O Jehovah, Hear My Words

Meter: 7.7.7.7 D Appears in 24 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Jehovah, hear my words, To my thought attentive be; Hear my cry, My King, my God, I will make my prayer to Thee. With the morning light, O Lord, Thou shalt hear my voice arise, And expectant I will bring Prayer as morning sacrifice. 2. Thou, Jehovah, art a God Who delightest not in sin; Evil shall not dwell with Thee, Nor the proud Thy favor win. Evil-doers Thou dost hate, Lying tongues Thou wilt defeat; God abhors the man who loves Violence and base deceit. 3. In the fullness of Thy grace To Thy house I will repair; Bowing toward Thy holy place, In Thy fear will worship there. Lead me in Thy righteousness, Let my foes assail in vain; Lest my feet be turned aside, Make Thy way before me plain. 4. False and faithless are my foes, In their mouth no truth is found; Deadly are the words they speak, All their thoughts with sin abound. Bring, O God, their plans to naught, Hold them guilty in Thy sight, For against Thee and Thy law They have set themselves to fight. 5. O let all that trust Thy care Ever glad and joyful be; Let them joy who love Thy Name, Safely guarded, Lord, by Thee. For a blessing from Thy store To the righteous Thou wilt yield; Thou wilt compass him about With Thy favor as a shield. Topics: The Christian Life Prayer Scripture: Psalm 5 Used With Tune: REHOBOTH

No Longer, Lord, Despise me

Author: Rev. Edward A. Collier Meter: 7.7.6 D Appears in 4 hymnals Lyrics: 1. No longer, Lord, despise me, Nor in Thy wrath chastise me, Thy mercy I implore: How long Thine anger cherish! Consumed thereby I perish; My soul is troubled sore. 2. To me, O Lord, returning, Save Thou, with pity yearning. Shall death Thy mem'ry keep? Or shall the grave confess Thee? Or I give thanks and bless Thee, While day and night I weep? 3. Thro' weeping unavailing My very eyes are failing; But now, depart from me All ye the evil choosing; The Lord, no more refusing, Hath heard my tearful plea. 4. The Lord will ever hear me, And when I pray be near me, To put my foes to shame; Turned back, no more to grieve me, They suddenly shall leave me. All glory to His Name!
