Psalms 16:1

• [Psa 16:1] God, Keep Me Safe

  God, keep me safe; in You I refuge take. You are my Lord; I have no good elsewhere. The hearts of all idolaters will ache; In all their sacrifices I’ll not share. Lord, my inheritance You have assigned; You guard what’s mine and make me feel secure. Your boundary lines are pleasant to my mind; Your future blessings will bring joy for sure. Lord, I will praise You for Your counsel wise; Even at night my heart tells me Your way. I’ll always set You first before my eyes; You’re right beside me; I won’t be afraid. My heart is glad; my tongue rejoices e’er; I know You will not leave me when I die. The path of life to me You will declare; You’ll fill me with eternal joy on high.

• [Psa 16:1] O God, Preserve Me

  O God, preserve me, for in Thee Alone my trust has stood; My soul has said, Thou art my Lord, My chief and only good. I love Thy saints, who fear Thy Name, And walk as in Thy sight; They are the excellent of earth, In them is my delight. Their sorrows shall be multiplied Who worship aught but Thee; I share not in their offerings, Nor join their company. The Lord is mine inheritance, The Lord alone remains The fullness of my cup of bliss; The Lord my lot maintains. The lines are fallen unto me In places large and fair; A goodly heritage is mine, Marked out with gracious care.

• [Psa 16:1] Preserve Me, Lord

  Preserve me, Lord, in time of need; For succor to Thy throne I flee, But have no merits there to plead: My goodness cannot reach to Thee. Oft have my heart and tongue confessed How empty and how poor I am; My praise can never make Thee blessed, Nor add new glories to Thy Name. Yet, Lord, Thy saints on earth may reap Some profit by the good we do; These are the company I keep, These are the choicest friends I know. Let others choose the songs of mirth To give a relish to their wine; I love the men of heav’nly birth, Whose thoughts and language are divine.

A heritage for me Jehovah will remain; My portion rich and full is He, My right He will maintain. The lot to me that fell Is beautiful and fair; The heritage in which I dwell Is good beyond compare. I praise the Lord above Whose counsel guides aright; My heart instructs me in His love In seasons of the night. I keep before me still The Lord Whom I have proved; At my right hand He guards from ill, And I shall not be moved. Life’s pathway Thou wilt show, To Thy right hand wilt guide, Where streams of pleasure ever flow, And boundless joys abide.

Psalms 18:21

• [Psa 18:21] Lord, Thou Hast Seen My Soul Sincere

  Lord, Thou hast seen my soul sincere, Hast made Thy truth and love appear; Before mine eyes I set Thy laws, And Thou hast owned my righteous cause. Since I have learned Thy holy ways, I’ve walked upright before Thy face; Or if my feet did e’er depart, ’Twas never with a wicked heart. What sore temptations broke my rest! What wars and strugglings in my breast! But through Thy grace, that reigns within, I guard against my darling sin: That sin which close besets me still, That works and strives against my will: When shall Thy Spirit’s sovereign power Destroy it, that it rise no more? With an impartial hand, the Lord Deals out to mortals their reward; The kind and faithful souls shall find A God as faithful and as kind. The just and pure shall ever say Thou art more pure, more just than they; And men that love revenge shall know God hath an arm of vengeance, too.

• [Psa 18:28] O God, Before Thy Sun’s Bright Beams

  O God, before Thy sun’s bright beams All night’s dark shadows fly; So on the soul Thy mercy gleams, And doubts and terrors die. So freshly falls Thy heaven sent grace As morning’s gladdening breath; Gives light to all to seek Thy face, And guides in life and death. O holy light! O light of God! O light unseen below, Which fills the courts of Thine abode, Which there the blest shall know! Swift comes the hour when none can toil, Short is the rugged way: Teach us our lamps to fill with oil, Whilst it is called today. Then we shall see that glorious light Which to the saints is given, So sweet, so fair, so passing bright, The eternal morn of heaven. O Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, O holy One in Three, Grant us, with all Thy glorious host, To share that morn with Thee.

• [Psa 31:5] Into Thine Hand, O God Of Truth

  Into Thine hand, O God of truth, My spirit I commit; Thou hast redeemed my soul from death, And saved me from the pit. The passions of my hope and fear Maintained a doubtful strife, While sorrow, pain, and sin conspired To take away my life. “My times are in Thine hand,” I cried, “Though I draw near the dust”; Thou art the Refuge where I hide, The God in Whom I trust. O make Thy reconcilèd face Upon Thy servant shine, And save me for Thy mercy’s sake, For I’m entirely Thine. ’Twas in my haste my spirit said, “I must despair and die, I am cut off before Thine eyes”; But Thou hast heard my cry. Thy goodness how divinely free! How wondrous is Thy grace To those that fear Thy majesty, And trust Thy promises!

