Psalms 27:7

• [Psa 27:7] O Lord, Give Ear Unto My Voice

  O Lord, give ear unto my voice, when I do cry to Thee; Upon me also mercy have, and do Thou answer me. When Thou didst say, “Seek ye My face,” then unto Thee reply Thus did my heart, above all things Thy face, Lord, seek will I. Far from me hide not Thou Thy face; put not away from Thee Thy servant in Thy wrath: Thou hast a helper been to me. O God of my salvation, leave me not, nor forsake: Though me my parents both should leave, the Lord will me up take. O Lord, instruct me in Thy way, to me a leader be In a plain path, because of those that hatred bear to me. Give me not to mine enemies’ will; for witnesses that lie Against me risen are, and such as breathe out cruelty. I fainted had, unless that I believèd had to see The Lord’s own goodness in the land of them that living be. Wait on the Lord, and be thou strong, and He shall strength afford Unto thine heart; yea, do thou wait, I say, upon the Lord.

• [Psa 27:7] O Lord, Give Heed Unto Our Plea

  O Lord, give heed unto our plea, O Spirit, grant Thy graces, That we who put our trust in Thee May rightly sing Thy praises. Thy Word, O Christ, unto us give, That grace and pow’r we may receive To follow Thee, our Master. Touch Thou the shepherd’s lips, O Lord, That in this blessèd hour He may proclaim Thy sacred Word With unction and with power. What Thou wouldst have Thy servant say, Put Thou into his heart, we pray, With grace and strength to say it. Let heart and ear be opened wide Unto Thy Word and pleading; Our minds, O Holy Spirit, guide By Thine own light and leading. The law of Christ we would fulfill, And walk according to His will, His Word our rule of living.

Psalms 55:17

• [Psa 55:17] On God Alone My Soul Relies

  On God alone my soul relies, And He will soon relieve; The Lord will hear my plaintive cries At morning, noon, and eve. He has redeemed my soul in peace, From conflict set me free; My many foes are made to cease, And strive no more with me. The living God in righteousness Will recompense with shame The men, who hardened by success, Forget to fear His Name. All treacherous friends who overreach And break their plighted troth, Who hide their hate with honeyed speech With such the Lord is wroth. Upon the Lord thy burden cast To Him bring all thy care; He will sustain and hold thee fast, And give thee strength to bear. God will not let His saints be moved; Protected, they will shall see Their foes cut off and sin reproved; O God, I trust in Thee.

Psalms 84:8

• [Psa 84:8] Inspirer And Hearer Of Prayer

  Inspirer and hearer of prayer, Thou Shepherd and Guardian of Thine, My all to Thy covenant care, I, sleeping or waking, resign. If Thou art my Shield and my Sun, The night is no darkness to me; And, fast as my minutes roll on, They bring me but nearer to Thee. A sovereign Protector I have, Unseen, yet for ever at hand; Unchangeably faithful to save, Almighty to rule and command. His smiles and His comforts abound, His grace, as the dew, shall descend; And walls of salvation surround The soul He delights to defend.

• [Psa 84:8] Lord God Of Hosts, In Mercy

  Lord God of hosts, in mercy My supplication hear; Almighty and all faithful, Our fathers’ God, give ear. Our Shield and great Defender, No longer hide Thy face, But look upon Thy servant, Anointed by Thy grace. In Thy blest courts to worship, My God, a single day Is better than a thousand While far from Thee I stray. Though in a lowly station, The service of my Lord I choose above all pleasures That sinful ways afford. A sun and shield forever Is God, the Lord Most High, To those who walk uprightly No good will He deny. His saints, His grace receiving, Shall soon His glory see; O Lord of hosts, most blessèd Are they that trust in Thee.

• [Psa 84:8] O Lord Of Hosts, To Thee I Cry

  O Lord of hosts, to Thee I cry, Our fathers’ God, to Thee; Let my petition reach Thine ear, My prayer accepted be. O God our Shield, look Thou on us, Reveal Thyself in grace, And let Thine own anointed one Behold Thee face to face. A single day within Thy courts, Where I Thy beauty see, Is better than a thousand days, My God, apart from Thee. A lowly station in Thy house Were dearer to my heart Than in the tents of wickedness To claim the chiefest part. A Sun and Shield is God, the Lord, To lighten and defend; The Lord to such as look to Him Will grace and glory send. To those that walk in righteousness No good will He deny. O Lord of hosts, how blest are they Who on Thy grace rely!
