Tune: Lucy
('O Lord of every shining constellation')
Psalm 31 v.14-24 parts
********
I trusted in you, O Lord, I said, You are
My God, my times are in your hand, not far
Are you from me, save me from my enemies
And from they who
And from they who my persecutors be
Make your face to shine here upon your servant
Save me for your mercies sake to me sent
Let me not be ashamed, O Lord, for I have
Called upon you
Called upon you, come help me, come me save
O how great is your goodness, which you have laid
Up for them that fear you, it be strong, staid
You have wrought it for them that trust you before
The sons of men
The sons of men, they have confidence sure
O love the Lord, all you His saints, He preserves
The faithful, and plentiful in reserves
Is He, be of good courage, He shall strengthen
Your heart, all you
Your heart, all you that hope in Him midst men

- Comment from author about the poem: A hymn-poem in 11.10.11.4.10. A tune not used by me before - or at least I can't trace having used it.

A hymn, a poem, a prayer three wrapped into one. This indeed sounds very Old Testament Orchi. Nicely done
