God's Strength Our Protection
Hymnal: The Psalter #34 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Prayer For Deliverance from Trouble First Line: I love the lord, His strength is mine Lyrics: 1 I love the Lord, His strength is mine;
He is my God, I trust His grace;
My fortress high, my shield divine,
My Savior and my hiding-place.
2 My prayer to God shall still be raised
When troubles thick around me close;
The lord, most worthy to be praised,
Will rescue me from all my foes.
3 When, floods of evil raging near,
Down nigh to dearth my soul was brought
I cried to God in all my fear;
He heard and great deliv'rance wrought.
4 He came: the earth's foundations quake,
The hills are shaken from their place,
Thick smoke and fire devouring break
In anger dread before His face.
5 Descending through the bending skies,
With gloom and darkness under Him,
Forth through the storm Jehovah flies
As on the wings of cherubim.
6 Thick darkness hides Him from the view,
And swelling clouds His presence veil,
Until His glorious light breaks through
In lighting flash and glistening hail.
7 Jehovah's thunders fill the heaven,
The dreadful voice of God Most High;
With shafts of light the clouds are riven,
His foes, dismayed, in terror fly.
8 The raging torrents overflow,
And sweep the world's foundations bare,
Because Thy blasts of anger blow,
O Lord of earth and sea and air.
9 He took me from the whelming waves
Of bitter hate and sore distress;
The Lord, my stay and helper, saves,
Thought mighty foes around me press.
10 From direful straits He set me free,
He saved the man of His delight;
For good the Lord rewarded me,
Because I kept His ways aright.
Scripture: Psalm 18 Languages: English Tune Title: MENDON

And taunting words they spake;
They gave me vinegar to drink,
My burning thirst to slake.

In blindness let them grope;
Thy indignation on them pour,
And desolate their hope.
9 Because they proudly persecute
Those whom Thou, Lord, dost smite,
Let them be blotted from Thy book
And banished from Thy sight.

The Cross of Calvary
Hymnal: The Psalter #47 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Deliverance from trouble First Line: My God, My God, I cry to Thee Lyrics: 1 My God, My God, I cry to Thee;
O why hast Thou forsaken Me?
Afar from Me, Thou dost not heed,
Though day and night for help I plead.
2 But Thou art holy in Thy ways,
Enthroned upon Thy people's praise;
Our fathers put their trust in Thee,
Believed, and Thou didst set them free.
3 They cried, and, trusting in Thy Name,
Were saved, and were not put to shame;
But in the dust My honor lies,
While all reproach and all despise.
4 My words a cause for scorn they make,
The lip they curl, the head they shake,
And, mocking, bid Me trust the Lord
Till He salvation shall afford.
5 My trust on Thee I learned to rest
When i was on My mother's breast;
From birth Thou art My God alone,
Thy care My life has ever known.
6 O let Thy strength and presence cheer,
For trouble and distress are near;
Be Thou not far away from Me,
I have no source of help but Thee.
7 Unnumbered foes would do Me wrong,
They press about Me, fierce and strong,
Like beasts of prey their rage they vent,
My courage fails, My strength is spent.
8 Down unto death Thou leadest Me,
Consumed by thirst and agony;
With cruel hate and anger fierce
My helpless hands and feet they pierce.
9 While on My wasted form they stare,
The garments torn from Me they share,
My shame and sorrow heeding not,
And for My robe they cast the lot.
10 O Lord, afar no longer stay;
O Thou My helper, haste, I pray;
From death and evil set Me free;
I live, for Thou didst answer Me.
11 I live and will declare Thy fame
Where brethren gather in Thy Name;
Where all Thy faithful people meet,
I will Thy worthy praise repeat. Scripture: Psalm 22 Languages: English Tune Title: HEBRON

The Frailty of Life
Hymnal: The Psalter #104 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Prayer For Deliverance from Trouble First Line: With firm resolve I held my peace Lyrics: 1 With firm resolve I held my peace
And spake not either bad or good,
Lest I should utter sinful thoughts
While wicked men before me stood.
2 While I was dumb my grief was stirred,
My heart grew hot with thought suppressed;
The while I mused the fire increased,
Then to the Lord I made request.
3 Make me, O Lord, to know my end,
Teach me the measure of my days,
That I may know how frail I am
And turn from pride and sinful ways.
4 My time is nothing in Thy sight,
Behold, my days are but a span;
yea, truly at his best estate,
A breath, a fleeting breath, is man.
5 Man's life is passed in vain desire
If troubled years be spent for gain;
He knows not whose his wealth shall be,
And all his toil is but in vain.
6 And now, O Lord, what wait I for?
I have no nope except in Thee;
Let not ungodly men reproach,
From all transgression set me free.
7 Because Thou didst it I was dumb,
I spoke no word of rash complaint;
Remove Thy stroke away from me,
Beneath Thy chastisement I faint.
8 When Thou for his iniquity
Rebukest and correctest man,
His beauty is consumed away,
How weak his strength, how vain his plan.
9 Lord, hear my prayer, regard my cry,
I weep, be Thou my comforter;
I am a stranger here below,
A pilgrim as my fathers were.
10 O spare me, Lord, avert Thy wrath,
Deal gently with me, I implore,
That I may yet recover strength
Ere I go hence and be no more.

