Psalm 31 Part 2

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.68 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Doubts and fears suppressed; Fears and doubts suppressed First Line: My heart rejoices in thy name Lyrics: My heart rejoices in thy name, My God, my help, my trust; Thou hast preserved my face from shame, Mine honor from the dust. "My life is spent with grief," I cried, "My years consumed in groans, My strength decays, mine eyes are dried, And sorrow wastes my bones." Among mine enemies my name Was a mere proverb grown, While to my neighbors I became Forgotten and unknown. Slander and fear on every side Seized and beset me round I to the throne of grace applied, And speedy rescue found. How great deliverance thou hast wrought Before the sons of men! The lying lips to silence brought, And made their boastings vain! Thy children from the strife of tongues Shall thy pavilion hide; Guard them from infamy and wrongs, And crush the sons of pride. Within thy secret presence, Lord, Let me for ever dwell; No fenced city, walled and barred, Secures a saint so well. Scripture: Psalm 31:7-13 Languages: English

Hence from my Soul, sad Thoughts, begone

Hymnal: The Psalms of David #II.LXXIII (1766) Topics: Doubts and Fears suppressed Lyrics: 1 Hence from my Soul, sad Thoughts begone, And leave me to my Joys, My Tongue shall triumph in my God, And make a joyful Noise. 2 Darkness and Doubts had veil'd my Mind, And drown'd my Head in Tears, Till sov'reign Grace, with shining Rays, Dispell'd my gloomy Fears. 3 O what immortal Joys I felt, And Raptures all divine, When Jesus told me, I was his, And my Beloved, mine. 4 In vain the Tempter frights my Soul, And breaks my Peace in vain; One Glimpse, dear Saviour, of thy Face Revives my Joys again.
