A Psalm for Solomon

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 72 First Line: O God, thy judgments give the King Lyrics: 1 O God thy judgments give the king; Thy justice likewise to his son. 2 Just judgment he thy folk shall bring, And to thy poor see judgment done. 3 The mountains shall abundantly Unto the people bring forth peace; The little hills acordingly By executing righteousness. 4 Poor of the people judge he shall, And children of the needy save; He shall to pieces break ev'n all, Them that with fraud oppressed have. 5 They shall thee fear while sun and moon Endure, through generations all. 6 Like rain on mown grass he shall come, As show'rs on earth distilling fall. 7 The just shall flourish in his days, And store of peace till no moon be. 8 And from the seas unto the seas, From flood to land-end reign shall be. 9 They that dwell in the wilderness Themselves before him bow they must; And they who are his enemies They verily shall lick the dust. 10 Upon him presents shall bestow Of Tarshish and the isles the kings; Sheba's, and Seba's kings also Shall unto him give offerings. 11 Yea unto him all kings shall fall, And serve him ev'ry nation. 12 For needy crying save he shall, The poor an helper that hath none. 13 The poor and needy spare shall he, The souls shall of the needy save. 14 Their souls from fraud and wrong set free By him shall they redemption have; Their blood shall be in his eyes dear. 15 And he shall live, and Sheba's gold They shall him give; still by him pray'r Shall be, and daily be extoll'd. 16 Of corn an handful shall be there I'th' land the mountains tops upon; Whose fruit in shaking shall appear Like as the trees of Lebanon: And who are of the city they Like grass on earth shall flourish all. 17 His name it shall endure for aye As long as sun continue shall. Ev'n so his name continue shall: And men in him themselves shall bless: And of the world the nations all Shall him the blessed one profess. 18 O let Jehovah blessed be. The God, the God of Israel, For by himself alone doth he Work things that wond'rous are to tell. 19 And blessed be his glorious name For ever, let the earth fill'd be Full with the glory of the same, Amen, also Amen say we. For Common Tunes: And aye be blest his glorious name Let all the earth fill'd be Likewise with glory of the same. Amen, Amen say we.

Let me, good God, my righteous suit obtain

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 72 Lyrics: 1 Let me, good God, my righteous suit obtain; Impartial o'er my people let me reign; And for my son (O hear a father's pray'r) Some portion of thy justice let him share; 2 By equal laws thy favour'd nations sway, Nor turn from pleading poverty away. 3 Then shall the hills exalt their heads in peace; The woods and plains shall heav'n-born justice bless. 4 With equity the injur'd let him hear, While hard oppressors his resentment fear. Safe let the poor to his protection fly, Assur'd, that he'll immediate aid supply: 5 That, while the beamy sun shall gild the day, And the pale moon mines forth with borrow'd ray, The ages yet to come may dread thy pow'r, Thy will revere, thy glorious name adore. 6 Down from above return the heav'n-born maid, And o'er the nations all her influence shed; As from thy goodness falls the fleecy rain, And spreads a glorious plenty o'er the plain. 7 His sceptre let the virtues all attend; Prove to the virtuous he a steady friend; Long let them flourish, while celestial peace Their souls with all her balmy sweets shall bless. 8 Extend his wide domains from sea to sea, While only earth's own bounds confine his sway. 9 Be his vast AEthiopias desart land; Own all his foes submissive his command; Bow at his awful feet, and grace implore, Their heads with humbling ashes cover'd o'er. 10 To him their gifts the world's high masters bring, Tarsus' proud prince, Arabia's haughty king; And all the monarchs of the isles, whose bounds Old ocean with his stormy floods surrounds. 11 'Fore him fall all that have imperial sway; Him all the nations of the globe obey. 12 May he the wretched in their mis'ries aid, 13 And free the poor, when cruel foes invade; 14 From fraud, from violence, their souls protect, And to their urgent plea have due respect. 15 Crown'd with bright glory, long may he survive, And Sheba's yellow tribute long receive; For him his people long put up their pray'rs, And bless the influence of his royal cares. 16 May e'en the desart hills their harvests yield, (Their sterile tops with golden plenty fill'd) The tow'ring corn it's waving ears shall shew, As high on Lebanon the cedars bow While o'er the city spreads a numerous race, As o'er the verdant plains the spiry grass. 17 Long may the glories of his name endure; His mem'ry last, till time itseif's no more; His people, blest in him, as he in them, Him equally their prince and father deem. 18 Praise, might and majesty, to Israel's God, Who sheds his gracious bounties, all abroad; 19 Eternal honours wait upon his name; Praise him, ye sons of men, with loud acclaim; O'er the wide world his glorious name be shewn, And fall the nations prostrate 'fore his throne.
