Restoring those that stray;
His testimony is most sure,
Proclaiming wisdom's way.
2 The precepts of the Lord are right;
With joy they fill the heart;
The Lord's commandments all are pure,
And clearest light impart.
3 The fear of God is undefiled
And ever shall endure;
The statutes of the Lord are truth
And righteousness most pure.
4 They warn from ways of wickedness
Displeasing to the Lord,
And in the keeping of His Word
There is a great reward.
5 What man can know his evil heart,
Discerning all his sin?
O cleanse me, Lord, from hidden faults,
And make me pure within.
6 From willful sins Thy servant keep,
No vantage let them gain;
From great transgressions thus made free,
I upright shall remain.
7 The words which from my mouth proceed,
The thoughts within my heart,
Accept, O Lord, for Thou my Rock
And my Redeemer art. Scripture: Psalm 19 Used With Tune: MOUNT AUBURN

Of the Lord his chief delight,
In God's law, divinely perfect,
Meditating day and night.
3 He is like a tree well planted
By the flowing river's side,
Ever green of leaf and fruitful;
Thus shall all his works abide.
4 Like the driven chaff the wicked
Shall be swept from off the land;
With the just they shall not gather,
Nor shall in the judgement stand.
5 Well the Lord will guard the righteous,
For their way to Him is known;
But the way of evildoers
Shall by Him be overthrown.

From all that pursue me O save and defend;
Lest they like a lion should rend me at will,
while no one is near me their raging to still.
2 When wronged without cause I have kindness returned;
But if I my neighbor maltreated and spurned,
My soul let the enemy seize for his prey,
My life and my honor in dust let him lay.
3 O Lord, in Thy wrath stay the rage of my foes;
Awake, and Thy judgment ordained interpose.
Let peoples surround Thee and wait at Thy feet,
While o'er them for judgment Thou takest Thy seat.
4 All nations of men shall be judged by the Lord;
To me, O Jehovah, just judgment accord,
As faithful and righteous in life I have been,
And ever integrity cherished within.
5 Establish the righteous, let evil depart,
For God Who is just tries the tho'ts of the heart.
In God for defense I have placed all my trust;
The upright He saves and He judges the just.
6 The Lord with the wicked is wroth every day,
And if they repent not is ready to slay;
By manifold ruin for others prepared
They surely at last shall themselves be ensnared.
7 Because He is righteous His praise I will sing,
Thanksgiving and honor to Him I will bring,
Will sing to the Lord on Whose grace I rely,
Extolling the Name of Jehovah Most High. Scripture: Psalm 7 Used With Tune: PAULINA

Bro't His people thro' the wave,
Drowned their foes beneath the deep,
Thro' the desert lead His sheep;
For His mercy doth endure,

He destroyed and put to shame,
Made their land a heritage
Fro His saints from age to age;
For His mercy doth endure,
Ever faithful, ever sure.

Rescued us from every foe,
Food to all doth He supply,

To contrite spirits help imparts.

Who trust in Him with holy fear.

when the world was begun,
and I danced in the moon
and the stars and the sun,
and I came down from heaven
and I danced on the earth;
at Bethlehem I had my birth.
[Refrain:]
Dance, then, wherever you may be;
I am the Lord of the dance, said he,
and I’ll lead you all, wherever you may be,
and I’ll lead you all in the dance, said he.
2 I danced for the scribe
and the pharisee,
but they would not dance
and they would not follow me;
I danced for the fishermen,
for James and John;
they came with me
and the dance went on. [Refrain]
3 I danced on the Sabbath
and I cured the lame;
the holy people
said it was a shame;
they whipped and they stripped
and they hung me high,
and they left me there
on a cross to die. [Refrain]
4 I danced on a Friday
when the sky turned black;
it’s hard to dance
with the devil on your back;
they buried my body
and they thought I’d gone,
but I am the dance
and I still go on. [Refrain]
5 They cut me down
and I leap up high;
I am the life
that will never, never die;
I’ll live in you
if you’ll live in me;
I am the Lord
of the dance, said he. [Refrain] Used With Tune: LORD OF THE DANCE
I Danced in the Morning
