The Lord appears my helper now

Hymnal: DWIP1790 #255b (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 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 thro' the Lord my heart is strong, In him my lips rejoice; While his salvation is my song, How cheerful is my voice! 5 Like angry bees they gird 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

Blest are the undefil'd in heart

Hymnal: DWIP1790 #259b (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Blest are the undefil'd in heart, Whose ways are right and clean; Who never from thy law depart, But fly from ev'ry sin. 2 Blest are the men that keep thy word, And practise thy commands; With their whole heart they seek the Lord, And serve thee with their hands. 3 Great is their peace who love thy law; How firm their souls abide! Nor can a bold temptation draw Their steady feet aside. 4 Then shall my heart have inward joy, And keep my face from shame, When all thy statutes I obey, And honor all thy name. 5 But haughty sinners God will hate, The proud shall die accurst! The sons of falsehood and deceit Are trodden to the dust. 6 Vile as the dross the wicked are, And those that leave thy ways Shall see salvation from afar, But never taste thy grace. Scripture: Psalm 119:1-3 Languages: English

Scripture: Psalm 119:147 Languages: English

Thou art my portion, O my God

Hymnal: DWIP1790 #261b (1790) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Lyrics: 1 Thou art my portion, O my God; Soon as I know thy way, My heart makes haste t' obey thy word, And suffers no delay. 2 I choose the path of heav'nly truth, And glory in my choice; Not all the riches of the earth Could make me so rejoice. 3 The testimonies of thy grace I set before my eyes: Thence I derive my daily strength, And there my comfort lies. 4 If once I wander from thy path, I think upon my ways; Then turn my feet to thy commands, And trust thy pard'ning grace. 5 Now I am thine, for ever thine, O save thy servant, Lord! Thou art my shield, my hiding place, My hope is in thy word. 6 Thou hast inclin'd this heart of mine Thy statutes to fulfil: And thus, till mortal life shall end, Would I perform thy will.
