Psalms 71:8

• [Psa 71:8] Fill Thou My Life

  Fill Thou my life, O Lord my God, In every part with praise, That my whole being may proclaim Thy being and Thy ways. Not for the lip of praise alone, Nor e’en the praising heart I ask, but for a life made up Of praise in every part! Praise in the common words I speak, Life’s common looks and tones, In fellowship in hearth and board With my belovèd ones; Not in the temple crowd alone Where holy voices chime, But in the silent paths of earth, The quiet rooms of time. Fill every part of me with praise; Let all my being speak Of Thee and of Thy love, O Lord, Poor though I be, and weak. So shalt Thou, Lord, from me, e’en me, Receive the glory due; And so shall I begin on earth The song forever new. So shall each fear, each fret, each care Be turned into a song, And every winding of the way The echo shall prolong; So shall no part of day or night From sacredness be free; But all my life, in every step Be fellowship with Thee.

Psalms 71:15-19

• [Psa 71:15] Just A Word For Jesus

  Now just a word for Jesus; Your dearest Friend so true; Come, cheer our hearts and tell us What He hath done for you. Refrain Now just a word for Jesus, ’Twill help us on our way! One little word for Jesus, Oh speak, or sing, or pray! Now just a word for Jesus; You feel your sins forgiven, And by His grace are striving To reach a home in Heaven. Refrain Now just a word for Jesus; A cross it cannot be To say, “I love my Savior Who gave His life for me.” Refrain Now just a word for Jesus; Let not the time be lost; The heart’s neglected duty Brings sorrow, to its cost. Refrain Now just a word for Jesus; And if your faith be dim; Arise in all your weakness And leave the rest to Him. Refrain

• [Psa 71:16] I Will Go In The Strength Of The Lord

  I will go in the strength of the Lord, In the path He hath marked for my feet: I will follow the light of His Word, Nor shrink from the dangers I meet. His presence my steps shall attend: His fullness my wants shall supply; On Him, till my journey shall end, My hope shall securely rely. I will go in the strength of the Lord, To the work He appoints me to do: In the joy which His smile shall afford My soul shall her vigor renew. His wisdom will guard me from harm, His pow’r my sufficiency prove; I will trust His omnipotent arm, I will rest in His covenant love. I will go in the strength of the Lord, To each conflict which faith may require, His grace, as my shield and reward, My courage and zeal shall inspire. If He issue the word of command To meet and encounter the foe, Though with sling and with stone in my hand, In the strength of the Lord I will go.

• [Psa 71:18] From Days Of Early Youth, O God

  From days of early youth, O God, By Thee have I been taught, And faithfully have I declared The wonders Thou hast wrought. O gracious God, forsake me not When I am old and gray, That unto those that follow me I may Thy might display. Thy perfect righteousness, O God, The height of Heav’n exceeds, O who is like to Thee, who hast Performed such mighty deeds? Thou Who hast sent me many griefs, Wilt yet my soul restore, And out of sorrow’s lowest depths Wilt bring me forth once more. O turn again and comfort me, My waning strength increase, And for Thy faithfulness, O God, My praise shall never cease. Thou Holy One of Israel, To Thee sweet songs I raise; The soul Thou hast redeemed from death Shall give Thee joyful praise. My enemies that seek my hurt Thy help has put to shame; My thankful tongue will ceaselessly Thy righteousness proclaim.
