Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice

Meter: 8.8.6 D Appears in 3 hymnals Topics: God Divine Perfections of Lyrics: 1 Ye righteous, in the Lord rejoice; It well becomes the good man's voice To sing Jehovah's praise. With harp and hymn of gladness sing, Your gift of sweetest music bring, To him a new song raise. 2 For upright is Jehovah's word; And all the doings of the Lord In faithfulness are wrought. In justice and in judgment right The Lord doth ever take delight; With goodness earth is fraught. 3 Jehovah's word the heav'ns hath made, And all the host of them arrayed His breath has caused to be. He rolls the waters heap on heap; He stores away the mighty deep In garners of the sea. 4 Let all the earth Jehovah fear, Let all that dwell both far and near In awe before him stand; For, lo, he spake and it was done, And all, his sovereign pow'r begun, Stood fast at his command. 5 He makes the nations' counsels vain, The plans the peoples would maintain Are thwarted by his hand. Jehovah's counsel stands secure, His purposes of heart endure, For evermore they stand. 6 O truly is the nation blessed Whose God, before the world confessed, Jehovah is alone; And blessed the people is whom he Has made his heritage to be, And chosen for his own. Amen. Scripture: Psalm 33:1-12 Used With Tune: FRANCES Text Sources: Compiled from several sources

Without a cause my life they sought, Without a case their plots they laid; Themselves within their snares be caught, And be my crafty foes dismayed. 3 My soul is joyful in the Lord, In His salvation I rejoice; To Him my heart will praise accord And bless His Name with thankful voice. For who, O Lord, is like to Thee, Defender of the poor and meek? The needy Thy salvation see When mighty foes their ruin seek. 4 Unrighteous witnesses have stood And told of crimes beyond belief; Returning evil for my good, They overwhelm my soul with grief. When in affliction they were sad, I wept and made their grief my own; But in my trouble they are glad And strive that I may be o'erthrown. 5 O Lord, how long wilt Thou delay? My soul for Thy salvation waits; My thankfulness I will display Amid the crowds that throng Thy gates. Let not my enemies rejoice And wrongfully exult o'er me; They speak not peace, but lift their voice To trouble those that peaceful be. 6 My foes with joy my woes survey, but Thou, O Lord, hast seen it all; O be no longer far away, Nor silent when on Thee I call. O haste to my deliverance now, O Lord, my righteous cause maintain; My Lord and God alone art Thou; Awake, and make thy justice plain. 7 O Lord my God, I look to Thee, Be Thou my righteous Judge, I pray; Let not my foes exult o'er me And laugh with joy at my dismay. With shame and trouble those requite Who would my righteous cause destroy; But those who in the good delight, Let them be glad and shout for joy. 8 Yea, let the Lord be magnified, Because Thy servants Thou dost bless; And I, from morn till eventide, Will daily praise Thy righteousness. My soul is joyful in the Lord, In His salvation I rejoice; To Him my heart will praise accord And bless His Name with thankful voice. Scripture: Psalm 35 Used With Tune: CATHERINE
