Abiding Confidence and Hope
Meter: 8.6.8.6 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 71 First Line: Though troubles great o'ershadow me Lyrics: 1 Though troubles great o'ershadow me,
Thou art my refuge strong;
My mouth shall praise Thee all the day,
Thy honor be my song.
2 Cast me not off when hoary age
Becomes my weary lot,
And in the days of failing strength
Do Thou forsake me not.
3 My foes are strong and confident,
For I to them appear
As one forsaken by his God,
With none to help me near.
4 My God, be Thou not far from me,
Make haste to hear my call;
Ashamed, consumed be all my foes,
Dishonored let them fall.
5 But I will ever hope in Thee,
My ceaseless praise is Thine;
I will declare Thy countless deeds
Of truth and grace divine.
6 Yea, I will tell the mighty acts
Performed by God the Lord;
Thy righteousness, and Thine alone,
With praise I will record.
7 For from my early youth, O God,
By Thee have I been taught,
And faithfully have I declared
The wonders Thou hast wrought.

Psalm 71: I Will Sing
In thee I put my steadfast trust
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 71 Lyrics: 1 In thee I put my stedfast Trust,
LORD, let me not be put to Shame;
Incline thine Ear, and save my Soul,
For great and righteous is thy Name:
To thee, for Help I will resort,
For thou art still my Rock and Fort.
2 From cruel and ungodly Men,
Protect my Soul and set me free;
For thou my early Youth till now,
My constant Hope hath been in thee:
Thy Care did safely guard my infant Days,
And brought me forth to sing thy Praise.
3 While some on me with Wonder gaze,
Thy Hand unseen supports me still;
Thy Honour therefore, and thy Praise,
My Mouth with grateful Joy shall fill:
Then cast me not, O LORD, away,
Tho' Strength and Vigour should decay.
4 My Foes against my Fame, and me,
With never ceasing Malice speak;
Against my Soul they lay their Snares,
And mutual Council daily take:
"On GOD, say they, he did rely;
'Now take him whilst no Help is nigh."
5 But thou, my GOD, withdraw not far,
On thee for speedy Help I call;
To Shame and Ruin bring my Foes,
Who seek with Craft to work my Fall:
And I, who still on thee depend,
My Time to come in Praise will spend:
Part II
6 Thy righteous Acts and saving Health,
My Mouth shall evermore declare;
Unable yet to sum them all,
Tho' counted o'er with utmost Care:
LORD, in thy Strength I will go on,
And trust thy Righteousness alone.
7 Thou, Lord, hast taught me from my Youth,
To bless and praise thy glorious Name;
And ever since thy wond'rous Works
Have been with Joy my constant Theme.
On them I will with Pleasure dwell,
And to the world thy Goodness tell.
8 Then now forsake me not, when I
With Age am grey and feeble grown;
'Till I to these and future Times,
Thy Strength and mighty Pow'r have shown,
For I thy Mercy will proclaim,
And spread abroad thy glorious Name.
9 How high thy Justice soars, O GOD!
How very great and wond'rous are
The mighty Works which Thou hast done?
O LORD! who can with Thee compare?
Altho' thy Hand hath me oppress'd,
Yet shall my Woes be all redress'd.
10 Thro' thee, my Time to come, shall be
With growing Pow'r and Greatness crown'd;
And me who dismal Years have past,
Thy lasting comforts shall surround:
Therefore my Harp and Voice I'll raise,
To Jacob's GOD, in Songs of Praise.
11 Then grateful Joy shall fill my Mouth
And chearful Hymns employ my Voice;
My thankful Soul, by thee redeem'd,
Shall in thy Strength and Pow'r rejoice;
My tongue thy Justice shall proclaim,
Because thou brought'st my Foes to Shame, Topics: Prayers Of the Old and Afflicted; Prophecies Prophetical Curses against the Enemies and Persecutors of the Chruch Used With Tune: [In thee I put my stedfast trust]

