Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 132 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: O God! Thou art my God alone; Early to Thee my soul shall cry, A pilgrim in a land unknown, A thirsty land whose Springs are dry. Oh! that it were as it hath been, When, praying in the holy place, Thy power and glory I have seen, And mark'd the footsteps of Thy grace! Yet through this rough and thorny maze, I follow hard on Thee, my God! Thine hand unseen upholds my ways, I safely tread where Thou hast trod. Thee, in the watches of the night, When I remember on my bed, Thy presence makes the darkness light, Thy guardian wings are round my head. Better than life itself Thy love, Dearer than all beside to me; For whom have I in heaven above, Or who on earth, compared with Thee? 71 Praise with my heart, my mind, my voice, For all Thy mercy I will give; My soul shall still in God rejoice, My tongue shall bless Thee while I live.

In silence my soul is waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 2 You set on a man and you beat him, the pack of you knock him down; as a tottering wall he staggers, sub-sides like a sagging fence. In silence my soul is waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 3 You plot for his undermining, you slander him with your lies; you love, with faint praise, to damn him; sweet tongued, you've a curse-filled heart. In silence my soul is waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 4 Be silent, my soul, in waiting, in waiting for God alone; assurance from him is coming, my rescuer, fort, and rock. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 5 There's safety in God, and honor, my refuge, my rock, my strength, so hide in our God, you people, and pour out your hearts to him. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 6 Just puffs of the wind, the people, great men are illusions, all; as breath in the air, they're measured, then weightless they fade away. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 7 Don't trust, then, in cruel extortion, don't plunder, defraud, and steal; don't set your heart on possessions, especially if they increase. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. 8 Uniquely, our God has spoken, of two things I've heard him speak; he's the source of pow'r and mercy; to men he repays their deeds. Be silent, my soul in waiting; secure, I shall not be moved. Topics: Deliverance; Waiting upon God ; The Christian Life Trust in God Used With Tune: SILENCE

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.

That steward accus'd to his Lord

Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 That steward accus'd to his Lord, Soon heard that solemn fatal word; Come quickly give account to me: Thou can'st no longer steward be. 2 Shew thy account and state thy case: Thou shalt no longer keep that place-- My goods, to thee I can't intrust, Since I do hear thou art unjust. 3 On earth as stewards we are plac'd, Not to neglect, destroy, or waste; The gifts and graces God doth give, But to improve them while we live. 4 Before the Lord we must appear, To answer for our steward-ships here; We must account to God alone, For all that we on earth have done. 5 Then let us seek and strive to know, And humbly ask what we shall do; To fit us for the time to come When we must seek another home. 6 The text directs you very plain, How to this home you may attain; Pray notice well and understand The great Jehovah's just command. 7 If you have riches less or more, And there with help, the helpless poor-- Then may you ever hope to speed, And find a home when you shall need.

Truly, my Soul doth wait on God

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1. Truly, my Soul doth wait on God, Salvation comes from him alone. 2. My Rock, my Safety, high Abode, He is, I shall not be o'er thrown. 3. How long, against a Man, will ye Plot Mischief? as a bowing Wall, Or a loose Fence, you all shall be; And into sudden Ruin fall. 4. Their great Consult is, to suppress My Dignity with lying Arts; If e'er their Mouth is forc'd to bless, Yet Cursing rages in their Hearts. 5. My Soul wait thou on God alone; From him my Hopes have stedfast prov'd. 6. My Rock, and Safety, him I own; My high Tow'r, I shall not be mov'd. 7. In God my Safety is secure. My future Glory and Renown; The Rock in whom my Strength is sure, My Refuge is in God alone. 8. Ye People, in his Pow'r, and Grace, At all Times your fix'd Trust repose; Pour out your Hearts before his Face: God is our Refuge from our Foes. 9. The vulgar are but vain, we know, And great Men are Deceit, and Lies; If both you in the Ballance throw, Lighter than Vanity they rise. 10. Trust not in Methods of Deceit, Or Violence; be not so vain; If by just Means your Wealth grows great, Set not your Heart on such low Gain. 11. Once spoken hath the God of Might, Twice have I heard this Word aloud; That boundless Pow'r by sov'rain Right, Doth appertain alone to God. 12. Not only Pow'r but wondrous Grace, Also, O Lord, belongs to Thee; Therefore, to all the human Race, Thou render'st, as their Works shall be.

