Show pity, Lord (Baca)

[JM]

This hymn by Isaac Watts is one of humble confession and submission to the will of a holy, sovereign God. The hymn is number 761 in Gadsby's Hymns and has been set to the tune Baca (CTB: 292).

Samuel Medley's hymn (7 in Gadsby's Hymn Book) is a statement of faith that, even in the deepest of temptation and trials, God is, as the repeated refrain puts it, "Too wise to be mistaken... too good to be unkind." I have set it to the tune Contemplation (CTB 117) by Sir Frederick Arthur Gore Ouseley.
