PSALM 77:1-2, 11-20
METER: 77 77 7
SUGGESTED TUNE: HENDON
This is the tune to such hymns as "Ask Ye What Great Thing I Know."
1. I cry out to God aloud,
I cry out so he'll hear me.
In my trouble I seek God,
I lift up my hands all night,
My soul won't be comforted.
2. I'll recall God's wondrous deeds,
All your wonders from of old.
I will think on all your work,
I'll muse on your mighty deeds.
Holy is your way, O God.
3. Is there any God like you?
You're the God who wonders does,
Who has shown the earth your might.
With your strength you saved your own,
Israel's children you redeemed.
4. When the waters saw you, God,
Trembled they in fear and awe.
Water poured forth from the clouds;
Thunder rang out in the skies,
Lightning's arrows flashed all 'round.
5. Thunder in the whirlwind crashed;
Lightning lighted up the world.
Earth itself trembled and shook.
Through the sea you made your way,
Through great waters made a path.
6. Through the sea you made your way,
Yet your footprints were unseen.
By the hand of Moses and
Aaron out of bondage you
Led your people like a flock.
