God's goodness to Travellers
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: With thanks unto the Lord confess Lyrics: 1 With thanks unto the Lord confess,
Because that good is he;
Because his loving kindnesses
Lasts to eternity.
2 So say the Lord's redeem'd whom bought
He hath from enemies hands;
3 And from the east and west hath brought
From south and northern lands.
4 In desart stray'd, in desart way
No dwelling town they find.
5 They hungry were, and thirsty they,
Their souls within them pin'd.
6 Then did they to Jehovah cry
When they were in distress;
Who did them set at liberty
Out of their anguishes.
7 In such a way as was most right,
He led them forth also;
That to a ciiy where they might
Inhabit they might go.
8 O that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then;
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men.
9 For he the soul that longing lies,
Doth th'roughly satisfy;
The hungry soul he fills likewise
With good abundantly.
[2]
10 Such as in darkness and within
The shade of death abide:
They who are sore afflictions in,
And fast in irons ty'd.
11 Because they in rebellion,
Against God's word did rise:
They also of the highest One
The counsel did despise.
12 Therefore with sore affliction
He did bring down their heart:
Down did they fall, and there was none
Could help to them impart.
13 Then did they to Jehovah cry,
When they were in distress?
Who did them set at liberty
Out of their anguishes.
14 He did them out of darkness bring,
Also from shade of death:
As for the bands that they were in,
He them quite broken hath.
15 O that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then:
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men!
16 For he did into shivers shake
The gates that were of brass:
And he the bar asunder brake
That made of iron was.
[3] To the Sick
17 Fools do for their iniquities
And sins, affliction bear.
18 Their soul abhors all meat likewise
They to death's gate draw near.
19 Then they unto Jehovah cry,
When they are in distress;
Who setteth them at liberty,
Out of their anguishes.
29 He did send out his word, and he
Unto them healing gave:
From out of their destruction free
He likewise did them save.
21 Oh that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then:
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men!
22 And of thanksgiving sacrifice
Let them their offerings bring:
While they his works declare likewise
Let them for gladness sing.
[4] To the Seafaring.
23 Who go to sea in ships, their acts
In waters great who do:
24 These do behold Jehovah's facts,
In deeps his wonders too.
25 For he commanded instantly
The stormy wind doth rise
Which lifts the waves thereof on high,
They mount up to the skies.
26 Down to the depths again they strike,
Their soul doth melt with ill.
27 They reel and stagger drunkard like,
And fail them doth their skill.
28 Then do they to Jehovah cry,
In their extream distress:
And he them bringeth speedily
Out of their anguishes.
29 He makes the storm a calm, that so
The waves thereof are quiet;
30 They're glad with rest, he brings them to
The haven they desir'd.
31 Oh that men praise Jehovah would
For his great goodness then,
And for his wonders manifold
Unto the sons of men.
32 Within the congregation great
Him let them highly praise:
[5] To Planters
33 He turns streams to a desart land:
To drought the springing well.
34 To barrenness a fruitful land
For their sins there who dwell.
35 He makes the wilderness a pool
Dry ground turns to a spring.
36 Seats there the hungry where they build
Their town of habiting.
37 They vineyards there do plant and dress
They likewise sow their fields:
Which unto them their fruitfulness
With much revenue yields.
38 Yea so he blessed them that they
Did greatly multiply
Nor yet their cattle suffer'd he
To lessen or decay.
39 Again they are diminished,
And also bowed down;
By tyranny impov'rished,
And by affliction.
40 On princes pour contempt doth he,
And causeth them to stray:
Where solitary desarts be,
Wherein there is no way.
41 But from affliction he on high
The needy makes to rise;
And like a flock doth multiply
And make him families,
42 The righteous ones behold it shall
And they shall joyful be;
And bridle up their mouth shall all
That work iniquity.
43 Whoso is wise and will with care
These things observing learn:
Jehovah's mercies what they are,
They clearly shall discern.

