My crafty foe, with flattering art

Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 36 Lyrics: 1 My crafty Foe, with flatt'ring Art, His wicked Purpose would disguise; But Reason whispers to my Heart, No Fear of God's before his Eyes. 2 He sooths himself, retir'd from Sight; Secure he thinks his treach'rous Game; Till his dark Plots, expos'd to Light, Their false Contriver brand with Shame. 3 In Deeds he is my Foe confess'd, Whilst with his Tongue he speaks me fair: True Wisdom's banish'd from his Brest, And Vice has sole Dominion there. 4 His wakeful Malice spends the Night In forging his accurs'd Designs; His obstinate, ungen'rous Spite No execrable Means declines. 5 But, Lord, thy Mercy, my sure Hope, The highest Orb of Heav'n transcends; Thy sacred Truth's unmeasur'd Scope Beyond the sparkling Skies extends. 6 Thy Justice like the Hills remains; Unfathom'd Depths thy Judgments are; Thy Providence the world sustains; The whole Creation is thy Care. 7 Since of thy Goodness All partake, With what Assurance should the Just Thy shelt'ring Wings their Refuge make, And Saints to thy Protection trust! 8 Such Guests shall to thy Courts be led, To banquet on thy Love's Repast: And drink, as from a fountain's Head, Of Joys that shall forever last. 9 With Thee the Springs of Life remain; Thy Presence is eternal Day: 10 O! let thy Saints thy Favour gain; To upright Hearts thy Truth display. 11 Whilst Pride's insulting Foot would spurn, And wicked Hand my Life surprise; 12 Their Mischiefs on themselves return; Down, down, they're fall'n, no more to rise.

Everything rejoices in the mellow rays; all earth's thousand voices swell the psalm of praise. 2 See God's mercy streaming over all the world, and his banner gleaming, everywhere unfurled. Broad and deep and glorious, as the heaven above, shines in might victorious his eternal love. 3 Lord, upon our blindness your pure radiance pour; for your loving-kindness make us love you more. And, when clouds are drifting dark across the sky, then, the veil uplifting, Father, still be nigh. 4 We will never doubt you, though you veil your light; life is dark without you; death with you is bright. Light of light, shine o'er us on our pilgrim way; still go on before us, to the endless day.
