When Lawless People Thrive
Author: Christopher Idle Meter: 6.6.8.6 D Appears in 1 hymnal Hymnal Title: Christian Worship Lyrics: 1 When lawless people thrive
and wrong suppresses right,
remember they will fade away
and wither overnight.
Commit your life to God,
and trust the LORD to make
the justice of your righteous cause
shine clear for his name's sake.
2 Be still before the LORD;
in patience learn to wait
and never fret if crime succeeds
and some grow rich and great.
For jealous discontent
tends only to destroy;
the meek who look to God their LORD
a kingdom shall enjoy.
3 The godless borrow much
and cannot then pay back;
the righteous give, and give again,
are blessed, and have no lack.
The saints whose lives are true
can turn away from wrong;
God's Word is hidden in their heart,
God's wisdom guides their tongue.
4 I've seen a boasting thief
grow like a weed apace;
but when I passed that way again
I looked, but found no trace.
My steps are from the LORD
who helps my feet to stand.
I stumble but I do not fall;
my God shall hold my hand.
5 Salvation is from God
in times of blatant wrong,
and all who seek his shelter find
a refuge safe and strong.
So fully trust the LORD;
shun evil, follow right:
God gives you all your heart's desire
when he is your delight. Topics: Acrostic Psalms; Affliction; Blessing; Doubt; Endurance; Envy; Mercy; Patience; Perseverance; Rest; Ten Commandments 5th Commandment (You shall not murder); Wisdom Scripture: Psalm 37 Used With Tune: DINBYCH

Small Church Music
Editors: Charles Wesley Description:
The SmallChurchMusic site was launched in 2006, growing out of the requests from those struggling
to provide suitable music for their services and meetings. Rev. Clyde McLennan was ordained in mid
1960’s and was a pastor in many small Australian country areas, and therefore was acutely aware of
this music problem. Having also been trained as a Pipe Organist, recordings on site (which are a subset
of the smallchurchmusic.com site) are all actually played by Clyde, and also include piano and piano
with organ versions. All recordings are in MP3 format.
Churches all around the world use the recordings, with downloads averaging over 60,000 per
month.
The recordings normally have an introduction, several verses and a slowdown on the last verse.
Users are encouraged to use software: Audacity (http://www.audacityteam.org) or Song Surgeon (http://songsurgeon.com) (see http://scm-audacity.weebly.com for more information) to adjust the MP3 number of verses, tempo
and pitch to suit their local needs.
Copyright notice: Rev. Clyde McLennan, performer in this collection, has assigned his performer rights in this collection to Hymnary.org. Non-commercial use of these recordings is permitted. For permission to use them for any other purposes, please contact manager@hymnary.org.
