GOD our Shepherd

Appears in 56 hymnals Topics: Temptations escape from them First Line: My Shepherd is the living Lord Lyrics: 1 My Shepherd is the living Lord; Now shall my Wants be well supply'd; His Providence and holy Word Become my Safety and my Guide. 2 In Pastures where Salvation grows He makes me feed, he makes me rest, There living Water gently flows, And all the Food divinely blest. 3 My wand'ring Feet his Ways mistake, But he restores my Soul to Peace, And leads me for his Mercy's Sake, In the fair Paths of Righteousness. 4 Tho' I walk thro' the gloomy Vale Where Death and all its Terrors are, My Heart and Hope shall never fail, For God my Shepherd's with me there. 5 Amidst the Darkness and the Deeps Thou art my Comfort, thou my Stay; Thy Staff supports my feeble steps, Thy Rod directs my doubtful Way. 6 The Sons of Earth, and Sons of Hell Gaze at thy Goodness and repine To see my Table spread so well With living Bread and chearful Wine. 7 [How I rejoice when on my Head Thy Spirit condescends to rest! 'Tis a divine Anointing, shed Like Oil of Gladness at a Feast. 8 Surely the Mercies of the Lord Attend his Houshold all their Days; There will I dwell to hear his Word, To seek his Face, and sing his Praise.] Scripture: Psalm 23

When in the Light of Faith Divine

Appears in 58 hymnals Topics: Temptations of the World Lyrics: 1 When in the Light of Faith Divine We look on Things below, Honour, and Gold, and sensual Joy, How vain and dang'rous too? [2 Honour's a Puff of noisy Breath; Yet Men expose their Blood, And venture everlasting Death, To gain that airy Good. 3 Whilst others starve the nobler Mind, And feed on shining Dust; They rob the Serpent of his food T' indulge a sordid Lust.] 4 The Pleasures that allure our Sense Are dang'rous Snares to Souls; There's but a Drop of flatt'ring Sweet, And dash'd with bitter Bowls. 5 God is mine All-sufficient Good, My Portion and my Choice; In him my vast Desires are fill'd, And all my Pow'rs rejoice. 6 In vain the World accosts my Ear, And tempts my Heart anew; I cannot buy your Bliss so dear, Nor part with Heav'n for you.
