Hymnal: Trinity Hymnal #39 (1961) Meter: 8.8.8.8 Topics: God Abiding Presence of Lyrics: 1 When Israel out of Egypt went,
From people of a speech unknown,
The Lord among his people dwelt,
And there he set his royal throne.
2 The sea beheld and fled away,
The Jordan's waters backward turned,
The lofty mountains and the hills
With trembling awe our God discerned.
3 What aileth thee, O troubled sea?
Thou Jordan, why thy riven tide?
Ye mountains and ye little hills,
Why thus dismayed on ev'ry side?
4 O tremble, earth, before the Lord,
In presence of Jehovah fear,
Beneath whose touch the flinty rock
Became a fount of waters clear.
Amen. Scripture: Psalm 114 Languages: English Tune Title: ABSCHIED
