Psalm 85 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 43 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85:1-8 First Line: Lord, thou hast called thy grace to mind Lyrics: Lord, thou hast called thy grace to mind, Thou hast reversed our heavy doom; So God forgave when Isr'el sinned, And brought his wand'ring captives home. Thou hast begun to set us free, And made thy fiercest wrath abate; Now let our hearts be turned to thee, And thy salvation be complete. Revive our dying graces, Lord, And let thy saints in thee rejoice; Make known thy truth, fulfil thy word; We wait for praise to tune our voice. We wait to hear what God will say; He'll speak, and give his people peace; But let them run no more astray, Lest his returning wrath increase.

Psalm 85: O Lord, thou hast been favourable

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85 First Line: O Lord, thou hast been favourable Lyrics: 1O Lord, thou hast been favourable to thy beloved land: Jacob’s captivity thou hast recall’d with mighty hand. 2Thou pardoned thy people hast all their iniquities; Thou all their trespasses and sins hast cover’d from thine eyes. 3Thou took’st off all thine ire, and turn’dst from thy wrath’s furiousness. 4Turn us, God of our health, and cause thy wrath ‘gainst us to cease. 5Shall thy displeasure thus endure against us without end? Wilt thou to generations all thine anger forth extend? 6That in thee may thy people joy, wilt thou not us revive? 7Shew us thy mercy, Lord, to us do thy salvation give. 8I’ll hear what God the Lord will speak: to his folk he’ll speak peace, And to his saints; but let them not return to foolishness. 9To them that fear him surely near is his salvation; That glory in our land may have her habitation. 10Truth met with mercy, righteousness and peace kiss’d mutually: 11Truth springs from earth, and righteousness looks down from heaven high. 12Yea, what is good the Lord shall give; our land shall yield increase: 13Justice, to set us in his steps, shall go before his face.
