Author: T. S. Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 4 First Line: O God that art my righteousnesse Lyrics: 1 O God that art my righteousnesse,
Lord heare me when I call,
Thou hast set me at liberty,
when I was bound and thrall.
2 Have mercy Lord therefore on me,
and grant me my request:
For unto thee uncessantly,
to cry I will not rest.
3 O mortall men how long will ye
my glory thus despise?
why wander ye in vanity,
and follow after lies?
4 Know ye that good and godly men
the Lord doth take and chuse:
And when to him I make my plaint,
he doth me not refute.
5 Sin not, but stand in awe therefore,
examine well your heart:
And in your chamber quietly,
see you your selves convert.
6 Offer to God the sacrifice
of righteousnesse I say:
and look that in the living Lord
you put your trust alway.
7 The greater sort crave worldly goods,
and riches do embrace:
But Lord grant us thy countenence,
thy favor and thy grace.
8 For thou thereby shalt make my heart
more joyfull and more glad,
Then thy that of their corne and wine
full great increase have had.
9 In peace therefore lie down will I
taking my rest and sleep:
For thou onely wilt me O Lord,
alone in safety keep.

Now That the daylight fills the sky
Author: John Mason Neale, 1818-66 Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 82 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 4:1-3 Lyrics: 1 Now that the daylight fills the sky,
We lift our hearts to God on high,
That He, in all we do or say,
Would keep us free from harm today;
2 Would guard our hearts and tongues from strife;
From anger's din would shield our life;
From evil sights would turn our eyes,
And close our ears to vanities.
3 So we, when this new day is gone
And night in turn is drawing on,
With conscience by the world unstained
Shall praise His name for vict'ry gained.
4 "All praise to You, creator Lord!
All praise to You, eternal Word!
All praise to You, O Spirit wise!"
We sing as daylight fills the skies.

To Thy happy home above.

Thou didst die that I might live.

Oh, how good Thou art to me!

Thou wilt love me to the end.
Let me love Thee more and more,
Always better than before.
German:
1 Müde bin ich, geh zur Ruh,
Schließe meine Äuglein zu:
Vater, laß die Augen dein
Über meinem Bette sein.
2 Hab ich Unrecht heut getan,
Sieh es, lieber Gott, nicht an.
Deine Gnad und Christi Blut
Macht ja allen Schaden gut.
3 Alle, die mir sind verwandt,
Gott, laß ruhn in deiner Hand;
Alle Menschen groß und klein
Sollen dir befohlen sein.
4 Kranken Herzen sende Ruh,
Nasse Augen schliefße zu.
Laß den Mond am Himmel stehn
Und die stille Walt besehn.

In Thee Is Gladness
Author: Johann Lindemann; Catherine Winkworth Appears in 27 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 4:7 Lyrics: 1 In Thee is gladness
amid all sadness,
Jesus, sunshine of my heart!
By Thee are given
the gifts of heaven,
Thou the true Redeemer art!
Our souls Thou wakest,
our bonds Thou breakest,
Who trusts Thee surely
hath built securely,
He stands forever: Alleluia!
Our hearts are pining
to see Thy shining,
Dying or living,
to Thee are cleaving;
Naught can us sever: Alleluia!
2 If He is ours
we fear no powers,
Not of earth, nor sin, nor death!
He sees and blesses
in worst distresses;
He can change them with a breath!
Wherefore the story
tell of His glory
With heart and voices;
all heav'n rejoices
In Him for ever: Alleluia!
We shout for gladness,
triumph o'er sadness,
Love Him and praise Him
and still shall raise Him
Glad hymns forever: Alleluia! Topics: Christ Refuge Used With Tune: IN DIR IST FREUDE

Now Rest beneath Night's Shadow
Author: Paul Gerhardt, 1607-76 Meter: 7.7.6.7.7.8 Appears in 16 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 4:8 Lyrics: 1 Now rest beneath night's shadow
The woodland, field, and meadow;
The world in slumber lies.
But you, my heart, awaking
And prayer and music making,
Let praise to your Creator rise.
2 The radiant sun has vanished,
Its golden rays are banished
From dark'ning skies of night;
But Christ, the Sun of gladness,
Dispelling all our sadness,
Shines down on us in warmest light.
3 Now all the heav'nly splendor
Breaks forth in starlight tender
From myriad worlds unknown;
And we, this marvel seeing,
Forget our selfish being
For joy of beauty not our own.
4 Lord Jesus, since You love me,
Now spread Your wings above me
And shield me from alarm.
Though Satan would devour me,
Let angel guards sing o'er me:
This child of God shall meet no harm.
5 My loved ones, rest securely,
For God this night will surely
From peril guard your heads.
Sweet slumbers may He send you
And bid His hosts attend you
And through the night watch o'er your beds.
