Deliverance Desires

Tune: Quam Dilecta

('We love the place, O Lord')

Psalm 4 v.6-8

*********

There be many that say

Who will show good today?

LORD, turn to us your face

Inspire us with your grace

 

Lift up the light of your

Countenance, 'tis good sure

Upon us now do shine

With beams of love divine

 

You have put in my heart

Gladness, LORD, ne'er depart

I more glad than they who

Reap the harvest anew

 

I will both lay me down

'Neath your smile, not your frown

Lay down in peace and sleep

For you, LORD, safe me keep
