Psalm 4

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.9 (1806) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Hearing of prayer and salvation First Line: O God of grace and righteousness Lyrics: O God of grace and righteousness, Hear and attend when I complain; Thou hast enlarged me in distress, Bow down a gracious ear again. Ye sons of men, in vain ye try To turn my glory into shame; How long will scoffers love to lie, And dare reproach my Savior's name? Know that the Lord divides his saints From all the tribes of men beside; He hears the cry of penitents, For the dear sake of Christ that died. When our obedient bands have done A thousand works of righteousness, We put our trust in God alone, And glory in his pardoning grace. Let the unthinking many say, "Who will bestow some earthly good?" But, Lord, thy light and love we pray; Our souls desire this heav'nly food. Then shall my cheerful powers rejoice, At grace and favors so divine; Nor will I change my happy choice For all their corn, and all their wine. Scripture: Psalm 4 Languages: English

By nature dumb to speak Thy praise, My carnal tongue doth fail to raise A song of adoration. Heal Thou me now, blest Physician, In contrition I beseech Thee, Let my prayer and pleading reach Thee. 2 I thank Thee, dear Redeemer mine, That Thou in love and power divine Thy healing word hast spoken. Thy Word indeed doth balm afford, And Thy forgiveness, dearest Lord, The power of sin hath broken. Thy Word, dear Lord, still endureth, And assureth Me, O Saviour, Of Thy everlasting favor. 3 Indeed Thou doest all things well, Incarnate God, Immanuel, Thou promised Saviour, Jesus. My ears can hear Thy Word divine. Which healeth all diseases. Till I sing Thy praise in glory, Let the story Of salvation Be my theme of adoration. Amen.

Psalm 10

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.21 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Hearing of prayer and salvation First Line: Why doth the Lord stand off so far? Lyrics: Why doth the Lord stand off so far? And why conceal his face, When great calamities appear, And times of deep distress? Lord, shall the wicked still deride Thy justice and thy power? Shall they advance their heads in pride, And still thy saints devour? They put thy judgments from their sight, And then insult the poor; They boast in their exalted height, That they shall fall no more. Arise, O God, lift up thine hand, Attend our humble cry; No enemy shall dare to stand When God ascends on high. Why do the men of malice rage, And say, with foolish pride, "The God of heav'n will ne'er engage To fight on Zion's side?" But thou for ever art our Lord; And powerful is thine hand, As when the heathens felt thy sword, And perished from thy land. Thou wilt prepare our hearts to pray, And cause thine ear to hear; He hearkens what his children say, And puts the world in fear. Proud tyrants shall no more oppress, No more despise the just; And mighty sinners shall confess They are but earth and dust. Scripture: Psalm 10 Languages: English
