What evil shall I fear? 2 O Lord, regard me when I cry, In mercy hear me when I speak; Thou bidst me seek Thy face, and I, O Lord, with willing heart reply, Thy face, Lord, will I seek. 3 Hide not Thy face afar from me, For Thou a lone canst help afford; O cast me not away from Thee Nor let my soul forsaken be, My Saviour and my Lord. 4 Though earthly friends no pity take, Yet Thy compassion knows no end; E'en tho' my father shall forsake, E'en tho' my mother's love shall break, The Lord will be my friend. 5 My heart had failed in fear and woe Unless in God I had believed, Assured that He would mercy show And that my life His grace should know, Nor was my hope deceived. 6 Fear not, though succor be delayed, Still wait for God, and He will hear; Be strong, nor be thy heart dismayed, Wait, and the Lord shall bring thee aid, Yea, trust and never fear. Scripture: Psalm 27 Used With Tune: ST. MARGARET

How do Thy mercies close me round!

Author: C. Wesley, 1707-1788 Appears in 113 hymnals Topics: Protection, Divine Lyrics: 1 How do Thy mercies close me round! For ever be Thy name adored; I blush in all things to abound; The servant is above his Lord. 2 Inured to poverty and pain, A suffering life my Master led; The Son of God, the Son of Man, He had not where to lay His head. 3 But lo! a place He hath prepared For me, whom watchful angels keep Yea, He Himself becomes my guard; He smooths my bed, and gives me sleep. 4 Jesus protects; my fears, be gone; What can the Rock of ages move? Safe in Thine arms I lay me down, Thine everlasting arms of love. 5 While Thou art intimately nigh, Who, who shall violate my rest? Sin, earth, and hell I now defy; I lean upon my Saviour's breast. 6 I rest beneath the Almighty's shade; My griefs expire, my troubles cease; Thou, Lord, on whom my soul is stayed, Wilt keep me still in perfect peace.

The Lord from out His holy hill Gives answer when I cry. 3 I laid me down and slept, I waked, Because the Lord sustains; Tho' many thousands compass me, Unmoved my soul remains. 4 Arise, o Lord; save me, my God; For Thou hast owned my cause, And oft hast beaten down my foes Who scorn Thy righteous laws. 5 Salvation to the Lord belongs, In Him His saints are blest; O let Thy blessing evermore Upon Thy people rest.

Apart from Thee I long and thirst, And nought can satisfy; I wander in a desert land Where all the streams are dry. 2 The loving-kindness of my God Is more than life to me; So I will bless Thee while I live And lift my prayer to Thee. In Thee my soul is satisfied, My darkness turns to light, And joyful meditations fill The watches of the night. 3 My Saviour, 'neath Thy shelt'ring wings My soul delights to dwell; Still closer to Thy side I press, For near Thee all is well. My soul shall conquer ev'ry foe, Upholden by Thy hand; Thy people shall rejoice in God, Thy saints in glory stand. Scripture: Psalm 63 Used With Tune: THE GREEN HILL
