Confident Access to God

Meter: 7.7.7.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Topics: Access to God First Line: In the fullness of thy grace Lyrics: 1 In the fulness of Thy grace To Thy house I will repair; Bowing tow'rd thy holy place, In Thy fear to worship there. Lead me in thy righteousness, Let my foes assail in vain; Lest my feet be turned aside, Make Thy way before me plain. 2 False and faithless are my foes, In their mouth no truth is found; Deadly are the words they speak, All their tho'ts with sin abound. Bring, O God, their plans to nought, Hold them guilty in thy sight, For against Thee and thy law They have set themselves to fight. 3 O let all that trust Thy care Ever glad and joyful be; Let them joy who love Thy Name, Safely guarded, Lord, by Thee. For a blessing from Thy store To the righteous Thou wilt yield; Thou wilt compass him about With Thy favor as a shield. Scripture: Psalm 5 Used With Tune: MARTYN
