God our Support and Comfort; or, Deliverance from Temptation and Perfection
Appears in 36 hymnals Topics: Afflicted Instruction by them; Instructive Affliction First Line: Who will arise and plead my Right Lyrics: 1 Who will arise and plead my Right
Against my num'rous Foes,
While Earth and Hell their Force unite,
And all my Hopes oppose?
2 Had not the Lord, my Rock, my Help,
Sustain'd my fainting Head,
My Life had now in Silence dwelt,
My Soul amongst the Dead.
3 Alas! my sliding Feet! I cry'd.
Thy Promise was my Prop;
Thy Grace stood constant by my Side,
Thy Spirit bore me up.
4 While Multitudes of mournful Thoughts
Within my Bosom roll,
Thy boundless Love forgives my Faults,
Thy Comforts chear my Soul.
5 Pow'rs of Iniquity may rise,
And frame pernicious Laws;
But GOD my Refuge, rules the Skies,
He will defend my Cause.
6 Let Malice vent her Rage aloud,
Let bold Blasphemers scoff;
The Lord our GOD shall judge the Proud,
And cut the Sinners off. Scripture: Psalm 94:16-23

And that your Days be long,
Let not a false or spiteful Word
Be found upon your Tongue.
2 Depart from Mischief, practise Love,
Pursue the Works of Peace;
So shall the Lord your Ways approve,
And set your Souls at Ease.
3 His Eyes awake to guard the Just,
His Ears attend their Cry;
When broken Spirits dwell in Dust,
The GOD of Grace is nigh.
4 What tho' the Sorrows here they taste
Are sharp and tedious too,
The Lord who saves them all at last,
Is their Supporter now.
5 Evil shall smite the Wicked dead;
But GOD secures his own,
Prevents the Mischief when they slide,
Or heals the broken Bone.
6 When Desolation, like a Flood,
O'er the proud Sinner rolls,
Saints find a Refuge in their God,
For he redeem'd their Souls. Scripture: Psalm 34:11-22

Thy Word Sheds Light upon My Path
By nature all men are sinners
Appears in 62 hymnals Topics: Children instructed; Children instructed First Line: Fools in their hearts believe and say Lyrics: 1 Fools in their hearts believe and say,
"That all religion’s vain,
"There is no God that reigns on high,
"Or minds th’ affairs of men."
2 From thoughts so dreadful and profane
Corrupt discourse proceeds;
And in their impious hands are found
Abominable deeds.
3 The Lord, from his celestial throne
Look'd down on things below,
To find the man that sought his grace,
Or did his justice know.
4 By nature all are gone astray,
Their practice all the same;
There’s none that fears his Maker’s hand,
There’s none that loves his name.
5 Their tongues are us'd to speak deceit,
Their slanders never cease;
How swift to mischief are their feet;
Nor know the paths of peace.
6 Such seeds of sin (that bitter root)
In every heart are found;
Nor can they bear diviner fruit,
'Till grace refine the ground. Scripture: Psalm 14
By nature all men are sinners
Consider that the righteous man
Appears in 8 hymnals Topics: Instructive Psalms Lyrics: 1 Consider that the righteous man
Is God's peculiar choice:
And when to him I make my pray'r,
He always hears my voice.
2 Then stand in awe of his commands;
Flee ev'ry thing that's ill;
Commune in private with your hearts,
And bind them to his will.
3 The place of other sacrifice
Let righteousness supply;
And let your hope, securely fix'd,
On God alone rely.
4 While worldly minds impatient grow,
More prosp'rous times to see;
Still let the glories of thy face
shine brightly, Lord, on me.
5 So shall my heart o'er flow with joy
More lasting and more true,
Than theirs, who stores of corn and wine
Successively renew.
6 Then down in peace I'll lay my head,
And take my needful rest:
No other guard, O Lord, I crave,
Of thy defence posses'd. Scripture: Psalm 4 Text Sources: Tate and Brady's New Version
Consider that the righteous man
