Tune: Hawkhurst
('Come gracious Spirit, heavenly dove')
Psalm 33 v.18-22
*********
The eye of the Lord is upon
Them that do fear Him, every one
He looks upon them, they that do
Hope in His mercy ever true
He looks to deliver their soul
From death, preserve them, make them whole
To keep the alive when famine
May strike, and new mercies begin
Our souls waits for the Lord, He is
Our help and shield, our trust is this
For our heart shall in Him rejoice
To His holy name we give voice
We have trusted in His name sure
It be holy for evermore
And trusting still, let your mercy
Be on us, e'en this our hope be

I first posted on this site some 9 years ago almost to the day and during all that time you have consistently been wring and posting these excellent writes - don't know how you manage to maintain the quality and consistency but so glad you do.
Thank you M. I dry up at times - no Berles come to mind! lol.
I love this one Orchi a great hymn for someone like me that needs all the mercy I can get.
Thank you SB. And don't we all?!
Most welcome Orchi
Fine write, Orchi, a bit of mercy goes a long way.
Thank you P. A bit like Tesco then, or whoever first said 'A little goes a long way'?!
Good one Orchi.
