Trust Through Trials

orchidee



Tune: Franconia

('Blest are the pure in heart')

Psalm 56 parts

*********

Be merciful to me

O God, my enemy

Would swallow me up, for daily

He fights, oppresses me

 

What time I am afraid

I will trust in you staid

In you LORD God I praise your word

Your truth of it I heard

 

In God I have put my

Trust, will not fear what, by

And by what man can do to me

My hope is in you, see

 

You know my wanderings

My tears, troubles, all things

When I call to you, enemy

Shall turn, before you flee

 

You have delivered me

My soul, from death be free

So I walk before you in light

Of the living, clear, bright
