But nations fear and kingdoms shake before God's thundering voice. 4 Since God is in the midst of it, the city walls shall stand, secure and safe with God's sure help, when trouble is at hand.

O how I love thy holy law!

Author: Isaac Watts Appears in 193 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O how I love thy holy law! 'Tis daily my delight; And thence my meditations draw Divine and advice by night. 2 How doth thy word my heart engage! How well employ my tongue!
