No Trust in the Creatures; or, Faith in Divine Grace and Power
Appears in 126 hymnals Topics: Trust in the Creatures vain First Line: My Spirit looks to GOD alone Lyrics: 1 My Spirit looks to GOD alone,
My Rock and Refuge is his Throne;
In all my Fears, in all my Straits,
My Soul on his Salvation waits.
2 Trust him, ye Saints, in all your Ways,
Pour out your Hearts before his Face:
When Helpers fail, and Foes invade,
GOD is our all-sufficient Aid.
3 False are the Men of high Degree,
The baser Sort are Vanity;
Laid in the Ballance both appear
Light as a Puff of empty Air.
4 Make not increasing Gold your Trust,
Nor set your Hearts on glittering Dust;
Why will you grasp the fleeting Smoke,
And not believe what God has spoke?
5 Once has his awful Voice declar'd,
Once and again my Ears have heard,
"All Pow'r is his eternal Due;
"He must be fear'd and trusted too."
6 For sov'reign Pow'r reigns not alone,
Grace is a Partner of the Throne;
Thy Grace and Justice, mighty Lord,
Shall well divide our last Reward. Scripture: Psalm 62:5-12

Safety in God
Appears in 239 hymnals Topics: Trust in the Creatures vain; Trust in the Creatures vain First Line: When overwhelm'd with grief Lyrics: 1 When, overwhelm'd with grief,
My heart within me dies.
Helpless and far from all relief
To heaven I lift mine eyes.
2 O lead me to the rock
That’s high above my head,
And make the covert of thy wings
My shelter and my shade.
3 Within thy presence, Lord,
For ever I’ll abide;
Thou art the tower of my defence,
The refuge where I hide.
4 Thou givest me the lot
Of those that fear thy name;
If endless life be their reward,
I shall possess the same. Scripture: Psalm 61:1-6
Safety in God
Praise to GOD for his Goodness and Truth
Appears in 527 hymnals Topics: Trust in the Creatures vain First Line: I'll praise my Maker with my Breath Lyrics: 1 I'll praise my Maker with my Breath;
And when my Voice is lost in Death
Praise shall employ my nobler Pow'rs:
My Days of Praise shall ne'er be past,
While Life and Thought and Being last,
Or Immortality endures.
2 Why should I make a Man my Trust?
Princes must die, and turn to Dust:
Vain is the Help of Flesh and Blood:
Their Breath departs, their Pomp and Pow'r,
And Thoughts, all vanish in an Hour,
Nor can they make their Promise good.
3 Happy the Man whose Hopes rely
On Isr'el's GOD: He made the sky,
And Earth and Seas, with all their Train;
His Truth forever stands secure;
He saves th'Opprest, he feeds the Poor,
And none shall find his Promise vain.
4 The Lord hath Eyes to give the Blind;
The Lord supports the sinking Mind;
He sends the lab'ring Conscience Peace,
He helps the Stranger in Distress,
The Widow and the fatherless,
And grants the Pris'ner sweet Release.
5 He loves his Saints; he knows them well,
But turns the Wicked down to Hell:
Thy GOD, O Sion, ever reigns;
Let ev'ry Tongue, let ev'ry Age
In this exalted Work engage:
Praise him in everlasting Strains.
6 I'll praise him while he lends me Breath,
And when my Voice is lost in Death
Praise shall employ my nobler Pow'rs:
My Days of Praise shall ne'er be past,
While Life and Thought and Being last,
Or Immortality endures. Scripture: Psalm 146

Behold how sinners disagree
Author: Isaac Watts Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 43 hymnals Topics: Trust in the creatures vain Lyrics:
Behold how sinners disagree,
The publican and Pharisee!
One doth his righteousness proclaim,
The other owns his guilt and shame.
This man at humble distance stands,
And cries for grace with lifted hands
That boldly rises near the throne,
And talks of duties he has done.
The Lord their diff'rent language knows,
And diff'rent answers he bestows;
The humble soul with grace he crowns,
Whilst on the proud his anger frowns.
Dear Father! let me never be
Joined with the boasting Pharisee;
I have no merits of my own
But plead the suff'rings of thy Son.
Scripture: Luke 18:10
Behold how sinners disagree
