Psalms 20:1

• [Psa 20:1] Dread Jehovah, God Of Nations

  Dread Jehovah, God of nations, From Thy temple in the skies, Hear Thy people’s supplications, Now for their deliverance rise. Lo, with deep contritions turning, Humbly at Thy feet we bend; Hear us, fasting, praying, mourning; Hear us, spare us, and defend. Though our sins, our hearts confounding, Long and loud for vengeance call, Thou hast mercy more abounding, Jesus’ blood can cleanse from all. Let that love veil our transgressions, Let that blood our guilt efface: Save Thy people from oppression, Save from spoil Thy holy place.

• [Psa 20:1] Now May The God Of Power And Grace

  Now may the God of power and grace Attend His people’s humble cry! Jehovah hears when Israel prays, And brings deliverance from on high. The Name of Jacob’s God defends Better than shields or brazen walls; He from His sanctuary sends Succor and strength, when Zion calls. Well He remembers our sighs, His love exceeds our best deserts; His love accepts the sacrifice Of humble groans and broken hearts. In His salvation is our hope, And in the Name of Israel’s God, Our troops shall lift their banners up Our navies spread their flags abroad. Some trust in horses trained for war, And some of chariots make their boasts; Our surest expectations are From Thee, the Lord of heav’nly hosts. O may the memory of Thy Name Inspire our armies for the fight! Our foes shall fall and die with shame, Or quit the field with shameful flight. Now save us, Lord, from slavish fear; Now let our hopes be firm and strong Till the salvation shall appear, And joy and triumph raise the song.

Psalms 41:2

• [Psa 41:2] Prayer Is The Key

  Prayer is the key for the bending knee To open the morn’s first hours; See the incense rise to the starry skies, Like perfume from the flow’rs. Not a soul so sad, nor a heart so glad When cometh the shades of night, But the daybreak song will the joy prolong, And some darkness turn to light. Take the golden key in your hand and see, As the night-tide drifts away, How its blessèd hold is a crown of gold, Thro’ the weary hours of day. When the shadows fall, and the vesper call Is sobbing its low refrain, ’Tis a garland sweet to the toil-dent feet, And an antidote for pain. Soon our toils will cease, and will come release; Life’s tears shall be wiped away, As the pearl gates swing, and the gold harps ring, And we enter eternal day.

Psalms 53:6

• [Psa 53:6] O That The Lord’s Salvation

  O that the Lord’s salvation Were out of Zion come, To heal His ancient nation, To lead His outcasts home! How long the holy city Shall heathen feet profane? Return, O Lord, in pity; Rebuild her walls again. Let fall Thy rod of terror; Thy saving grace impart; Roll back the veil of error; Release the fettered heart. Let Israel, home returning, Their lost Messiah see; Give oil of joy for mourning, And bind Thy church to Thee.

Psalms 57:3

• [Psa 57:3] Spirit Of Mercy, Truth And Love

  Spirit of mercy, truth and love, O shed Thine influence from above, And still from age to age convey The wonders of this sacred day. In every clime, by every tongue, Be God’s amazing glory sung; Let all the listening earth be taught The wonders by our Savior wrought. Unfailing Comfort, heavenly Guide, Still o’er Thy holy Church preside; Still let mankind Thy blessings prove, Spirit of mercy, truth and love.
