Psalm 91
Author: James Montgomery Appears in 214 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:8 First Line: Call Jehovah thy salvation Lyrics: 1 Call Jehovah thy salvation,
Rest beneath the Almighty's shade;
In his secret habitation
Dwell, and never be dismayed:
There no tumult can alarm thee,
Thou shalt dread no hidden snare;
Guile nor violence can harm thee,
In eternal safeguard there.
2 From the sword, at noon-day wasting,
From the noisome pestilence;
In the depth of midnight, blasting,
God shall be thy sure defence:
Fear not thou the deadly quiver,
When a thousand feel the blow;
Mercy shall thy soul deliver,
Though ten thousand be laid low.
3 Since, with pure and firm affection,
Thou on God hast set thy love,
With the wings of his protection,
He will shield thee from above;
Thou shalt call on him in trouble,
He will hearken, he will save;
Here, for grief reward thee double,
Crown with life beyond the grave. Topics: Afflictions; Angels; Backsliding; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin Used With Tune: MANSFIELD
Psalm 91
"Keep me ever"
Author: John M. Neale Appears in 178 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 17:8 First Line: Holy Father, thou hast taught me Lyrics: 1 Holy Father, thou hast taught me
I should live to thee alone;
Year by year thy hand hath brought me
On through dangers oft unknown.
When I wandered, thou hast found me;
When I doubted, sent me light;
Still thine arm has been around me,
All my paths were in thy sight.
2 In the world will foes assail me,
Craftier, stronger far than I;
And the strife may never fail me,
Well I know, before I die.
Therefore, Lord, I come believing
Thou canst give the power I need;
Through the prayer of faith receiving
Strength--the Spirit's strength, indeed.
3 I would trust in thy protection,
Wholly rest upon thine arm;
Follow wholly thy direction,
Thou, mine only guard from harm!
Keep me from mine own undoing,
Help me turn to thee when tried,
Still my footsteps, Father, viewing,
Keep me ever at thy side. Topics: Afflictions; Backsliding; Christ Teacher; Christians Conflicts; Conflict With Sin Used With Tune: TRISTE

through thorny ways, leads to a joyful end.

3 Be still, my soul: the hour is hastening on
when we shall be for ever with the Lord,
when disappointment, grief and fear are gone,
sorrow forgotten, love's pure joy restored.

all safe and blessèd we shall meet at last. Topics: General Hymns Christian Vocation and Witness Used With Tune: FINLANDIA

How rich a lot is thine.

An honored life, a peaceful end,
And heaven to crown it all!
