Psalms and Hymns to the Living God ‎#54

54. O Save Me by Thy Name

1 O save me by Thy Name
and judge me in Thy might;
O God, now grant my urgent claim,
acceptance in Thy sight.

2 Strong foes against me rise,
oppressors seek my soul,
who set not God before their eyes,
nor own His just control.

3 Lo, God my Helper is,
The Lord, my mighty Friend;
He shall requite my enemies,
their just destruction send.

4 My sacrifice of praise
to Thee I freely bring;
my thanks, O LORD, to Thee I raise
and of Thy goodness sing.

5 From troubles and from woes
Thou hast delivered me,
the overthrow of all my foes
hast given me to see.
