Thy Mercy and Thy Truth, O Lord

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 15 hymnals Matching Instances: 7 Lyrics: 1. Thy mercy and Thy truth, O Lord, Transcend the lofty sky; Thy judgments are a mighty deep, And as the mountains high. 2. Lord, Thou preservest man and beast; Since Thou art ever kind; Beneath the shadow of Thy wings We may a refuge find. 3. With the abundance of Thy house We shall be satisfied, From rivers of unfailing joy Our thirst shall be supplied. 4. The fountain of eternal life Is found alone with Thee, And in the brightness of Thy light We clearly light shall see. 5. From those that know Thee may Thy love And mercy ne’er depart, And may Thy justice still protect And bless the upright heart. 6. The workers of iniquity Are fallen utterly; They shall not triumph in their pride, Or drive my soul from Thee.

Author: Edward Osler; Philip Doddridge Appears in 84 hymnals Matching Instances: 2 Lyrics: 1 Fountain of good, to own Thy love Our thankful hearts incline; What can we render, Lord, to Thee, When all the worlds are Thine? 2 But Thou hast needy brethren here, Partakers of Thy grace, Whose names Thou wilt Thyself confess Before the Father's face. 3 And in their accents of distress Thy pleading voice is heard; In them Thou mayest be clothed, and fed, And visited, and cheered. 4 Thy face with reverence and with love, We in Thy poor would see; Oh, may we minister to them, And in them, Lord to Thee.

I Waited Patient for the Lord

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 107 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. I waited patient for the Lord, He bowed to hear my cry; He saw me resting on His Word, And brought salvation nigh. 2. He raised me from a horrid pit, Where mourning long I lay, And from my bonds released my feet, Deep bonds of miry clay. 3. Firm on a rock He made me stand, And taught my cheerful tongue To praise the wonders of His hand, In a new thankful song. 4. I’ll spread His works of grace abroad; The saints with joy shall hear, And sinners learn to make my God Their only hope and fear. 5. How many are Thy thoughts of love! Thy mercies, Lord, how great! We have not words nor hours enough Their numbers to repeat. 6. When I’m afflicted, poor, and low, And light and peace depart, My God beholds my heavy woe, And bears me on His heart.

On Judah's Plains as Shepherds Sat

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 26 hymnals Matching Instances: 1 Lyrics: 1. On Judah’s plains as shepherds sat, Watching their flocks by night, The angel of the Lord appeared, Clad in celestial light. 2. Awe struck the vision they regard, Appalled with trembling fear; When thus a cherub voice divine Breathed sweetly on their ear. 3. “Shepherds of Judah! cease your fears, And calm your troubled mind; Glad tidings of great joy I bring To you and all mankind. 4. “This day almighty Love fulfills Its great eternal Word; This day is born in Bethlehem A Savior, Christ the Lord. 5. There shall you find the heavenly Babe In humblest weeds arrayed; All meanly wrapped in swaddling clothes And in a manger laid. 6. He ceased, and sudden all around Appeared a radiant throng Of angels, praising God, and thus Warbling their choral song. 7. Glory to God, from whom on high All gracious mercies flow! Who sends His Heav’n descended Peace To dwell with man below.
