Trusting And Rejoicing

********

Psalm 27 v.1

The LORD, He my light, my salvation

This good news to every nation

Whom shall I fear? He my strength too

In Him I my confidence renew

 

Psalm 27 v.4

One thing of the LORD I have desired

This my longing, this my heart fired

This will I seek, that I may dwell

In His house for ever, of Him tell

 

Psalm 27 v.4

There I may the LORD's beauty behold

Enquire in His temple, His fold

Gathered there His people Him praise

To Him they sing, and Him worship raise

 

Psalm 27 v.14

Wait on th LORD, be of courage good

He shall strengthen your hear and should

Help you, keep you under His wing

Unto Him your thankful offerings bring

 

Psalm 28 v.7

The LORD is my strength, He is my shield

I did trust in Him, to Him yield

My heart in Him trusted, and so

I greatly rejoice, His help I know

 

Psalm 28 v.8

The LORD is His people's strength, we see

And strength of His anointed be

Christ His Son, the true Messiah

He commissioned by His Father sure

 

Psalm 28 v.9

Save your people, LORD, and do them bless

Your inheritance, they confess

You are their LORD, you do them feed

Shepherd, you lift them up, meet their need

        Thanks N. Lines 1 and 4 of the original are the same. I suppose I could have followed that pattern, but have done AABB rhyme. A favourite of mien from Primary School. I won't forget it from our final Assembly there - Oh about 10 million years ago then! Nearly every time I sing it, I get a twinge emotionally - not rheumatically!

      • ANGELA & BRIAN

        BRIAN HERE = GOOD EVENING ~ UNCLR STEVE ~ Love the Hymns we often sing it round an OPEN GRAVE when a Believer has gone to be *Forever with the Lord* AMEN. Thanks for selections from the PSALMS always an uplift !

        Blessings & Joy to You & Misery Mutt !
        Spirit love BRIAN & ANGELA ๐Ÿงก๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™
