Hymnal: The Psalms of David #49 (1740) Hymnal Title: The Psalms of David First Line: Judge me, O Lord, and prove my Ways Lyrics: 1 Judge me, O Lord, and prove my Ways,
And try my Reigns, and try my Heart;
My Faith upon thy Promise stays,
Nor from thy Law my Feet depart.
2 I hate to walk, I hate to sit
With Men of Vanity and Lies;
The Scoffer and the Hypocrite,
Are the Abhorrence of mine Eyes.
3 Amongst thy Saints will I appear
With Hands well wash'd in Innocence;
But when I stand before thy Bar,
The Blood of Christ is my Defence.
4 I love thy Habitation, Lord,
The Temple where thine Honours dwell;
There shall I hear thine holy Word,
And there thy Works of Wonder tell.
5 Let not my Soul be join'd at last
With Men of Treachery and Blood,
Since I my Days on Earth have past
Among the Saints, and near my GOD. Topics: Examination, or Evidences of Graces; Judgment day; Sincerity; Trial of our hearts Scripture: Psalm 26 Languages: English
