Going On In Grace

Tune: St Timothy

('O Holy Ghost, thy people bless')

Psalm 17 v.1-5

**********

Hear a just cause, O Lord, attend

To my prayer, me defend

I pray unfeigned, my plea it true

I bring it now to you

 

Let my vindication come, for

I trust in you here sure

Look on the things that upright be

Justice, equality

 

You have tested my heart, and me

Have searched and it do see

That there no evil way in me

My mouth speaks faithfully

 

Concerning the works of people

Your word is my guide all

To keep me from wrong paths, and true

I shall e'er follow you

 

Hold up my steps in your paths, so

Your right ways I shall know

Keep me, that my footsteps not slip

To serve you deed and lip* (*words)
