Psalm 25 Part 1

Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 6.6.8.6 Appears in 113 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 25:1-11 First Line: I Lift my soul to God Lyrics: I Lift my soul to God, My trust is in his name: Let not my foes that seek my blood Still triumph in my shame. Sin, and the powers of hell, Persuade me to despair: Lord, make me know thy cov'nant well, That I may 'scape the snare. From the first dawning light Till the dark ev'ning rise, For thy salvation, Lord, I wait With ever-longing eyes. Remember all thy grace, And lead me in thy truth; Forgive the sins of riper days, And follies of my youth. The Lord is just and kind, The meek shall learn his ways, And every humble sinner find The methods of his grace. For his own goodness' sake He saves my soul from shame: He pardons, though my guilt be great, Through my Redeemer's name.
