O Thou Great Shepherd of Thy Chosen Race

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #163 (1934) Meter: 10.10.10.10.10.10 Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 O Thou great Shepherd of Thy chosen race, Who leadest like a flock Thy Israel dear, From out the cherubim reveal Thy face, Before our host now let Thy might appear. Come Thou, O God, to save us and restore; We shall be saved when shines Thy face once more. 2 How long, O Lord, wilt Thou disdain our prayer? For Thou hast fed us with the bread of tears, And bitter sorrow Thou hast made us share; The nations round us mock with scornful jeers. O God of Hosts, Thy people now restore; We shall be saved when shines Thy face once more. 3 A vine Thou broughtest forth from Egypt's land; The nations were thrust out to give it room; It took deep root, it spread on every hand, The hills were covered with its shade and bloom; Its boughs were like great cedars spreading wide; They reached the sea, its roots the riverside. 4 Why hast Thou broken down its circling wall That they may pluck who pass along the way? Wild beasts from out the wood destroy it all And feed upon Thy vine by night and day. O God of hosts, we pray Thee now, restore; We shall be saved when shines Thy face once more. 5 Look down, behold and visit this Thy vine Which Thou hast planted with Thy own right hand, The branch Thou hast made strong and owned as Thine, For it is burned with fire, no more to stand; Thy people perish in Thy anger sore Because Thy face now shines on them no more. 6 O let Thy hand Thy chosen one sustain, The son of man Thou madest strong to be; So we shall faithful to Thy cause remain; Revive Thou us, and we will call on Thee. Jehovah, God of hosts, again restore; We shall be saved when shines Thy face once more. Scripture: Psalm 80 Languages: English Tune Title: LANGRAN

Great Shepherd Who Leadest Thy People in Love

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #164 (1934) Meter: 11.11.11.11 Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 Great Shepherd Who leadest Thy people in love, 'Mid cherubim dwelling, shine Thou from above; In might come and save us, Thy people restore, And we shall be saved when Thy face shines once more. 2 O haste, Lord, to hear us and pity our woes, Affliction our portion, despised by our foes. O Lord God Almighty, in mercy restore, And we shall be saved when Thy face shines once more. 3 A place for Thy people, Thou, Lord, didst prepare, Thy vine deeply rooted rewarded Thy care; Its branches like cedars, majestic and free, Spread over the mountains from river to sea. 4 Thy vineyard no longer Thy tender care knows, Defenseless, the victim and spoil of her foes; O turn, we beseech Thee, all glory is Thine, Look down in Thy mercy and visit Thy vine. 5 The branch of Thy planting is burned and cut down, Brought nigh to destruction because of Thy frown; The man of Thy right hand with wisdom endue, The son of man strengthen Thy pleasure to do. 6 When Thou shalt revive us Thy name we shall praise, And nevermore, turning, depart from Thy ways; O Lord God Almighty, in mercy restore, And we shall be saved when Thy face shines once more. Scripture: Psalm 80 Languages: English Tune Title: CARITAS

O God, No Longer Hold Thy Peace

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #168 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 D Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 O God, no longer hold Thy peace, No longer silent be; Thy enemies lift up their head To fight Thy saints and Thee. Against Thy own, whom Thou dost love, Their craft Thy foes employ; They think to cut Thy people off, Thy Church they would destroy. 2 Thy ancient foes, conspiring still, With one consent agree, And they who with Thy people strive Make war, O God, with Thee. O God, Who in our fathers' time Didst smite our foes and Thine, So smite Thy enemies today Who in their pride combine. 3 Make them like dust and stubble blown Before the whirlwind dire, In terror driven before the storm Of Thy consuming fire. Confound them in their sin till they To Thee for pardon fly, Till in dismay they trembling, own That Thou art God Most High. Scripture: Psalm 83 Languages: English Tune Title: FOREST GREEN

My Soul for Thy Salvation Faints

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #260 (1934) Meter: 8.6.8.6 Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 My soul for Thy salvation faints, But still I hope in Thee; I long to see thy promised help, When Thou shalt comfort me. 2 Thy statues I do not forget, Though wasting grief I know; Thy servant's days are few, O Lord; When wilt Thou judge my foe? 3 The proud, disdainful of Thy law, Entrap me wrongfully; O Thou, Whose law is just and true, Help and deliver me. 4 Almost consumed, yet from Thy law I have not turned away; In lovingkindness give me strength, That I may still obey.

I Have Followed Truth and Justice

Hymnal: Psalter Hymnal (Red) #265 (1934) Meter: 8.7.8.7 D Topics: Persecution Of Believers Lyrics: 1 I have followed truth and justice; Leave me not in deep distress; Be my help and my protection, Let the proud no more oppress. For Thy word and Thy salvation, Lord, my eyes with longing fail; Teach Thy statutes to Thy servants, Let Thy mercy now prevail. 2 I am thine, O give me wisdom, Make me know Thy truth, I pray; Sinners have despised Thy statutes; Now, O Lord, Thy power display. Lord, I love Thy good commandments And esteem them more than gold; All Thy precepts are most righteous; Hating sin, to these I hold. Scripture: Psalm 119 Languages: English Tune Title: ROBINSON
