A Psalm of David
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27 First Line: The LORD my light and SAFETY is Lyrics: 1 The LORD my light and SAFETY is:
who shall make me dismay'd?
The LORD is of my life the strength:
who shall make me afraid?
2 For when my spiteful enemies
me to devour drew near;
To stumble and fall down at once
by Him they forced were.
3 Against me tho' an host encamp,
my heart undaunted is:
If war against me should arise,
I am secure in this;
4 One thing I asked of the LORD,
which still I will request;
That in the LORD's house all my days
I happily may rest;
That I the beauty of the LORD
may view, and there admire;
And in his holy temple may
continually enquire
5 For He in his pavilion will
me hide in evil days;
In secret of his tent me hide,
And on a rock me raise:
6 Moreover at this time my head
on high shall lifted be,
Above my num'rous enemies,
who round encompass me.
Therefore a sacrifice of joy,
and shouting I will bring
Into his tent; and sing aloud,
praise to JEHOVAH sing.
[2 Part]
7 While with my earnest voice I cry,
me O JEHOVAH hear;
O have Thou mercy upon me,
and to me give thine ear.
8 When Thou to seek thy blessed face,
me kindly dost advise;
Thy blessed face, LORD, I will seek,"
my grateful heart replies."
9 O hide not Thou thy countenance,
away from me therefore;
Thy servant put thou not away
in thy displeasure sore.
My helper Thou hast ever been,
do not from me depart;
Nor me forsake, for Thou the God
of my salvation art.
10 My father and my mother both,
tho' they from me remove;
Yet then the LORD will take me up,
and a kind father prove.
11 JEHOVAH teach Thou me thy way,
and be a guide to me,
In righteous paths, because of those
who watch my faults to see.
12 O give me not up to their will,
who are mine enemies:
Against me rise false witnesses,
who breath out cruelties.
13 I should have fainted, had not I
believ'd that I should see,
Ev'n in the land of living ones
the LORD's benignity.
14 Wait on the LORD, coragious be;
and He will strength afford
To thy faint heart: I say again,
wait still upon the LORD.
A Psalm of David
Whom should I fear, since GOD to me
Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27 Lyrics: 1 Whom should I fear, since GOD to me
Is saving Health and glorious Light;
He is my Strength against my Foes,
What Dangers can my Soul affright?
2 With fierce Intent my Flesh to tear,
When cruel Foes beset me round,
They stumbled, and their haughty Crests
With sudden Ruin struck the Ground.
3 My humble Heart on GOD depends,
And dares with mighty Hosts to cope;
Since he's my Help, in doubtful War,
For certain Conquest I will hope.
4 Henceforth to dwell within his House
My Heart's Desire shall ever be;
To know his Will I'll there resort,
The Beauty of the LORD to see.
5 For there alone my Soul shall find
Sweet Rest, in Times of deep Distress,
And safe as on a Rock, with Joy,
Abide in that secure Recess.
6 Whilst God by his Almighty Pow'r,
My Head o'er all my Foes shall raise;
My Soul Thank-Offerings shall make,
And sing before him Songs of Praise.
Part II
7 Continue, LORD, to hear my Voice,
Whene'er to thee I humbly cry;
In Mercy all my Pray'rs receive,
Nor my sincere Request deny.
8 When thou, O LORD, to seek thy Face,
Dost us most graciously advise,
"Thy glorious Face I'll always seek,"
My grateful Heart with Joy replies.
9 Then hide not thou thy Face from me,
Nor my requests in Wrath reject;
Forsake me not, but Aid afford
to him thou didst so oft protect.
10 Though Friends, and nearest Relatives,
In Troubles, helpless me forsake;
Yet thou, whose Love excels them all,
In Mercy, Care of me will take.
11 Instruct me in thy Ways, O LORD,
In a plain Path do thou me guide;
Lest wicked Men, who watch my Steps,
Rejoice to see me tread aside.
12 LORD, disappoint my cruel Foes,
Lest they obtain their base Desire,
Whose lying Lips and bloody Hands,
Against me unprovok'd conspire.
13 I did believe my future Life,
Should with thy tender Love be crown'd,
Or else my fainting Soul had sunk,
With Sorrows deep encompass'd round.
14 Wait on the LORD, with Patience hope,
And he will timely Aid afford;
Still trust in him, yield not to Fear,
Wait thou, I say, upon the LORD.

O God of Light, May Our Light Shine
Author: Carolyn Winfrey Gillette Meter: 8.8.8.8 Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27:1 Lyrics: O God of light, may our light shine
In ways that serve and honor you.
May we be loving, just and kind,
Proclaiming Christ in all we do.
God, where your people are oppressed
And where they cry out in despair,
Make us your light—to heal, to bless—
A witness, Lord, that you are there.
Christ, when your way is pushed aside
By those who trust in wealth and might,
Make us your lamps that we may guide
A searching world to your love’s light.
O Spirit, in this world of doubt,
We often sin and drift away.
When our own faith is flickering out,
Shine on our path and light our way.

O God of Light, May Our Light Shine
Dominus illuminatio
Author: J. H. Appears in 2 hymnals Scripture: Psalm 27 First Line: The Lord is both my health & light Lyrics: 1 The Lord is both my health & light,
shall man make me dismaid?
Sith God doth give me strength & might,
why should I be afraid?
2 While that my foes with all their strength
began with me to brawll:
Thinking to eate me up, at length
themselves have caught the fall.
3 Though they in camp against me lie,
my heart is not afraid:
In battell pight if they will try,
I trust in God for aid.
4 One thing of God I do require,
that he will not deny:
For which I pray and will desire,
till he to me apply.
5 That I within his holy place
my life throughout may dwell:
To see the beauty of his face,
and view his Temple well.
6 In time of dread he shall me hide,
within his place most pure:
And keep me secret by his side,
as on a rock most sure.
7 At length I know the Lord's good grace
shall make me strong and stout:
My foes to foile and cleane deface,
that compasse me about.
8 Therefore within his house will I
give sacrifice of praise:
With Psalmes and songs I will apply
to laud the Lord alwaies.
The second Part:
9 Lord heare the voice of my complaint,
for which to thee I call:
Have mercy Lord on me opprest,
and send me help witall.
10 My heart doth knowledge unto thee,
I sue to have thy grace:
Then seek my face, saist thou to me,
Lord I will seek thy face.
11 In wrath turn not thy face away,
nor suffer me to slide:
Thou art my help still to this day,
be still my God and guide.
12 My parents both their sonne forsook,
and cast me off at large:
E'en then the Lord himselfe yet took
of me the cure and charge.
13 Teach me O Lord the way to thee,
and lead me on forth right:
For feare of such as watch for me,
to trap me if they might.
14 Do not betake me to the will
of them that be my foes;
For they surmise against me still
false witnesse to depose.
15 My heart would faint but that in me
this hope is fixed fast:
The Lord Gods good grace shall I see
in life that aye shall last.
16 Trust still in God, whose whole thou art,
his will abide thou must:
He shall ease and strength thy heart
if thou in him do trust.

since 'tis my God that leadeth me. [Refrain]

when by thy grace the victory's won,
e'en death's cold wave I will not flee,
since God through Jordan leadeth me. [Refrain]
