Hymnal: Psalms, carefully suited to the Christian worship in the United States of America #253 (1791) First Line: Behold thy waiting servant, Lord Lyrics: 1 Behold thy waiting servant, Lord,
Devoted to thy fear;
Remember and confirm thy word,
For all my hopes are there.
2 Hast thou not writ salvation down,
And promis'd quick'ning grace?
Doth not my heart address thy throne?
And yet thy love delays.
3 Mine eyes for thy salvation fail;
O bear thy servant up;
Nor let the scoffing lips prevail,
Who dare reproach my hope.
4 Didst thou not raise my faith, O Lord?
Then let thy truth appear:
Saints shall rejoice in my reward,
And trust as well as fear. Scripture: Psalm 119:38 Languages: English
