Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 11 hymnals Topics: The Righteous Troubles of First Line: O all ye peoples, bless our God Lyrics: 1 O all ye peoples, bless our God, Aloud proclaim His praise, Who safely holds our soul in life And steadfast makes our ways. Thou, Lord, hast proved and tested us As silver tried by fire Thy hand has made our burden great And thwarted our desire 2 Thro' pain and trouble Thou hast led, And humbled all our pride; But, in the end, to liberty And wealth Thy hand did guide. Here in Thy house I give to Thee The life that Thou dost bless, And pay the solemn vows I made When I was in distress. 3 Come, ye that fear the Lord, and hear What He has done for me; My cry for help is turned to praise, For He has set me free. If in my heart I sin regard, My prayer He will not hear; But truly God has heard my voice, My prayer has reached His ear. 4 O let the Lord, our gracious God, Forever blessed be, Who has not turned my prayer from Him, Nor yet His grace from me. O all ye peoples, bless our God, Aloud proclaim His praise, Who safely holds our soul in life, And steadfast makes our ways. Scripture: Psalm 66 Used With Tune: ANCYRA

Doubts Overcome by Faith

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 5 hymnals Topics: The Righteous Forsaken by God First Line: To God for help will I repair Lyrics: 1 To God for help will I repair, To God will I direct my prayer, And surely He will answer me, His great salvation I shall see. 2 In long-continued grief I stand And seek the Lord with outstretched hand; I find no comfort for my soul the clouds of darkness o'er me roll. 3 I think of God and call to mind His goodness, yet no peace I find; I still pour out my sad complaints, My burdened spirit almost faints. 4 With sleepless eyes and speechless grief I search the past to find relief, The former years when days were bright And songs of gladness cheered my night. 5 My constant meditations bring My heart to anxious questioning: Has God cast off, and will He be No longer merciful to me? 6 Has God forgotten to be kind? Shall I His promise faithless find? For me shall wrath henceforth replace His tender mercies and His grace? 7 In weakness I was pressed with fear, But better hopes my spirit cheer; Past mercies lead me to rely Upon the help of God Most High. 8 Thy deeds, O Lord, will I relate And on thy wonders meditate; Thy way, O God, is just and right, And none is like to Thee in might. 9 Among the nations Thou hast shown Thy wondrous power and made it known; Thou art the God that mightily Redeemed and set Thy people free. 10 At sight of Thee the waters fled, The quaking clouds their torrents shed, The lightnings flashed, the thunder pealed, The trembling earth her fear revealed. 11 Thy way, O God, was in the sea, But, though Thy paths mysterious be, Thy people Thou didst safely keep As shepherds lead their helpless sheep. Scripture: Psalm 77 Used With Tune: SESSIONS

Tests of Christian Character

Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: The Righteous Character of; The Righteous Honor and Safety of First Line: Who, O Lord, with Thee abiding Lyrics: 1 Who, O Lord, with Thee abiding, In Thy house shall be Thy guest? Who, his feet to Zion turning, In Thy holy hill shall rest? He that ever walks uprightly, Does the right without a fear, When he speaks, he speaks not lightly, But with truth and love sincere. 2 He that slanders not his brother, Does no evil to a friend; To reproaches of another He refuses to attend. Wicked men win not his favor, But the good who fear the Lord; From his vow he will not waver, Tho' it bring him sad reward. 3 Freely to the needy lending, No excess he asks again; And the innocent befriending, He desires not praise of men. Doing this, and evil spurning, He shall nevermore be moved: This the man with Thee sojourning, This the man by Thee approved. Scripture: Psalm 15 Used With Tune: HELEN

Human Corruption

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 13 hymnals Topics: The Righteous Deliverances of First Line: The God Who sits enthroned on high Lyrics: 1 The God Who sits enthroned on high The foolish in their heart deny; Not one does good; corrupt in tho't, Unrighteous works their hands have wrought. 2 From heav'n the Lord with searching eye Looked down the sons of men to try, To see if any understood And sought for God, the only good. 3 From righteousness they all depart, Corrupt are all, and vile in heart; yea, ev'ry man has evil done; Not one does good, not even one. 4 Has knowledge with the wicked failed, That they My people have assailed, That they delight in works of shame, And call not on Jehovah's Name? 5 Thy lowly servant they despise, Because he on the Lord relies; But they shall tremble yet in fear, For to the righteous God is near. 6 O that from Zion His abode Salvation were on us bestowed! When God His exiles shall restore, They shall in song His grace adore. Scripture: Psalm 14 Used With Tune: LAUDS