Psalm 107:1-9, 17-37, 43 (A Responsorial Setting)
For ever lasts the mercy of the Lord
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 107 Lyrics: 1 For ever lasts the mercy of the Lord;
His name in pious anthems be ador'd;
2 Yes; praise him, all, who from th' oppressor's chain
Have ask'd redemption, and not ask'd in vain.
Whom, when with cruel hate their foes distrest,
His gracious goodness with deliv'rance blest.
3 From all the various corners of the earth
With his directing hand he led them forth;
4 Long in the lonely desart did they roam,
Nor knew the path to their appointed home;
5 Fainting with thirst, quite destitute of food,
What complicated woes their steps pursued?
The desart wilds no kind repast supplied;
To slake their thirst, the cooling stream denied.
6 'Twas in this sore distress to heav'n they pray'd,
And heav'n in mercy hasten'd to their aid;
7 Led them the way to opulence and peace,
And gave them lands and cities to possess.
8 Then let them sing their good, their gracious God,
And publish his beneficence abroad:
9 For food he gives, and all our griefs controuls,
Strengthens our limbs, and satisfies our souls.
10 Who, vain, rejected dread Jehovah's law,
Nor heard his word with reverential awe,
11 When in the confines of the grave they lay,
O'erwhelm'd in darkness, sunk in dire dismay;
12 When ills incessant wrung their hearts with pain,
And death came stalking with his meagre train;
13 In their distress to heav'n they earnest pray'd,
And heav'n in mercy hasten'd to their aid;
14 Bad all the terrors of their souls to cease,
Broke off their fetters, and restor'd their peace.
15 Then let them sing their good, their gracious God,
And publish his beneficence abroad;
16 He to the captive liberty ensures,
Unbinds his chains, and breaks the prison-doors.
17 By lures of sense when men are led astray,
And the foul dictates of their lust obey,
They feel th' inflictions of his heavy wrath;
Some dire distemper draws them nigh to death:
They relish now their luxuries no more;
And loath the dear-bought cates they priz'd before.
19 But if in their distress to heav'n they pray,
His mercy drives the foul disease away,
20 Heals all their pains, bids new-born vigour rise,
And firms their souls--the dreaded spectre flies,
21 Let such sing then the goodness of their God,
And publish his beneficence abroad;
22 With victims croud his sacred courts, and sing
Glad hymns of praise to their all-clement king.
23 Who plough the surface of the raging main,
And dare the fury of her waves for gain,
24 To them his dread tremendous works appear;
They view his wonders in the deep with fear.
25 At his command the stormy winds arise,
And raise her foamy billows to the skies:
26 High as the heav'ns his waves old ocean rears;
Aloft they mount, and seem to threat the stars;
Then sudden to the depths below subside,
And in the horrible abyss are hid.
27 What terrors then the mariners assail,
What killing fears o'er their sad hearts prevail,
When, like a wretch o'erpower'd with wine, they reel,
And the tost vessel mocks the master's skill?
28 But, if to heav'n in their distress they pray,
He drives their dangers and their fears away,
29 Calls off his winds, and strait allays the storm;
Still are th' obedient waves; the sea grows calm;
30 The mariners rejoice, their terrors o'er,
And the torn bark scuds swiftly to the shore.
31 Let such sing then their good, their gracious God,
And publish his beneficence abroad.
32 Yes; all ye people, all, his pow'r proclaim,
And in the great assemblies hail his name;
33 'Tis he forbids the flood t' enrich the lands,
And turns the living springs to barren sands;
34 'Tis he, when rages wickedness around,
Curses with quick sterility the ground;
35 He too the desart wilds with water fills,
And blesses thirsty soils with fruitful rills;
No more their wonted barrenness they mourn,
But soon look gay with herbage, fruits and corn,
36 These to industrious poverty he gives;
The colony, by him supported, thrives;
Their wives, their infants, strong-built towns defend;
37 Their tilth with joy the painful farmers tend;
They sow the grain, they plant the fruitful vine,
That oon repays their toil with gen'rous wine.
38 Their God looks o'er them with protectful eye,
Hears all their pray'rs, does ev'ry want supply;
With a fair off-spring crowns their chaste embrace,
And gives of cattle the desir'd increase.
39 But, when, elated with their prosp'rous fate,
The mercies of the donor they forget,
They heav'ns beneficence no more engage,
But feel the fury of almighty rage:
40 He gives them up to tyranny a prey,
They soon some proud imperious prince obey;
Their prince and they are equally a scorn
To realms around, and their contempt they mourn;
Stript of their wealth, they roam wild desarts o'er,
Where human feet have never trod before.
41 Yet still the humble and the modest mind
A sure protection in his love shall find;
Secure from ills, by him they're set on high,
Rewarded with a num'rous progeny.
42 This view the righteous, and sincere rejoice,
And to his glory tune the grateful voice;
While impious sinners sullenly repine,
And mock in gloomy silence truth divine.
43 Whoe'er is wise, and on the blest effects
Of heav'n's high justice seriously reflects,
Will know, and own, that mercy, truth and love,
Pertain to him alone, who rules above.
For ever lasts the mercy of the Lord

Give God the glory, I say so! Used With Tune: [Let the redeemed of the Lord say so]

Who O'er The Waves From Shore To Shore
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 107 First Line: Who o’er the waves from shore to shore Lyrics:
1 Who o’er the waves from shore to shore
The gifts of commerce bear,
The wonders of the deep explore,
And own that God is there.
2 By these His works are seen; His ways
By these are understood;
He speaks the word; the storm obeys,
And rising lifts the flood.
3 Distressed, to God they make their prayer;
Obedient to His will,
The storms that raged their rage forbear,
The seas that roared are still.
4 Each grief, each fear, at once resigned,
They see their labor o’er.
Then, led by Him, their haven find,
And touch the wished for shore.
5 O then, that all would bless His name,
Whose mercy thus they prove,
And pleased from age to age proclaim,
The wonders of His love!

now may Israel truly say;
through great trials God has brought us
to the dawn of this new day.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
2 When God's people walked the desert,
hungry, thirsty, faint of heart,
God prepared for them a city,
gave them hope and took their part.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
3 Those who steer their ships through trouble,
ride the storm and plumb the deep,
reach at length their promised haven,
bless that grace which brings them sleep.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
4 Oh give thanks for all God's mercies:
fields are watered, crops are sown,
sheep and cattle fill the pastures,
babes in arms have safely grown.
All God's children,
praise the wonders God has done.
