Psalms 17:1

• [Psa 17:1] Lord, Hear The Right

  Lord, hear the right, regard my cry, My prayer from lips sincere, Send Thine approval from on high, My righteousness make clear. Thou in the night my heart hast tried, Nor found it turned from Thee aside. With steadfast courage I design No wrong to speak or do; Thy path of life I choose for mine And walk with purpose true. For help, O God, I cry to Thee, Assured that Thou wilt answer me. O Thou that ever savest those Whose trust on Thee is stayed, Preserving them from all their foes By Thine almighty aid, Let me Thy lovingkindness see, Thy wondrous mercy, full and free. O guard me well as one would guard The apple of the eye; While deadly foes are pressing hard, To Thee, to Thee I cry; Do Thou my rest and refuge be, O let Thy wings o’ershadow me. Mine enemy, grown strong in pride, Would take my life away, A lion lurking by my side, Most greedy for his prey. Confront and cast him down, O Lord, From evil save me by Thy sword. Defend me from the men of pride, Whose portion is below, Who, with life’s treasures satisfied, No better portion know; They, with earth’s joys and wealth content, Must leave them all when life is spent. When I in righteousness at last Thy glorious face shall see, When all the weary night is past, And I awake with Thee To view the glories that abide, Then, then I shall be satisfied.

• [Psa 17:1] Sweet Savior! In Thy Pitying Grace

  Sweet Savior! in Thy pitying grace Thy sweetness to our souls impart; Thou only Lover of our race Give healing to the wounded heart; Oh! hear Thy contrite servants’ cry, And save us, Jesu! lest we die. Long-suffering Jesu! hear our prayer Who weep before Thee in our shame; We have no hope but Thee; O spare, Lord, spare us from th’undying flame; Oh! hear Thy contrite servants’ cry, And save us, Jesu! lest we die. All we have broken Thy command; Lord, help us for Thy mercies’ sake; Deliver us from Satan’s hand, And safely to Thy kingdom take; Oh! hear Thy contrite servants’ cry, And save us, Jesu! lest we die. We flee for refuge to Thy love, Salvation of the helpless soul; Pour down Thy radiance from above, And make these sin-worn spirits whole: Oh! hear Thy contrite servants’ cry, And save us, Jesu! lest we die.

Psalms 33:1

• [Psa 33:1] Rejoice, Ye Righteous, In The Lord

  Rejoice, ye righteous, in the Lord, This work belongs to you: Sing of His Name, His ways, His Word, How holy, just and true! His mercy and His righteousness Let Heav’n and earth proclaim; His works of nature and of grace Reveal His wondrous Name. His wisdom and almighty Word The heav’nly arches spread, And by the Spirit of the Lord Their shining hosts were made. He bid the liquid waters flow To their appointed deep; The flowing seas their limits know, And their own station keep. Ye tenants of the spacious earth With fear before Him stand; He spake, and nature took its birth, And rests on His command. He scorns the angry nations’ rage, And breaks their vain designs; His counsel stands through every age, And in full glory shines.

• [Psa 33:1] Ye Holy Souls, In God Rejoice

  Ye holy souls, in God rejoice, Your Maker’s praise becomes your voice; Great is your theme, your songs be new: Sing of His Name, His Word, His ways, His works of nature and of race, How wise and holy, just and true! Justice and truth He ever loves, And the whole earth His goodness proves, His Word the heav’nly arches spread: How wide they shine from north to south! And by the spirit of His mouth Were all the starry armies made. He gathers the wide-flowing seas, Those watery treasures know their place In the vast storehouse of the deep: He spake, and gave all nature birth; And fires, and seas, and Heav’n, and earth; His everlasting orders keep. Let mortals tremble and adore A God of such resistless power, Nor dare indulge their feeble rage: Vain are your thoughts, and weak your hands; But His eternal counsel stands, And rules the world from age to age.

• [Psa 33:1] Ye Righteous, In The Lord Rejoice

  Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice; ’Tis comely that with joyful voice God’s saints His Name should praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, Your gift of sweetest music bring, To Him a new song raise. For upright is Jehovah’s Word, And all the doings of the Lord In justice have their birth. In judgment and in deeds of right The Lord forever takes delight, His goodness fills the earth. Jehovah speaks, the heav’ns appear; He breathes, and lo, each shining sphere In splendor stands arrayed. He rolls the water heap on heap, He stores away the mighty deep In garners for it made. Let all the earth Jehovah fear, Let all that dwell both far and near In awe before Him stand; For lo, He spoke and it was done, And all, with sovereign power begun, Stood fast at His command. He makes the nations’ counsels vain, The plans the peoples would maintain Are thwarted by His hand. Jehovah’s counsels stand secure, His purposes of heart endure, Forevermore they stand. O truly is the nation blest Whose God, before the world confessed, Jehovah is alone; And blest the people is whom He Has made His heritage to be, And chosen for His own.

Psalms 64:1

• [Psa 64:1] Hear, Lord, The Voice Of My Complaint

  Hear, Lord, the voice of my complaint, Preserve my life from fear; Hide me from plotting enemies And evil, crowding near. The workers of iniquity, Their deadly shafts prepare; They aim at me their treacherous words; O save me from their snare. The wicked in their base designs Grow arrogant and bold; Conspiring secretly, they think That God will not behold; They search out more iniquity, Their thoughts and plans are deep, But God will smite, for He is near His saints to guard and keep. The wicked, by their sins o’ercome, Shall soon be brought to shame; The hand of God shall yet appear, And all shall fear His Name. The just shall triumph in the Lord, Their trust shall be secure, And endless glory then shall crown The upright and the pure.

• [Psa 64:1] Unmoved By Fear, My Praise Is Due

  Unmoved by fear, my praise is due To Thee, Thou gracious God of saints; Thy mercies great, Thy counsel true, My prayers are heard and my complaints; My prayers are heard and my complaints. Compassed by love, my heart’s best thought I raise in gratitude to Thee; Nor wait to thank Thee; all untaught, Thy love’s best gift hath taught it me; Thy love’s best gift hath taught it me. I fear but that I may not gain A place beside my noblest Friend; I love, but ah, the sweet refrain, “On Thee, my Savior, I depend; On Thee, my Savior, I depend.”
