Psalm 62: My soul with expectation
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 4 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: My soul with expectation Lyrics:
1My soul with expectation
depends on God indeed;
My strength and my salvation doth
from him alone proceed.
2He only my salvation is,
and my strong rock is he:
He only is my sure defence;
much mov’d I shall not be.
3How long will ye against a man
plot mischief? ye shall all
Be slain; ye as a tott’ring fence
shall be, and bowing wall.
4They only plot to cast him down
from his excellency:
They joy in lies; with mouth they bless,
but they curse inwardly.
5My soul, wait thou with patience
upon thy God alone;
On him dependeth all my hope
and expectation.
6He only my salvation is,
and my strong rock is he;
He only is my sure defence:
I shall not moved be.
7In God my glory placed is,
and my salvation sure;
In God the rock is of my strength,
my refuge most secure.
8Ye people, place your confidence
in him continually;
Before him pour ye out your heart:
God is our refuge high.
9Surely mean men are vanity,
and great men are a lie;
In balance laid, they wholly are
more light than vanity.
10Trust ye not in oppression,
in robb’ry be not vain;
On wealth set not your hearts, when as
increased is your gain.
11God hath it spoken once to me,
yea, this I heard again,
That power to Almighty God
alone doth appertain.
12Yea, mercy also unto thee
belongs, O Lord, alone:
For thou according to his work
rewardest ev’ry one.

My Soul Finds Rest In the Lord God
O God! Thou art my God alone
Author: James Montgomery Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 131 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics:
O God! Thou art my God alone;
Early to Thee my soul shall cry,
A pilgrim in a land unknown,
A thirsty land whose Springs are dry.
Oh! that it were as it hath been,
When, praying in the holy place,
Thy power and glory I have seen,
And mark'd the footsteps of Thy grace!
Yet through this rough and thorny maze,
I follow hard on Thee, my God!
Thine hand unseen upholds my ways,
I safely tread where Thou hast trod.
Thee, in the watches of the night,
When I remember on my bed,
Thy presence makes the darkness light,
Thy guardian wings are round my head.
Better than life itself Thy love,
Dearer than all beside to me;
For whom have I in heaven above,
Or who on earth, compared with Thee?
71
Praise with my heart, my mind, my voice,
For all Thy mercy I will give;
My soul shall still in God rejoice,
My tongue shall bless Thee while I live.

My Soul in Silence Waits for God
In Silence My Soul Is Waiting
Author: Michael Saward, 1932- Meter: 8.7.8.7.8.7 Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 In silence my soul is waiting,
is waiting for God alone;
deliv'rance from him is coming,
my rescuer, fort, and rock.
In silence my soul is waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
2 You set on a man and you beat him,
the pack of you knock him down;
as a tottering wall he staggers,
sub-sides like a sagging fence.
In silence my soul is waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
3 You plot for his undermining,
you slander him with your lies;
you love, with faint praise, to damn him;
sweet tongued, you've a curse-filled heart.
In silence my soul is waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
4 Be silent, my soul, in waiting,
in waiting for God alone;
assurance from him is coming,
my rescuer, fort, and rock.
Be silent, my soul in waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
5 There's safety in God, and honor,
my refuge, my rock, my strength,
so hide in our God, you people,
and pour out your hearts to him.
Be silent, my soul in waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
6 Just puffs of the wind, the people,
great men are illusions, all;
as breath in the air, they're measured,
then weightless they fade away.
Be silent, my soul in waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
7 Don't trust, then, in cruel extortion,
don't plunder, defraud, and steal;
don't set your heart on possessions,
especially if they increase.
Be silent, my soul in waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved.
8 Uniquely, our God has spoken,
of two things I've heard him speak;
he's the source of pow'r and mercy;
to men he repays their deeds.
Be silent, my soul in waiting;
secure, I shall not be moved. Topics: Deliverance; Waiting upon God ; The Christian Life Trust in God Used With Tune: SILENCE

