Haz resplandecer tu rostro (Make Your Face to Shine)
From Shame and Insult set me free
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31 Lyrics: 1 From Shame and Insult set me free,
For still, O LORD, I trust in thee;
Once more your kind Assistance lend,
Once more thy Servant's Cause defend:
As just and righteous is thy Name,
So let me now thy Favour claim.
2 Bow down, O LORD! thy gracious Ear,
Do thou my stedfast Rock appear;
To me some speedy Succour send,
My Soul for Danger to defend:
Hear thou my Voice, when I complain,
And still my righteous Cause maintain.
3 Since thou'rt my Rock, and Foes oppress,
Oh lead me out of this Distress,
Thy wonted Help, my GOD, impart,
For thou, my Strength and Fortress art:
To thee alone I look for Aid,
To shun the Snares, my Foes have laid.
4 Thou GOD of Mercy, Love and Truth!
Who hast preserv'dst me from my Youth;
My Life, my Soul, and all that's mine,
To thee I willingly resign:
To thee my Soul for Succour flies,
For those I hate, who trust in Lies.
Part II
5 Thy Name, Oh GOD! I'll ever bless,
And still in chearful Songs express,
The Mercies thou to me hast shewn;
For Thou hast seen my straits, and known
What gloomy Sorrows gather round,
What rising Fears my Soul confund.
6 Whene'er thou saw'st my watchful Foes,
Did in their Wiles my Strength enclose,
Thou gav'st my Feet a larger Space,
To fly from all their treach'rous Race;
And shun the secret hidden Snare,
Which for my Soul, they did prepare.
7 Thy Mercy, LORD, again display,
For both my Soul and Flesh decay,
Attend, O GOD, the just Complaint,
Which I, with Grief and Hunger faint,
With feeble Voice to thee address:
Oh hear the Cries of my Distress!
8 Sad Thoughts my drooping Life oppress,
My Sins have made my Strength decrease;
My Years are spent in wasting Groans;
Which e'en consume away my Bones;
My foul Offences, to my View,
Are ever rising fresh and new.
Part III
9 My Foes at all my Suff'rings mock'd,
My Friends at Sight of me were shock'd;
My Neighbours chiefly did upbraid,
They look'd at me as Men dismay'd;
And when they did my Anguish see,
With one Consent they fled from me.
1o Forsook by all my Friends am I,
As one that's dead and out of mind;
And like a shatter'd Vessel lie,
Whose broken Parts can ne'er be join'd;
No one to comfrt me appears,
To ease my Grief or sooth my Cares.
11 Against me sland'rous Words they speak,
Whilst they together Counsel take;
They strive my guiltless Blood to shed,
And yet they seem my Pow'r to dread;
But still my Soul thy Goodness knows,
And will her Hopes on thee repose.
12 Whatever strange Events betide,
Thy Wisdom , LORD! will time them all;
Thy Servant then in Safety hide
From those who daily seek his Fall:
O render all their Malice vain,
Nor let my Foes their Will obtain.
13 The Brightness of thy glorious Face,
To me, O righteous GOD, disclose,
And as thy mercies still increase,
Preserve me from my cruel Foes;
Do thou in Mercy set me free
From those who strive to ruin me.
Part IV
14 Thy Servant from Dishonour save,
Who still hath plac'd his Trust in thee;
Let that, and Silence in the Grave,
The Sinner's wretched Portion be:
Do thou their lying Lips restrain;
Who treat the Just with proud Disdain.
15 How great thy tender Mercies are
To such as fear thy holy Name;
Which, LORD, thou dost for them prepare,
Who spread abroad thy glorious Fame:
The Sons of Men thy Love shalt see,
To those who put their Trust in thee.
16 Thou keep'st them ever in thy Sight,
From all their proud Oppressors free;
From Tongues that do in Strife delight,
They are preserv'd still by thee;
Thy Saints shall find thy Friendship sure,
And in thy Temple rest secure.
17 With Glory and with great Renown.
God's holy Name be ever bless'd;
Whose Love is Keilab's well-fenc'd Town,
To me was wond'rously express'd;
For he was then my Strength and Tow'r,
To guard me from assailing Pow'r.
18 Dismay'd with Fear, in hasty Flight,
I said, "I'm banish'd from thine Eyes;"
Yet still thou keptst me in thy Sight,
And didst accept my earnest Cries;
In Mercy thou didst bend thine Ear,
And listen to my humble Pray'r.
