Uplifting Utterance

orchidee



Tune: Marching

(one tune to 'Father, hear the prayer we offer')

Psalm 43 v.3-5

*******

O send out your truth and your light

Let them be clear to my sight

Let them bring me to your temple

There to praise you free and full

 

Then I will to the altar go

To God, my great joy, I know

Upon instruments will praise you

Give you worship, honour due

 

Why are you cast down, O my soul?

Look to the Lord, be made whole

Why you disquieted within me?

Stay not downcast constantly

 

Hope you in God, my soul, for I

Shall yet praise, Him, to Him cry

He the health of my countenance

My God, I His presence sense
