The Prayer of the Righteous
Hymnal: The Psalter #31 (1912) Topics: God Righteousness of; The Righteous Contrasted with the Wicked First Line: Lord, hear the right, regard my cry Lyrics: 1 Lord, hear the right, regard my cry,
My prayer from lips sincere;
Send Thy approval from on high,
My righteousness make clear.
Thou in the night my heart hast tried,
Nor found it turned from Thee aside.
2 With steadfast courage I design
No wrong to speak or do;
Thy path of life I choose for mine
And walk with purpose true.
For help, O God, I cry to Thee,
Assured that Thou wilt answer me.
3 O Thou that ever savest those
Whose trust on Thee is stayed,
Preserving them from all their foes
By Thy almighty aid,
Let me Thy loving-kindness see,
Thy wondrous mercy, full and free.
4 O guard me well as one doth guard
The apple of the eye;
While deadly foes are pressing hard,
To Thee, to Thee I cry.
Do Thou my rest and refuge be,
O let Thy wings o'er shadow me.
5 My enemy, grown strong in pride,
Would take my life away,
A lion lurking by my side,
Most greedy for his prey.
Confront and cast him down, O Lord,
From evil save me by Thy sword.
6 Defend me from the men of pride,
Whose portion is below,
Who, with life's treasures satisfied,
No better portion know;
They, with earth's joys and wealth content,
Must leave them all when life is spent.
7 When I in righteousness at last
Thy glorious face shall see,
When all the weary night is past,
And I awake with Thee
To view the glories that abide,
Then, then I shall be satisfied.
Scripture: Psalm 17 Languages: English Tune Title: CALM
The Prayer of the Righteous
Bury'd in Shadows of the Night
Hymnal: The Psalms of David #I.XCVII (1766) Topics: Christ Our Wisdom and Righteousness; Righteousness and Strength in Christ Lyrics: 1 Bury'd in Shadows of the Night,
We lie till Christ restores the Light;
Wisdom descends to heal the Blind,
And chase the Darkness of the Mind.
2 Our guilty Souls are drown'd in Tears
Till thy atoning Blood appears;
Then we awake from deep Distress,
And sing, The Lord our Righteousness.
3 Our very Frame is mix'd with Sin,
His Spirit makes our Natures clean;
Such Virtues from his Suff'rings flow,
At once to cleanse and pardon too.
4 Jesus beholds where Satan reigns,
Binding his Slaves in heavy Chains;
He sets the Prisoners free, and breaks
The Iron Bondage from our Necks.
5 Poor helpless Worms in Thee possess
Grace, Wisdom, Pow'r and Righteousness;
Thou art our mighty All, and we
Give our whole selves, O Lord, to Thee. Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:30 Languages: English

Past errors forgiven, wash'd whiter than snow;
O'er sin-blotted record why sorrowing more?
Confess to the Father, white leaves are before.
Chorus:
Beautiful leaves from heav'n,
Moment in mercy giv'n,
New days of trial for him who grieves;
One more probation hour,
Promise of holy pow'r.
What shall be written on life's new leaves?
What shall be written on our white leaves?
2 Forgiven, forgotten, Christ covers from view,
And strength for the future, gives daily anew;
All offers He freely for thy sinful heart:
This, this must be yielded, all, all, not a part. [Chorus]
3 Despondent one wounded by treacherous foe,
In moment unguarded by sin smitten low;
Defeated; yet never surrender Christ's name,
Take courage and speak it, deliverance claim. [Chorus]
4 Then faithful in service, from hour unto hour,
By full consecration draw fulness of pow'r;
His oil of love burning gives out the true light,
The life to Him yielded hath pages of white. [Chorus]
Languages: English Tune Title: [White pages before us, thank God this is so]

Expectancy of Grace
Hymnal: The Psalter #232 (1912) Topics: God Righteousness of First Line: O Lord, to us Thy mercy show Lyrics: 1 O Lord, to us Thy mercy show,
And Thy salvation now bestow;
We wait to hear what God will say;
Peace to His people He will speak,
And to His saints, but let them seek
No more in folly's path to stray.
2 His saving help is surely near
To those His holy Name that fear;
Thus glory dwells in all our land.
Now heav'nly truth unites with grace,
And righteousness and peace embrace,
In full accord they ever stand.
3 Truth springing forth the earth shall crown,
And righteousness from heav'n look down,
And God on us His goodness shed;
Our land shall then with plenty flow,
Before Him righteousness shall go,
And cause us in His steps to tread. Scripture: Psalm 85 Languages: English Tune Title: MELITA
