Hymnal: Scottish Psalter and Paraphrases #P13 (1800) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Hymnal Title: Scottish Psalter and Paraphrases First Line: Help, Lord, because the godly man Lyrics: 1Help, Lord, because the godly man doth daily fade away; And from among the sons of men the faithful do decay. 2Unto his neighbour ev’ry one doth utter vanity: They with a double heart do speak, and lips of flattery. 3God shall cut off all flatt’ring lips, tongues that speak proudly thus, 4We’ll with our tongue prevail, our lips are ours: who’s lord o’er us? 5For poor oppress’d, and for the sighs of needy, rise will I, Saith God, and him in safety set from such as him defy. 6The words of God are words most pure; they be like silver try’d In earthen furnace, seven times that hath been purify’d. 7Lord, thou shalt them preserve and keep for ever from this race. 8On each side walk the wicked, when vile men are high in place.
