Why Do You Stand So Far Away, O LORD?

Hymnal: PsH #10 (1987) Meter: 10.10.10.10 Scripture: Psalm 10 Lyrics: 1 Why do you stand so far away, O LORD? Why do you hide yourself in troubled times? In arrogance the wicked trap the poor; they catch the weak in schemes they have devised. 2 The wicked boast about their hearts' desires; the covetous renounce and spurn the LORD. In pride they see no need to seek for aid; in all their thoughts they say, "There is no God." 3 They prosper and in pride ignore your law; at all their foes they only puff in scorn. Within their hearts they think, "I am secure; throughout my life my happiness is sure." 4 Their mouths are filled with oaths and lies and threats; beneath their tongues are evil thoughts and deeds. They lie in ambush near the village street; the innocent they murder and defeat. 5 The helpless one is crushed and trampled down; another victim falls beneath their might. At heart they think, "God has forgotten this; he hides his face, so he will never see." 6 Arise, O LORD, lift up your hand, O God! Do not forget the helpless and the poor. Why do the wicked proudly scoff at God and say, "He will not call me to account"? 7 O God, you note injustice and distress that you may take it all into your hands. The helpless ones commit themselves to you, for you give help to orphans and the poor. 8 O break the wicked evildoers' arm! Seek out the secret sin they try to hide. The LORD is King through all eternity; all sinful ones will perish from his land. 9 LORD, you will hear the longing of the meek; strengthen their hearts, incline your ear to them. You will defend the orphan and the poor that evil ones may terrify no more.

Author: James E. Seddon Hymnal: PsH #15 (1987) Meter: 7.7.7.7 Scripture: Psalm 15 Lyrics: 1 LORD, who are they that may dwell within the courts of your house? And by what lives do they show they dwell on your holy hill? 2 They lead an incorrupt life and do the thing that is right. They speak the truth from their heart and use not their tongue for harm. 3 They do no wrong to their friends and will not slander their name. They scorn the one who is false but love those who fear the LORD. 4 They stand by what they have vowed, although it be to their hurt. They do not sin with their wealth and will not be swayed with bribes. 5 Now these are they who may dwell within the courts of the LORD. Their lives shall never be moved; they stand in their God, secure.
