God our support and comfort; or, Deliverance from temptation and persecution

Hymnal: PCSC1791 #192 (1791) First Line: Who will arise and plead my right Lyrics: 1 Who will arise and plead my right Against my num'rous foes; While earth and hell their force unite, And all my hopes oppose. 2 Had not the Lord, my rock, my help, Sustain'd my fainting head, My life had now in silence dwelt, My soul amongst the dead. 3 "Alas! my sliding feet!" I cry'd, Thy promise bore me up; Thy grace stood constant by my side, And rais'd my sinking hope. 4 While multitudes of mournful thoughts Within my bosom roll, Thy boundless love forgives my faults, Thy comforts cheer my soul. 5 Powers of iniquity may rise, And frame pernicious laws; But God my refuge rules the skies, He will defend my cause. 6 Let malice vent her rage aloud, Let bold blasphemers scoff; The Lord our God shall judge the proud, And cut the sinners off. Scripture: Psalm 94:16-23 Languages: English

A Psalm before prayer

Hymnal: PCSC1791 #193 (1791) First Line: Sing to the Lord Jehovah's name Lyrics: 1 Sing to the Lord Jehovah's name, And in his strength rejoice; When his salvation is our theme, Exalted be our voice. 2 With thanks approach his awful sight, And psalms of honour sing; The Lord's a God of boundless might, The whole creation's king. 3 Let princes hear, let angels know, How mean their natures seem, Those gods on high and gods below, When once compar'd with him. 4 Earth, with its caverns dark and deep, Lies in his spacious hand; He fix'd the seas what bounds to keep, And where the hills must stand. 5 Come, and with humble souls adore, Come, kneel before his face; Oh may the creatures of his power Be children of his grace. 6 Now is the time, he bends his ear, And waits for your request; Come, lest he rouze his wrath and swear, "Ye shall not see my rest." Scripture: Psalm 95 Languages: English

"Forget my power, abuse my love; "Since they despise my rest, I swear, "Their feet shall never enter there." [6 Look back, my soul, with holy dread, And view those ancient rebels dead; Attend the offer'd grace to-day, Nor lose the blessings by delay. 7 Seize the kind promise while it waits, And march to Zion’s heavenly gates; Believe, and take the promis'd rest; Obey, and be forever bless'd.] Scripture: Psalm 95:1-3 Languages: English
