Trusting Times 2

Tune: Wiltshire

('Through all the changing scenes of life')

Psalm 118 v.4-8

*********

Let them now that do the LORD fear

Say now, for He is near

That His mercy endures for e'er

And in it all may share

 

I called on the LORD in distress

He answered, did me bless

He set me in a large place sure

Me comforts did restore

 

The LORD is on my side, I will

Not fear man's plans for ill

That they would seek to do to me

Safe in the LORD I be

 

The LORD takes my part with those who

Do help me, loyal, true

So I shall see my desire on

They who hate me, each one

 

It is better to trust the LORD

In Him and in His word

Than in man to put confidence

The LORD will help us hence

 

Here middle verse of Bible be*

A centrality, see

By faith our trust will thus prove He

Keeps us eternally

*Psalm 118 v.8
