Representative Text

1 O God, my strength, on Thee I wait,
To Thee for refuge flee;
My God with mercy will defend,
Triumphant I shall be.

Refrain:
Send out Thy light,
Thy light and truth,
O let them lead and guide,
Send out Thy light,
Thy light and truth,
O let them lead and guide me.

2 O send Thou forth Thy light and truth,
Let them be guides to me,
And bring me to Thy holy hill,
Thy dwelling-place to see. [Refrain]

3 Then will I to God’s altar go,
To God, my boundless joy;
Yea, God, my God, Thy Name to praise
My harp I will employ. [Refrain]

4 To Thee, O God most merciful,
My thankful song I raise;
My might, my strong, secure abode,
I will proclaim Thy praise. [Refrain]
