O God, Defender of the Poor

Author: Christopher Idle Hymnal: Psalms for All Seasons #4A (2012) Meter: 8.6.8.6.8.6 Topics: Comfort and Encouragement Lyrics: 1 O God, defender of the poor, have mercy when I pray: you listened to my prayer before-- LORD, hear my prayer today! you listened to my prayer before-- LORD, hear my prayer today! 2 How long will people choose vain things, love empty words and wrong? They scorn to serve the King of kings-- O living God, how long? They scorn to serve the King of kings-- O living God, how long? 3 The saints, O LORD, you set apart by grace to be your own: let sinners tremble, search their hearts, and bow before your throne; let sinners tremble, search their hearts, and bow before your throne. 4 While many pray that you will bless and bring them all they need, unless they long for holiness, their prayers are vain indeed; unless they long for holiness, their prayers are vain indeed. 5 Your light, O LORD, let us receive; your face within us shine, for richer is the joy you give than all their grain and wine; for richer is the joy you give than all their grain and wine. 6 And even when I turn to sleep your blessings still increase, for you alone, O LORD, will keep your child in perfect peace; for you alone, O LORD, will keep your child in perfect peace.

A leaf tossed by the sea

Author: Joy F. Patterson Hymnal: New Hymns of Hope #4 Meter: 6.6.8.6.8.8 Topics: Encouragement Lyrics: 1 A leaf tossed by the sea, my fragile ship of faith is rudderless, and holds no course, turns with each passing wave: as once you walked on Galilee, steady my boat and rescue me. 2 The prayers I try to make fall flightless back to me, imprisoned in the web of self which day by day I weave: as once you freed a madman's soul, break my soul's bonds and make me whole. 3 Christ, help my unbelief, make strong my fearful heart, relieve my need to have control, teach me to trust and wait: as once you died to set us free, come, give new birth, new life to me.
