Why Do You Stand So Far Away, O LORD

Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 2nd Commandment (You shall not misuse the name) First Line: Why do you stand so far away, O LORD? Lyrics: 1 Why do you stand so far away, O LORD? Why do you hide yourself in troubled times? In arrogance the wicked trap the poor; they catch the weak in schemes they have devised. 2 The wicked boast about their hearts' desires; the covetous renounce and spurn the LORD. In pride they see no need to seek for aid; in all their thoughts they say, "There is no God." 3 They prosper and in pride ignore your law; at all their foes they only puff in scorn. Within their hearts they think, "I am secure; throughout my life my happiness is sure." 4 Their mouths are filled with oaths and lies and threats; beneath their tongues are evil thoughts and deeds. They lie in ambush near the village street; the innocent they murder and defeat. 5 The helpless one is crushed and trampled down; another victim falls beneath their might. At heart they think, "God has forgotten this; he hides his face, so he will never see." 6 Arise, O LORD, lift up your hand, O God! Do not forget the helpless and the poor. Why do the wicked proudly scoff at God and say, "He will not call me to account"? 7 O God, you note injustice and distress that you may take it all into your hands. The helpless ones commit themselves to you, for you give help to orphans and the poor. 8 O break the wicked evildoers' arm! Seek out the secret sin they try to hide. The LORD is King through all eternity; all sinful ones will perish from his land. 9 LORD, you will hear the longing of the meek; strengthen their hearts, incline your ear to them. You will defend the orphan and the poor that evil ones may terrify no more. Scripture: Psalm 10 Used With Tune: FLENTGE Text Sources: The Book of Psalms for Singing, 1975, alt.

How Wickedly They Spread Their Lies

Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 8th Commandment (You shall not give false witness) Lyrics: 1 How wickedly they spread their lies and speak with vicious tongue! My prayer, my friendship they despise and do me groundless wrong. I praise my God, but I implore: do not stay silent any more. 2 How terribly will they be shamed when they are justly tried! Their days are shortened, prayers condemned, th'accuser at their side. The traitor dies in deep disgrace, so let another take his place. 3 How fearfully we hear the doom on all their kith and kin! Their work, their wealth, their name, their home all suffer for their sin. They did not bless and reaped the blame; they loved to curse and curses came. 4 How tenderly the LORD will deal with us, when stalked by death! The wounded he will lift and heal, the fainting, fill with breath. I plead your love, your name alone: save me, my God; your pow'r make known! 5 How graciously your hand will bless when my accusers curse! Dishonor is their chosen dress; their slanders you reverse. I praise the LORD who judges them; when God defends, who shall condemn? Scripture: Psalm 109 Used With Tune: TYDI A RODDAIST

Not for Ourselves

Author: Carl P. Daw Jr. Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 2 hymnals Topics: Ten Commandments 1st Commandment (You shall have no other gods) First Line: Not for ourselves, O LORD, not for ourselves Lyrics: 1 Not for ourselves, O LORD, not for ourselves, would we claim glory, but for you alone, for your great love and constant faithfulness, the steadfast care that makes your presence known. 2 The worldly say of us: "Where is their God?" They vainly look for what they idolize, for flaunted wealth, for burnished images, and trim all gods to their own shape and size. 3 But we will trust in God, our help and shield, transcendent Life on whom all lives depend, whose untold mercies give our spirits voice to bless the LORD in songs that never end. Scripture: Psalm 115 Used With Tune: WOODLANDS
