Behold, O God, what cruel foes

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 79 Lyrics: 1 Behold, O God, what cruel foes, Thy peaceful heritage invade; Thy holy temple stands defil'd, In dust thy sacred walls are laid. 2 Wise o'er the valleys, drench'd in blood, Thy people fall'n in death remain; The fowls of heav'n their flesh devour, And savage beasts divide the slain. 3 The insulting foes, with impious rage, Reproach thy children to their face; "Where is your God of boasted pow'r, And where the promise of his grace." 4 Deep from the prison's horrid glooms, Oh hear the mournful captive sigh, And let thy sov'reign pow'r reprieve, The trembling souls condemn'd to die. 5 Let those, who dar'd insult thy reign, Return dismay'd with endless shame, While heathens, who by thy grace despise Shall from thy vengeance learn thy name. 6 So shall thy children, freed from death, Eternal songs of honour raise, And ev'ry future age shall tell, Thy sov'reign pow'r and pard'ning grace.

In Your Heritage the Nations

Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Appears in 7 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 79 Lyrics: 1 In your heritage the nations now, O God, rebellious stand; they defile your holy temple, they destroy your chosen land. Ruthless, they have slain your servants, they have caused your saints to mourn; in the sight of all about us we endure reproach and scorn. 2 O how long against your people will your anger burn, O LORD? On your enemies, the heathen, let your anger, LORD, be poured. Smite the kingdoms that defy you, that do not call on your name. They have long devoured your people and destroyed your land with flame. 3 O remember not against us evil by our fathers done. LORD, deliver in your mercy; near to ruin we have come. Help us, God of our salvation, for the glory of your name. Why should nations shout defiance? Take away our sin and shame. 4 Let the nations know our Savior will avenge his servants slain. Loose the prisoner, save the dying, all your enemies restrain. Then your flock, your chosen people, songs of thankfulness will raise; and, to every generation, we will sing your glorious praise.

Lord, while their darts envenomed they are hurling, Thou canst preserve us. 3 Lord, Thou canst help when earthly armor faileth; Lord, Thou canst save when deadly sin assaileth; Lord, o'er Thy Church nor death nor hell prevaileth; Grant us Thy peace, Lord: 4 Peace in our hearts, our evil thoughts assuaging; Peace in Thy Church where brothers are engaging; Peace when the world its busy war is waging. Calm Thy foes' raging. 5 Grant us Thy help till backward they are driven; Grant them Thy truth that they may be forgiven; Grant peace on earth or, after we have striven, Peace in Thy heaven. Amen.

Behold, O God, how heathen Hosts

Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 79 Lyrics: 1 Behold, O God, how heathen Hosts have thy Possession seiz'd! Thy sacred House they have defil'd, thy holy City raz'd! 2 The mangled Bodies of thy Saints, abroad unburied lay; Their Flesh expos'd to savage Beasts, and rav'nous Birds of Prey. 3 Quite thro' Jerus'lem was their Blood like common Water shed; And none were left alive to pay last Duties to the Dead. 4 The neighb'ring Lands our small Remains with loud Reproaches wound; And we a laughing Stock are made to all the Nations round. 5 How long wilt thou be angry, Lord, must we for ever mourn; Shall thy devouring jealous Rage, like Fire for ever burn? 6 On foreign Lands that know not Thee, thy heavy Vengeance show'r; Those sinful Kingdoms let it crush, that have not own'd thy Pow'r. 7 For their devouring jaws have prey'd on Jacob's chosen Race; And to a barren Desart turn'd their fruitful Dwelling-place. 8 O think not on our former Sins, but speedily prevent The utter Ruin of thy Saints, almost with Sorrow spent. 9 Thou God of our Salvation, help, and free our souls from blame; So shall our Pardon and Defence exalt thy glorious Name. 10 Let Infidels, that scoffing say, "Where is the God they boast?" In Vengeance for thy slaughter'd Saints, perceive thee to their Cost. 11 lord, hear the sighing Pris'ners Moans, thy saving Pow'r extend; Preserve the Wretches doom'd to die, from that untimely End. 12 On them, who us oppress, let all our Suff'ring's be repaid; Make their Confusion seven times more than what on us they laid. 13 So we thy People and thy Flock, shall ever praise thy Name; And with glad Hearts our grateful Thanks from Age to Age proclaim.

