O LORD I have heard thy speech, and | wasa | fraid :

O Lord, revive thy work in the | mi—dst | of— the

years,

In the midst of the years-make | known;
In | wrath-re | mem―ber | mercy.

God came from | Teman,

And the Holy-One | from-mount | Paran. His glory covered-the | heavens,

And the earth-was | full of-his praise.

And his brightness was | as-the | light;
He had horns coming out of his hand: and
there was the | hid-ing | of-his | power.
Before him went-the pestilence,

And burning coals-went | forth at-his |

feet.

He stood, and measured the earth; he beheld, and drove a sunder-the | nations;

And the ever last-ing | mountains-were | scattered,

The perpetual | hills-did | bow:
His ways-are | ev-er | lasting.

The mountains saw thee, and-they trembled:
The overflowing of the

by:

wa-ter pass-ed |

The deep uttered-his voice,

And lifted | up-his | hands-on | high.

The sun and moon

Stood still-in their | ha-bi | tation:
At the light of thine | arrows-they went,
And at the shining-of thy | glitter-ing |

spear.

Although the fig tree | shall-not | blossom,
Neither shall fruit-be | in-the vines;
The labour of the olive-shall | fail,
I

And the fields-shall | yield—no | meat;

The flock shall be cut off from-the | fold, And there shall be no | he-rd | in-the | stalls: Yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will joy in the God of my-sal | vation.

The Lord-God | is-my | strength.

IT is of the Lord's mercies that we are | notconsumed,

Because his-com | pas-sions | fail not.
They are new-every morning:

Great is thy | faith-ful | ness.

The Lord is my portion, | saith-my | soul;
Therefore will-I | hope-in | him.

The Lord is good unto them that | wait | for him,

To the soul-that | seek-eth | him.

It is good-that a | man

Should both hope and quietly wait for the sal | va-tion of the | Lord.

[ocr errors]

It is good-for a | man

That he bear-the | yoke-in his | youth.

For the Lord will not cast | off—for | ever; But though he cause grief, yet will he have compassion according to the multi-tude | of his mercies.

[ocr errors]

For he doth not af | fli-ct | willingly,
Nor grieve the children-of men.

Out of the mouth of the most High proceedeth not evil-and good?

Wherefore doth a living man complain, a man for the punish-ment | of-his sins?

Let us search and try our ways, and turn again to-the | Lord.

Let us lift up our heart with our hands unto | Go-din-the heavens.

Thou hast heard-my voice:

Hide not thine ear at my breath-ing, | atmy cry.

Thou drewest near in the day that I | calledupon thee:

Thou said-st | fear not.

O Lord, thou hast pleaded the cause | of—my |

soul;

Thou hast-re | deemed-my | life.

O Lord, thou hast | seen-my | wrong;
Tudge th-ou | m-y | cause,

5.

HO, every one that thirsteth, come ye|to—

the waters,

And he that hath no money; | come―ye, | buy-and eat;

Yea, come, buy | wine-and milk

Without money—and | with-out | price.
Incline your ear, and come | un-to | me :
Hear, and-your soul-shall | live;
And I will make an everlasting | cove-nant |
with you,

Even the su-re | mercies- of | David.

Seek ye the Lord while he | may-be | found;
Call ye upon him—while | he-is | near:
Let the wicked for | sake-his way,

And the unrighteous | man-his | thoughts:
And let him return | unto-the | Lord,
And he will-have mercy-up | on him:
And to our | God,

For he | will-a | bundant-ly | pardon.

For my thoughts are not-your thoughts, Neither are your ways | my-ways, | saith-the | Lord.

For as the heavens are higher | than—the | earth, So are my ways higher than your ways, and my-thoughts than your thoughts.

For ye shall go out-with | joy, |

And be le-d | forth-with peace:

The mountains and the hills shall break forth before you in-to singing,

[ocr errors]

And all the trees of the field-shall | claptheir hands.

Holy, Holy, Holy! | merciful-and | mighty,
Jehovah! Fa-ther of-e | ternity.

Holy, Holy, Holy! all the saints-a | dore thee,

Casting down their golden crowns a roundthe glass-y sea;

Cherubim and seraphim falling | down-be | fore thee,

Holy, Holy, Holy! though the dark--ness | hide thee,

Though the eye of sinful man thy | glo―ry | may-not

Only thou art holy, there is none-beside | thee,

Perfect in power,-in | love,—and | purity.

Holy, Holy, Holy!

Jehovah; Father of-eternity!
