Song based on Psalm 30

Song based on Psalm 30
Pentecost 4; Tune Sussex Carol (On Christmas night all Christians sing) English traditional melody
1.We cry to you! You draw us up
from depths to healing light again!
You bring us back from silent lands!
You save our lives and make us whole!
	Sing out with all the faithful ones!
	Grateful hearts never silence praise.

2.Complacent in prosperity,
we may yet find ourselves dismayed.
Our heaviness may last a night,
but hearts lift up with sun at dawn.
	Sing out with all the faithful ones!
	Grateful hearts never silence praise.

3.Though you may seem to hide your face,
we find your mercy once again.
Our lamentation turns to dance:
amidst our grief you bring us joy.
	Sing out with all the faithful ones!
	Grateful hearts never silence praise.
