Psalm 71, Part 2

I wait to prove Thine utmost grace.
To love and praise Thee evermore;
My mouth shall show Thy righteousness.
The riches of Thy saving power:
But who Thy saving power can tell?
Its riches are unsearchable.

Yet will I in Thy strength go forth,
And spread Thy righteousness Divine;
Trample on all the creatures' worth;
Merit and good are only Thine:
Impute it, and our sin 's forgiven;
Implant, and man is meet for heaven.

Me from my youth Thou, Lord, hast taught,
And still I have Thy wonders shown;
Feeble and old, forsake me not
Till I Thy saving power make known,
To this, and distant times record
My glorious, all-redeeming Lord.

Thy righteousness is far above
The human or angehc ken:
AVho can express Thy mighty love,
Thy wonders tow'rds the sons of men?
What earthly power, or heavenly, dare
With Thee, the God of gods, compare?

Thee, Saviour of mankind, I bless,
And thank Thee for my troubles past;
Out of the depth of sore distress
Thy love shall bring me up at last;
Quicken, increase my faith, and guide,
And comfort me on every side.

Wherefore I will Thy goodness sing,
Thy faithfulness with joy record;
My harp, and every tuneful string,
Shall sound the mercies of my Lord,
The Holy One of Is?'ael praise.
The pardoning God of truth and grace.

My lips shall glory in the song.
My soul in Thy redeeming love;
Thy righteousness shall all day long
The matter of my triumph prove;
For all the tempter's rage is o'er,
And sin and sorrow are no more.
