Psalms 41:1

• [Psa 41:1] How Blest The Man Who Thoughtfully

  How blest the man who thoughtfully The poor and weak befriends; Deliverance in the evil day To him Jehovah sends. The Lord will keep him, guard his life, On earth he shall be blest; The Lord will not surrender him By foes to be distressed. Upon the bed of suffering Jehovah will sustain, And in his sickness God will soothe The weariness and pain. O Lord, to Thee my cry ascends, Let me Thy mercy see; Heal Thou my soul, for I have sinned, I have offended Thee. My enemies against me speak, And they my life have scorned; They wish my name to pass away, Unhonored and unmourned. My foe, deceitful, visits me, By seeming kindness led, His heart intent on gathering Some hurtful news to spread. My foes, together whispering, Their evil plans devise; Disease, they say, cleaves fast to him, Laid low, he shall not rise. Yea, he who was my chosen friend, In whom I put my trust, Who ate my bread, now turns in wrath To crush me in the dust. Do Thou, Jehovah, show me grace, And raise me up again, That I with justice may requite These base and wicked men. By this I know assuredly That I am loved by Thee, Because my foe does not exult In triumph over me. And as for me, in uprightness Thou dost uphold me well, And settest me before Thy face Forevermore to dwell. Blest be Jehovah, Israel’s God Forevermore. Amen. Let age to age eternally Repeat His praise. Amen.

Psalms 45:8

• [Psa 45:8] Ivory Palaces

  My Lord has garments so wondrous fine, And myrrh their texture fills; Its fragrance reached to this heart of mine With joy my being thrills. Refrain Out of the ivory palaces, Into a world of woe, Only His great eternal love Made my Savior go. His life had also its sorrows sore, For aloes had a part; And when I think of the cross He bore, My eyes with teardrops start. Refrain His garments too were in cassia dipped, With healing in a touch; Each time my feet in some sin have slipped, He took me from its clutch. Refrain In garments glorious He will come, To open wide the door; And I shall enter my heav’nly home, To dwell forevermore. Refrain

Psalms 118:26

• [Psa 118:26] Crown His Head With Endless Blessing

  Crown His head with endless blessing, Who, in God the Father’s Name, With compassions never ceasing, Comes salvation to proclaim. Hail, ye saints, who know His favor, Who within His gates are found, Hail, ye saints th’exalted Savior, Let His courts with praise resound. Lo, Jehovah, we adore Thee; Thee our Savior! Thee our God! From His throne His beams of glory Shine through all the world around. In His Word His light arises, Brightest beams of truth and grace; Bind, O bind your sacrifices, In His courts your offerings place. Jesus, Thee our Savior hailing, Thee our God in praise we own, Highest honors, never failing, Rise eternal round Thy throne. Now, ye saints, His pow’r confessing, In your grateful strains adore; For His mercy never ceasing, Flows, and flows forevermore.
