Thyself in hateful cruelty,
When God Almighty is most kind,
And ever merciful is He?
2 Thy tongue deviseth wickedness,
A weapon treacherous and keen;
Thou lovest evil more than good,
And falsehood in thy sight is clean.
3 Since, O thou false, deceitful tongue,
In deadly words Thou findest joy,
The Lord shall pluck thee from thy place
And all thy wickedness destroy.
4 The good, confirmed in godly fear,
The pride and folly shall confess
Of those who make not God their strength,
But trust in wealth and wickedness.
5 I put my trust in God alone,
For evermore I trust His grace,
And like the trees within His courts
I flourish in a favored place.
6 With endless thanks, O Lord, to Thee,
Thy wondrous works will I proclaim,
And in the presence of Thy saints
Will ever hope in Thy good Name. Scripture: Psalm 52 Languages: English Tune Title: LUTON

There is no God of might;
Corrupt are they and base their deeds,
In evil they delight.
2 God looked from heav'n above
On all the human race,
To see if any understood,
If any sought His face.
3 They all are gone aside,
Corruption doth abound;
There is not one that doeth good,
Not even one is found.
4 These men of evil deeds,
Will they no knowledge gain,
Who feed upon my people's woes,
And prayer to God disdain?
5 The day is drawing nigh
When they shall fear and quail,
For God shall scatter and destroy
Those who His saints assail.
6 Yea, God will put to shame
And make them flee away,
For He will cast them off in wrath
And fill them with dismay.
7 O would that Israel's help
Were out of Zion come!
O would that God might early bring
His captive people home!
8 When God from distant lands
His exiled ones shall bring,
His people shall exultant be,
And gladly they shall sing.
Scripture: Psalm 53 Languages: English Tune Title: BADEA

O Lord of Hosts, thy Dwellings are!
With long Desire my Spirit faints
To meet th' Assemblies of thy Saints.
2 My Flesh would rest in thine Abode,
My panting Heart cries out for GOD;
My GOD! my King! why should I be
So far from all my Joys and Thee?
3 The Sparrow chuses where to rest,
And for her Young provides her Nest;
But will my GOD to Sparrows grant
That Pleasure which his Children want?
4 Blest are the Saints who sit on high
Around thy Throne of Majesty;
Thy brightest Glories shine above,
And all their Work is Praise and Love.
5 Blest are the Souls who find a Place
Within the Temple of thy Grace;
There they behold thy gentler Rays,
And seek thy Face, and learn thy Praise.
6 Blest are the Men whose Hearts are set
To find the Way to Sion's Gate;
GOD is their Strength, and thro' the Road
They lean upon their Helper. GOD.
7 Chearful they walk with growing Strength,
'Till all shall meet in Heav'n at length,
'Till all before thy Face appear,
And join in nobler Worship there.
Scripture: Psalm 84 Languages: English

The Joy that from thy Presence springs:
To spend one Day with Thee on Earth
Exceeds a thousand Days of Mirth.
2 Might I enjoy the meanest Place
Within thy House, O GOD of Grace,
Not Tents of Ease, nor Thrones of Pow'r,
Should tempt my Feet to leave thy door.
3 GOD is our sun, he makes our Day;
GOD is our Shield, he guards our Way
From all th' Assaults of Hell and Sin,
From Foes without, and foes within.
4 All needful Grace will GOD bestow,
And crown that Grace with Glory too;
He gives us all Things, and with-holds
No real Good from upright Souls.
5 O GOD, our King, whose sov'reign Sway
The glorious Hosts of Heaven obey,
And Devils at thy Presence flee,
Blest is the Man that trusts in Thee. Scripture: Psalm 84 Languages: English

To which thy GOD resorts!
'Tis Heaven to see his smiling Face,
Though in his earthly Courts.
2 There the great Monarch of the Skies
His saving Pow'r displays,
And Light breaks in upon our Eyes
With kind and quick'ning Rays.
3 With his rich Gifts the heav'nly Dove
Descends and fills the Place,
While Christ reveals his wond'rous Love,
And sheds abroad his Grace.
4 There, mighty GOD, thy Words declare
The Secrets of thy Will;
And still we seek thy Mercy there,
And sing thy Praises still.
Pause.
5 My Heart and Flesh cry out for Thee,
While far from thine Abode;
When shall I tread thy Courts, and see
My Saviour and my GOD.
6 The Sparrow builds herself a Nest,
And suffers no Remove;
O make me, like the Sparrows, blest,
To dwell but where I love.
7 To sit one Day beneath thine Eye,
And hear thy gracious Voice,
Exceeds a whole Eternity
Employ'd in carnal Joys.
8 Lord at thy Threshold I would wait
While JESUS is within,
Rather than fill a Throne of State,
Or live in tents of Sin.
9 Could I command the spacious Land,
And the more boundless Sea,
For one blest Hour at thy Right Hand
I'd give them both away. Scripture: Psalm 84:1-4 Languages: English

How pleasant and how fair
The Dwellings of thy Love,
Thy earthly Temples are:
To thine Abode
My Heart aspires,
With warm Desires
To see my GOD.
2 The Sparrow for her Young
With Pleasure seeks a Nest,
And wand'ring Swallows long
To find their wonted Rest;
My Spirit faints
With equal Zeal
To rise and dwell
Among thy Saints.
3 O happy Souls that pray
Where GOD appoints to hear!
O happy Men that pay
Their constant Service there!
They praise Thee still;
And happy they
That love the Way
To Sion's Hill!
4 They go from Strength to Strength,
Through this dark Vale of Tears,
'Till each arrives at length,
'Till each in Heav'n appears:
O glorious Seat,
When GOD our King
Shall thither bring
Our willing Feet!
Pause.
5 To spend one sacred Day,
Where GOD and Saints abide,
Affords diviner Joy
Than thousand Days beside.
Where GOD resorts,
I love it more
To keep the Door
Than shine in Courts.
6 GOD is our Sun and Shield,
Our Light and our Defence;
With Gifts his Hands are fill'd,
We draw our Blessings thence;
He shall bestow
On Jacob's Race
Peculiar Grace,
And Glory too.
7 The Lord his People loves;
His Hand no Good with-holds
From those his Heart approves,
From pure and pious Souls:
Thrice happy he,
O GOD of Hosts,
Whose Spirit trusts
Alone in Thee. Scripture: Psalm 84 Languages: English
