your law stays with me night and day.

Wonderful Counselor, you are my wisdom:
your word shall teach me; I will obey you.

Lessons from the Past
Hymnal: The Psalter #213 (1912) Topics: Judgments On Nations; Judgments On the Righteous; Royalty of Christ Judgment the Prerogative of First Line: My people, give ear, attend to my word Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word,
In parables new deep truths shall be heard;
The wonderful story our fathers made known
To children succeeding by us must be shown.
2 Instructing our sons we gladly record
The praises, the works, the might of the Lord,
For He hath commanded that what He hath done
Be passed in tradition from father to son.
3 Let children thus learn from history's light
To hope in our God and walk in His sight,
The God of their fathers to fear and obey,
And ne'er like their fathers to turn from His way.
4 The story be told, to warn and restrain,
Of hearts that were hard, rebellions, and vain,
Of soldiers who faltered when battle was near,
Who kept not God's covenant nor walked in His fear.
5 God's wonderful works to them He had shown,
His marvelous deeds their fathers had known;
He made for their pathway the waters divide,
His glorious pillar of cloud was their guide.
6 He gave them to drink, relieving their thirst,
And forth from the rock caused water to burst;
Yet faithless they tempted their God, and they said,
Can He Who gave water supply us with bread?
7 Jehovah was wroth because they forgot
To hope in their God, and trusted Him not;
Yet gracious, He opened the doors of the sky
And rained down the manna in richest supply.
8 With bread from on high their need He supplied,
And more did He do when thankless they sighed;
The strong winds commanding from south and from east,
He sent them abundance of quail for their feast.
9 Though well they were filled, their folly they chose,
Till God in His wrath o'erwhelmed them with woes;
He slew of their strongest and smote their young men,
But still unbelieving they sinned even then.
10 Because of their sin He smote with His rod,
And then they returned and sought for their God;
Their Rock and Redeemer was God the Most High,
Yet false were their praises, their promise a lie.
11 Not right with their God in heart and in will,
They faithlessly broke His covenant still;
But He, in compassion, reluctant to slay,
Forgave them and oft turned His anger away.
12 His pity was great, though often they sinned,
For they were but flesh, a swift passing wind;
Yet thought His compassion and grace they behold,
They tempted and grieved Him and often rebelled.
13 They limited God, the Most Holy One,
And hindered the work His grace had begun;
The hand that was mighty to save they forgot,
The day of redemption remembering not.
14 Ungrateful and blind, no longer they thought
Of wonders and signs and mighty deeds wrought,
Of how all the rivers of Egypt ran red,
And plagues in God's anger were heaped on their head.
15 They thought not of how, their freedom to gain,
In Egypt's abodes the first-born were slain,
And how all God's people were led forth like sheep,
The flock He delighted in safety to keep.
Scripture: Psalm 78 Languages: English Tune Title: CHIOS

Reminders from Israel's History
Hymnal: The Psalter #214 (1912) Topics: Judgments On Nations; Judgments On the Righteous; Royalty of Christ Judgment the Prerogative of First Line: My people, give ear, attend to my word Lyrics: 1 My people, give ear, attend to my word,
In parables new deep truths shall be heard;
The wonderful story our fathers made known
To children succeeding by us must be shown.
2 Unharmed thro' the sea, where perished their foe,
He caused them with ease and safety to go;
His holy land gaining, in peace they were brought
To dwell in the mountain the Lord's hand had bought.
3 He gave them the land, a heritage fair;
The nations that dwelt in wickedness there
He drove out before them with great overthrow,
And gave to His people the tents of the foe.
4 Again they rebelled and tempted the Lord,
Unfaithful they turned to idols abhorred,
And God in His anger withdrew from them then,
No longer delighting to dwell among men.
5 He gave them to death in battle, although
His glory and strength were scorned by the foe;
Their young men were fallen, their maidens unwed,
Their priests slain in battle, none wept for the dead.
6 Then mercy awoke, the Lord in His might
Returned, and his foes were scattered in flight;
Again to His people His favor He showed,
And chose in Mount Zion to fix His abode.
7 His servant he called, a shepherd of sheep,
From tending his flock, the people to keep;
So David, their shepherd, with wisdom and might
Protected and fed them and led them aright. Scripture: Psalm 78 Languages: English Tune Title: STELLA