My Soul for Help on God relies
Appears in 23 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 My Soul for Help on God relies,
2 From Him alone my Safety flows;
My Rock, my Health, that strength supplies,
To bear the Shock of all my Foes.
3 How long will ye contrive my Fall,
Which will but hasten on your own!
You'll totter like a bending Wall,
Or Fence of uncemented Stone.
4 To make my envy'd Honours less,
They strive with Lyes, their chief Delight;
For they, tho' with their Mouths they bless,
In private curse with inward Spite.
5,6 But thou, my Soul, on God rely;
On Him alone thy Trust repose:
My Rock, and Health will Strength supply,
To bear the Shock of all my foes.
7 God does His saving Health dispense,
And flowing Blessings daily send;
He is my Fortress and Defence;
On Him my Soul shall still depend.
8 In Him, ye People always trust;
Before his Throne pour out your Hearts;
For God, the Merciful and Just,
His timely Aid to us imparts.
9 The Vulgar fickle are and frail;
The Great dissemble and betray;
And, laid in Truth's impartial Scale,
The lightest Things will both outweigh.
10 Then trust not in oppressive Ways;
By Spoil and Rapine grow not vain;
Nor let your Hearts, if Wealth increase,
Be set too much upon your Gain.
11 For God has oft His Will express'd,
And I this Truth have fully known;
to be of boundless Pow'r possess'd,
Belongs, of Right, to God alone.
12 Though Mercy is His darling Grace,
In which He chiefly takes Delight;
Yet will He all the human Race
According to their Works requite.

My soul with expectation doth
That steward accus'd to his Lord
Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 That steward accus'd to his Lord,
Soon heard that solemn fatal word;
Come quickly give account to me:
Thou can'st no longer steward be.
2 Shew thy account and state thy case:
Thou shalt no longer keep that place--
My goods, to thee I can't intrust,
Since I do hear thou art unjust.
3 On earth as stewards we are plac'd,
Not to neglect, destroy, or waste;
The gifts and graces God doth give,
But to improve them while we live.
4 Before the Lord we must appear,
To answer for our steward-ships here;
We must account to God alone,
For all that we on earth have done.
5 Then let us seek and strive to know,
And humbly ask what we shall do;
To fit us for the time to come
When we must seek another home.
6 The text directs you very plain,
How to this home you may attain;
Pray notice well and understand
The great Jehovah's just command.
7 If you have riches less or more,
And there with help, the helpless poor--
Then may you ever hope to speed,
And find a home when you shall need.

