Tune: Hereford
('O thou who camest from above')
*********
Psalm 42 v.5
Why are you cast down, O my soul?
Why disquieted in me, not whole?
Hope you in God, for I shall yet
Praise Him, I shall Him not forget
Psalm 42 v.5
And He shall not forget me, He
Shall help me in my troubles, see
Shall turn His face, His countenance
To me, I shall His presence sense
Psalm 42 v.11
And hope you in God, my soul here
He your health, shall to you appear
Bring you His salvation, and you
Shall praise Him yet again anew
Psalm 43 v.5
Yes, I shall praise Him, my help He
And constant companion shall be
My health and my salvation sure
O God, you my God evermore