  Brood o’er us with Thy sheltering wing, ’Neath which our spirits blend Like brother birds, that soar and sing, And on the same branch bend. The arrow that doth wound the dove Darts not from those who watch and love. If thou the bending reed would break By thought or word unkind, Pray that His Spirit you partake, Who loved and healed mankind: Seek holy thoughts and heavenly strain, That make men one in love remain. Learn, too, that wisdom’s rod is given For faith to kiss, and know; That greetings glorious from high heaven, Whence joys supernal flow, Come from that Love, divinely near, Which chastens pride and earthborn fear. Through God, who gave that word of might Which swelled creation’s lay: “Let there be light, and there was light.” What chased the clouds away? ’Twas Love whose finger traced aloud A bow of promise on the cloud. Thou to whose power our hope we give, Free us from human strife. Fed by Thy love divine we live, For Love alone is life; And life most sweet, as heart to heart Speaks kindly when we meet and part.

The honors of our native place, And bulwarks of our land. In Sion God is known, A refuge in distress; How bright has His salvation shone Through all her palaces! When kings against her joined, And saw the Lord was there, In wild confusion of the mind, They fled with hasty fear. When navies tall and proud Attempt to spoil our peace, He sends His tempests roaring loud, And sinks them in the seas. Oft have our fathers told, Our eyes have often seen, How well our God secures the fold Where His own sheep have been. In every new distress We’ll to His house repair; We’ll think upon His wondrous grace, And seek deliverance there.

  All lands, to God in joyful sounds Aloft your voices raise; Sing forth the honor of His Name, And glorious make His praise, And glorious make His praise. Say ye to God, how terrible In all Thy works art Thou! To Thee Thy foes by Thy great power Shall be constrained to bow, Shall be constrained to bow. Yea, all the earth shall worship Thee, And unto Thee shall sing; To Thy great Name shall songs of joy With loud hosannas ring, With loud hosannas ring. O come, behold the works of God, His mighty doings see; In dealing with the sons of men Most wonderful is He, Most wonderful is He. He led in safety through the flood The people of His choice, He turned the sea to solid ground; In Him let us rejoice, In Him let us rejoice. He rules forever by His might, His eyes the nations try; Let not the proud, rebellious ones Exalt themselves on high, Exalt themselves on high.

• [Psa 66:1] O All Ye Peoples, Bless Our God

  O all ye peoples, bless our God, Aloud proclaim His praise, Who safely holds our souls in life, And steadfast makes our ways. Thou, Lord, hast proved and tested us As silver tried by fire; Thy hand has made our burden great And thwarted our desire. Through pain and trouble Thou hast led, And humbled all our pride; But, in the end, to liberty And wealth Thy hand did guide. Here in Thy house I give to Thee The life that Thou dost bless, And pay the solemn vows I made When I was in distress. Come, ye that fear the Lord, and hear What He has done for me; My cry for help is turned to praise, For He has set me free. If in my heart I sin regard, My prayer He will not hear; But truly God has heard my voice, My prayer has reached His ear. O let the Lord, our gracious God, Forever blessèd be, Who has not turned my prayer from Him, Nor yet His grace from me. O all ye peoples, bless our God, Aloud proclaim His praise, Who safely holds our souls in life, And steadfast makes our ways.

Psalms 66:10

• [Psa 66:10] Gracious Father, Guard Thy Children

  Gracious Father, guard Thy children From the foe’s destructive power; Save, O save them, Lord, from falling In this dark and trying hour. Thou wilt surely prove Thy people, All our graces must be tried; But Thy Word illumes our pathway, And in God we still confide. We are in the time of waiting; Soon we shall behold our Lord, Wafted far away from sorrow, To receive our rich reward. Keep us, Lord, till Thine appearing, Pure, unspotted, from the world; Let Thy Holy Spirit cheer us Till Thy banner is unfurled. With what joyful exultation Shall the saints Thy banner see, When the Lord for whom we’ve waited Shall proclaim the jubilee! Freedom from this world’s pollutions; Freedom from all sin and pain; Freedom from the wiles of Satan, And from death’s destructive reign.

• [Psa 67:3] Praise To God, Immortal Praise

  Praise to God, immortal praise, For the love that crowns our days; Bounteous Source of every joy, Let Thy praise our tongues employ. Flocks that whiten all the plain; Yellow sheaves of ripened grain; Clouds that drop their fattening dews, Suns that temperate warmth diffuse. All that Spring with bounteous hand Scatters o’er the smiling land; All that liberal Autumn pours From her rich o’erflowing stores. These to Thee, my God, we owe, Source whence all our blessings flow; And for these my soul shall raise Grateful vows and solemn praise. Yet, should rising whirlwinds tear From its stem the ripening ear; Should the fig tree’s blasted shoot Drop her green untimely fruit, Should the vine put forth no more, Nor the olive yield her store; Though the sickening flocks should fall, And the herds desert the stall, Yet to Thee my soul shall raise Grateful vows and solemn praise; And, when every blessing’s flown Love Thee for Thyself alone.

