A sacrifice was slain.

And ransomed us to God,
From every nation, every coast,
By Thy most precious blood.

According to my righteousness
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 20 According to my righteousness
he did me recompense;
he me repaid according to
my hands’ pure innocence.
21 For I the Lord’s ways kept, nor from
my God turned wickedly.
22 His judgments were before me, I
his laws put not from me.
23 Sincere before him was my heart,
upright with him was I;
and watchfully I kept myself
from mine iniquity.
24 According to my righteousness
the Lord did me requite;
after the cleanness of my hands
appearing in his sight.
25 Thou to the gracious showest grace,
to just men just thou art;
26 pure to the pure, but froward still
to men of froward heart.
27 For thou wilt the afflicted save
in grief that low do lie;
but wilt bring down the countenance
of those whose looks are high.
28 For thou thyself wilt light my lamp,
that it shall shine full bright:
The Lord my God will also make
my darkness to be light.
29 By thee through troops of men I break,
and them discomfit all;
and, by my God assisting me,
I overleap a wall.
30 As for God, perfect is his way,
Jehovah's word is tried;
he is a buckler to all those
who do in him confide.
31 Who but the Lord is God? but he
who is a rock and stay?
32 ’Tis God that girdeth me with strength,
and perfect makes my way.
33 He made my feet swift as the hinds',
on my heights made me stand;
34 my hands he taught to war, my arms
a bow of brass did bend.
35 The shield of thy salvation thou
upon me didst bestow:
thy right hand held me up, and great
thy kindness made me grow.
36 And in my way my steps thou hast
enlarged under me,
that I go safely, and my feet
are kept from sliding free.
37 Mine enemies I did pursue,
and them did overtake;
nor did I turn again till I
an end of them did make.
38 I wounded them, they could not rise;
they at my feet did fall.
39 Thou girdedst me with strength for war;
my foes thou brought’st down all:
40 and thou hast given to me the necks
of all mine enemies,
that I might utterly destroy
those who against me rise.
41 They in their trouble cried for help,
but there was none to save;
yea, they did cry unto the Lord,
but he no answer gave.
42 Then did I beat them small as dust
before the wind that flies;
and I did cast them out like dirt
upon the street that lies.
43 Thou mad’st me free from people’s strife,
the heathen’s head to be:
a people whom I have not known
shall service do to me.
44 At hearing they shall me obey,
to me they shall submit.
45 Strangers for fear shall fade away
who in their strongholds sit.

According to my righteousness
Thee will I praise with my whole heart
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 11 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Thee will I praise with all my heart,
I will sing praise to thee
2 before the gods: and worship will
toward thy sanctuary.
I’ll praise thy name, even for thy truth,
and kindness of thy love;
for thou thy word hast magnified
all thy great name above.
3 Thou didst me answer in the day
when I did cry to thee;
and thou with strength my fainting soul
didst strengthen inwardly.
4 All kings upon the earth that are
shall give thee praise, O Lord:
what time they from thy mouth shall hear
thy true and faithful word.
5 Yea, in the righteous ways of God
with gladness they shall sing:
for great’s the glory of the Lord;
who is for ever king.
6 The Lord high, yet he regards
all those that lowly be;
whereas the proud and lofty ones
afar off knoweth he.
7 Though I in midst of trouble walk,
I life from thee shall have:
’gainst my foes’ wrath thou’lt stretch thine hand;
thy right hand shall me save.
8 All that which me concerns the Lord
will surely perfect make:
Lord, still thy mercy lasts; do not
thine own hands’ works forsake. Scripture: Psalm 138 Used With Tune: BEDFORD (1st form)
Thee will I praise with my whole heart
How wretched was our former state
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 How wretched was our former state,
when, slaves to Satan’s sway,
with hearts disorder'd and impure,
o’erwhelmed in sin we lay!
2 But, O my soul! for ever praise,
for ever love his name,
who turn'd thee from the fatal paths
of folly, sin, and shame.
3 Vain and presumptuous is the trust
which in our works we place,
salvation from a higher source
flows to the human race.
4 ’Tis from the mercy of our God
that all our hopes begin;
his mercy sav'd our souls from death,
and wash'd our souls from sin.
5 His Spirit, through the Saviour shed,
its sacred fire imparts,
refines our dross, and love divine
rekindles in our hearts.
6 Thence rais'd from death, we live anew;
and, justify'd by grace,
we hope in glory to appear,
and see our Father’s face.
7 Let all who hold this faith and hope
in holy deeds abound;
thus faith approves itself sincere,
by active virtue crown'd. Scripture: Titus 3:3-9 Used With Tune: BEDFORD (1st form)

