Psalm 62
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 126 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62:5-12 First Line: My spirit looks to God alone Lyrics:
My spirit looks to God alone;
My rock and refuge is his throne;
In all my fears, in all my straits,
My soul on his salvation waits.
Trust him, ye saints, in all your ways,
Pour out your hearts before his face:
When helpers fail, and foes invade,
God is our all-sufficient aid.
False are the men of high degree,
The baser sort are vanity;
Laid in the balance, both appear
Light as a puff of empty air.
Make not increasing gold your trust,
Nor set your hearts on glitt'ring dust
Why will you grasp the fleeting smoke,
And not believe what God has spoke?
Once has his awful voice declared,
Once and again my ears have heard,
"All power is his eternal due;
He must be feared and trusted too."
For sovereign power reigns not alone,
Grace is a partner of the throne:
Thy grace and justice, mighty Lord,
Shall well divide our last reward.

My Soul for Help on God relies
Appears in 23 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 My Soul for Help on God relies,
2 From Him alone my Safety flows;
My Rock, my Health, that strength supplies,
To bear the Shock of all my Foes.
3 How long will ye contrive my Fall,
Which will but hasten on your own!
You'll totter like a bending Wall,
Or Fence of uncemented Stone.
4 To make my envy'd Honours less,
They strive with Lyes, their chief Delight;
For they, tho' with their Mouths they bless,
In private curse with inward Spite.
5,6 But thou, my Soul, on God rely;
On Him alone thy Trust repose:
My Rock, and Health will Strength supply,
To bear the Shock of all my foes.
7 God does His saving Health dispense,
And flowing Blessings daily send;
He is my Fortress and Defence;
On Him my Soul shall still depend.
8 In Him, ye People always trust;
Before his Throne pour out your Hearts;
For God, the Merciful and Just,
His timely Aid to us imparts.
9 The Vulgar fickle are and frail;
The Great dissemble and betray;
And, laid in Truth's impartial Scale,
The lightest Things will both outweigh.
10 Then trust not in oppressive Ways;
By Spoil and Rapine grow not vain;
Nor let your Hearts, if Wealth increase,
Be set too much upon your Gain.
11 For God has oft His Will express'd,
And I this Truth have fully known;
to be of boundless Pow'r possess'd,
Belongs, of Right, to God alone.
12 Though Mercy is His darling Grace,
In which He chiefly takes Delight;
Yet will He all the human Race
According to their Works requite.

Psalm 62: My soul with expectation
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: My soul with expectation Lyrics:
1My soul with expectation
depends on God indeed;
My strength and my salvation doth
from him alone proceed.
2He only my salvation is,
and my strong rock is he:
He only is my sure defence;
much mov’d I shall not be.
3How long will ye against a man
plot mischief? ye shall all
Be slain; ye as a tott’ring fence
shall be, and bowing wall.
4They only plot to cast him down
from his excellency:
They joy in lies; with mouth they bless,
but they curse inwardly.
5My soul, wait thou with patience
upon thy God alone;
On him dependeth all my hope
and expectation.
6He only my salvation is,
and my strong rock is he;
He only is my sure defence:
I shall not moved be.
7In God my glory placed is,
and my salvation sure;
In God the rock is of my strength,
my refuge most secure.
8Ye people, place your confidence
in him continually;
Before him pour ye out your heart:
God is our refuge high.
9Surely mean men are vanity,
and great men are a lie;
In balance laid, they wholly are
more light than vanity.
10Trust ye not in oppression,
in robb’ry be not vain;
On wealth set not your hearts, when as
increased is your gain.
11God hath it spoken once to me,
yea, this I heard again,
That power to Almighty God
alone doth appertain.
12Yea, mercy also unto thee
belongs, O Lord, alone:
For thou according to his work
rewardest ev’ry one.

upheld by my righteous, omnipotent hand.

the rivers of sorrow shall not overflow;
for I will be near thee, thy troubles to bless,
and sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.

my grace, all sufficient, shall be thy supply;
the flame shall not hurt thee; I only design
thy dross to consume, and thy gold to refine.
5 "The soul that on Jesus hath leaned for repose,
I will not, I will not desert to its foes;
that soul, though all hell should endeavor to shake,
I'll never, no, never, no, never forsake."