Complaint Against the Wicked
Hymnal: The Psalter #18 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Judgments On the Wicked First Line: Why standest Thou afar, O Lord 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 pow'r.
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 pow'r 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. Scripture: Psalm 10 Languages: English Tune Title: BRIGGS

The Martyr Church
Hymnal: The Psalter #122 (1912) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Judgments On Nations; Judgments On the Righteous First Line: Thou, Lord, hast forsaken, to shame brough our boasts Lyrics: 1 Thou, Lord, hast forsaken, to shame brought our boasts;
No more to the field dost Thou go with out hosts;
Thou turnest us back from the foe in dismay,
And spoilers who hate us have made us their prey.
2 Like sheep to the slaughter Thy people are giv'n,
Dispersed through the nations afar we are driv'n;
Thou sellest Thy people to strangers for naught,
Their price to Thy treasure no increase has brought.
3 Thou makest our neighbors reproach us in pride,
And those that are near us to scoff and deride;
A byword the nations have made of our name,
With scorn and derision they put us to shame.
4 Yea, all the day long I behold my disgrace,
And covered am I with confusion of face;
The voice of blasphemers and scoffers I hear,
The foe and avenger against me appear.
5 All this have we suffered,and never forgot
To serve Thee, Jehovah, nor falsely have wrought;
Our heart is not turned and our steps have not strayed,
Tho' crushed amid ruins and under death's shade. Scripture: Psalm 44 Languages: English Tune Title: GOOD SHEPHERD

To Thee give thanks sincere,
Because Thy wondrous works declare
That Thou art ever near.
2 Thy righteous judgment, Thou hast said,
Shall in due time appear,
And thou Who didst establish it
Wilt fill the earth with fear.
3 Thou teachest meekness to the proud,
And makest sinners know
That none is judge but God alone,
To honor or bring low.
4 Jehovah holds a cup of wrath,
And holds it not in vain,
For all the wicked of the earth
Its bitter dregs shall drain.
5 The God of Israel I will praise
And all His glory show;
The righteous He will high exalt
And bring the wicked low.

The Righteous Judgment of God
Confidence in Divine Justice
Hymnal: The Psalter #13 (1912) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Judgment Day; Judgments On the Wicked; Royalty of Christ Judgment the Prerogative of First Line: Jehovah, my God, on Thy help I depend Lyrics: 1 Jehovah, my God, on Thy help I depend;
From all that pursue me O save and defend;
Lest they like a lion should rend me at will,
while no one is near me their raging to still.
2 When wronged without cause I have kindness returned;
But if I my neighbor maltreated and spurned,
My soul let the enemy seize for his prey,
My life and my honor in dust let him lay.
3 O Lord, in Thy wrath stay the rage of my foes;
Awake, and Thy judgment ordained interpose.
Let peoples surround Thee and wait at Thy feet,
While o'er them for judgment Thou takest Thy seat.
4 All nations of men shall be judged by the Lord;
To me, O Jehovah, just judgment accord,
As faithful and righteous in life I have been,
And ever integrity cherished within.
5 Establish the righteous, let evil depart,
For God Who is just tries the tho'ts of the heart.
In God for defense I have placed all my trust;
The upright He saves and He judges the just.
6 The Lord with the wicked is wroth every day,
And if they repent not is ready to slay;
By manifold ruin for others prepared
They surely at last shall themselves be ensnared.
7 Because He is righteous His praise I will sing,
Thanksgiving and honor to Him I will bring,
Will sing to the Lord on Whose grace I rely,
Extolling the Name of Jehovah Most High. Scripture: Psalm 7 Languages: English Tune Title: PAULINA

