Psalm 7

Author: Isaac Watts Hymnal: Psalms and Hymns of Isaac Watts, The #Ps.14 (1806) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Persecution victory over, and deliverance from it First Line: My trust is in my heav'nly Friend Lyrics: My trust is in my heav'nly Friend, My hope in thee, my God; Rise, and my helpless life defend From those that seek my blood. With insolence and fury they My soul in pieces tear, As hungry lions rend the prey, When no deliverer's near. If I had e'er provoked them first, Or once abused my foe, Then let him tread my life to dust, And lay mine honor low. If there be malice found in me, I know thy piercing eyes; I should not dare appeal to thee, Nor ask my God to rise. Arise, my God, lift up thy hand, Their pride and power control; Awake to judgment, and command Deliverance for my soul. [Let sinners, and their wicked rage, Be humbled to the dust; Shall not the God of truth engage To vindicate the just? He knows the heart, he tries the reins, He will defend th' upright His sharpest arrows he ordains Against the sons of spite. For me their malice digged a pit, But there themselves are cast; My God makes all their mischief light On their own heads at last.] That cruel, persecuting race Must feel his dreadful sword: Awake, my soul, and praise the grace And justice of the Lord. Scripture: Psalm 7 Languages: English

Why Standest Thou Afar, O Lord

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #16 (1934) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 Why standest Thou afar, O Lord, Why art Thou hid in trouble's hour? The wicked persecute the poor In haughty pride and reckless power. 2 Let their devices work their fall, For in their shame is all their pride; And while they seek unrighteous gain, The Lord of justice is defied. 3 The wicked thinks, in foolish pride, There is no God who will repay; He has no fear of God or man Because God's judgments long delay. 4 Unmoved by fear of coming doom, On fraud and wickedness intent, With craft he lurks and waits to catch The helpless and the innocent. 5 A lion crouching for his prey, He waits the poor to overthrow; He thinks that God remembers not, Or hides His face and will not know. 6 Arise, O Lord, lift up Thy hand, O God, protect the poor and meek; Why should the proud Thy justice doubt, And words of bold defiance speak? 7 O Lord, Thou wilt indeed requite, The sin and sorrow Thou dost see; The helpless and the fatherless Commit themselves, O Lord, to Thee. 8 Break Thou the power of wicked men And let their works no longer stand; The Lord is King for evermore, Who drove the nations from His land. 9 Lord, Thou hast heard the lowly prayer, The fainting heart Thou wilt restore, The helpless cause Thou wilt maintain, That mortal man may boast no more.

In Thee, O Lord, I Put My Trust

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #58 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 In Thee, O Lord, I put my trust, I call upon Thy Name; O save me in Thy righteousness, Nor let me suffer shame. 2 Bow down Thy ear to my request, And swift deliverance send; Be Thou to me a rock of strength, A fortress to defend. 3 Since Thou my rock and fortress art, My Leader be, and Guide; From all temptation rescue me, Thou dost my strength abide. 4 To Thee my spirit I commend; Redemption is with Thee, O Thou Jehovah, God of truth, Who hast delivered me. 5 I hate all those that love the false, My trust is in the Lord; I will be glad, and joyfully Thy mercy will record. 6 For my affliction Thou hast seen, And known my many woes; Thou hast not let me be enslaved, But freed me from my foes. 7 Show mercy, Lord, to me distressed, And send my soul relief, My life is spent with bitterness, My strength consumed with grief. 8 I mourn and fail because of sin, Friends turn in dread away; Reproached am I and terrified, While foes conspire to slay. 9 But, Lord, in Thee is all my trust, Thou art my God, I cried; My life, my times are in Thy hand, I in Thy strength confide. 10 From all that persecute my soul Deliverance I crave; O smile upon Thy servant, Lord, And in Thy mercy save. 11 Let me not be ashamed, O Lord, I plead with Thee to save; But let the wicked be ashamed, And silent in the grave. 12 Yea, let their lips henceforth be mute Who words of falsehood seek, The lips which with contempt and pride Against the righteous speak.

In Full Assurance of Thy Grace

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #134 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 In full assurance of Thy grace To Thee my prayer ascend; In Thy abounding love and truth, O God, salvation send. 2 Preserve my sinking soul, I pray, From tides of hatred save; Let not the waters overflow, Redeem me from the grave. 3 Because Thy mercy, Lord, is good, O answer me in grace, And in the riches of Thy love O turn to me Thy face. 4 Hide not Thy face from my distress, A speedy answer send; Draw near to me, my soul redeem, From all my foes defend. 5 Well known to Thee is my reproach, My shame and my disgrace; The adversaries of my soul Are all before Thy face. 6 My heart is broken by reproach, My soul is full of grief; I looked in vain for comforters, For pity and relief. 7 They gave me bitter gall for food, And taunting words they spake; They gave me vinegar to drink, My burning thirst to slake. 8 Their peace and plenty be their snare, 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.