• [Psa 68:32] With One Consent Let All The Earth

  With one consent, let all the earth To God their cheerful voices raise; Glad homage pay with awful mirth, And sing before Him songs of praise. Convinced that He is God alone, From Whom both we and all proceed; We, whom He chooses for His own, The flock that He vouchsafes to feed. O enter, then, His temple gate, Thence to His courts devoutly press, And still your grateful hymns repeat, And still His Name with praises bless. For He’s the Lord, supremely good; His mercy is forever sure; His truth, which always firmly stood, To endless ages shall endure.

  Though I am poor and sorrowful, Hear Thou, O God, my cry; Let Thy salvation come to me And lift me up on high. Then will I praise my God with song, To Him my thanks shall rise, And this shall please Jehovah more Than offered sacrifice. The meek shall see it and rejoice; Ye saints, no more be sad; For lo, Jehovah hears the poor And makes his His prisoners glad. Let Heaven and earth and seas rejoice, Let all therein give praise, For Zion God will surely save, Her broken walls will raise. In Zion they that love His Name Shall dwell from age to age, Yea, there shall be their lasting rest, Their children’s heritage.

  O God, Thou art our King of old, Salvation Thou hast wrought; In safety through the mighty sea Our fathers Thou hast brought. With mighty arm Thou didst destroy The pride of boastful man, And for Thy people made a path Where mighty waters ran. The day is Thine, and Thine the night, And Thine the shining sun; At Thy command earth’s bounds are set And changing seasons run. Mark how Thine enemies, O Lord, Against Thee proudly speak; Preserve Thy saints from wicked men, Be mindful of the meek. Fulfill, O Lord, Thy covenant, Our strong Protector be, For in the earth are dark abodes Of crime and cruelty. Let not Thy saints be put to shame; No longer in Thy sight Permit Thy foes to vaunt themselves; Lord, vindicate the right.

Psalms 80:3

• [Psa 80:3] Great Shepherd Who Leadest Thy People In Love

  Great Shepherd, who leadest Thy people in love, ’Mid cherubim dwelling, shine Thou from above; In might come and save us, Thy people restore, And we shall be saved when Thy face shines once more. O haste, Lord, to hear us and pity our woes, Afflictions our portion, despised by our foes; O Lord God Almighty, in mercy restore, And we shall be saved when Thy face shines once more. A place for Thy people, Thou, Lord, didst prepare, Thy vine deeply rooted rewarded Thy care; Its branches like cedars, majestic and free, Spread over the mountains from river to sea. Thy vineyard no longer Thy tender care knows, Defenseless, the victim and spoil of her foes; O turn, we beseech Thee, all glory is Thine, Look down in Thy mercy and visit Thy vine. The branch of Thy planting is burned and cut down, Brought nigh to destruction because of Thy frown; The man of Thy right hand with wisdom endue, The son of man strengthen Thy pleasure to do. When Thou shalt revive us Thy Name we shall praise, And nevermore turning, depart from Thy ways; O Lord God Almighty, in mercy restore, And we shall be saved when Thy face shines once more.

Psalms 87:3

• [Psa 87:3] Glorious Things Of Thee Are Spoken

  Glorious things of thee are spoken, Zion, city of our God! He, whose Word cannot be broken, Formed thee for His own abode. On the Rock of Ages founded, What can shake thy sure repose? With salvation’s walls surrounded, Thou may’st smile at all thy foes. See! the streams of living waters, Springing from eternal love; Well supply thy sons and daughters, And all fear of want remove: Who can faint while such a river Ever flows their thirst t’assuage? Grace, which like the Lord, the Giver, Never fails from age to age. Round each habitation hovering, See the cloud and fire appear! For a glory and a cov’ring Showing that the Lord is near. Thus deriving from our banner Light by night and shade by day; Safe they feed upon the manna Which He gives them when they pray. Blest inhabitants of Zion, Washed in the Redeemer’s blood! Jesus, whom their souls rely on, Makes them kings and priests to God. ’Tis His love His people raises, Over self to reign as kings, And as priests, His solemn praises Each for a thank offering brings. Savior, if of Zion’s city, I through grace a member am, Let the world deride or pity, I will glory in Thy Name. Fading is the worldling’s pleasure, All his boasted pomp and show; Solid joys and lasting treasure None but Zion’s children know.

  When thickly beat the storms of life, And heavy is the chastening rod, The soul, beyond the waves of strife, Views the eternal Rock—her God. What hope dispels the spirit’s gloom, When sinking ’neath affliction’s shock? Faith, through the vista of the tomb, Points to the everlasting Rock. Is there a man who cannot see That joy and grief are from above? O let him humbly bend the knee, And own his Father’s chastening love. Hope, grace, and truth, with gentle hand, Shall lead a bleeding Savior’s flock, And show them, in the promised land, The shelter of th’eternal Rock.

And now in robes most richly decked, They to the King are brought; Surpassing angels, for have they A robe so richly wrought. We therefore throw our crowns below Thy high and glorious throne; And must all say, both night and day, Thou worthy art alone, All glory, power, and praise to have, By us forevermore; Thus let us sing unto our King, And Him in heart adore.
