Tune: All through the night
('God that madest earth and heaven')
*********
Psalm 46 v.1
God is our refuge and our strength
Wide is the length
Of His mercies to us daily
Here them now see
A very present help He be
In troubles we turn to Him, He
Will help, come guide and us support
Him we have sought
Psalm 46 v.10-11
Be still, for I am God, this know
It be true so
I will midst heathen exalted
Be, and not hid
In the earth my name shall be raised
For my glory it shall be praised
God the Lord of hosts with us sure
For evermore
Psalm 47 v.7-8
Sing praises to God, sing praises
Through life's phases
Sing praises with understanding
Him worship bring
For God He reigns o'er the nations
O'er all people of all stations
He sits upon His throne holy
Ever will be
Psalm 48 v.12-13
Walk about Zion and rejoice
It is God's choice
City of His habitation
He loves each one
Tell the towers there, the strongholds
Where He gathers sheep to His folds
Consider His palaces there
They beauty share

Very beautiful Orchi
Thanks Blue.
Sprinkled with specks of gold. Very well done! Btw, did you know that Emily Dickinson would mainly write in hymn form?
Thanks Rocky. I didn't know.
Good one Orchi.
