O God, My Heart Is Fully Bent
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 69 hymnals Matching Instances: 69 Lyrics: 1 O God, my heart is fully bent
To magnify Thy name;
My tongue with cheerful songs of praise
Shall celebrate Thy fame.
2 Awake, my lute; nor thou, my harp,
Thy warbling notes delay;
Whilst I with early hymns of joy
Prevent the dawning day.
3 To all the listening tribes, O Lord,
Thy wondrous works I’ll tell,
And to those nations sing Thy praise,
That round about us dwell:
4 Because Thy mercy’s boundless height
The highest heav’n transcends;
And far beyond th’aspiring clouds
Thy faithful truth extends.
5 Be Thou, O God, exalted high
Above the starry frame;
And let the world, with one consent,
Confess Thy glorious name.
6 That all Thy chosen people Thee
Their Savior may declare;
Let Thy right hand protect me still,
And answer Thou my prayer.
7 Since God Himself has said the word,
Whose promise cannot fail,
With joy I Sichem will divide,
And measure Succoth’s vale.
8 Gilead is mine, Manasseh, too,
And Ephraim owns my cause:
Their strength my regal power supports,
And Judah gives my laws.
9 Moab I’ll make my servile drudge,
On vanquished Edom tread;
And thro’ the proud Philistine lands,
My conquering banners spread.
10 By whose support and aid shall I
Their well fenced city gain?
Who will my troops securely lead
Thro’ Edom’s guarded plain?
11 Lord, wilt not Thou assist our arms,
Which late Thou didst forsake?
And wilt not Thou, of these our hosts,
Once more the guidance take?
12 O to Thy servant in distress
Thy speedy succor send;
For vain it is on human aid
For safety to depend.
13 Then valiant acts shall we perform,
If Thou Thy power disclose;
For God it is, and God alone,
That treads down all our foes. Used With Tune: LAMBETH Text Sources: A New Version of the Psalms of David by Nahum Tate and Nicholas Brady, 1696

Nahum Tate
1652 - 1715 Person Name: Nahum Tate, 1652-1715 Author of "O God, my heart is fully bent" in The Vestry Hymn Book Nahum Tate was born in Dublin and graduated from Trinity College, Dublin, B.A. 1672. He lacked great talent but wrote much for the stage, adapting other men's work, really successful only in a version of King Lear. Although he collaborated with Dryden on several occasions, he was never fully in step with the intellectual life of his times, and spent most of his life in a futile pursuit of popular favor. Nonetheless, he was appointed poet laureate in 1692 and royal historiographer in 1702. He is now known only for the New Version of the Psalms of David, 1696, which he produced in collaboration with Nicholas Brady. Poverty stricken throughout much of his life, he died in the Mint at Southwark, where he had taken refuge from his creditors, on August 12, 1715.