The Lord the Righteous Judge
Hymnal: The Psalter #16 (1912) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Judgment Day; Judgments On the Wicked; Royalty of Christ Judgment the Prerogative of First Line: Wholehearted thanksgiving to Thee will I bring Lyrics: 1 Wholehearted thanksgiving to Thee I will bring;
In praise of Thy marvelous works I will sing,
In Thee I will joy and exultingly cry
Thy Name I will praise, O Jehovah Most High.
2 My enemies turn and are scattered in fear,
They stumble and perish because Thou art near;
For Thou hast defended my right and my cause,
Thou sittest in judgment, upholding Thy laws.
3 Rebuked are the nations, the wicked destroyed,
Their memory perished, their dwelling-place void;
Enthroned and eternal, Jehovah shall reign,
The peoples to judge and the right to maintain.
4 Thou, Lord, art a refuge for all the oppressed;
All trust Thee who know Thee, and trusting are blest;
For never, O Lord, did Thy mercy forsake
The soul that has sought of Thy grace to partake.
5 Give praise to Jehovah, the mighty deeds tell
Of Him Who has chosen in Zion to dwell,
Of Him to Whom justice and vengeance belong,
Who visits the lowly and overthrows wrong.
6 Behold my affliction, Thy mercy accord,
And back from death's portals restore me, O Lord,
That I in the gates of Thy Zion may raise
My song of salvation and show forth Thy praise.
7 The sins of the nations their ruin have wrought,
Their own evildoing destruction has brought;
In this the Lord's justice eternally stands,
That sinners are snared in the work of their hands.
8 The wicked shall perish, the nations shall fall
Forgetting their God, Who is God over all;
But God will remember the prayer of the weak,
Most surely fulfilling the hope of the meek.
9 Arise in Thy justice, O Lord, and Thy might,
No longer let sinners prevail in Thy sight;
Great Judge of the nations, in judgment appear
To humble the proud and to teach them to fear.

God Praise As Judge
The Righteous and the Evil-Doer
Hymnal: The Psalter #99 (1912) Topics: Judgments On the Wicked First Line: The wicked, watching for their prey Lyrics: 1 The wicked, watching for their prey,
Desire the righteous man to slay,
But God is on his side;
He will not leave him in their hands,
Nor count him guilty when he stands
In judgment to be tried.
2 Wait on the Lord and keep His way;
He will exalt thee, nor delay
To give the land to thee;
And when the wicked are cut off,
The wicked who against thee scoff,
Their judgment thou shalt see.
3 The wicked in great pow'r are seen,
Like spreading tree with foliage green
That grows in native ground.
I looked again, they were no more;
I sought the men so proud before,
But they could not be found.
4 Mark thou the upright day by day,
Behold the perfect in his way;
His journey ends in peace.
Destroyed at once shall rebels be;
Cut off from all posterity,
Their very name shall cease.
5 Salvation is from God, alone,
Whom as their covert saints have known
When by sore troubles tried;
The Lord Who helped in troubles past
Will save them to the very last,
For they in Him confide. Scripture: Psalm 37 Languages: English Tune Title: RAPTURE
The Righteous and the Evil-Doer
God the Righteous Judge
Hymnal: The Psalter #253 (1912) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: Judgments On the Wicked; Royalty of Christ Judgment the Prerogative of First Line: O Lord, Thou Judge of all the earth Lyrics: 1 O Lord, Thou Judge of all the earth,
To Whom all vengeance doth belong,
Arise and show Thy glory forth,
Requite the proud, condemn the wrong.
2 How long, O Lord, in boastful pride
Shall wicked men triumphant stand?
How long shall they afflict Thy saints
And devastate Thy chosen land?
3 The widow and the fatherless
They slay, and helpless strangers smith;
The faithful God they do not fear,
They say the Lord will not requite.
4 Be wise, ye fools and brutish men;
Shall not He see Who formed the eye?
Shall not He hear Who formed the ear,
And judge, Who reigneth, God Most High?
5 The Lord will judge in righteousness,
From Him all truth and knowledge flow;
The foolish thoughts of wicked men,
How vain they are the Lord doth know.
6 That man is blest whom Thou, O Lord,
With chastening hand dost teach Thy will,
For in the day when sinners fall
That man in peace abideth still.
7 The Lord will not cast off His own,
Nor His inheritance forsake;
Just judgment shall at length prevail,
And upright hearts shall courage take.
8 Who will arise for my defense
Against the wicked in the land?
Against iniquity and wrong
What man for me will valiant stand?
9 Unless the Lord had been my help,
My life had quickly passed away;
But when my foot had almost slipped,
O Lord, Thy mercy was my stay.
10 Amid the doubts that fill my mind
Thy comforts, Lord, bring joy to me;
Can wickedness, though throned in might,
Have fellowship, O Lord, with Thee?
11 The wicked, in their might arrayed,
Against the righteous join their power,
But to the Lord I flee for help,
He is my refuge and my tower.
12 Our God, the refuge of His saints,
Will fight against iniquity;
Avenger of the innocent
The Lord omnipotent will be. Scripture: Psalm 94 Languages: English Tune Title: LYTHAM
