I waited for the Lord most high
Meter: 8.8.8.6.8.6 Appears in 6 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I waited for the Lord most high,
And he inclined to hear my cry;
He took me from destruction's pit
And from the miry clay;
Upon a rock he set my feet,
And stedfast made my way.
2 A new and joyful song of praise
He taught my thankful heart to raise;
And many, seeing me restored,
Shall fear the Lord and trust;
And blest are they that trust the Lord,
The humble and the just.
3 O Lord my God, how manifold
Thy wondrous works which I behold,
And all thy loving, gracious thought
Thou hast bestowed on man;
To count thy mercies I have sought,
But boundless is their span.
Amen. Topics: Christian Life God's Refreshing Grace; God Mercies of; Grace Refreshing; Rejoicing in God Scripture: Psalm 40:1-5 Used With Tune: DUNSTAN Text Sources: The Psalter,, 1912
I waited for the Lord most high
Before thy people I confess
Meter: 8.8.8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Before thy people I confess
The wonders of thy righteousness;
Thou knowest, Lord, that I have made
Thy great salvation known,
Thy truth and faithfulness displayed,
Thy loving-kindness shown.
2 Withhold not thou thy grace from me,
O Lord, thy mercy let me see,
To me thy lovin-gkindness show,
Thy truth be still my stay;
Let them preserve me where I go,
And keep me ev'ry day.
3 Let all who seek to see thy face
Be glad and joyful in thy grace;
Let those who thy salvation love
Forevermore proclaim:
O praise the Lord who dwells above,
And magnify his Name.
4 Although I poor and needy be,
The Lord in love takes thought for me;
Thou art my help in time of need,
My Saviour, Lord, art thou;
Then, O my God, I pray, I plead:
Stay not, but save me now.
Amen. Topics: Christian Life Trust in God; God Glory of; Praise; Rejoicing in God; Witnessing Scripture: Psalm 40:9-11 Used With Tune: DUNSTAN
Before thy people I confess
Jesus, Thy Saving Name I Bless
Author: Charles Wesley Meter: 8.8.8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Thy saving name I bless,
Delivered out of my distress,
Thy faithfulness I prove;
I magnify Thy mercy’s power;
My refuge in the trying hour
Was Thy almighty love.
2 Snatched from the rage of cruel men,
Brought up out of the lion’s den,
And thro’ the burning flame:
Jesus, Thine outstretched hand I see,
Might, wisdom, strength ascribe to Thee,
And bless Thy saving name.
3 Hereby Thou favorest me, I know,
Because Thou wouldst not let the foe
My hunted soul destroy;
Better than life Thy favor is,
’Tis pure delight, and perfect bliss,
And everlasting joy.
4 Saved by a miracle of grace,
Lord, I with thankful heart embrace
The token of Thy love:
This, this, the comfortable sign,
That I the first born church shall join,
And bless Thy name above. Used With Tune: FRANCES Text Sources: Hymns and Sacred Poems, 1749, Vol. I