God Moves in a Mysterious Way
Author: William Cowper Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 1,132 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62:1-8 Lyrics: 1 God moves in a mysterious way
his wonders to perform.
He plants his footsteps in the sea
and rides upon the storm.
2 Deep in unfathomable mines
of never-failing skill,
he treasures up his bright designs
and works his sovereign will.
3 You fearful saints, fresh courage take;
the clouds you so much dread
are big with mercy and shall break
in blessings on your head.
4 His purposes will ripen fast,
unfolding every hour.
The bud may have a bitter taste,
but sweet will be the flower.
5 Blind unbelief is sure to err
and scan his work in vain.
God is his own interpreter,
and he will make it plain.

A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: Truly my waiting soul on God Lyrics: 1 Truly my waiting soul on GOD
in silent hope relies:
For my salvation wholly does
from Him alone arise.
2 He only my salvation is,
My rock of strength is He;
My only sure defence and tow'r,
mov'd much I shall not be.
3 How long against a man will ye
plot mischief? you shall fall;
For as a tott'ring fence ye are,
and like a bowing wall.
4 To cast him from his dignity,
conspiring they devise;
Bless with their mouth, but curse in heart,
and take delight in lies.
5 My soul wait thou on GOD alone:
my only hope is He;
6 My rock, my saviour, my high tow'r,
I shall not moved be.
7 In GOD alone my glory is,
and my salvation sure:
In GOD the rock of all my strength
my refuge most secure.
8 Ye people, place your confidence
on him continually:
Pour out your hearts before his face:
God is our refuge high.
9 Sure mean men's sons are vanity,
And high men's sons a lie;
When all are in a balance laid,
they rise like vanity.
10 Then trust not in oppressive ways,
by rapine grow not vain;
Nor let your hearts, if wealth increase,
be set on earthly gain.
11 Once spoken hath the mighty GOD,
yea, twice I heard Him loud;
That sov'reign and almighty pow'r
belongs alone to GOD.
12 Yea boundless mercy appertains
to Thee, O Lord, alone;
And Thou according to his work
rewardest ev'ry one.

Nonne Deo
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: My soul to God shall give good heed Lyrics: 1 My soul to God shal give good heed,
and him alone attend:
For why? my health and hope to speed,
doth whole on him depend.
2 For he alone is my defence,
my rock, my health and aid:
He is my stay that no pretence
shall make me much dismaid.
3 O wicked folk! how long will ye
use craft? sure ye must fall:
For as a rotten hedge ye be,
and like a tottering wall.
4 Whom God doth love ye seek alwaie
to put him to the worse:
Ye love to lie, with mouth ye praise,
and yet your heart doth curse.
5 Yet still my soule doth whole depend
on God my chiefe desire:
From all ill feats me to defend,
none but him I require.
6 He is my rock, my fort and tower,
my health is of his grace:
He doth support me that no power
can move me out of place.
7 God is my glory and my health,
my soules desire and lust:
My fort, my strength, my stay, my wealth,
God is my only trust.
8 O have your trust in him alway,
ye folk with one accord:
Powre out your hearts to him, and say,
our trust is in the Lord.
9 The sons of men deceitfull are,
on ballance but a sleight:
With things most vain do them compare
for they can keep no weight.
10 Trust not in wrong, robbery, nor stealth,
let vaine delights be gone:
Though goods well got flow in w' wealth,
set not your hearts thereon.
11 The Lord long since one thing did tel,
which here to mind I call:
He spake it oft, I heard it well,
that he alone doth all.
12 And that thou Lord are good & kind
thy mercy doth exceed:
So that all sorts with thee shall find,
according to their deed.

Guide Me, O My Great Redeemer
Author: William Williams; Peter Williams Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7.7 Appears in 1,832 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62:1 Lyrics: 1 Guide me, O my great Redeemer,
pilgrim through this barren land;
I am weak, but you are mighty;
hold me with your powerful hand.
Bread of heaven, bread of heaven,
feed me now and evermore,
feed me now and evermore.
2 Open now the crystal fountain,
where the healing waters flow.
Let the fire and cloudy pillar
lead me all my journey through.
Strong Deliverer, strong Deliverer,
ever be my strength and shield,
ever be my strength and shield.
3 When I tread the verge of Jordan,
bid my anxious fears subside.
Death of death, and hell's destruction,
land me safe on Canaan's side.
Songs of praises, songs of praises
I will ever sing to you,
I will ever sing to you.
