Psalms 23:5

• [Psa 23:5] O Thou Whose Bounty Fills My Cup

  O Thou, whose bounty fills my cup With every blessing meet! I give Thee thanks for every drop— The bitter and the sweet. I praise Thee for the desert road, And for the riverside; For all Thy goodness hath bestowed, And all Thy grace denied. I thank Thee for both smile and frown, And for the gain and loss; I praise Thee for the future crown, And for the present cross. I thank Thee for the wing of love, Which stirred my worldly nest; And for the stormy clouds which drove The flutterer to Thy breast. I bless Thee for the glad increase, And for the waning joy; And for this strange, this settled peace, Which nothing can destroy.

Psalms 40:1

• [Psa 40:1] Day After Day I Sought The Lord

  Day after day I sought the Lord, And waited patiently; Until He bent down from His throne, And hearkened to my cry. He drew me from the fearful pit, And from the miry clay; He placed my feet upon a rock, And led me in His way. He taught my soul a new-made song, A song of holy praise, All they who see these things, with fear Their hopes to God shall raise. Most blessèd is the man whose hope Upon the Lord relies; Who follows not the proud, nor those That turn aside to lies. O Lord, what wonders hast Thou wrought, All number far above! Thy thoughts to us-ward overflow With mercy, grace, and love. Show forth Thy mercy, gracious Lord; O take it not away! Thy loving kindness and Thy truth, Let them be still my stay. For countless sorrows hem me round; And my iniquities So hold me fast, and drag me down, I cannot raise my eyes. My hairs in number they surpass; Hence is my heart dismayed; Vouchsafe, O Lord, to rescue me! O hasten to my aid. Let those who seek Thee faithfully In peace and joy abide; Let those who love Thy grace still say, “The Lord be magnified.” Poor am I, and in need; yet God Care of my soul doth take. Thou art my help; my Savior Thou; Lord, no long tarrying make.

• [Psa 40:1] I Waited For The Lord Most High

  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 steadfast made my way. 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. 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. Not sacrifice delights the Lord, But he who hears and keeps His Word; Thou gavest me to hear Thy will, Thy law is in my heart; I come the Scripture to fulfill, Glad tidings to impart.

• [Psa 40:1] I Waited For The Lord My God

  I waited for the Lord my God, Yea, patiently drew near, And He at length inclined to me, My pleading cry to hear. He took me from destruction’s pit, From out the miry clay; He set my feet upon a rock, And steadfast made my way. A new and joyful song of praise My thankful heart He taught, A song of glory to our God For all that He has wrought. And many who behold how good The Lord has been to me Shall learn to fear, and in His Name Their trust shall henceforth be.
