Send aid, and save me from my foes
Author: J. H. Hymnal: The Whole Book of Psalms #LIX (1790) Lyrics: 1 Send aid, and save me from my foes,
O Lord, I pray to thee;
Defend and keep me from all those,
that rise and strive with me.
2 O Lord, preserve me from those men,
Whose doings are not good,
And set me sure and safe from them,
that thirst still after blood.
3 For lo, they wait my soul to take,
they rage against me still;
Yea, for no fault that I did make,
I never did them ill:
4 They run and do themselves prepare,
when I no whit offend;
Arise, and save me from their snare,
and see what they intend.
5 Arise, O God of Israel,
smite ev'ry heathen land;
And pity none that do rebel,
and in their mischief stand.
6 At night they run and seek about,
like dogs they howl also,
And all the city quite throughout
from place to place they go:
7 They speak of me with mouth alway,
but in their lips are swords;
They have contriv'd my death, and say,
There's no one hears our words.
8 But Lord, thou hast their ways espy'd,
and thou shalt them disgrace;
The heathen folk thou dost deride,
and mock them to their face.
9 The strength that doth our foes withstand,
O Lord, doth come from thee;
Thou art, O God, my help at hand,
a fort and fence to me.
10 The Lord to me doth show his grace
in great abundance still,
That I may see my foes in case
such as my heart doth will.
The Second Part.
11 Destroy them not at once, O Lord,
lest it from mind do fall;
But with thy strength drive them abroad,
and so consume them all.
12 For their ill words and lying tongue
confound them in their pride,
Their wicked oaths with lies and wrong
let all the world deride.
13 That men may know thro'out the world
that Jacob's God doth reign.
Consume them in thy wrath, O Lord,
that nought of them remain;
14 At ev'ning they return apace,
as dogs they grin and cry;
Throughout the streets in ev'ry place
they run about and spy:
15 They seek about for meat alway,
but let them not be fed,
Nor find a house wherein they may
be bold to put their head.
16 But I will shew thy strength abroad,
thy goodness I will praise;
For thou art my defence and God
in time of need always.
17 Thou art my strength, thou hast me stay'd,
O Lord, I sing to thee;
Thou art my fort, my fence, and aid,
a loving God to me. Scripture: Psalm 59 Languages: English
Send aid, and save me from my foes
Eripe me
Author: J. H. Hymnal: The Whole Booke of Psalmes #31 (1640) First Line: Send aid and save me from my foes Lyrics: 1 Send aid and save me from my foes,
O Lord, I pray to thee:
Defend and keep me from all those,
that rise and strive with me.
2 O Lord preserve me from those men
Whose doings are not good:
And set me sure and safe from them
that thirst still after bloud.
3 For lo they wait my soule to take,
they rage against me still:
Yea for no fault that I did make,
I never did them ill.
4 They run and do themselves prepare,
when I no whit offend:
Arise and save me from their snare,
and see what they intend.
5 O Lord of hosts of Israel,
arise and strike all lands:
And pitie none that do rebell,
and in their mischiefs stands.
6 At night they stir and seek about,
as hounds they houle and grin:
And all the City cleane throughout
from place to place they run.
7 They speak of me with mouth alway,
but in their lips are swords:
They greed my death, & then would say,
what? none doth heare our words.
8 But Lord, thou hast their waies espide,
and laught thereat apace:
The heathen folk thou dost deride,
and mock them to their face.
9 The strength that doth our foes withstand,
O Lord doth come from thee:
My God he is my help at hand,
a fort and fence to mee.
10 The Lord to me doth shew his grace,
in great abundance still:
That I may see my foes in case
such as my heart doth will.
The second Part:
11 Destroy them not at once O Lord,
lest it from mind do fall:
But with thy strength drive them abroad
and so consume them all.
12 For their ill words & truthlesse tongue
confound them in their pride:
Their wicked oaths with lies and wrong
let all the world deride.
13 Consume them in thy wrath O Lord,
that nought of them remaine;
That men may know throughout ye world
that Jacobs God doth raigne.
14 At evening they run apace,
as dogs they grin and crie:
Throughout the streets in every place
they run about and spie.
15 They seek about for meat I say,
but let them not be fed:
Nor find a house wherein they may
be bold to put their head.
16 But I will shew thy strength abroad,
thy goodnesse I will praise;
For thou art my defence and God
at need in all assaies.
17 Thou art my strength, thou hast me staid,
O Lord I sing to thee:
Thou art my fort, my fence and aid,
a loving God to me.
