Lord, be my Judge and thou shalt see
Author: T. S. Hymnal: The Whole Book of Psalms #XXVI (1790) Lyrics: 1 Lord, be my Judge, and thou shalt see
my paths be right and plain:
I trust in God, and hope that he
with strength will me sustain.
2 Prove me, my God, I thee desire,
my ways to search and try;
As men do prove their gold with fire,
my heart and reins espy.
3 Thy loving-kindness in my sight
I do behold always;
I ever walked in thy truth,
and will do all my days.
4 I do not love to haunt or use
with men whose deeds are vain;
To come in house I do refuse
with the deceitful train.
5 I much abhor the wicked sort,
their deeds I do despise;
I do not once to them resort
that hurtful things devise.
6 My hands I wash, and do proceed
in works to walk upright;
Then to thy altar I make speed,
to offer there in sight:
7 That I may speak and preach the praise,
that doth belong to thee,
And so declare how wondrous ways
thou hast been good to me.
8 O God, thy house I love most dear,
to me it doth excel;
My chief delight is to be near
the place where thou dost dwell.
9 O shut not up my soul with them
in sin that take their fill,
Nor yet my life among those men
that seek much blood to spill.
10 For in their hands much mischief is,
their lives therewith abound,
And nothing else in their right hand,
but bribes are to be found.
11 But I resolve in righteousness
my time and days to spend:
Therefore that I may not transgress,
let thy grace me defend.
12 My foot is stay'd for all assays,
it standeth well and right:
Wherefore to God will I give praise
in all the people's sight. Scripture: Psalm 26 Languages: English
Lord, be my Judge and thou shalt see
Judica me Domine
Author: T. S. Hymnal: The Whole Booke of Psalmes #12a (1640) First Line: Lord be my Judge and thou shalt see Lyrics: 1 Lord be my Judge, and thou shalt see,
my paths be right and plaine:
I trust in God, and hope that he
will strength me to remaine.
2 Prove me my God, I thee desire,
my waies to search and trie:
As men do prove their gold with fire,
my reines and heart espie.
3 Thy goodnesse laid before my face,
I durst behold alwaies:
For of thy truth i tread the trace,
and will do all my daie.
4 I do not lust to haunt or use,
with men whose deeds are vaine:
To come in house I do refuse,
with the deceitful traine.
5 I much abhorre the wicked sort,
their deeds I do despise:
I do not once to them resort,
that hurtfull things devise.
6 My hands I wash and do proceed,
in works to walk upright,
Then to thine altar I make speed,
to offer there in sight.
7 That I may speak and preach the praise
that doth belong to thee:
And so declare how wondrous waies
thou hast been good to me.
8 O God thy house I love most deare,
to me it doth excell:
I have delight, and would be neare
whereas thy grace doth dwell.
9 O shut not up my soule with them
in sin that take their fill:
Nor yet my life among those men
that seek much blood to spill.
10 Whose hands are heapt with craft and guile,
their lives thereof are full
And their right hand with wrench & wile
for bribes doth pluck and pull.
11 But I in righteousness intend
my time and daies to serve:
Have mercy Lord, and me defend,
so that I do not swerve.
12 My foot is staid for all assaies,
it standeth well and right:
Therefore to God will I give praise
in all the peoples sight. Scripture: Psalm 26 Languages: English
Judica me Domine
