Hymnal: The Psalter #5 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: The Righteous Blessedness of; The Righteous Deliverances of First Line: O Lord, how are my foes increased! Lyrics: 1 O Lord, how are my foes increased!
Against me many rise;
How many say,In vain for help
He on his God relies!
2 Thou art my shield and glory, Lord,
My Saviour, O Most High.
The Lord from out His holy hill
Gives answer when I cry.
3 I laid me down and slept, I waked,
Because the Lord sustains;
Tho' many thousands compass me,
Unmoved my soul remains.
4 Arise, o Lord; save me, my God;
For Thou hast owned my cause,
And oft hast beaten down my foes
Who scorn Thy righteous laws.
5 Salvation to the Lord belongs,
In Him His saints are blest;
O let Thy blessing evermore
Upon Thy people rest.
