O Thou whose justice reigns on high

Hymnal: Church Hymn Book #P.LVI (1816) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Deliverance from Oppression and Falsehood Lyrics: 1 O Thou whose justice reigns on high, And makes the oppressor cease, Behold how envious sinners try To vex and break my peace. 2 The sons of violence and lies Join to devour me, Lord; But as my hourly dangers rise, My refuge is thy word. 3 In God most holy, just, and true, I have repos'd my trust; Nor will I fear what flesh can do, The offspring of the dust. 4 They wrest my words to mischief still, Charge me with unknown faults; For mischiefs all their counsels fill, And malice all their thoughts. 5 Shall they 'scape without thy frown? Must their devices stand? Oh cast the haughty sinner down, And let him know thy hand! 6 God counts the sorrows of his saints, Their groans affect his ears; Thy mercy counts my just complaints, And numbers all my tears. 7 When to thy throne I raise my cry, The wicked fear and flee; So swift is pray'r to reach the sky, So near is God to me. 8 In thee, most holy, just and true, I have repos'd my trust; Nor will I fear what man can do, The offspring of the dust. 9 Thy solemn vows are on me, Lord, Thou shalt receive my praise; I’ll sing, How faithful is thy word! How righteous all thy ways! 10 Thou hast secur'd my soul from death, O set thy pris'ner free, That heart and hand, and life and breath May be employ'd for thee. Scripture: Psalm 56 Languages: English

O Jehovah, Hear My Words

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #9 (1934) Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Topics: Falsehood Lyrics: 1 O Jehovah, hear my words, To my thoughts attentive be; Hear my cry, my King, my God, I will make my prayer to Thee. With the morning light, O Lord, Thou shalt hear my voice arise, And expectant I will bring Prayer as morning sacrifice. 2 Thou, Jehovah, art a God Who delightest not in sin; Evil shall not dwell with Thee, Nor the proud Thy favor win. Evil-doers Thou dost hate, Lying tongues Thou wilt defeat; God abhors the man who loves Violence and base deceit. 3 In the fulness of Thy grace To Thy house I will repair; Bowing toward Thy holy place, In Thy fear to worship there. Lead me in Thy righteousness, Let my foes assail in vain; Lest my feet be turned aside, Make Thy way before me plain. 4 False and faithless are my foes, In their mouth no truth is found; Deadly are the words they speak, All their thoughts with sin abound. Bring, O God, their plans to naught, Hold them guilty in Thy sight, For against Thee and Thy law They have set themselves to fight. 5 O let all that trust Thy care Ever glad and joyful be; Let them joy who love Thy Name, Safely guarded, Lord, by Thee. For a blessing from Thy store To the righteous Thou wilt yield; Thou wilt compass him about With Thy favor as a shield. Scripture: Psalm 5 Languages: English Tune Title: REHOBOTH

Who, O Lord, with Thee Abiding

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #21 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Falsehood 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 Languages: English Tune Title: HELEN

Lord, Thou dost strength impart; Then free me from the snare Which foes for me, with wicked art, Did secretly prepare. 3 My spirit unto Thee I trustfully commend; Jehovah, God of truth, to me Thou didst redemption send. I hate the false and vain, My trust is in the Lord, And still my heart in joyous strain Thy mercy will record. Scripture: Psalm 31 Languages: English Tune Title: LEBANON

Be Thou My Helper in the Strife

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #67 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 D Topics: Falsehood Lyrics: 1 Be Thou my helper in the strife, O Lord, my strong Defender be; Thy mighty shield protect my life, Thy spear confront the enemy. Amid the conflict, O my Lord, Thy precious promise let me hear, The faithful, reassuring word: I am thy Savior, do not fear. 2 Ashamed, confounded let them be Who seek my ruin and disgrace; O let Thy angel fight for me, And drive my foes before his face. Without a cause my life they sought, Without a case their plots they laid; Themselves within their snares be caught, And be my crafty foes dismayed. 3 My soul is joyful in the Lord, In His salvation I rejoice; To Him my heart will praise accord And bless His Name with thankful voice. For who, O Lord, is like to Thee, Defender of the poor and meek? The needy Thy salvation see When mighty foes their ruin seek. 4 Unrighteous witnesses have stood And told of crimes beyond belief; Returning evil for my good, They overwhelm my soul with grief. When in affliction they were sad, I wept and made their grief my own; But in my trouble they are glad And strive that I may be o'erthrown. 5 O Lord, how long wilt Thou delay? My soul for Thy salvation waits; My thankfulness I will display Amid the crowds that throng Thy gates. Let not my enemies rejoice And wrongfully exult o'er me; They speak not peace, but lift their voice To trouble those that peaceful be. 6 My foes with joy my woes survey, But Thou, O Lord, hast seen it all; O be no longer far away, Nor silent when on Thee I call. O haste to my deliverance now, O Lord, my righteous cause maintain; My Lord and God alone art Thou; Awake, and make thy justice plain. 7 O Lord my God, I look to Thee, Be Thou my righteous Judge, I pray; Let not my foes exult o'er me And laugh with joy at my dismay. With shame and trouble those requite Who would my righteous cause destroy; But those who in the good delight, Let them be glad and shout for joy. 8 Yea, let the Lord be magnified, Because Thy servants Thou dost bless; And I, from morn till eventide, Will daily praise Thy righteousness. My soul is joyful in the Lord, In His salvation I rejoice; To Him my heart will praise accord And bless His Name with thankful voice. Scripture: Psalm 35 Languages: English Tune Title: HE LEADETH ME

The Trespass of the Wicked Man

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #68 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Falsehood Lyrics: 1 The trespass of the wicked man Most plainly testifies That fear of God's most holy Name Is not before his eyes. 2 He cherishes the empty hope, Although his sin be great, It never shall be brought to light And viewed with righteous hate. 3 The words he utters with his mouth Are wickedness and lies; He keeps himself from doing good, And ceases to be wise. 4 While on his bed his thought he gives To planning wickedness; He sets himself in evil ways, he shuns not to transgress.
