A Psalm for the Sons of Korah
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85 First Line: Lord, thou didst signal favors show Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thou didst signal favours show,
to thine afflicted land;
Jacob's captivity Thou didst,
bring back with mighty hand.
2 Yea Thou thy people didst forgive,
their great iniquities;
And all their aggravated sins
didst cover from thine eyes. (Selah)
3 Thou all thine anger didst withdraw,
which on them heavy lay;
And from the fierceness of thy wrath,
didst wholly turn away.
4 O God of our salvation, now
return us by thy grace;
And tow'rds us thy displeasure sore,
O cause Thou quite to cease.
5 Or shall thine anger thus endure,
against us without end?
And ev'n to generations all,
wilt Thou thy wrath extend?
6 O wilt thou not return again,
and us revive, that we
Thy saved people greatly may,
rejoyce again in Thee?
7 O great JEHOVAH now to us,
thy tender mercy show;
And thy salvation as a gift
of grace, on us bestow.
[2 Part]
8 I'll hear what God the LORD will speak:
speak to his people peace,
And to his saints; but let not them
return to foolishness.
9 Sure, his salvation now is nigh,
to them who Him revere;
That glory may adorn our land,
and happily dwell here.
10 Mercy and truth have sweet access,
and with great pleasure meet;
And perfect righteousness and peace,
with mutual kisses greet.
11 Truth and uprightness on the earth,
out of men's hearts, shall spring;
And righteousness from heav'n look down,
descend and blessings bring,
12 Yea ev'ry good thing will the LORD
give to us bounteously;
And then our land shall her increase,
yield with a rich supply.
13 Before Him righteousness shall go,
and all his paths prepare;
And in the way his steps will guide,
and place with happy care.
A Psalm for the Sons of Korah
Benedixisti
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85 First Line: Thou hast been mercifull indeed Lyrics: 1 Thou hast been mercifull indeed,
O Lord, unto thy land:
For thou restoredst Jacob's seed,
from thraldom by strong hand.
2 The wicked waies that they were in,
thou didst them cleane remit:
And thou didst hide thy peoples sin,
full close thou coverdst it.
3 Thine anger eke didst asswage,
that all thy wrath was gone:
And so didst turn thee from thy rage,
with them to be at one.
4 O God our health do now convert
thy people unto thee:
Put all thy wrath from us apart,
and angry cease to be.
5 Why shall thine anger never end,
but still proceed on us?
And shall thy wrath it selfe extend
upon all ages thus?
6 Wilt thou not rather turn therefore,
and quicken us that we.
And all thy folk may evermore
be glad and joy in thee?
7 O Lord on us do thou declare
thy goodnesse to our wealth:
Shew forth to us, and do not spare
thine aid and saving health.
8 I will heark what God saith, for he
speaks to his people peace,
And to his Saints, that never they
returne to foolishnesse.
9 For why? his help is still at hand,
to such as do him feare:
Whereby great glory in our land
shall dwell and flourish there.
10 For truth and mercy there shall meet,
in one to take their place:
And peace shall justice with kisse greet,
and there they shall embrace.
11 As truth from earth shall spring apace
and flourish pleasantly:
So righteousnesse shall shew her face,
and look from heaven high.
12 Yea God himselfe doth take in hand
to give us each good thing:
And through the coasts of all the land,
the earth her fruit shall bring.
13 Before his face shall justice go,
much like a guide or stay:
He shall direct his steps also,
and keep them in the way.
Benedixisti
My Country, 'Tis of Thee
Author: Samuel F. Smith Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Appears in 1,945 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85:1 Lyrics: 1 My country, 'tis of thee,
Sweet land of liberty,
Of thee I sing;
Land where my fathers died,
Land of the pilgrims' pride,
From every mountainside
Let freedom ring.
2 My native country, thee,
Land of the noble free,
Thy name I love;
I love thy rocks and rills;
Thy woods and templed hills;
My heart with rapture thrills
Like that above.
3 Let music swell the breeze,
And ring from all the trees
Sweet freedom's song;
Let mortal tongues awake;
Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.
4 Our fathers' God, to Thee,
Author of liberty,
To Thee we sing;
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by Thy might,
Great God, our King.

There's a Voice in the Wilderness
Author: James Lewis Milligan (1876-1961) Meter: Irregular Appears in 24 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85 First Line: There's a voice in the wilderness crying Lyrics: 1 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying,
a call from the ways untrod:
prepare in the desert a highway,
a highway for our God!
The valleys shall be exalted,
the lofty hills brought low;
make straight all the crooked places,
where the Lord our God may go!
2 O Zion, give voice to good tidings,
ascend to the heights and sing!
Proclaim to a desolate people
the coming of their King.
The works of pride all perish,
like flowers they shall decay;
the power and pomp of nations
shall pass like a dream away.
3 But your word, O God, is faithful,
your arm, O Lord, is strong;
you stand in the midst of nations,
and you will right the wrong.
You will feed your flock like a shepherd,
and fold the lambs to your breast;
in pastures of peace you’ll lead them,
and give to the weary rest.
4 There’s a voice in the wilderness crying,
a call from the ways untrod:
prepare in the desert a highway,
a highway for our God!
The valleys shall be exalted,
the lofty hills brought low;
make straight all the crooked places,
where the Lord our God may go! Topics: Advent; John, the Baptist Used With Tune: ASCENSION

O breath of God, breathe on us now
Author: Alfred Henry Vine, 1845-1917 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 18 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 85:1-8 Lyrics: 1 O breath of God, breathe on us now
and move within us while we pray;
you are the spring of our new life,
the very light of our new day.
2 How strangely you are with us, Lord,
neither in height nor depth to seek:
in nearness shall your voice be heard;
spirit to spirit you will speak.
3 Christ is our advocate on high;
you are our advocate within:
O plead the truth, and make reply
to every argument of sin.
4 But what a faithless heart of mine:
the way I know, I know my guide:
forgive me, O my friend divine,
that I so often turn aside.
5 Be with me when no other friend
the mystery of my heart can share;
be always known, when fears descend,
by your best name of Comforter.
