The Psalms And Hymns Of Isaac Watts

C. M.

Secret devotion and spiritual-mindedness.

ver.147,55

ver.81

ver.164

ver.62

To thee, before the dawning light

My gracious God, I pray;

I meditate thy name by night,

And keep thy law by day.

My spirit faints to see thy grace,

Thy promise bears me up;

And while salvation long delays,

Thy word supports my hope.

Seven times a day I lift my hands,

And pay my thanks to thee;

Thy righteous providence demands

Repeated praise from me.

When midnight darkness veils the skies,

I call thy works to mind;

My thoughts in warm devotion rise,

And sweet acceptance find.