A Psalm of Asaph

Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 79 First Line: Behold, O God, how heathen foes Lyrics: 1 Behold, O GOD, how heathen foes Thine heritage invade; Defile thy holy house; in heaps Jerusalem have laid. 2 Thy servants bodies lying dead, they cast forth to be meat To rav'nous fowls; and thy siants flesh to savage beasts to eat. 3 Like water they pour'd out their blood about Jerusalem; Their mangled bodies lay abroad, and none to bury them. 4 We are become a vile reproach to all our neighbours near; Yea a derision and a scoff to all who round us are. 5 How long, O LORD? For evermore shall thus thine anger last? How long thy burning jealousy like fire go on and waste? 6 Thy wrath on heathens Thou wilt pour, who own Thee not at all; And on the kingdoms round who on thy name refuse to call. 7 For they have cruelly devour'd thy servant Jacob's race; And have with fire and sword laid waste his pleasant dwelling place. [2 Part] 8 Mind not against us former sins; thy tender mercies show: Let them prevent us speedily; for we're brought very low. 9 Help, for the glory of thy Name, our Saviour God, this day; For thy Name sake deliver us, and purge our sins away. 10 Why say the heathen, where's your GOD? before us they shall see, When thy dear servants blood they shed shall be reveng'd by Thee. 11 O let the captives sighs ascend before thy face on high; And let thy mighty arm preserve those who are doom'd to die. 12 But to our neighbour's bosom Thou wilt seven-fold repay, For their reproach wherewith, O Lord, reproached Thee have they. 13 So we thy people and thy flock, will ever bless thy name; And from our grateful hearts thy praise from age to age proclaim.

The heathen hosts, O God

Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 79 Lyrics: 1 The Heathen Hosts, O GOD! Have thy Possession seiz'd; Thy sacred House defil'd, Thy holy City raz'd. The Bodies of thy Saints, Abroad unburied lay; Their Flesh expos'd to Beasts, Or rav'nous Birds a Prey. 2 Their Blood, like Water, was Around Jerus'lem shed; And none were left to pay The Duties to the Dead: The Foe our small Remains With loud Reproaches wound; And are made the Sport Of all the Nations round. 3 How long wilt thou be wrathj? LORD, must we ever mourn? And shall thy jealous Rage, Like Fire for ever burn?

Thy saving Pow'r extend; Preserve them, doom'd to die, From their untimely End! Those who blaspheme thy Name, Do thou, O GOD, destroy; Against the Nations round, Resistless Pow'r employ. 7 For they have us opprest; Then let them be repaid, With Sorrows sev'n Times more Than what on us they laid. So we thy humble Flock, Shall ever praise thy Name; And our unwearied Thanks, From Age to Age proclaim.

Deus venurunt

Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 79 First Line: O God the Gentiles do invade Lyrics: 1 O God the Gentiles do invade thine heritage to spoile: Jerusalem an heape is made, thy Temple they defile. 2 The bodies of thy Saints most deare abroad to birds they cast: The flesh of them that do thee feare, the beasts devoure and wast. 3 Their blood throughout Jerusalem, as water spilt they have: So that there is not one of them to lay their dead in grave. 4 Thus are we made a laughing stock, almost the world throughout: The enemies at us jest and mock which dwell our coasts about. 5 Wilt thou (O Lord) this in thine ire against us over fume, And shew thy wrath as hot as fire, thy folk for to consume? 6 Upon those people powre the same, which did thee never know: All Realmes which call not on thy Name, consume and overthrow. 7 For they have got the upper hand, and Jacob's seed destroid: His habitation and his land, they have laid wast and void. 8 Beare not in mind our former faults, with speed some pitie show: And aid us, Lord, in our assaults, for we are weake and low. The second Part: 9 O God, that giv'st all health and grace on us declare the same: Weigh not our works, our sins edeface, for honour of thy Name. 10 Why shall the wicked still alway, to us as people dumbe, In thy reproach rejoyce and say, Where is their God become! Requite (O Lord) as thou seest good, before our eyes in sight, Of all these folk; thy servants blood, which they spilt in despight. 11 Receive into thy sight in haste, the clamours, griefe and wrong, Of such as are in prison cast, sustaining irons strong. Thy force and strength to celebrate, Lord set them out of band, Who unto death are destinate, and in their enemies hand. 12 The nations which have been so bold as to blaspheme thy Name: Into their laps do thou seven-fold repay again the same. 13 So we thy flock and pasture sheep will praise thee evermore: And teach all ages for to keep for thee like praise in store.