When Christ let his Disciples know

Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 When Christ let his Disciples know, That he should soon depart: And leave them to this world below-- It griev'd them to their heart. 2 To them he also testified, What sorrows they would have: That they should see him crucified, And laid into the grave. 3 Sure that was more distressing still, Such words as these to hear; And much contrary to their will, That Christ such things should bear. 4 They hop'd a great and better thing, When first with him they join'd; They hop'd that he would be their King, And govern to their mind. 5 God's counsels were to them unknown, They knew not his decree; That Jesus should for sin attone, By dying on the tree. 6 When we first join with Jesus too, Our hearts are over joy'd; When we have him no more in view, Then is our peace destroy'd. 7 Like the Disciples we do mourn, When Jesus disappears; Like they we find reproach and scorn, And many doubts and fears. 8 But our great consolation is: He will return again-- If we but trust his promises, Our peace shall still remain.

God Is Our Song

Author: Fred Pratt Green (1903-) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: God is our song, and every singer blest Lyrics: 1 God is our song, and every singer blest who, giving praise, finds energy and rest. All who praise God with unaffected joy give back to us the blessing we destroy. 2 God is our song, for Jesus comes to save; while praising him, we offer all we have. New songs we sing, in ventures new unite, when Jesus leads us upward into light. 3 This is the song no conflict ever drowns; who praises God all human wrath disowns. Love knows what rich complexities of sound God builds upon a simple, common ground. 4 God is our silence when no songs are sung, when ecstasy or sorrow stills the tongue. Glorious the faith which silently obeys until we find again the voice of praise. Topics: Adoration; Arts and Music; Praise of God Used With Tune: FARLEY CASTLE

My soul rests only on her mighty God

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 My soul rests only on her mighty God; From him her safety and her strength has flow'd; 2 My rock of refuge he, my sure defence; Hence, ye vain fears; ye idle terrors, hence! 3 Ye sons of mischief, with weak malice fraught, How long will ye indulge each treach'rous thought! Soon shall ye be destroy'd; ye soon shall fall, And break to pieces, like a tumbling wall. 4 Vainly you all your empty efforts try, To ruin him whom God exalts on high; Vainly you false designing friendships feign; Vain are your lies; your imprecations vain. 5 Mean while, my soul, rest on thy mighty God; From him thy safety and thy strength hath flow'd; 6 Thy rock of refuge he, thy sure defence; Hence ye vain fears; ye idle terrors hence! 8 On him, ye people, constantly rely; Pour forth your hearts, he'll not the boon deny. 9 Surely the great, the proudest potentate, And the poor wretch that mourns his abject state, 'Fore him are equal;--weigh them in the scales With vanity, and vanity prevails. 10 Trust not in wealth, by violence obtain'd; 'Twill go as fleetly, as 'twas basely gain'd; Riches flow in, but make them not your boast; Swiftly they wing away, and soon are lost. 11 Once God hath spoke, and twice I've heard him say, To him alone belongs eternal sway ; 12 And I'll avow, and speak it all abroad, Justice and mercy both belong to God.

My Soul for Help on GOD relies

Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 My Soul for Help on GOD relies, On GOD, who daily Strength supplies. To his blest Will I am resigned; From Him alone my Courage flows, To bear the Shock of all my Foes, When they against me are combined. 2 How long will ye my Fall contrive? How long will ye against me strive, And hasten on your own unding? You'll totter like a bending Wall, Like uncemented Stones shall fall, And lie involv'd in sudden Ruin. 3 They daily Lies against me frame, With Falshoods wound my spotless Name, In secret still my Fall designing: They strive to make my Honours less, Though with their Mouths they seem to bless, Their hearts to Curses are inclining. 4 But thou, my Soul, on GOD rely, Who does continual Strength supply; To his blest Will be thou resigned: From him alone my Courage flows, To bear the Shock of all my Foes, When they against me are combined. Part II 5 GOD does His saving Health dispense, He is my Fortress and Defence; My Soul on him alone depending: In him ye People always trust, For GOD, the merciful and just, His timely Aid is ever sending. 6 The Vulgar fickle are and frail; The great Ones oft in Judgment fail, Or else are treach'rously betraying: If in the Scale of Truth they're laid, 'Tis seen how lightly both are made, The smallest Trifles them outweighing. 7 Then trust not in oppressive Ways, Nor strive by lawless Force to raise, Your growing Heaps of ill-got Treasure: By Spoil and Rapine grow not vain, Nor let your Hearts on worldly Gain, Be fixt with such Delight and Pleasure. 8 For GOD has oft his Will express'd, And is of boundless Pow'r possess'd; In him are Grace and Truth united: Belongs, of Right, to God alone. Though Mercy is his Works takes Place, Yet for their Deeds, the human Race, Shall by his Justice be requited.
