That awful day will surely come
My voice I will lift up to God
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1 hymnal Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 My voice I will lift up to God,
I'll cry to God nor spare;
my voice I will lift up to God,
and he will hear my prayer.
2 In day of woe I sought the Lord;
by night in ceaseless grief
my hand was stretched out to him;
my soul refused relief.
3 I to remembrance God do call,
and then I sigh and mourn;
I with myself commune, my heart
with grief is overborne.
4 Thou dost deny mine eyelids sleep,
withhold the rest I seek;
my trouble is so great that I
unable am to speak.
5 I thought on days and years of old,
recalled my song by night;
6 I with my heart communed, my soul
made earnest search for light.
7 For ever will the Lord cast off,
and gracious be no more?
8 For ever is his mercy gone?
Fails his word evermore?
9 Is't so that to be gracious
the Lord forgotten hath;
and that his tender mercies he
hath shut up in his wrath?
Scripture: Psalm 77:1-9 Used With Tune: ELGIN
My voice I will lift up to God
Oft did they vex me from my youth
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 5 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1 Oft did they vex me from my youth,
may Israel now declare;
2 oft did they vex me from my youth,
yet not victorious were.
3 The ploughers ploughed upon my back;
they long their furrows made;
4 The righteous Lord did cut the cords
the wicked round me laid.
5 Let Zion’s haters all be turned,
into confusion thrown,
6 as grass on housetops let them be,
which fades ere it be grown:
7 whereof enough to fill his hand
the mower cannot find;
nor can the man his bosom fill,
whose work is sheaves to bind.
8 Nor is it said by passers by,
God’s blessing on you rest:
we in the Lord's most holy name
pray that ye may be blest. Scripture: Psalm 129 Used With Tune: ELGIN
Oft did they vex me from my youth