Prayer is the soul's sincere desire
Author: James Montgomery, 1771-1854 Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 849 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Prayer is the soul's sincere desire,
uttered or unexpressed;
the motion of a hidden fire
that trembles in the breast.
2 Prayer is the burden of a sigh,
the falling of a tear,
the upward glancing of an eye
when none but God is near.
3 Prayer is the simplest form of speech
that infant lips can try;
prayer the sublimest strains that reach
the majesty on high.
4 Prayer is the contrite sinner's voice,
returning from his ways,
while angels in their songs rejoice,
and cry: behold he prays!
5 Prayer is the Christian's vital breath,
the Christian's native air,
his watchword at the gates of death:
he enters heaven with prayer.
6 O thou by whom we come to God,
the Life, the Truth, the Way!
The path of prayer thyself hast trod:
Lord! Teach us how to pray.! Topics: General Hymns Prayer and Penitence Scripture: Luke 18:1 Used With Tune: BEDFORD (Isometric)
Prayer is the soul's sincere desire

The Ten Commandments
Appears in 3 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 First Line: God spake these Words, O Isr'el, hear Lyrics: 1 GOD spake these Words, O Isr'el, hear,
What I shall now command;
Thy LORD and only GOD am I,
Who with Almighty Hand
2 From Egy't's Land, and from the House
OfBondag set thee free;
And therefore, Isr'el, thou shlat hve
No other Gods but me.
II
3 Thou shalt no graven Image make,
Nor Likeness shalt thou feign,
Of any Thing that Heav'n or Earth,
Or watry Deeps contain.
4 Thou shalt not bow thyself to them,
Nor outward Worship pay;
Much less shalt thou in Heart adore,
And to an Idol pray.
5 For I, thy GOD, a jealous GOD,
The Father's Sins chastise,
To third and fourth Descent, of all
Who are my Enemies.
6 But Mercy do to Thousands shew,
And bounteously repay,
All those who me sincerely love,
And my Commands obey.

Thou never shalt profane;
For GOD will them not guiltless hold,
Who take his Name in vain.

8 Remember thou the Sabbath-Day
To keep with holy Care;
Six Days for Labour thou shalt take;
The seventh shalt revere.
9 The LORD thy GOD the seventh Day
His Sabbath doth ordain;
In which thou shalt from ev'ry Kind
Of worldly Work refrain.
10 Thyself, thy Children, Servants then
From Labour shall be free;
Thy Cattle, and the Stranger whom
Thou tak'st to dwell with thee.
11 For GOD thy LORD was pleas'd the Space
Of six whole Days to take,
The Heav'ns, the Earth and Seas, and all
Therein contain'd, to make;
12 But rested on the seventh Day,
Which for that Case he bless'd,
And sanctifi'd it to be kpet
A Day of holy Rest.

Both long and happy live,
In that bless'd Land, which GOD thy LORD
Did for thy Dwelling give.

To Life would hurtful prove;
To all Mankind thou shalt perform
The Offices of Love.
VII

But keep thee chaste and clean;
The Temples of the LORD must not
Defiled be with Sin.
VIII
16 Thou shalt not steal; detest all Fraud,
And never seek by Wrong
To take unto thyself, what to
Another doth belong.
IX
17 False Witness thou shalt never bear,
Against another's Name.
Hate Lies, love Truth, thou shalt defend,
Thy Neighbour's honest Fame.
X
18 Thou shalt not covet House, or Wife,
Or Man, or Maid of his,
Or Ox, or Ass, or aught whereof
He rightful Owner is.

With Diligence and Care to keep
Those righteous Laws of thine. Scripture: Exodus 20:1-17 Used With Tune: [God spake these Words, O Isr'el, hear]
