O that Ishmael might live before thee Lyrics: 1 Thus did pious Abraham pray For his beloved son: Let parents in the present day His language make their own. 2 Tho' they with God in cov'nant be, And have their heav'n in view; They are unhappy till they see Their children happy too. 3 They warn, indulge, correct, beseech, While tears in torrents flow; And 'tis beyond the pow'r of speech To tell the griefs they know. 4 See the fond father clasp his child; Hark! how his bowels move: "Shalt thou, my offspring, be exil'd From God my Father's love? 5 Shall cruel spirits drag thee down To darkness and despair; Beneath th'Almighty's angry frown, To dwell for ever there? 6 Kind heaven, the dreadful scene forbid! Look down, dear Lord, and bless; I'll wrestle hard, as Jacob did-- May I obtain success?" Scripture: Genesis 17:18

Divine Retribution for Evil

Hymnal: The Psalter #300 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Parents and Children First Line: O God, Whom I delight to praise Lyrics: 1 O God, Whom I delight to praise, To Thee my cry for help I raise; Be Thou my friend and advocate When foes assail with bitter hate. 2 Against me sland'rous words are flung From many a false and lying tongue; Without a cause men hurl at me The shafts of deadly enmity. 3 My good with evil they repay, My love turns not their hate away; The part of vengeance, Lord, is Thine, To pray, and only pray, is mine. 4 Since love appeals to him in vain, The slave of sin let him remain; Against him let his foe be turned, His sin be judge, his prayer be spurned. 5 Let sudden death upon him break, His office let another take, His children and his widowed wife Pursue the homeless beggar's life. 6 Let creditors consume his toil And strangers make his wealth their spoil; Let none in pity heed his claim, Cut off his race, blot out his name. 7 His parents' sins be not forgot Till Thou from earth his memory blot, Since he remembered not to show Compassion to the sons of woe. 8 He cursing loved and blessing loathed; Unblest, with cursing he is clothed; For thus the justice of the Lord My adversaries will reward. 9 O God, the Lord, for Thy Name's sake Let me of Thy good grace partake; My need is great, and great Thou art To heal my wounded, stricken heart. 10 With failing strength I fast and pine, Like shadows swift my days decline, And when my foes my weakness see They shake the head in scorn at me. 11 O Lord my God, Thy help I crave, In Thy great loving-kindness save; Before my foes Thy mercy show; That Thou dost help me make them know. 12 What though they curse, if Thou wilt bless? Then joy shall banish my distress, And shame shall overwhelm the foes Who would Thy servant's way oppose. 13 Thanksgiving to the Lord I raise, The multitude shall hear my praise, For by the needy God will stand To save them from oppression's hand.
