Loving Leadings

Tune: Abridge

('Be thou my guardian and my guide')

**********

Psalm 39 v.4

Lord, make me to know my end, show

Me my days, so I know

That I am weak, frail, but you strong

You guide me all along

 

Psalm 40 v.2

i waited patiently, the Lord

came to me, heard my word

Brought me out from pit, and settled

Me on rock when I called

 

Psalm 40 v.16

Let all that seek you here rejoice

And sing to you, glad voice

Let those who your salvation love

Magnify you above

 

Psalm 41 v.11

By this I know you favour me

You save from enemy

Who triumphs not o'er me, for sure

You defend me e'ermore

 

Psalm 40 v.5

Many, O Lord, your thoughts to me

More than I count they be

I cannot reckon them up all

You raise me if I fall
