Praise for Protection, Grace and Truth
Isaac Watts • English
Primary Scripture: Psalm 57
Verse 1
My God, in whom are all the springs of boundless love, and grace unknown, hide me beneath thy spreading wings, till fearful clouds are overblown. Up to the heav'ns I send my cry, the Lord will my desires perform; he sends his angel from the sky, and saves me from the threat'ning storm.
Verse 2
Be thou exalted, O my God, above the heav'ns, where angels dwell; thy pow'r on earth be known abroad, and land to land thy wonders tell. My heart is fixed; my song shall raise immortal honors to thy name; awake, my tongue, to sound his praise, to sing his everlasting fame.
Verse 3
High o'er the earth his mercy reigns, and reaches to the utmost sky; his truth to endless years remains, when lower worlds dissolve and die. Be thou exalted, O my God, above the heav'ns, where angels dwell; thy pow'r on earth be known abroad, and land to land thy wonders tell.
