O God, Be Merciful to Me

Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: Deliverance From Enemies Lyrics: 1 O God, be merciful to me, My soul for refuge comes to Thee; Beneath Thy wings I safe will stay, Until these troubles pass away. To God Most High shall rise my prayer, To God who makes my wants His care; From heaven He will salvation send, And me from every foe defend. 2 Great foes and fierce my soul alarm, Inflamed with rage and strong to harm, But God, from heaven His dwelling-place, Will rescue me with truth and grace. Be Thou, O God, exalted high, Yea, far above the starry sky, And let Thy glory be displayed O’er all the earth Thy hands have made. 3 My soul is grieved because my foes With treacherous plans my way enclose; But from the snares that they devise Their own undoing shall arise. My heart is steadfast, O my King, My heart is tuned Thy praise to sing; Awake, my soul, and swell the song, Let vibrant harp the notes prolong. 4 Yea, I will early wake and sing, A thankful hymn to Thee will bring, For unto heaven Thy mercies rise, Thy truth is lofty as the skies. Be Thou, O God, exalted high, Yea, far above the starry sky, And let Thy glory be displayed O’er all the earth Thy hands have made. Scripture: Psalm 57 Used With Tune: SWEET HOUR OF PRAYER

Lyrics: 1 My God how many are my fears? How fast my foes increase? Conspiring my eternal death, They break my present peace. 2 Thy lying tempter would persuade There's no relief in heaven, And all my growing sins appear Too great to be forgiven. 3 But thou, my glory, and my strength, Shalt on the tempter tread, Shalt silence all my threatening guilt, And raise my drooping head. 4 [I cry'd, and from his holy hill He bow'd a listening ear; I call'd my Father, and my God, And he subdued my fear. 5 He shed soft slumbers on mine eyes, In spite of all my foes; I woke, and wonder'd at the grace That guarded my repose.] 6 What tho' the hosts of death and hell All arm'd against me stood; Terrors no more shall shake my soul; My refuge is my God. 7 Arise, O Lord, fulfill thy grace, While I thy glory sing; My God has broke the serpent's teeth, And death has lost his sting. 8 Salvation to the Lord belongs, His arm alone can save; Blessings attend thy people here, And reach beyond the grave. Scripture: Psalm 3
