I praise Him for pardon, for cleansing from sin; His promise, for me, hath suffic’d; I know I am safe and at last shall go in To dwell with the Comforting Christ.

How long shall they afflict Thy saints And devastate Thy chosen land? 3 The widow and the fatherless They slay, and helpless strangers smith; The faithful God they do not fear, They say the Lord will not requite. 4 Be wise, ye fools and brutish men; Shall not He see Who formed the eye? Shall not He hear Who formed the ear, And judge, Who reigneth, God Most High? 5 The Lord will judge in righteousness, From Him all truth and knowledge flow; The foolish thoughts of wicked men, How vain they are the Lord doth know. 6 That man is blest whom Thou, O Lord, With chastening hand dost teach Thy will, For in the day when sinners fall That man in peace abideth still. 7 The Lord will not cast off His own, Nor His inheritance forsake; Just judgment shall at length prevail, And upright hearts shall courage take. 8 Who will arise for my defense Against the wicked in the land? Against iniquity and wrong What man for me will valiant stand? 9 Unless the Lord had been my help, My life had quickly passed away; But when my foot had almost slipped, O Lord, Thy mercy was my stay. 10 Amid the doubts that fill my mind Thy comforts, Lord, bring joy to me; Can wickedness, though throned in might, Have fellowship, O Lord, with Thee? 11 The wicked, in their might arrayed, Against the righteous join their power, But to the Lord I flee for help, He is my refuge and my tower. 12 Our God, the refuge of His saints, Will fight against iniquity; Avenger of the innocent The Lord omnipotent will be.

When in the hour of utmost need

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #16 (1898) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Cross and Comfort Lyrics: 1 When in the hour of utmost need We know not where to look for aid; When days and nights of anxious thought Nor help nor counsel yet have brought: 2 Then this our comfort is alone, That we may meet before Thy throne, And cry, O faithful God, to Thee For rescue from our misery; 3 To Thee may raise our hearts and eyes, Repenting sore with bitter sighs, And seek Thy pardon for our sin, And respite from our griefs within. 4 For Thou hast promised graciously To hear all those who cry to Thee, Through Him whose name alone is great, Our Saviour and our Advocate. 5 And thus we come, O God, to-day, And all our woes before Thee lay; For tried, afflicted, lo! we stand, Peril and foes on every hand. 6 Ah, hide not for our sins Thy face; Absolve us through Thy boundless grace; Be with us in our anguish still, Free us at last from every ill; 7 That so with all our hearts we may Once more our glad thanksgivings pay, And walk obedient to Thy Word, And now and ever praise Thee, Lord.

May we sing for joy when we see the battle won, when the LORD has heard and answered every prayer. 3 Now I know that God will encourage those he loves; he will hear and answer from on high. Not a word shall fail of the promise he has made, nor the works of his victorious right hand. 4 There are some who boast of the weapons of the world, but the power of God is all our pride. Those who arm for war shall one day collapse and fall, but God's people stand and in their King prevail. Scripture: Psalm 20 Languages: English Tune Title: SAMSON (Warren)

Jesus, Lover of My Soul

Author: Charles Wesley Hymnal: The New Church Hymnal #21 (1976) Topics: Comfort Lyrics: 1 Jesus, Lover of my soul,Let me to Thy bosom fly.While the nearer waters roll,While the tempest still is high!Hide me, O my Savior, hide,Till the storm of life is past;Safe into the haven guide,O receive my soul at last!2 Other refuge have I none;Hangs my helpless soul on Thee;Leave, ah, leave me not alone,Still support and comfort me!All my trust on Thee is stayed,All my help from Thee I bring;Cover my defenseless headWith the shadow of Thy wing.3 Thou, O Christ, art all I want,More than all in Thee I find;Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,Heal the sick and lead the blind.Just and holy is Thy name,I am all unrighteousness;False and full of sin I am,Thou art full of truth and grace.4 Plenteous grace with Thee is found,Grace to cover all my sin;Let the healing streams abound,Make and keep me pure within.Thou of life the Fountain art,Freely let me take of Thee;Spring Thou up within my heart,Rise to all eternity.