19 O then, let all the Saints, the LORD
With never-ending Love pursue,
Who to the Just will Help afford,
And surely give the Proud their Due:
Courageously on God rely,
Who will your Hearts with Strength supply.

In te Domine
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 31 First Line: O Lord I put my trust in thee Lyrics: 1 O Lord I put my trust in thee,
let nothing work me shame:
As thou art just deliver me,
and set me quite from blame.
2 Heare me O God and that anon,
to help me make good speed:
Be thou my rock and house of stone,
my fence in time of need.
3 For why? as stones thy strength is tri'd,
thou art my fort and tow'er:
For thy Names sake be thou my guide,
and leade me in thy power.
4 Pluck thou my feet out of the snare,
which they for me have laid:
Thou art my strength, and all my care
is for thy mighty aid.
5 Into thy hands Lord I commit
my spirit which is thy due:
Because thou hast redeemed it,
O Lord my God most true.
6 I hate such folk as will not part
from things to be abhor'd:
When they on trifles set their heart,
my trust is in the Lord.
7 For I will in thy mercy joy,
I see it doth excell:
Thou seest when ought would me annoy,
and knowst my soule full well.
8 Thou hast not left me in their hand
that would me over-charge;
But thou hast set me out of band,
to walk abroad at large.
The second Part:
9 Great griefe O Lord, doth me assaile,
some pity on me take:
Mine eyes wax dim, my sight doth faile
my womb for woe doth ake.
10 My life is worn with grief and paine,
my yeares in wo are past:
My strength is gone, & through disdaine
my bones corrupt and wast.
11 Among my foes I am a scorne,
my friends are all dismaid;
My neighbours, and my kinsmen born,
to see me are afraid.
12 As men once dead are out of mind,
so am I now forgot:
As small effect in me they find,
as of a broken pot.
13 I heard the brags of all the rout,
their threats my mind did fray:
How they conspir'd and went about
to take my life away.
14 But Lord I trust in thee for aid,
not to be over-trod;
For I confesse and still have said,
thou art the Lord my God.
15 The length of all my life and age
O Lord, is in thy hand:
Defend me from the wrath and rage
of them that me withstand.
16 To me, thy servant (Lord) expresse
and shew thy joyfull face:
And save me Lord for thy goodnesse,
thy mercy, and thy grace.
The third Part:
17 Lord, let me not be put to blame,
because on thee I call:
But let the wicked beare the shame,
and into their grave fall.
18 O Lord, make dumb their lips outright,
which are addict to lies:
And cruelly with pride and spight
against the just devise.
19 O how great good hast thou in store,
laid up full safe for them
That feare and trust in thee therefore,
before the sonnes of men.
20 Thy presence shall them fence and guide
from all proud brags and wrongs:
Within thy place thou shalt them hide
from all tile strife of tongues.
21 Thanks to the Lord, that hath declar'd
on me his grace so farre:
Me to defend with watch and ward,
as in a town of warre.
22 Thus did I say both day and night,
when I was sore opprest,
Lo I was cleane cast out of sight,
yet heardst thou my request.
23 Ye Saint, love ye the Lord, I say,
the faithfull he doth guide:
And to the proud he doth repay
according to their pride.
24 Be strong and God will stay your heart,
be bold and have a lust:
For sure the Lord will take your part,
sith ye in him do trust.
In te Domine

the darkness deepens; Lord, with me abide:
when other helpers fail, and comforts flee,
help of the helpless, O abide with me.
2 Swift to its close ebbs out life's little day;
earth's joys grow dim, its glories pass away;
change and decay in all around I see;
O thou who changest not, abide with me.
3 I need thy presence every passing hour;
what but thy grace can foil the tempter's power?
Who like thyself my guide and stay can be?
Through cloud and sunshine, Lord, abide with me.
4 I fear no foe with thee at hand to bless;
ills have no weight, and tears no bitterness.
Where is death's sting? Where, grave, thy victory?
I triumph still, if thou abide with me.
5 Hold thou thy cross before my closing eyes;
shine through the gloom, and point me to the skies:
heav'n's morning breaks, and earth's vain shadows flee;
in life, in death, O Lord, abide with me. Topics: Evening; Hope and Consolation; Protection Used With Tune: EVENTIDE
