An Answer to Distrust
Hymnal: The Psalter #95 (1912) Topics: Man Mortal and Frail First Line: Fret not thyself, nor envious be Lyrics: 1 Fret not thyself, nor envious be,
When wicked workers thou shalt see,
Who prosper in their way;
For like the grass they perish soon,
And, like the herb cut down at noon,
They wither in a day.
2 Trust in the Lord and still do well,
Within the land securely dwell,
Feed on His faithfulness;
Delight thee also in the Lord,
And to thy heart He will accord
The good it would possess.
3 Yea, to the Lord thy way is know;
Confide in Him Who on the throne
Abides in pow'r divine;
Thy righteousness He shall display;
Resplendent as the light of day,
It shall unclouded shine. Scripture: Psalm 37 Languages: English Tune Title: JOSEPHINE

Well-Doing and Well-Being
Hymnal: The Psalter #97 (1912) Topics: Man Mortal and Frail First Line: A little that the righteous hold Lyrics: 1 A little that the righteous hold
Is better far than wealth untold
Of many wicked men;
Destroyed shall be their arm of pride,
But they who in the Lord confide
Shall be upholden then.
2 He knows the days the perfect live,
To them a heritage will give
Which ever shall abide;
In evil times no shame they know,
And in the days of famine's woe
They shall be satisfied.
3 Although the wicked prospered seem,
At last they vanish like a dream
And perish in a day;
Jehovah's foes shall soon appear
Like fields once fair, now brown and sere;
Like smoke they fade away.
4 They borrow oft and pay not back,
But righteous men do nothing lack,
And give with gracious hand;
Those cursed by Him shall be destroyed,
But such as have His grace enjoyed,
They shall possess the land. Scripture: Psalm 37 Languages: English Tune Title: GANGES
Well-Doing and Well-Being
The Righteous and the Evil-Doer
Hymnal: The Psalter #99 (1912) Topics: Man Mortal and Frail First Line: The wicked, watching for their prey Lyrics: 1 The wicked, watching for their prey,
Desire the righteous man to slay,
But God is on his side;
He will not leave him in their hands,
Nor count him guilty when he stands
In judgment to be tried.
2 Wait on the Lord and keep His way;
He will exalt thee, nor delay
To give the land to thee;
And when the wicked are cut off,
The wicked who against thee scoff,
Their judgment thou shalt see.
3 The wicked in great pow'r are seen,
Like spreading tree with foliage green
That grows in native ground.
I looked again, they were no more;
I sought the men so proud before,
But they could not be found.
4 Mark thou the upright day by day,
Behold the perfect in his way;
His journey ends in peace.
Destroyed at once shall rebels be;
Cut off from all posterity,
Their very name shall cease.
5 Salvation is from God, alone,
Whom as their covert saints have known
When by sore troubles tried;
The Lord Who helped in troubles past
Will save them to the very last,
For they in Him confide. Scripture: Psalm 37 Languages: English Tune Title: RAPTURE
The Righteous and the Evil-Doer
Hear me, O GOD, nor hide thy Face
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P102a (1766) Topics: God Eternal and Man mortal Lyrics: 1 Hear me, O GOD, nor hide thy Face;
But answer, lest I die;
Hast thou not built a Throne of Grace,
To hear when Winners cry?
2 My Days are wasted like the Smoke
Dissolving in the Air;
My Strength is dry'd, my Heart is broke,
And sinking in Despair.
3 My Spirits flag like with'ring Grass
Burnt with excessive Heat;
In secret Groans my Minutes pass,
And I forget to eat.
4 As on some lonely Building's Top,
The Sparrow tells her Moan,
Far from the Tents of Joy and Hope
I sit and grieve alone.
5 My Soul is like a Wilderness,
Where Beasts of Midnight howl;
There the sad Raven finds her Place,
And there the screaming Owl.
6 Dark dismal Thoughts, and boding Fears,
Dwell in my troubled Breast;
While sharp Reproaches wound my Ears,
Nor give my Spirit Rest.
7 My Cup is mingled with my Woes,
And Tears are my Repast;
My daily Bread, like Ashes, grows
Unpleasant to my Taste.
8 Sense can afford no real Joy
To Souls that feel thy Frown;
Lord, 'twas thy Hand advanc'd me high,
Thy Hand hath cast me down.
9 My Looks like withered Leaves appear;
And Life's declining Light
Grows faint, as Ev'ning Shadows are
That vanish into Night.
10 But Thou for ever art the same,
O my Eternal GOD;
Ages to come shall know thy Name,
And spread thy Works abroad.
11 Thou wilt arise, and shew thy Face,
Nor will my Lord delay
Beyond th' appointed Hour of Grace,
That long-expected Day.
12 He hears his Saints, he knows their Cry,
And by mysterious Ways
Redeems the Prisoners doom'd to die,
And fills their Tongues with Praise. Scripture: Psalm 102:20-21 Languages: English
Hear me, O GOD, nor hide thy Face
Let Sion and her Sons rejoice
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #P102b (1766) Topics: God Eternal and Man mortal Lyrics: 1 Let Sion and her Sons rejoice,
Behold the promis'd Hour;
Her GOD hath heard her mourning Voice,
And comes t' exalt his Pow'r.
2 Her Dust and Ruins that remain,
Are precious in our Eyes;
Those Ruins shall be built again,
And all that Dust shall rise.
3 The Lord will raise Jerusalem
And stand in Glory there;
Nations shall bow before his Name,
And Kings attend with Fear.
4 He sits a Sov'reign on his Throne,
With Pity in his Eyes;
He hears the dying Pris'ners' Groan
And sees their Sighs arise.
5 He frees the Souls condemn'd to Death,
And when his Saints complain,
It shan't be said, "That praying Breath
"Was ever spent in vain."
6 This shall be known when we are dead,
And left on long Record;
That Ages yet unborn may read,
And trust, and praise the Lord.
Scripture: Psalm 102:13-21 Languages: English
Let Sion and her Sons rejoice
