Tune Title: INTERCESSOR

and all that in me is
be stirrèd up his holy name
to magnify and bless.
2 Bless, O my soul, the Lord thy God,
and not forgetful be
of all his gracious benefits
he hath bestowed on thee.
3 All thine iniquities who doth
most graciously forgive;
who thy diseases all and pains
doth heal, and thee relieve.
4 Who doth redeem thy life, that thou
to death mayest not go down;
who thee with loving-kindness doth
and tender mercies crown.
5 Who with abundance of good things
doth satisfy thy mouth;
so that even as the eagle's age,
renewèd is thy youth. Topics: Gratitude; Healing; Salvation and Redemption Scripture: Psalm 103:1-5 Languages: English Tune Title: COLESHILL

Hymnal: HGSP2008 #70 (2008) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: Give praise and thanks unto the Lord Lyrics: 1 Give praise and thanks unto the Lord,
for bountiful is he;
his tender mercy doth endure
unto eternity.
2 God's mighty works who can express?
or show forth all his praise?
Blessèd are they that judgment keep,
and justly do always.
3 Remember me, Lord, with that love
which thou to thine dost bear;
with thy salvation, O my God,
to visit me draw near.
4 That I thy chosen's good may see,
and in their joy rejoice;
and may with thine inheritance
triumph with cheerful voice.
5 Blest be Jehovah, Israel's God,
to all eternity:
let all the people say, Amen.

Psalm 107
Hymnal: HGSP2008 #71 (2008) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D First Line: Give thanks unto the Lord our God Lyrics: 1 Give thanks unto the Lord our God.
How good and kind is he
whose tender mercy shall endure
through all eternity.
Let God's redeemed repeat these words
and give him thanks and praise
who rescued them from hostile hands,
preserved them all their days.
2 He gathered them from out the lands,
from north, south, east, and west.
They strayed in desert's pathless way,
no city found to rest.
Their weary soul within then faints
when thirst and hunger press;
in trouble then they cried to God;
he saved them from distress.
3 He made the way before them straight,
and he became their guide,
that they might to a city go
wherein they might abide.
Let all the children of the Lord
now praise him for his grace,
and for the works of wonder done
in every time and place! Topics: Deliverance; Guidance; Praise Scripture: Psalm 107:1-8 Languages: English Tune Title: WATSON
Psalm 107
Psalm 115
Author: Timothy Dudley-Smith (b. 1926) Hymnal: HGSP2008 #74 (2008) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D First Line: Not to us be glory given Lyrics: 1 Not to us be glory given,
but to him who reigns above:
Glory to the God of heaven
for his faithfulness and love!
What though unbelieving voices
hear no word and see no sign,
still in God my heart rejoices,
working out his will divine.
2 Not what human fingers fashion,
gold and silver, deaf and blind,
dead to knowledge and compassion,
having neither heart nor mind--
lifeless gods some yet adore them,
nerveless hands and feet of clay;
all become, who bow before them,
lost indeed, and dead as they.
3 Not in them the hope of blessing:
hope is in the living Lord!
High and low, his Name confessing,
find in him their shield and sword.
Hope of all whose hearts revere him
God of Israel, still the same!
God of Aaron! Those who fear him
he remembers all by name.
4 Not the dead, but we the living
praise the Lord with all our powers;
of his goodness freely giving,
his is heaven, earth is ours.
Not to us be glory given,
but to him who reigns above:
glory to the God of heaven
for his faithfulness and love! Topics: God Faithfulness of; Nation and Society; Praise Scripture: Psalm 115 Languages: English Tune Title: LUX EOI
Psalm 115
Psalm 116
Hymnal: HGSP2008 #75 (2008) Meter: 8.6.8.6 First Line: I love the Lord because he heard Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord, because he heard
my voice and earnest plea;
and while I live I'll call on him
who turned his ear to me.
2 The snares of death encompassed me,
hell had me in its grasp;
by grief and sorrow I was held,
no comfort could I clasp.
3 I called upon the name of God,
I called, and called again,
'Deliver now my soul, O Lord,
deliver me from pain.'
4 The Lord is gracious. God is good
and shows unfailing care.
God saves the meek: I was brought low;
he raised me from despair.
5 Be still, my soul, be calm again,
resume your quiet rest;
for God has kindly dealt with you,
his generous love expressed. Topics: Deliverance; Grief; Kindness; Love For God Scripture: Psalm 116:1-7 Languages: English Tune Title: ST. FLAVIAN (OLD 132nd)
