The Lord from out His holy hill Gives answer when I cry. 3 I laid me down and slept, I waked, Because the Lord sustains; Tho' many thousands compass me, Unmoved my soul remains. 4 Arise, o Lord; save me, my God; For Thou hast owned my cause, And oft hast beaten down my foes Who scorn Thy righteous laws. 5 Salvation to the Lord belongs, In Him His saints are blest; O let Thy blessing evermore Upon Thy people rest.

Your hand, in sight of all my foes, shall still my table spread; my cup with blessings overflows, your oil anoints my head. 3 The sure provisions of my God attend me all my days; O may your house be my abode and all my work be praise. There would I find a settled rest, while others go and come no more a stranger or a guest, but like a child at home. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: RESIGNATION

Say, why in the valley of death should I weep, Or alone in this wilderness rove? 3 O why should I wander, an alien from Thee, Or cry in the desert for bread? Thy foes will rejoice when my sorrows they see, And smile at the tears I have shed. 4 He looks! and ten thousands of angels rejoice, And myriads wait for His word; He speaks! and eternity, filled with His voice; Re-echoes the praise of the Lord. 5 Dear Shepherd, I hear, and will follow Thy call; I know the sweet sound of Thy voice. Restore and defend me, for Thou art my all, And in Thee I will ever rejoice. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 23 Used With Tune: MEDITATION

The Lord Our Dwelling-Place

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 15 hymnals Topics: Afflictions For sin; Afflictions From God First Line: Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling-place Lyrics: 1 Lord, Thou hast been our dwelling place Through all the ages of our race; Before the mountains had their birth, Or ever Thou hadst formed the earth, From everlasting Thou art God, To everlasting our abode. 2 At Thy command man fades and dies And new-born generations rise; A thousand years are passed away, And all to Thee are but a day; Yea, like the watches of the night, With Thee the ages wing their flight. 3 Man soon yields up his fleeting breath Before this swelling tide of death; Like transient sleep his seasons pass, His life is like the tender grass, Luxuriant 'neath the morning sun, And withered ere the day is done. 4 Man in Thy anger is consumed, and unto grief and sorrow doomed; Before Thy clear and searching sight Our secret sins are brought to light; Beneath Thy wrath we pine and die, Our life expiring like a sigh. 5 For threescore years and ten we wait, Or fourscore years if strength be great; But grief and toil attend life's day, And soon our spirits fly away; O who with true and rev'rent though Can fear Thy anger as he ought? Scripture: Psalm 90 Used With Tune: ST. CATHERINE