Sin and Divine Patience
Hymnal: The Psalter #291 (1912) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Prayer For Deliverance from Trouble First Line: Their God and Saviour they forgot Lyrics: 1 Their God and Saviour they forgot,
Their helper and their stay,
But Moses plead the promised grace
And turned God's wrath away.
2 Yea, they despised the pleasant land,
The promised land of God,
And tempted Him to make them fall
And scatter them abroad.
3 They sacrificed to heathen gods,
And God their sin repaid;
Then holy wrath avenged the wrong,
And so the plague was stayed.
4 The Lord approved the righteous act
Of him who sin abhorred,
And honored him for evermore
With just and great reward.
5 By wicked strife they angered God,
His wrath they did provoke;
And, stirred by their rebellious cries,
Their leader rashly spoke.
6 Ensnared, they served the heathen gods,
And by them were beguiled;
The blood of children sacrificed
The very land defiled.
7 Against His own inheritance
Jehovah's wrath arose,
His chosen people He condemned
To serve their heathen foes.
8 Though from their harsh oppressors' hand
Ofttimes He set them free,
Rebellious still, they were brought low
In their iniquity.
9 When unto God they cried, he heard
And turned again His face,
In boundless love remembering
The covenant of His grace.
10 He even touched their captors' hearts,
And made their very foes
Compassionate and pitiful
To feel his people's woes.
11 Save us, O Lord, our gracious God,
From alien lands reclaim
That we may triumph in Thy praise
And bless Thy holy Name.
12 Blessed be the Lord our covenant God,
All praise to Him accord;
Let all the people say, Amen.
Praise ye, praise ye the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 106 Languages: English Tune Title: NOTTINGHAM

O Lord, by Thee Delivered
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #57 (1934) Meter: 7.6.7.6 D Topics: Deliverance From Trouble Lyrics: 1 O Lord, by Thee delivered,
I Thee with songs extol;
My foes Thou hast not suffered
To glory o'er my fall.
O Lord, my God, I sought Thee,
And Thou didst heal and save;
Thou, Lord, from death didst ransom,
And keep me from the grave.
2 His holy Name remember,
Ye saints, Jehovah praise;
His anger lasts a moment,
His favor all our days;
For sorrow, like a pilgrim,
May tarry for a night,
But joy the heart will gladden
When dawns the morning light.
3 In prosperous days I boasted,
Unmoved I shall remain,
For, Lord, by Thy good favor
My cause Thou didst maintain;
I soon was sorely troubled,
For Thou didst hide Thy face;
I cried to Thee, Jehovah,
I sought Jehovah's grace.
4 What profit if I perish,
If life Thou dost not spare?
Shall dust repeat Thy praises,
Shall it Thy truth declare?
O Lord, on me have mercy,
And my petition hear;
That Thou mayst be my Helper,
In mercy, Lord, appear.
5 My grief is turned to gladness,
To Thee my thanks I raise,
Who hast removed my sorrow
And girded me with praise;
And now, no longer silent,
My heart Thy praise will sing;
O Lord, my God, for ever
My thanks to Thee I bring.

