Trust in the Mercy of God

Hymnal: The Psalter #22 (1912) Topics: Sin Salvation from First Line: How long wilt thou forget me Lyrics: 1 How long wilt thou forget me, O Lord, Thou God of grace? How long shall fears beset me, While darkness hides Thy face? How long shall griefs distress me And turn my day to night? How long shall foes oppress me And triumph in their might? 2 O Lord my God, behold me, And hear my earnest cries; Lest sleep of death enfold me, Enlighten Thou mine eyes; Lest now my foe insulting Should boast of his success, And enemies exulting Rejoice in my distress. 3 But I with expectation Have on Thy grace relied; My heart in Thy salvation Shall still with joy confide. And I with voice of singing Will praise the Lord above, Who, richest bounties bringing, Has dealt with me in love. Scripture: Psalm 13 Languages: English Tune Title: OLIVA

Cleanse me from hidden stain; Keep me from willful sins, Nor let them o'er me reign; And then I upright shall appear And be from great transgressions clear. 5 When Thou dost search my life, May all my tho'ts within And all the words I speak Thy full approval win. O Lord, Thou art a rock to me, And my Redeemer Thou shalt be. Scripture: Psalm 19 Languages: English Tune Title: HADDAM

Filled with thy love, I dare proclaim The brightest honors of thy name. Scripture: Psalm 78 Languages: English
