O Lord, Be Thou My Helper True

Meter: 8.6.6 D Appears in 7 hymnals Lyrics: 1. O Lord, be Thou my helper true, For just and godly men are few; The faithful who can find? From truth and wisdom men depart, With flattering lips and double heart, They speak their evil mind. 2. The lips that speak, the truth to hide, The tongues of arrogance and pride, That boastful words employ, False speaking tongues that boast their might, That own no law, that know no right, Jehovah will destroy. 3. Because the poor are sore oppressed, Because the needy are distressed, And bitter are their cries, The Lord will be their helper strong; To save them from contempt and wrong Jehovah will arise. 4. Jehovah’s promises are sure, His words are true, His words are pure As silver from the flame. Though base men walk on every side, His saints are safe, whate’er betide, Protected by His name. Used With Tune: COLWYN BAY Text Sources: The Psalter (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania: The United Presbyterian Board of Publication, 1912), number 21

Let thousands, yet unborn, Thy sacred name here bless! To Thee, O Lord, all praise to Thee We’ll raise throughout eternity. Used With Tune: ALPHA

O Righteous, in the Lord Rejoice

Meter: 8.6.6 D Appears in 8 hymnals Lyrics: 1 O righteous, in the Lord rejoice; how pleasant that with joyful voice God's saints his name should praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, your gift of sweetest music bring, to him a new song raise. 2 The Lord God from his throne on high looks down with clear and searching eye on all that dwell below. And he that fashioned heart and mind looks ever down on humankind the works of all to know. 3 His eye is on all those who fear; to those who hope, the Lord is near according to his word. Death cannot touch those in his hand, nor trouble conquer in the land; we wait upon the Lord.