Jehovah I for safety do
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 71 Lyrics: 1 Jehovah, I for safety do
Betake my self to thee,
Confusion to be put unto
O never suffer me.
2 me rescue in thy righteousness,
Let me deliv'rance have:
O bow thou down thine ear to me,
Also do thou me save.
3 Be thou my habitations fast,
Where I may still resort:
Thou me to save commanded hast,
For thou'rt my rock and fort.
4 My God, from wicked's hand me free,
From fierce hand and unjust.
5 Because thou Lord God art my hope,
And from my youth my trust.
6 Up from the womb thou did'st me stay:
Thou did'st deliver me
Out of my mother's bowels: aye
My praise shall be of thee.
[2]
To many I a wonder am,
But thou my refuge strong.
8 Let with thy praise my mouth be fill'd,
And honour all day long.
9 Unto the time of elder age,
O cast me not away:
And do thou not abandon me
When my strength doth decay.
10 For they that be mine enemies,
Those men against me speak.
Who for my soul lay wait likewise,
Together counsel take.
11 They say God hath forsaken him,
Now persecute him ye:
And apprehend ye him, for none
there is to set him free.
12 O God from me depart not far,
My God to help me haste.
13 Who my soul's adversaries are,
O let them be abash'd.
Yea, let them quite consumed be,
And covered with shame,
With soul disgrace and infamy,
That for my hurt do aim.
[3]
14 Howbeit I with patience still
On thee will waiting be;
And more and more yet add I will
To all the praise of thee.
15 My mouth shall forth thy righteousness,
And thy salvation show
From day to day; for of the same
No numbers do I know.
16 I in the strength of God the Lord,
Will still along go on;
Will thy righteousness record,
Yea even thine alone.
17 From my youth up, O mighty God,
Thou hast instructed me.
I hitherto have shew'd abroad
The wonders wrought by thee.
18 And now also when i am old,
And hoary hair'd, O God,
Forsake me not, till I have told
Thy mighty pow'r abroad,
Unto this genration.
And unto ev'ry one
That shall hereafter be to come,
Thy strong dominion.
19 Also thy righteousness, O God,
Is high exceedingly;
Great are the things that thou hast wrought;
O God, who's like to thee?
[4]
20 Thou who hast caused me to see
Afflictions; great and sore,
Shall turn and quicken me; and me
From depth of th' earth restore.
21 Thou shalt my greatness multiply
And comfort me always.
22 Also with tuned psaltery
I will shew forth thy praise.
O thou my God, sing forth will I
To thee my harp upon:
Thy faithfulness and verity,
O Israel's holy one
23 My lips rejoyce with shouting shall,
When I to thee shall sing:
My soul which free ye shall from thrall
to liberty didst bring.
24 Likewise my tongue shall forth declare
Thy justice all day long:
Because that they confounded are,
And sham'd that seek my wrong.
Jehovah I for safety do

All that we can declare.

Who may with Thee compare;

Up from the Depth of Woe.

For they're disgrac'd, that sought my Hurt,
And brought to endless Shame.

In thee, all-clement God, my hopes I place
Appears in 1 hymnal Scripture: Psalm 71 Lyrics: 1 In thee, all-clement God, my hopes I place;
O never let thy servant know disgrace;
2 But hear; thy kind indulgent mercy shew,
And bid thy justice free me from the foe:
3 My rock, my fortress, my salvation, thou;
Hope of my youth, and object of my vow,
To thee I fly, as to a sure defence,
To thee, blest guardian of my innocence;
Cause thou the schemes of cruel men to fail;
Nor let their efforts 'gainst my peace prevail.
6 To me thy mercies have been always great;
Those mercies oft I gratefully repeat;
How from my birth thy goodness thou hast shewn,
How from my infant-years thou'st led me on.
7 Now of derision I an object prove;
Yet still my certain refuge is thy love;
8 Therefore, while glads the radiant sun the day,
Thine honour I, thy goodness will display.
9 Of impious foes protect me from the rage,
And not forsake me in my feeble age:
10 Constant their secret mischiefs they prepare,
And greatly hope, they shall my life ensnare:
11 "His God denies him aid; he's ours (they cry)
"Now seize him, take him, and the wretch destroy."
12 But thou, O God, thy kind assistance lend,
Baffle their hopes, and my poor soul defend;
13 With vile dishonour and with shame meet they,
To certain ruin who'd my steps betray;
Infatuate thou their schemes, their hearts confound,
Who make it all their joy my soul to wound,
14 For in thy mercy I will ever hope,
I'll praise the bounteous God that rais'd me up;
15 Thy love unmerited I'll daily sing,
And to thy glorious name attune the string;
16 Extol the pow'r, that gives me strength in war,
And thy strict justice faithfullv declare.
17 My youth thou'st guided in tne perfect road,
Nor have I prov'd ungrateful to my God.
18 Now then, when age with all it's ills oppress,
Now not desert me in my deep distress;
That I to nations yet unborn may sing
The pow'r, the mercy, of my heav'nly king.
19 Thy justice, Lord, ascends yon heav'ns above;
O dread creator, who like thee can prove?
20 True; thou didst plunge me in the depths of grief,
But soon thy mercy gave my soul relief:
21 Pow'r, wealth and honour, soon didst thou supply,
And gav'st me peace and happiness t' enjoy.
22 Therefore my psalt'ry and my harp display
Thy truth, O Israels God, from day to day;
23 Therefore my soul, by thee redeem'd from woe,
In ardent praise her gratitude shall shew;
24 Therefore thy righteous acts shall fill my tongue;
The justice of my God my constant song;
Who on my foes did dire destruction pour,
My foes, who sought his servant to devour.
In thee, all-clement God, my hopes I place
