Save Me, O God, Because the Floods

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #133 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Waiting upon God Lyrics: 1 Save me, O God, because the floods Come in upon my soul, I sink in depths where none can stand, Deep waters o'er me roll. 2 My constant calling wearies me, My throat is parched and dried; My eyes grow dim while for my God Still waiting I abide. 3 The foes who hate me unprovoked Are strong and still increase, Though to disarm their enmity My right I yield for peace. 4 O God, my folly and my sin Thy holy eye can see; Yet save from shame,Lord God of hosts, Thy saints that wait on Thee. 5 Forbid, O God, our covenant God, That those who seek Thy face Should see Thy servant put to shame And share in my disgrace. 6 It is for Thee I am reproached, For Thee I suffer shame, Until my brethren know me not, And hated is my name. 7 It is my zeal for Thy abode That has consumed my life; Reproached by those reproaching Thee, I suffer in the strife. 8 I wept, with fasting bowed my soul, Yet that was made my shame; When I in sackcloth clothed myself, Their byword I became. 9 The men who sit within the gate With slander do me wrong, And they who linger at their cups Make me their jest and song. Scripture: Psalm 69 Languages: English Tune Title: SAWLEY

Dependence on God

Hymnal: The Psalter #161 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Waiting upon God First Line: My soul in silence wiats for God Lyrics: 1 My soul in silence waits for God, My Saviour He has proved; He only is my rock and tow'r; I never shall be moved. 2 My enemies my ruin seek, They plot with fraud and guile; Deceitful, they pretend to bless, But inwardly revile. 3 My soul, in silence wait for God; He is my help approved, He only is my rock and tow'r, And I shall not be moved. 4 My honor is secure with God, My Saviour He is known; My refuge and my rock of strength Are found in God alone. 5 On Him, ye people, evermore Rely with confidence; Before Him pour ye out your heart, For God is our defense. 6 For surely men are helpers vain, The high and the abased; Yea, lighter than a breath are thy When in the balance placed. 7 Trust not in harsh oppression's power Nor in unrighteous gain; If wealth increase, yet on your gold Ye set your hearts in vain. 8 For God has spoken o'er and o'er, And unto me has shown, That saving power and lasting strength Belong to Him alone. 9 Yea, loving-kindness evermore Belongs to Thee, O Lord; And Thou according to his work Dost every man reward.

From the Depths Do I Invoke Thee

But with Thee there is forgiveness, That Thy Name may fear command. 3 For Jehovah I am waiting, And my hope is in His word. In His word of promise given; Yea, my soul waits for the Lord. 4 For the Lord my soul is waiting More than watchers in the night, More than thy for morning watching, Watching for the morning light. 5 Hope in God, ye waiting people; Mercies great with Him abound; With the Lord a full redemption From the guilt of sin is found.

Hast thou not known, hast thou not heard

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #28 (1961) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Waiting upon God Lyrics: 1 Hast thou not known, hast thou not heard That firm remains on high The everlasting throne of him Who formed the earth and sky? 2 Art thou afraid his pow'r shall fail When comes thine evil day? And can an all-creating arm Grow weary or decay? 3 Supreme in wisdom as in pow'r The Rock of Ages stands, Though him thou canst not see, nor trace The working of his hands. 4 He gives the conquest to the weak, Supports the fainting heart, And courage in the evil hour His heav'nly aids impart. 5 Mere human pow'r shall fast decay, And youthful vigor cease; But they who wait upon the Lord In strength shall still increase. 6 They with unwearied feet shall tread The path of life divine, With growing ardor onward move, With growing brightness shine. 7 On eagles' wings they mount, they soar - Their wings are faith and love - Till, past the cloudy regions here, They rise to heav'n above. Amen. Scripture: Isaiah 40:28 Languages: English Tune Title: DUNDEE