Hymnal: The Psalter #90 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Deliverance from trouble First Line: The Lord I will at all times bless Lyrics: 1 The Lord I will at all times bless,
My mouth His praises shall express;
In Him shall all my boasting be,
While all the meek rejoice with me.
2 O magnify the Lord with me,
Let us to praise Him Name agree;
I sought the Lord, He answered me,
And from my fears He set me free.
3 Who look to Him shall walk in light,
With joy their faces shall be bright,
Distressed, they cried; the Lord arose
And saved them out of all their woes.
4 Around His saints as watch and ward
Encamps the angel of the Lord;
That God is good,
O taste and see,
Who trusts in Him shall blessed be.
5 Fear Him, ye saints, and do His will,
And all your needs He will fulfill;
Tho' beasts of forest lack their food,
Those seeking God shall want no good.
6 Ye children, come and hear my voice,
And learn to make God's fear your choice;
Who seek long life and happy days
Must learn to walk in wisdom's ways.
7 Who fears the Lord must keep his tongue
From evil and his lips from wrong,
Must do the good, from evil cease,
And ever seek and follow peace. Scripture: Psalm 34 Languages: English Tune Title: AMES
Testimony and Praise
Yea, I will extol Thee
Author: James Montgomery Hymnal: Sacred Poems and Hymns #190 (1854) Meter: 6.5.6.5 D Topics: Deliverance from trouble Lyrics:
Yea, I will extol Thee
Lord of life and light,
For Thine arm upheld me,
Turn'd my foes to flight;
I implored Thy succour,
Thou wert swift to save,
Heal my wounded spirit,
Bring me from the grave.
193
Sing, ye saints, sing praises!
Call His love to mind,
For a moment angry,
But for ever kind;
Grief may, like a stranger,
Through the night sojourn,
Yet shall joy, to-morrow,
With the sun return.
In my wealth I vaunted,
"Nought shall move me hence;
Thou hast made my mountain,
Strong in Thy defence:"--
Then Thy face was hidden,
Trouble laid me low,
"Lord," I cried right humbly,
"Why forsake me so?"
"Would my blood appease Thee,
In atonement shed?
Can the dust give glory?--
Praise employ the dead?
Hear me, Lord, in mercy,
God my Helper, hear."
--Long Thou didst not tarry,
Help and health were near.
Thou hast turn'd my mourning
Into minstrelsy,
Girded me with gladness,
Set from thraldom free:
Thee my ransom'd powers
Henceforth shall adore,
Thee, my great Deliverer,
Laud for evermore.
Scripture: Psalm 30 Languages: English
Yea, I will extol Thee

As Thirsts the Hart for Water Brooks
Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #81 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Deliverance From Trouble Lyrics: 1 As thirsts the hart for water brooks,
So thirsts my soul, O God, for Thee;
It seeks for God, and ever looks
And longs the living God to see,
And longs the living God to see.
2 Far from the courts of God, my tears
Have been my food by night and day,
While constantly with bitter sneers,
Where is thy God? the scoffers say,
Where is thy God? the scoffers say.
3 With grief I think of days gone by,
when oft I trod the hallowed way
To Zion, praising God on high
With throngs who kept the holy day,
With throngs who kept the holy day.
4 O why art thou cast down, my soul,
And why so troubled shouldst thou be?
Hope thou in God, and Him extol,
Who gives His saving help to me,
Who gives His saving help to me.
5 Since, O my God, my soul is bowed,
In exile far, with bitter grief,
I turn my thoughts to Thy abode
For consolation and relief,
For consolation and relief.
6 With mighty voice deep calls to deep,
While raging storms Thy judgments tell;
The angry billows o'er me leap,
The waves of sorrow near me swell,
The waves of sorrow near me swell.
7 Thought troubles surge, yet through the day
The Lord His gracious help will give,
And in the night my heart shall pray
And sing to Him in Whom I live,
And sing to Him in Whom I live.
8 To God my rock I cry and say:
O why hast Thou forgotten me?
Why go I mourning on my way,
Oppressed by foes that know not Thee?
Oppressed by foes that know not Thee?
9 With anguish as from piercing sword
Reproach of bitter foes I hear,
While day by day, with taunting word,
Where is thy God? the scoffers sneer,
Where is thy God? the scoffers sneer.
10 O why art thou cast down, my soul,
And why so troubled shouldst thou be?
Hope thou in God, and Him extol,
Who gives His saving help to me,

Jehovah from His Throne on High

On all that dwell below;
And He that fashioned heart and mind
Looks ever down on all mankind,
The works of men to know.

Not charging steeds or war-like boasts
Can save from overthrow;
But God will save from death and shame
All those who fear and trust His Name,
And they no want shall know.

In Him our hearts are joyful made,
Our help and shield is He.

His ear attentive to their cry;
Against the wicked sets His face,
From earth their memory to erase.

And rescues them from all their fears;

To contrite spirits help imparts.
3 Afflictions on the good must fall,
But God will bring them safe through all;
From harmful stroke He will defend,
And sure and full deliverance send.
4 By evil are the evil slain,
The hope of sinful men is vain;
The wicked, who the righteous hate,
Their condemnation shall be great.

For all who in His grace confide;
From condemnation they are clear
Who trust in Him with holy fear. Scripture: Psalm 34 Languages: English Tune Title: GERMANY

Far they roamed the desert way,
Found no settled dwelling-place
Where in peace secure to stay,
Till with thirst and hunger pressed
Courage sank within their breast.

Led them to the rest they craved
By a pathway straight and sure,

Drives the darkness from the sky,
Calms the storm and stills the waves,
Makes their sad forebodings cease,
To their haven guides in peace.
