Hymnal: The Psalms of David #212b (1740) Topics: Christ the church's foundation First Line: The Lord appears my Helper now Lyrics: 1 The Lord appears my Helper now,
Nor is my Faith afraid
What all the Sons of Earth can do,
Since Heav'n affords its Aid.
2 'Tis safer, Lord, to hope in Thee,
And have my GOD my Friend,
Than trust in Men of high Degree,
And on their Truth depend.
3 Like Bees, my Foes beset me round,
A large and angry Swarm;
But I shall all their Rage confound
By thine Almighty Arm.
4 'Tis through the Lord my Heart is strong,
In him my Lips rejoice;
While his Salvation is my Song,
How chearful is my Voice!
5 Like angry Bees they girt me round;
When GOD appears they fly;
So burning Thorns, with crackling Sound,
Make a fierce Blaze and die.
6 Joy to the Saints and Peace belongs;
The Lord protects their Days:
Let Isr'el tune immortal songs
To his Almighty Grace. Scripture: Psalm 118:6-15 Languages: English