That steward accus'd to his Lord
Truly, my Soul doth wait on God
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1. Truly, my Soul doth wait on God,
Salvation comes from him alone.
2. My Rock, my Safety, high Abode,
He is, I shall not be o'er thrown.
3. How long, against a Man, will ye
Plot Mischief? as a bowing Wall,
Or a loose Fence, you all shall be;
And into sudden Ruin fall.
4. Their great Consult is, to suppress
My Dignity with lying Arts;
If e'er their Mouth is forc'd to bless,
Yet Cursing rages in their Hearts.
5. My Soul wait thou on God alone;
From him my Hopes have stedfast prov'd.
6. My Rock, and Safety, him I own;
My high Tow'r, I shall not be mov'd.
7. In God my Safety is secure.
My future Glory and Renown;
The Rock in whom my Strength is sure,
My Refuge is in God alone.
8. Ye People, in his Pow'r, and Grace,
At all Times your fix'd Trust repose;
Pour out your Hearts before his Face:
God is our Refuge from our Foes.
9. The vulgar are but vain, we know,
And great Men are Deceit, and Lies;
If both you in the Ballance throw,
Lighter than Vanity they rise.
10. Trust not in Methods of Deceit,
Or Violence; be not so vain;
If by just Means your Wealth grows great,
Set not your Heart on such low Gain.
11. Once spoken hath the God of Might,
Twice have I heard this Word aloud;
That boundless Pow'r by sov'rain Right,
Doth appertain alone to God.
12. Not only Pow'r but wondrous Grace,
Also, O Lord, belongs to Thee;
Therefore, to all the human Race,
Thou render'st, as their Works shall be.
Truly, my Soul doth wait on God
A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: Truly my waiting soul on God Lyrics: 1 Truly my waiting soul on GOD
in silent hope relies:
For my salvation wholly does
from Him alone arise.
2 He only my salvation is,
My rock of strength is He;
My only sure defence and tow'r,
mov'd much I shall not be.
3 How long against a man will ye
plot mischief? you shall fall;
For as a tott'ring fence ye are,
and like a bowing wall.
4 To cast him from his dignity,
conspiring they devise;
Bless with their mouth, but curse in heart,
and take delight in lies.
5 My soul wait thou on GOD alone:
my only hope is He;
6 My rock, my saviour, my high tow'r,
I shall not moved be.
7 In GOD alone my glory is,
and my salvation sure:
In GOD the rock of all my strength
my refuge most secure.
8 Ye people, place your confidence
on him continually:
Pour out your hearts before his face:
God is our refuge high.
9 Sure mean men's sons are vanity,
And high men's sons a lie;
When all are in a balance laid,
they rise like vanity.
10 Then trust not in oppressive ways,
by rapine grow not vain;
Nor let your hearts, if wealth increase,
be set on earthly gain.
11 Once spoken hath the mighty GOD,
yea, twice I heard Him loud;
That sov'reign and almighty pow'r
belongs alone to GOD.
12 Yea boundless mercy appertains
to Thee, O Lord, alone;
And Thou according to his work
rewardest ev'ry one.
A Psalm of David
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 62 First Line: Truly my waiting soul relies Lyrics: 1 Truly my waiting soul relies
In silence God upon:
Because from him there doth arise
All my salvation.
2 He only is my rock, and he
Salvation is to me;
And he is my defence that I
Mov'd greatly shall not be.
3 How long against a man will ye
Plot mischief? you shall fall;
And as a tottering fence you be,
And like a bowing wall.
4 His excellence yet to suppress
They counsel do impart,
They lies do love, with mouth they bless,
But curse within their heart. Selah.
5 My soul wait thou on God, and let
My hopes on him abide,
6 My rock and safety he alone,
My tow'r, I shall not slide.
7 On God doth my salvation
And glory make abode.
The rock of my munition,
My refuge is in God.
8 Ye people upon him, O see
You put our trust alway:
Pour out your hearts before him ye;
God is your hopeful stay.
9 Sure base men's sons are vanity,
And high men's sons a lie;
When joyntly they in balance lie;
More light than vanity.
10 In robb'ry be not vain, nor yet
Trust in oppression;
If wealth increase, yet do not set
Your hearts delight thereon.
11 Once spoken hath the God of might
This word once and again
I plainly heard, that powerful might
Doth unto God pertain.
12 Also to thee benignity
O Lord doth appertain:
For even as his work shall be
Thou rendrest man again.
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David
When Christ let his Disciples know
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 3 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 62 Lyrics: 1 When Christ let his Disciples know,
That he should soon depart:
And leave them to this world below--
It griev'd them to their heart.
2 To them he also testified,
What sorrows they would have:
That they should see him crucified,
And laid into the grave.
3 Sure that was more distressing still,
Such words as these to hear;
And much contrary to their will,
That Christ such things should bear.
4 They hop'd a great and better thing,
When first with him they join'd;
They hop'd that he would be their King,
And govern to their mind.
5 God's counsels were to them unknown,
They knew not his decree;
That Jesus should for sin attone,
By dying on the tree.
6 When we first join with Jesus too,
Our hearts are over joy'd;
When we have him no more in view,
Then is our peace destroy'd.
7 Like the Disciples we do mourn,
When Jesus disappears;
Like they we find reproach and scorn,
And many doubts and fears.
8 But our great consolation is:
He will return again--
If we but trust his promises,
Our peace shall still remain.
