Tune: St Fulbert

('Ye choirs of new Jerusalem')

Psalm 62 parts

************

Truly my soul on God does wait

He shall help me not late

From Him come my salvation sure

Lasting for evermore

 

Help us, O Lord, where distracted

Where away from you led

Matters of life, in everything

May we them to you bring

 

Prayer and practical action go

Together, this we know

But putting you first, not worry

What the outcome shall be

 

In God is my salvation, He

Too sure be my glory

Rock of my strength and refuge, so

His upholding I know

 

Trust in Him at all times, people

Pour out your hearts and call

On Him, lay burdens at His feet

Find consolations sweet

    Trust and mistrust; the first life skill developed. Was it Erich Fromme that formulated that? Beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
